The only video in maybe the last year i stopped watching the other video i was in the middle of and watched this one. I need to know what to do before anybody else gets in on it!
Haha thank you so much for watching! These tips should get you started in the prep mindset. Expect a more “specific” prep guide for the first week or so of TWW as we get closer to launch!
Regarding levelling alts, it'll be even faster to level them in a few weeks once the 11.0 prepatch drops, since the XP required to get to 70 is practically being halved. I imagine going 10-70 in the last few weeks of remix could be done in under 1.5 hours in that case, if you're already prepared with a level 12 cloak.
Thanks Penguin, love your enthusiasm, I've been off and on player since BC, always broke, changing my mindset slowly slowly, enjoying the game a lot more these days, glad I was recommended your channel.
Thanks for the video. It was very helpful as always. I will be expecting the alt army video as I have 24 alts and 18 of them are already level 70. Related to leveling alts, I would like to add that is not very difficult to ilevel the alts near 500 with bullions, sparks and crest. After I complete the weekly LFR, I choose the 6 tokens of merit instead of any loot and I exchange that for a Nascent Wyrm´s Awakened Crest. I confirm the high ilevel is a great investment of time as I experience the beta next expansion and it was very easy to level up with one of my alts at 486 ilevel.
My usual gold preparation for a new expansion is just play the game and forcing myself not to change my transmog 3x per day a few months before it comes out 😂
Depends on what blizz decides to do… if it’s like DF, you’ll need to hit max level on one toon and then your alts will get access to all profession KP quests, etc.
if you have already farmed up rep on a character do not farm it up on an alt. In WW prelaunch all your toons will have the same DF rep so it's a waste of time.
Yay new Penguin video ! One thing i woud love to see it's a profession spread through alts video and the logic behind it, i'm terrible with planning and optimizing and i'm sure big goldmakers like yourself have a smarter way to pick professions for each alt
I used to love grinding gold in WoW, but work and life just makes it not possible anymore. As a returning player I just want to make enough gold to buy a WoW token to try out the War Within. I don't know how people grind gold to where they are in the millions, blows my mind.
I completely understand not being able to play as much (I’m in that position myself), but there are still plenty of ways to play a minimum amount of time and still make a ton of gold. Of course if you are just starting, you will likely have a slower start due to playing less, but it’s not impossible. Start small, diversify your stock and you will make your millions. No gold buying necessary
if you have 10-20k gold you should not thinking about investing gold in start of any expansion. You invest the money you can afford to lose. not if you only have 20k.
The Starter zone gear was actually removed in 9.1.5 (shadowlands)… that gear has just been sitting in my bank for that long lol. In 10.0.5 they actually brought the gear back to a vendor as well. So nothing to invest in!
An actual practical guide as opposed to do all the shit you already should have done, like titles and all that. I just came back to retail after a full run of classic and had lots of stuff to sell off from older xpacs, and am now levelling toons as I am still unsure what I will main.
@@Penguinr2gtand i didnt really say it, but thank you for a more practical guide. Listened to some of your other videos on my 5 hour drive and i appreciate your style. Much more down to earth and useful for those not so sweaty players.
boring video she said and i am all exited about all you xplain here jajaja 1 i always forget to clear my quest list and bags (wont happen again) 2 i always end up with tons of mats never used, i will leave a few just in case some items sell for good gold (like mog ones). 3 i am way to exited for cross realm sells, i have my mains in Quel'thalas and i tend to full max my profesion and collect as much recipes as posible, chief Penguin if you could see what awesome recipes i have with my tailor and (specially) with my blacksmith, i have some really rare stuff and am dying to start selling some of them!!! 4 I was starting to get my relams alts to max lv thanks to Pandaremix but got some weird issues, i cannot log in any of my remix characters, the game freez and i have to force it close but i can log in the retail characters with 0 problems :/ hope i get this fixx as soon as posible Thanks for another great video chief Penguin!
Early access will definitely be beneficial if you want the first day 1 sales, but you can still easily make gold without it. Remember not everyone has early access, so plenty of new players entering on normal release day. Also mat prices are always insane the first day and exponentially crash within the first 12-24 hrs
I haven't played for a few years and will come back to the war within. Can I prepare my professions already or do I basically start over in the new expansion? Haven't really looked into the new system at all.
Speaking of time/gold onvestment I would say it is not worth grind dragonflight reputation right now. With the new expansion, the reputation of dragonflight will become warband reputation and you will have most of the reputation on all your alts. Might be better to focus on something else
To my knowledge, there’s no ETA on when legacy/DF rep will turn account wide…unless new patch notes state otherwise. If they are instantly account wide, that’s awesome!! If not, I would still take the time to get your recipes now since there’s no ETA and that’s potential gold down the drain! Thanks for watching anakinti!!
Haha it would have definitely been nice to remember them! Thankfully I’m still selling legos as transmog to this day… will probably just hold them and slowly sell them off 💰
I’m guessing that’ll reduce the amount of gold for people to make if patterns become easily accessed for the first few weeks they are actually profitable
For someone who spent all his gold to buy the extension + mount bc he's stupid + poor lol :p is there any easy way to farm some gold for the upcoming extension ? xD doing pve content will be hellish with no potions/flasks etc 🙃 tho i have many alts " to farm mounts ", i should dedicate more time for professions for each of them -_-'
Look into old world professions! There’s a ton of easy, trainer learned recipes that sell really well (and most of the old world professions are pretty cheap to level). I’d recommend checking out my recent beginner old world video! You got this!
@@Penguinr2gtso like I can farm multiple battered hilts on one character then put them all in my warbank and take them out on characters across different realms to sell them?
Hello! i have some questions that MIGHT..u know the answers.. 1)will we have shared reputations witth our warbands? 2)do i max out my proffesion in dragonflight? or it is ok to have it arround 70 level and some points on speciallization tab of the proffesion..? i dont know if new proffesions will be getting in the war within new points.. new start. :>
Hey! To my knowledge, only TWW rep will be account-wide at the start of the expansion. Eventually legacy/DF reps will become account-wide too but theres no ETA. TWW professions are completely separate from DF ones - no need to max those out unless you want to craft DF items
Some have said that Dragonflight rep is becoming account wide in pre patch! (I could very easily have missed that in patch notes) If that’s the case, you can hold off on farming your Dragonflight rep!
I will point out that you're kind of wrong (depends on where you on in your gold making) when it comes to stockpile. Think about the materials that are heavily farmed atm because players are currently active, ore, cloth and awakens. Sure the first 2-3 months they won't be as needed, but just think about if you stockpile those mats now. Later when people need that stuff, they're not gonna be on the auction house as cheap. Back in Wrath, I stockpile cloth buying them at 24s or less, same with ore buying stacks of 20 for 5 gold. Most Wrath ore go for 5 gold each now even with the regionwide auction house now. So I recommend stockpiling key materials that you can get cheap that you can hold on to for a few months. I wouldn't just sell off your dragonflight stuff just because.
Everything comes down to your circumstance... if you got a lot of raw gold and only a small portion of gold caught up in mats, sure keep them if you want, but dont have all your gold caught up in old items at the start of an expansion - you need that to buy new ones
Do NOT!! I REPEAT! DO NOT! waste your time farming out dragonflight reputation! Almost all of the reputation will be account wide with exceptions of the winterpelt furbolgs. So if you need a recipe from the 6 major factions on an alt, you will be able to buy that coming prepatch.

Great point! If you don’t wanna level now, you can definitely hold off for prepatch bonuses!
@@Penguinr2gt MOP remix leveling is under 2 hours atm if you know the trick with dungeon grinding
Thanks Penguin, love your enthusiasm, I've been off and on player since BC, always broke, changing my mindset slowly slowly, enjoying the game a lot more these days, glad I was recommended your channel.
Thanks so much for giving me a chance and I'm glad you enjoyed it! Good luck with your goldmaking!
She lives!!! You have been away forever.
I’m alive!!!!
Prospect the kyparite and make tomes of illusion-that would be a lot of tomes though! Great video as always!
We will see what I decide to do!! Maybe we need to bring back the prospecting streams….
AYO thats right!!! i totally forgot about the tomes! thanks a lot for that tip man!
I like how you say Ghould :D

those gem clusters are tough to find. The best way I have made a ton of gold is farming outlands ore and motes on my engineer. Great vid.
Thanks for watching! The clusters are definitely a pain. Im glad ore/motes are treating you well!
My usual gold preparation for a new expansion is just play the game and forcing myself not to change my transmog 3x per day a few months before it comes out 😂
Im late to this since Ive been busy with college and taking a break from WOW, but Ill always come back to it. Thank you for the video, Penguin!
Hope you are doing well! Thank you for taking the time to watch the vids!
heyy penguin i was wondering if you’re gonna talk about how to maximize the 3 day early access in terms of gold making for those who have it
Closer to launch I am planning a step-by-step "What I recommend to do on Launch day" sort of vid!
Do alts need to be max level in order to be able to get profession cooldowns?
Depends on what blizz decides to do… if it’s like DF, you’ll need to hit max level on one toon and then your alts will get access to all profession KP quests, etc.
if you have already farmed up rep on a character do not farm it up on an alt. In WW prelaunch all your toons will have the same DF rep so it's a waste of time.

Thanks for watching Caliii! I can definitely add a “my goldmaking setup/plan” type section in my upcoming TWW videos, thank you for the suggestion!
Great video, thank you very much 🙏 allot of things that may seem obvious but it really is things that allot of us don’t think of doing.
Thank you for watching!!
so excited to hear you voice and gold making preparation. Have a beautiful day

Most people buy gold; not from Blizzard. The others have tons of time on their hand to play the AH.

@@thirtysilver33definitely not “most” people lmao. Maybe your friend circle tho
Whats the population of your realm you re selling items ?
Thank you for doing those prep videos, your profession videos back before df were super helpful - looking forward to them for war within =)
They will be coming soon!
I miss the shadowlands mission table
what addon is it that shows historical price? like the one at the start of the video about reagents
TSM! (TradeSkillMaster)
@@Penguinr2gt at 3.47* Is that tsm too?
No, that screenshot is from a website called undermine.exchange
Glad to be back!
Boring makes us rich. Great suggestions as always Penguin!
Haha thanks so much for watching!
I got 40 mils gold combined all my alts I just hope it enough 😊
You got this!
if you have 10-20k gold you should not thinking about investing gold in start of any expansion. You invest the money you can afford to lose. not if you only have 20k.
With 20k, you can still craft basic items like bags once prices fall after the first few hours - or go gathering!
@@Penguinr2gt yes your own crafting yes I agree. I thought you ment investing in AH and buy in hope of prize raising.
Your renown will carry over from previous expansions in TWW, so if you have a char that has the renown you do not need to farm it now
Does anyone know if they are locking professions for the early access?
No, professions won’t be locked
@2:20 you mention them removing items from the starter zone, where did you get this info? also is it worth investing into if true??
The Starter zone gear was actually removed in 9.1.5 (shadowlands)… that gear has just been sitting in my bank for that long lol. In 10.0.5 they actually brought the gear back to a vendor as well. So nothing to invest in!
@@Penguinr2gt ahh makes sense, ty for the quick response ;D
Tufts and sinew are probably going to skyrocket.
Can level 70s do the tailoring and alchemy cooldowns or do you have to level them all?
An actual practical guide as opposed to do all the shit you already should have done, like titles and all that. I just came back to retail after a full run of classic and had lots of stuff to sell off from older xpacs, and am now levelling toons as I am still unsure what I will main.
Welcome back to Retail! I hope TWW treats you well!
@@Penguinr2gtand i didnt really say it, but thank you for a more practical guide. Listened to some of your other videos on my 5 hour drive and i appreciate your style. Much more down to earth and useful for those not so sweaty players.
Im glad you were able to get value out of them and I really appreciate you giving my videos a shot. Hope to see you again!
boring video she said and i am all exited about all you xplain here jajaja
1 i always forget to clear my quest list and bags (wont happen again)
2 i always end up with tons of mats never used, i will leave a few just in case some items sell for good gold (like mog ones).
3 i am way to exited for cross realm sells, i have my mains in Quel'thalas and i tend to full max my profesion and collect as much recipes as posible, chief Penguin if you could see what awesome recipes i have with my tailor and (specially) with my blacksmith, i have some really rare stuff and am dying to start selling some of them!!!
4 I was starting to get my relams alts to max lv thanks to Pandaremix but got some weird issues, i cannot log in any of my remix characters, the game freez and i have to force it close but i can log in the retail characters with 0 problems :/ hope i get this fixx as soon as posible
Thanks for another great video chief Penguin!
Thanks so much for watching! Sounds like you got a nice plan. I hope the panda remix issues get fixed for you soon!
Nice Video :)
Pre-ordering TWW is almost necessary if you want to be competitive, right? Because of the 3 day earlier access... i hate it :(
Early access will definitely be beneficial if you want the first day 1 sales, but you can still easily make gold without it. Remember not everyone has early access, so plenty of new players entering on normal release day. Also mat prices are always insane the first day and exponentially crash within the first 12-24 hrs
I haven't played for a few years and will come back to the war within. Can I prepare my professions already or do I basically start over in the new expansion? Haven't really looked into the new system at all.
All expansions are independent, so you’ll need to wait for the TWW to start the new ones!
What is that mog you're wearing in the beginning of the video?
You can buy it with Marks www.wowhead.com/item-set=-911/grievous-gladiators-ironskin
@@Penguinr2gt thank you! 🙏🏾

I like the vids but never finish them.. hardly get time to play.. nevermind 20mins+ vids to watch
Don’t expect you to listen all in one sitting! You can also throw me up on your second monitor hahaha. Thanks for watching!
Oh man! All those SL leggos! That many were probably worth a few million gold the first week of the grey\white transmog change 😮
Haha it would have definitely been nice to remember them! Thankfully I’m still selling legos as transmog to this day… will probably just hold them and slowly sell them off 💰
Are profession gear gonna be immediately replaced? Or is my dragonflight stuff gonna still be useful for a while?
DF tools have no affect on TWW ones. You’ll need to immediately buy/make the green tools then upgrade to blue again
You are all welcome for tip 1! im the mug that found a few thousand glowspoor in a guildbank i skipped cleaning out on stream the other day XD
I feel your pain! I may or may not be known for storing thousands of chickens wings and linen cloth in mine...
Great video. How did you set up your chat window it looks really clean. What addon do you use ?
It’s called Glass! (LS: Glass is the one you should download as someone else has taken over the addon after the main dev stopped playing wow)
I needed this motivation to log into my main and auction/vendor all the mats in my bags and bank.
ty lol x_x
haha you got this!
I made a ton of easy gold off skinning cobra skins with my alt army thanks to your video on it!
That’s awesome!!
What professions are the best together to reduce the amount of times you need to log out?
Depends on the type of goldmaking you like/want to do
Account wide rep comes with the prepatch! So alts can go recipes off old stuff too
I’m guessing that’ll reduce the amount of gold for people to make if patterns become easily accessed for the first few weeks they are actually profitable

I'm remarkably sure you will able to only pass Warbound items between characters on different servers.
