50 Gold per HOUR - Rogue Pickpocketing BRD guide
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- This guide shows how to do lockpicking in BRD for gold, once you got the route on lockdown and figure out the bosses you'll be making at the baseline 35 possibly even 60 gold/hour if you get some lucky drops. You do need a little bit of gear for the first boss, you can decide to skip this boss, though that will set you down some gold/hour

wow i am soooooo rich after this thank you so much guzu :)
Zero use of Death Rolls!
It is for Classic I think. DA.
@SteadyChasin MoneyBags
Then it would just be extremely easy. You still need that RNG danger.
Are you now ... I need 80 g for the lvl 40 mount !
Can’t you come up with some smart way to solo kill Angerforge for trinket farm. Awesome guide btw!
Imagine making a pick pocketing video and calling it "lock picking" the whole way through haha either way great video. Thumbs up!
I kept messing it up, just said fuck it at the end LOL.. thanks alot tho man!
a few notes:
- if you have mining you can check the first circular room at the start of BRD for dark iron nodes, you can mine these without pulling any mob
- you can kill the patrolling fire elementals without using any cd and they have a 10% chance of dropping essence of fire
- put the grim guzzler key up in the AH for 1g, sometimes someone buys it for some stupid reason
Very true, thats actually a good footnote
I used to do this run in vanilla. If your having trouble with the bosses you can stack some fire Resist gear or use a potion
why did i watch that, im a fcking warrior
Terrawan lol. I feel u. Im a priest but just curious 😂
same, watched it all.
I don't even play wow classic dude. lmao
@@hossermes hahahah
wl here xD
lockpicking those humanoids so efficiently
Just came back to watch this to feel a sense of nostalgia.
“unless you run inside the mob because you’re so high”
I feel personally attacked
Thank you for an updated guide for WoW Classic. Only had Pserver runs til now.
@SteadyChasin MoneyBags in what way?
Except... you can? I have yet to have an issue with vanish.
Just used Vanish for 8 hours of farming BRD last night. I've had a few bad vanish batches earlier in my leveling (which happened in vanilla too), but never anything like in that video.
The other issues are negligible, never seen the gouge one, and the CS one is actually beneficial, if not inconsistent.
Point being, it's about as buggy as vanilla was, but nothing we can't work around until they decide to make some tweaks. I agree, feign is broken. I stopped playing my hunter because of it.
In vanilla and now classic, every 8 mins mobs reset their inventory, meaning you can pickpocket them again.
So if you just ignore bosses, you can keep circling around pickpocketing, without need for an alt or a reset.
I use the following macro to not have to tab target, lazy mode basically.
#show
/targetenemy
/Cast Pick Pocket
/cleartarget
eatadickgoogle+ yes but each pickpocket averages about 3s
The bosses have a chance to drop fiery enchant and a blue drop 1g-4g item faster money considering you kill them successfully
@@Andy-wb4qm You forget hickory pipes and food, they stack... and they stack fast, on average i gain about 30-40g an hour with a minimum of effort.
1 problem with this run. If you DON'T hit that lock there is a jump skip you can do when you go out of the window (right where the locked door would be) enabling you to get over the door without hitting the lock. Now here is why this is important. After you have finished the quest inside the bar from the Succubus woman (The quest she gives you), you can tell her to go somewhere private with the dwarf guy, this will then open the Bar door. After killing the bartender, you then walk out the bar door, jump down to where Incendius is, then make your way BACK towards the front of the instance, and since you didn't hit the lock, the massive gate will be OPEN. This enables you to pickpocket MANY easy packs on the way out, right to the front of the instance. No need to have an alt in party, you can reset the instance yourself.
based
There are some spots you missed. You might wanna heart this so other rogues can get this tip as well, this is all stuff I learned from private servers when grinding for my epic mount.
The main route you’ve done works out well, but you skip some valuable spots especially down where the giant boss is, that entire hallway is filled with mobs you can pickpocket.
You can avoid the dogs that see you through stealth quite easily since the hallway is so wide, none of the dogs are close enough to the humanoids to aggro, and on top of that if you’re mining and engineering you can grab up to 2 dark iron nodes per run, which can net you up to one dark iron bar per run maximum. Reason I say engineering is cause you need the mind control helmet to distract one pack of mobs in order to mine one of the nodes, then you’ll have to vanish. The other node is behind a pack of dogs which you can easily kill since theyre non elite.
NOTE: Theres also a chance that, once you get gear, you can take on the fire elemental boss that you come across in a lava run. On the private server I was on I could only barely beat him with consumes popped, but with better gear it’ll probably be possible. You can technically also kill the chick that drops the prison cell key, but its not worth weaving through the dog packs to try and kill her, plus its a waste of time since you can’t pickpocket there.
Lastly, if you can open the door behind the grim guzzler, theres some easy-to-grab mobs in that area. Just pickpocket those ones then log out reset for a little bit of extra gold per run.
Try incorporating this strat into your runs, you’ll make a bit more gold than what was shown in this guide, ESPECIALLY factoring in mining some juicy dark iron. Also, on your way to BRD, theres some world dark iron spawns in the twilight encampment to the west of thorium point, and one to the east of the entrance to blackrock mountain. If they’re up, grab those too.
T1 set bonus for vanish works really well for this, once you get it your death chances per run will be greatly reduced. If you have it, equip it, even if you have better gear you should still wear it. You can also do this with dagger spec, but keep in mind you probably wont be killing bosses as fast and smooth until you get some really decent purps. Perditions blade and core hound tooth will really suit you well, though there are few lower level alternatives. Its highly recommended to just go sword spec and use dal rends, atleast until you get decent daggers.
Fair warning: not worth if your not subtlety. master of deception, stealth speed, improved sap, and prep are all things that push this over the edge to make it worthwhile. Resists are a real issue. Most often its 1-3 resists per run. Side note: vanish in classic doesn't seem to be 100% occasionally will be knocked back out by pursuing mobs even when running away and stopattack macrod into vanish. This can be especially tilting. Setting up an alt to group with doesn't save you time as far as I can tell as you can run out of the instance in roughly 2 minutes. The gold per hour varies greatly as the creator mentions but 50g average is slightly exaggerated. With all that said, thank you to Guzu, this is a viable and efficient way to farm gold.
Having trouble trying to dps the first boss down... any tips?
get better gear
3:34
You dont need to vanish, just jump up on the ledge above fire brazier.
You will eventually get out of combat if you stand behind pillar.
Save the vanish for pickpocket resists
I had a good run, although being dagger spec I really struggled with killing the bosses and gave up - I'm specced to open with ambush and for max damage should always be behind my target, and my stealth also breaks after my first sap. This made killing the first boss extremely hard because the sap breaking my stealth means I have no opener now, and not enough time to burn the boss before I can vanish. Just a heads up for other dagger rogues; it's significantly easier when you're sword spec.
I also am in mostly all pre-BiS with a few epic items.
you just need proper daggers, also please never spec to daggers with blues. very bad
I have no idea why I watch all these gold guides. I haven't played in something like eight years and unfortunately have no time to commit. But somehow I keep watching g these.
You can extend the run by dropping down to Incendius and going to vault, pickpocket on the way. Check the AH if relic coffer keys are cheap and buy them up. You can kill the warden and potentially get a dark coffer key (if he spawns in a reasonable spot). This is probably a bit more lucrative if the relic coffer keys are reasonable.
what is a low price on coffer keys? I see them at AH for 30-60 silver each
Any way to fight the resists? Im getting so many resists and i end up dying way more than id like to because of it
I feel like ive been getting a lot of resists lately....im sub spec and everything....i wonder if it is based off hit rating
Im glad i saw how to kill the Barman gnome without using Greater shadow protection potions ! THank you so much!
I found out if your unable to kill the bosses, you still make at least 7g from pickpocketing every mob he tells you to, so don't feel like your not gunna make enough gold to justify the run if your not able to kill either boss. Ive been doing this run unable to kite, and kill the wizard, and every now and again being able to kill the first boss, and before i sell the loot from the boss, i always check my gold, and ive made at least 7g each time, thats not counting the extra Silver and junk from the lockboxes your gunna get. Most the time you'll walk out with at least 6 to 7 lockboxes.
Did they buff the first boss or something? I literally cannot solo him anymore.
comparing to what? private servers ?
Do you have a pve rotation for the spec you are using on this video. I want to stay on this spec and being able to also run dungeons. But can't find a rotation any where.
-Should I keep slice and dice up at all times?
-Should I be casting rupture at all?
-I should only use hemorrhage to build combo points or should I use sinester strike?
Edit: thank you and nice video
In case you didn't notice subtetly has a finishing move dance because you have a chance to get a combo point and 25 energy return.
Basically in dungeons garrote the target (ull get in most cases 2 combo points) hemo, ghost strike then bam eviscerate and in most cases you will get a combo point tick and if ur lucky 25 energy return then right away hemo then bam slice n dice then hemo 2 times and ghost strike then bam again eviscerate and so on... you can even include rupture into the rotation.
Look how far youve come!! Good for you Guzu!!!
I've tried this about 3 times now and it's so hit and miss for me. The best I've done was about 40g, but this last run I got multiple resists and ended up dying a couple of times. RNGeezus does not like me.
Fun fact- shadow reflector bounces Spazzring's shadow bolts back at him :) Assuming the flame deflector works on the immolates
yo, i've been doing this brd pickpocket farm for more than two months and i have a doubt: sometimes in the pyromancer fight i sap the right mob and when i start the fight the mob wakes up for no reason. I mean, i don't have any cleave and that happens, idk why. i've been thinking that it's a sap bug, but it rarely happens
Did this get nerfed, I get resisted so much I haven't even had a successful run to the first boss
i been doing this for weeks and i didnt know the trick about the beer to pull out the adds, i just simple kill them while i tank the boss with evasion and blade flurry, much easier now
I have a question, Is this Rogue Pickpocketing run is still good, since last year? I have not played wow in a long time.
Guzu, which Macro do I have to use to auto loot everything when picking pockets ? Thanka
Here's a macro for auto pickpocket that doesn't require you to have autoloot on - i personally hate autoloot. Works in classic.
#showtooltip Pick Pocket
/console autoLootDefault 1
/cast Pick Pocket
/run C_Timer.After(2,function() SetCVar("autoLootDefault",0) end)
Hi, do you have a link to your weakaura settings? Thanks!
Guzu is the kind of person who would punch himself in the face and ask people why the world is so harsh.
Much respect my man. You did it with, some, no help. Proud of you. Great decision to not do the duel challenge. Noth the content and you life are better.
Okay, so for those not aware let me write down the issues with this method not mentioned in the video:
• The pickpocket resist percentage is high, about 10-15 %.
• Mobs can resist your Vanish ability and keep hitting you.
• Sap can sometimes only last 1-2 seconds.
• Blind can sometimes only last 1-2 seconds.
• Fiery Weapon and the Cables are vendortrash so the actual gold making rate is closer to 25-45 gold/hr.
@john m
I wrote wrong; today I did 1000 pps and got 89 resists. Still higher than what wiki or your comment would imply.
Hey Guzu, what is the energy ticker add-on you have there? Been trying to find one.
He made it using Weak Auras 2 addon.
Damn this is the first video of yours that i watched. Its been 2 years :D I watched you play your rogue, then dwarf female warrior then badush(best name imo :D) the dranei shaman now i watch your orc shaman. Glad to see you grow. Keep up the good work man, much love :D
Great video!!! Can't wait to try this out!
Quick question though, I can't make nugenergy work, and it's killing me. What addon are you using for energy ticks?
I'm using Nugenergy, you need to go into the interface > addons and configure it as you like
I've been thinking about making a video or post showing myself doing it, I go in naked except for shirt and white main hand and never kill or fight anything, i wish yours showed some sped up but otherwise unedited video of you doing this for a solid hour or so, PP can be super RNG I get double resisted fairly often and end up just waiting the 3 minutes for vanish(going off to a corner to open boxes) but I make 20-25g an hour easy without ever leaving or resetting the instance and that's not counting selling stacks(roughly 5 stacks an hour) of sup healing pots which go for around 35s-60s depending on the market
im so happy that i got to see this, if this is true, when i have my pre raid bis(almost there) no one is going to catch me outside the raid until i have my mount
@SteadyChasin MoneyBags elaborate?
100% 30 gold per hour VERY GOOD sPOt)
Great guide. Macro I use for instant pickpocket without having to target

Please make this series into a 'Playlist'. You are off to a good start.
+10000 for a honest title! A nice round sum between 35 and 60, well done!
What's the reason for using crippling poison?
so they don't run away into other mobs to aggro more mobs that your not wanting.
Lockpicking in BRD = 250+
Amazing guide can't wait to use it once 60!
If you are freshly dinged with shit gear, you can still pickpocket your way to Spazzring (that gnome vendor) and kill him since he spends most of the fight by casting which you will LOS and thus take 0 damage. I would rather sit in OG/ST and flip AH instead if I were you since that is more usually g/h but it is still a profitable something you can do quickly while you are waiting for your group to gather for LBRS/UBRS or even BRD (but do not forget to reset the instance ofc. :D)
Now combine this with a dark keeper/coffer run:)
Thanks so much Guzu! the first boss dropped a fricking Freezing Band for me, i got rich overnight, thank you alot! :D
btw the jumper cables can be bought at the goblin vendor in hillsbrad foothills
these are XL jumper cables i believe, not the lesser version
Dodge agane , Dodge agane , you got lucky there GUZU !
How does this spec perform in dungeons and for questing ? I am 58 lvl at the moment with the standard combat swords spec and for the foreseeable future I am bound to be doing quests and dungeon farms.
doing that is the exact reason why i play wow... don't need anyone, very safe and thrilling. ty for great video!!! 👍
Grab the addon faster auto loot. It removes the window and makes looting even faster. Also grab a pickpocket macro. Google it, there are mouse over ones or what I use which is a clear target one and more grab whatever you like. Hell with the right nameplate addon you can track what mobs you've pickpocketed already.
name of the addon that shows your cs / sap / blind / slice and dice / sprint duration in the right side of the screen?
Its called WeakAura, I made my own string you can use if you want: wago.io/ihDi27Gmo
@@Guzutv thank u thank u :D
Love the video! Very clear explanation.
One thing though, has blizzard said anything about the logout/teleport thing? I really want to try this but I am too paranoid about getting banned or suspended 😅
People have been doing this dungeon reset method since vanilla wow basically, it's not an exploit dont worry!
@@Guzutv Thanks for the reply!
I did end up finding out that simply walking back is slightly faster though, you can do the walk back to the start in just over 2 minutes with the minor speed enchant ^^
@@noodlewraff Yeah but does that reset the instance?
@@keel65413 You can just reset all instances when you get out
promote alt to leader, log over reset instance log back in on main, your welcome.
HEY WHATSUP GUYS GUZU HERE
LOL

Payo = Legend. Poggers in the chat ofc (i am thinking of telling my community about your legend vids ;))
@@AetrixGaming thanks ofc ;))
Lockpick the ga-nome. Hahahahhahaa. You been gnomed
This is why I'm casual...I willl never do this, perhaps one time or so, but every repeating instance grind I die inside...cool info though.
Leatrix isnt working for me.
you can make a macro to auto-lockpick all your boxes (and meanwhile do something else).
Also about every 1000th box you should get an epic weapon (this is all I remeber from doing exactly this back in ~2006)
I've heard this but after spending a solid week farming 800g in brd I have yet to see one, I'm hemo spec, go in with a white crappy 1h and naked, make about 20-25g in just gold and vendor trash
Blizzard have patched this it seems Everytime I aggro plugger he walks off to get ads and keeps walking off till he gets more.It happens everytime
no just be sure to come out from behind the wall the second his spell casting is done. i had this problem at first too. you just have to LOS his spells and the SECOND he stop casting you walk out so he can see you again
@@Derateo tried that Once LOS his cast he walks to the rest of the patrons and just keeps walking back and forth till they aggro.
Vanish doesn't work. Ever. Was quite dissappointed to learn this upon reaching 60. It works against 1-2 mobs (what you encounter 99% of the time while just leveling) but not against 3 plus which is basically how many you'll have on you any time pickpocket resists in here.
I use this macro so i never have to click a single dude, and also right before the first boss you kill you are able to jump up on the ledge and clear combat if one resists near there !

What's the name of the addon that shows the timer for sap next to your character? Great video!
Its called WeakAuras, you can make and costumize it so it looks like you prefer!
omg i love you, i subscribed and liked. I'm only 35 right now, but when I hit 60 i will definitely be doing this. I love the freedom a rogue has.
"Freedom" hiding in the shadows
@@aaron5222 Better than my warrior's freedom of dying.
@@popovicititus operator error
IT's better not to kill the grim guzzler boss, go out the back door and continue. you can then sprint jump vanish across to the part where the vault is and open all of them up for more gold if you have keys or buy some keys off ah.
Nice video, thanks! Whats addon is showing sap duration? 3:14
I thought it would be very boring to do, but it's not that bad. Props for mentioning raid consumables too, so many people slack on them :D
the /reset instances macro isn't working? so you don'\t have to wait and just login back?
What is the add-on to visually see the cast bar on the Plugger Spazzing 9.22
hi, can you please explain how you don't get resisted from pickpocket.
i have done 6 runs now and i get resisted too often end up not making it to final boss without dying
even with preparation and 2 vanishes.
they resist way too often
what is the add on where you can see enemy casting something? it can really handy when i want to get my kick right
What addon you use at 12:28 so that it actually shows your sprint / buffs?
Great video btw
great guide, don't know why I watched it as a mage tho lmao
Why I cannot kite him? he casts shadow bold, I hide behind corner, he then runs to folks and they are now all on me. Tried like 5 times without luck.
ok, I just facetanked him, no need to run away
LVLing up my rouge for farming, but... I somehow got second epic mount already... On my Warlock I got it pretty ez, I lvled him not so fast, lost 2 weeks cause I got sick, but managed to be one of first lvl 60. I got herbolism and I did black lotus every night. Go all around winterspring, fly Silitis, Tp storm fly to burnings, fly to plaguelands, then all again. It was stable 3 lotus per hour. Then I did the wuest with a help for 1 lotus and 10g. Then was doing it again. Pretty ez. Holding 800g now. 80 on bank alt. 80 on rogue. Donno where to spend all of it...
This is a good guide, thank you! However, it should be noted that it's not as straight forward as this video shows.. Sometimes the mobs resist, causing you to pop vanish. Once that is on quite a hefty cool down, you either 1. Wait for it to be usable again which I assume would reduce the gold/hr, or 2. carry on pick pocketing, which sometimes they can resist again at which point you are screwed if your vanish is on CD still. If you do it the second way, you will die now and then...
Can someone explain how to get back into the window or back to where you were if you use the jump out of the window trick?
Can you also post a video demonstrating how to flame Garcia properly? You are the master in that respect and I admire you
Did pickpocket get nerfed or something? I'm getting tons of resist...
it got nerfed (more resist, less money), and they did not fix vanish. screw blizz !
@@4ska wow... terrible. Thx man.
Great guide.. Im lvl 46 and currently farming SM but ill definitely will do this.. 1 thing i Just dont get..so With this alt party thing.. You dont even have to go outside the dungeon? Or how it works? You have to re-enter the instance?
You make your alt reset instance.
Great video. Keep pumping out more rogue videos :D
My biggest question is, what's the crippling for in the main hand? Like i've done it before for times where id need to kite a little but theres really no room to do that anywhere in here.
Thanks alot for the guide, my bags are literally ALWAYS full when I play my rogue
If say you have the succubus peacefully open the back door before you kill the bartender is it worth it to go further in for a few more pickpockets up till the Seven?
This is current live right? Not footage from a private server?
This is done on current Classic WOW servers yes
Thank you so much for your guides. My bots have made so much gold that I have enough to buy them kingsfalls from GDKPs. Thanks a ton man!
This is definitely not as good as it is being made out to be. First off, the mobs resist pickpocket a lot, I am a subtlety spec so I have Preparation as a safety net, even then, I still am often left just staring at the computer screen waiting for my cooldowns to finish. Last night it took me over a half hour to pickpocket the arena portion by itself because every other mob was resisting. This guide also fails to mention that there is a very prevalent bug that causes mobs to ignore vanish and keep attacking you anyway, this bug DESTROYS the run completely when it happens, and it happens a lot.
I'd say i'm close to full pre raid Bis with a few raid pieces as well, and i'm having trouble with the bosses. I am combat sword spec so im not sure if my spec is hurting me in killing these guys.
I just dinged 60 and i can do both with 1 prebis. But usually have to use a pot, but i find plenty of those pickpocketing
@@fiskeven How do you consistently kill the first boss without dying?
Guzu can you show the addon and how to set that up that show how long blind last?
What addons do you use to see the life bar and when does it launch the power?
Whats the respawn loot time? I was few minutes afk and I looted these humanoid again lol.
Btw, nice guide thx dude ;)
Great video Guzu!
How much HP do you have and what are your weapons? You must be somewhat geared for this.
I tried jumping back through the window but it doesnt seem possible
how do you group up with your alt on the same account?
have a friend join ur group and relog ur alt, then have him in that one aswell
Guzu thank you I was just wondering this lol
Great video! Question: What addon is that tracking your energy ticks??
Nug Energy
Got a skull flame shield and a gut ripper same day in a lockbox u get from mobs
I've been punished so many times for killing the first boss and having a resist later. Seems a lot riskier if you're not spec'd into subtlety. Should I just be skipping the first boss if I'm combat spec?
