Also, although quite late, something some people tend to not care too much about are the gold world quests and dragon courses quests. No this also isn't going to make you millions but, if you have a couple of alts you usually play with just go around doing those world quests since, as of right now, there is 11k gold avaiable for gold world quests alone + (x) amount from the dragon riding ones which give 500g each. You do those every couple of days when they reset on your alts, and it will add up
One thing i learned from TSM is that i didn't start making real gold until i started making smaller sales in large numbers. 15 to 50 gold per sale adds up surprisingly fast.
Exactly! I’d rather small consistent gold than volatile “high ticket” items. But. That’s just me. Some people have amazing success with those big items.
Yeah these smaller sales adds up super quick. I sales alot of smaller sales from transmog, mats, rep items etc. But I also have some hight ticket items on AH, like transmog, battle pets, patterns etc. The hight price items dont sale the often for me, but it is a nice uptick when a hight price do sell. I also have some crafted transmog on AH. And I also do some vendor flipping, buying some stuff really cheap from vendors and posting them on AH, I have made around 24k profit from doing that (over time ofcause), I also do some raw gold some time and ofcause mats farms. And I am thinking about starting make some old school potions alchemy like potion of treasure finding and post them on AH, to expan abit more.
The thing I like for consistent gold farm are aldor and scryer rep items. Marks of surgery's are 5g a pop and the green items for both aldor and cryer are fetching about 40g a pop right now. Not hard to farm if you got a spot or two either. Between vendor trash, random other drops and raw gold you can make a decent chunk of change in an hour just going back to TBC
Only 5 minutes in and I love you so much!! :D I've also been playing for 16 years now (on and off, mostly on xD, currenly taking a break) and I can't stop repeating what you've said in the first 5 minutes to EVERYONE I have an argument about making money with high value/low sale rate items such as transmogs. Most people treat the value in their loot appraiser farm window as "gold made within the time they farmed" rather then what it actually is - "the maximum potential gold you could theoretically make IF everything sells, EVENTUALLY"... It's fine to have some big price things too, but I rely mostly on consistent steady smaller earners that sell faster and treat any such jackpots as a bonus if they sell. Like a monthly bonus reward or something. xD My absolute favorite farm ever was in early Legion, in frontt of Darkheart, where the flowers are. Kill the flower mobs, herb them, also collect nearby herbs and repeat. At that point I randomly discovered this farm on my own. It wasn't popular at all. It was so good. Always making money, never having to s top and wait for respawns or anything. And it was satisfying too. A year later it got popular, and still it felt like a very short popularity span as a month after I could go and farm with no competition what so ever. But the money at that point weren't the same as in the beginning of the xpac. Potion of luck farms were also something I loved, but they were super popular anyways. The flower thing was kinda nishe.
This is my 17th year in this game, it's all I play. I appreciate the honesty of your video. Here's what I've found works the best for me and how I have made a little over 16mill in the last 5 years. Max out as many garrisons to lvl 3 and farm the minion of Grumpus mount. If you don't have an alt army this won't work since they decreased the drop rate but I use 50 lvl 3 garrisons and avg 20 mounts each December. Stockpile them and sell them throughout the year. I average 1-3 sold per month for 350-550K each(If you play on multiple servers send the merry supplies to your main server, they are account-bound). Farm the mount from Noble Garden, it's simple, those are much easier to get but only sell for 20-40K Keep the auction house loaded with transmog, battle pets, patterns and materials. People will always pay for work they don't want to do. One thing that has made me 100K per month since BFA is leveling gear. People love making alts craft the pieces that arent' heirlooms, belts, gloves, boots, and bracers. Alt creation will always be a thing. I have also made over a million per year selling battle pets. If you treat gold-making like real life, create a plan, and don't put all your eggs in one basket you will be set.
The best money making/saving option of the Garrison has never been the mine, the garden or mount farms. It's the Level 2 Smithy with a follower assigned. 4 hour buff for 0 durability loss unless you die (that can be refreshed at any point by just talking to the assigned follower in the Smithy again) has saved me literally millions of gold over the years. Takes maybe 2k to set up on any character but is infinitely worth it. Folks don't think about repair costs, but 60-100g on a consistent basis adds up fast. And yes the Song of the Anvil Buff (the relevant one of the 2 buffs the follower grants when talking to them) works in every zone and expansion as well as inside dungeons and raids.
Thank you, great video. Don't think you mentioned it, but the one thing I'd add about transmogs is that they are worth it once you have a collection of at least 1-2 thousand quality pieces. Also, TSM or some similar addon is a must for posting these.
Very honest video. In short my advice. fast small amount of gold for gems, enchants, consumables, just to be able to play game while having everything you need for it. N1 thing to do is Gathering professions- Herbalism>skinning, mining is also an option but sometimes it is a bit booring since you have to run in caves or underwater and nobody likes that I m sure. NO you wont make millions of gold in 22 minutes as gold guides say out there but YES you will have almost guaranteed 99% income from those sources, enough to keep you in line with others and enjoy game at its full. Raw materials have always been in demand and will always be, so you wont need to wait for 15 months in hope to sell a tmog that costs 5m gold. Besides raw materials, Alchemy is the best profession in my opinion since most of wow player base does pve and everyone who is competetive or maybe wants to compensate his/her lack of gear or maybe even game knowledge will always have with them flasks and potions in order to maximise their performance dps/healing or even tanking wise. Hope this will help at least some of you fellow gamers out there. Happy hunting.
Huge fact drop here! Great video. I would also add that the big gold making channels actually kill gold making in most instances. Once a thousand people are on a farm they will undercut for fast sells until the farm is worthless. When they claim it’s 100k an hour what they mean is that it was three months ago when only a handful of people knew about it.
The number one thing no gold farmer video will ever tell you is that the fastest way to make gold is to reset markets and commodities in particular. Problem is of course that you can also lose a lot of gold fast which means you need a huge stack of gold to start with to cover losses! Reducing these losses requires a lot of research, experience and regular monitoring of the AH bearing in mind that the AH is very much a PvP activity. Planning, practice, persistence and most of all patience is the key to success and none of these truths are helpful when trying to sell gold-making videos! Your frankness, honesty and practical approach for new goblins is however refreshing! :D
"The number one thing no gold farmer video will ever tell you is that the fastest way to make gold is to reset markets and commodities in particular." That works with inefficient markets. What people talking about that never seem to mention is a) other sellers and/or seller for value into the market or b) the goods don't sell at the reduced price. I feel like that it is a good idea that probably works over the long run but I've never seen any actual data supporting this strategy.
@@archvaldor It is a risky strategy and your points are well taken. Before I try it I always monitor the specific market for several weeks beforehand and use the Undermine Exchange to do the same over the whole region. Even then more sellers will always appear as they level up their professions and Blizzard can always intervene in various unpredictable ways so it's not a guaranteed strategy. When it works though - WoW! :D (btw I should also say that I never gamble more than 3% of my total gold at a time on any commodity and right now in this AH lull they are motivated by an anticipated price rise when future patches launch especially 10.2. BoE resets imo are now too risky since the new gear upgrade system was introduced.)
You are so right! I make most of my gold from materials. I do have a transmog bank toon, that sells nothing but transmog. I do make money every day from that, but not the way I do with mats. Depending on my committment to farming mats, I can make 10K-50K per day. An easy farm is the Firelands trash farm in cata using a treasure finding potion. Take a skinner and the potion and go. Everything I farmed this weekend, has already sold.
"I'd rather take a small win every day than hope for a big win every couple of months" that's how I managed to farm enough gold for the token, I don't even pay for the game anymore, I just drop 5k gold from farms here and there and I'm constantly looking for new items, new reagents, doing wq, these small bits are my focus. Here in Brazil we have a saying: de grão em grão, a galinha enche o papo (grain by grain, the chicken will fill it's belly).
What hardly any goldfarmer doesn't take into account, is scaling the gold making! Just like with a real business. When you only play on one server you are basically boxing yourself in. Capping how much you personally can make in short and long amounts of time. If a pattern is 40k on your server but 2k on Argent Dawn, I don't hesitate to get it on my 2nd account to trade it over. if you do this with 500 different items you are literally getting rich sleeping. I only farm tradegoods as filler. It's about 5-10% of the weekly income. Always have the mindset "I made 100k today, how can I make 200k tomorrow with less time played." Some examples of fast sellers for crossrealm are: Tomes of Illusion, SL mogs like Shadowghast, Toys and full Emerald Dream sets like the Autumn Druid and Harvest Guardian set.
One correction here is that dual boxing is not a bannable offense. You can still multibox just fine. You just cannot use any third party programs to mimic your keybinds IE, press one button to cast a spell and all accounts casting the same spell. That isn't allowed , but multiboxing without any programs is fine.
The point : nobody tells you her secred gold making trick becorse they dont want share it its 100% truh ..... back in the day in 2008/2009 in woltk i got 2 realy great gold makings one farm and on flip ... the farm was the spiders and bats at zul drak NW of the Agentumwatch .....skinen there was the best spot in woltk and its still today the best spot for farmin woltk skining ..... the flip was just make low rings with juwy and diss them .... craft cost for the rings back in day was 2-2,6g each ...diss mats was 6-8g ..... i made goldcap with 8 chars and 8 privat gildbanks with that trick back in days .... the flip still is makebal , but its just a time kill and no i got rich thing today .....
All good advice, though only thing better than gathering is playing the AH. Study a few items and how they move, especially around reset. Buy them up and make some money. Don't try to make a million in one shot, be happy making 50k or 100k each time and make sure to limit your exposure.
Plain and simple the best method of gold making is selling in game runs for gold. Nothing comes close to comparing. Been selling runs since WoD, back in the Flex raid days; I can't even count how many characters I've gold capped at this point.
One thing I want to mention here is that a subscription is $15 a month and the cost of a WoW token is 328,980 gold. So if a person made $15 an hour at their irl job it would take 1 hour of their time to pay for a sub. So for a gold farm to be faster a person would have to be pulling in 330k-ish gold per hour. I don't see that happening, though, which is why for me the main reason to farm gold is to buy items from vendors and maybe some items from the AH. Actually I wouldn't mind having 10M gold in case I ever see the Brutosaur AH mount on the BMAH because I missed out on that in BfA. Anyways $15 a month seems like a fairly cheap price for the amount of hours I spend playing each month.
I love BOTS, when they dump I capitalize. I play the long haul game. It’s slow but works for me. I also enjoy owning certain markets which in turn gets good enough sells to feed my greed. Every once in a while weird things happen in the game and you gotta take advantage of the situations, like the duping epidemic of the TCG pets and remember flipping and selling guilds.. I enjoy new voices and new opinions in our small field of gold workers.. thanks for the morning commute video
Agreed, i have been playing this game since original vanilla and can tell you mats always sell, and in a fairly quick time too. Transmogs usually take weeks or months to offload and usually you won't get the price you targeted it the first place. Transmog farming is good if you have the time to wait for weeks or months on end, but most people want gold as soon as possible to pay for their subs as they often play from month to month and gold is their only way of keep playing, no steady gold could quite possibly mean no sub for you that month. Plus you can't just farm gold all the time, there is other things to do. And now days in Dragonflight where one WQ gives you 600-900+ gold is farming transmogs even worth it? Im not sure. People see small gold numbers on say ores or herbs and think its not worth picking up. The key is in the quantity, often people will buy in bulk, thousands of ore at once not just one or two because they are making multiple crafts to flip that mats cost and then sell. But honestly professions, especially current ones are usually not that profitable either because of oversaturated market or the value of mats themselves being higher then the item and no one wants to craft at a profit loss. Bottom line, mats has always been and will be the way to go, plus raw gold from quests and killing mobs for that extra bit of gold
I have followed a few videos, and gone after SOME transmog. But I've been on and off since TBC in '07, and mats are your friend. I'm pulling down 6k on a normal 1-hr run. I got about 50k a week momentum, and could do a bit more without much more time. But It can't hurt to have a few of these mogs in your AH, I've got like 40 or so with values between 700k and 1500g. It's nice to hit a boost to the gold here and there as a couple sell, as long as there's just a low number to maintain.
I found Studen to be really frank about transmog. he doesn't say it will sell quickly, in fact he flat out tells you it won't, but it's worth having up on the AH. Personally, I prefer raw gold farms. so back in the day, I use to solo old raids and vendor the epics and gets 1000's of gold that way, but then the following expansion they nerfed the gold that old raid epics vendor for. I haven't played retail since Shadowlands and I probably won't. I'm currently playing season of discovery and making gold there is also fun if you know where to go. Personally, like I said, I prefer raw gold, so killing basilisks in STV and vendoring everything is probably my best bet. everything else involves selling things on the AH. in legion, I farmed ore and sold it to buy for my WoW subscription and it worked great, the ores were going for 20-30 gold each at the time so it was a gold mine and it sold quickly. I think that was the best gold farm I've ever done and it was really easy on my guardian druid as Guardian tanks were really good back then.
Thank you for sharing your wisdom and tips ! I actually noticed this recently as a video when up for something I was already farming....and than the prices for said item totally got crushed. I've found the most success with materials by far, and would much rather sell something stackable just for bag space and simplicity. It's also important to work with your playstyle and what you enjoy.... I've been working on rep farming and that always ends up being a bit of a passive gold farm because it's repetition. Great video. Subbed & look forward to watching more!
wrath, legion, outland mining, motes, uldum skinning with potion of treasure finding, clefthoof leather, warbear leather, rousing from dragonflight mining, crafting bags if the bolt price ever goes back down, legion gathering, buy bulk serevite for 30-40s and prospect them into gems, run old content here and there for tmog inventory which may sell one a day but its all about liquidity so you supplement it with the above and tmog quantity. Also, if you really wanna try, run cancel scans. $20 saved
Appreciated, Subscribed, and activated notifications... Your straightforward and honest post is excellent. Consistency and patience are the key to success, there's nothing quite like the reliability of gradual progress. Everyone has their own preferences; if you enjoy playing the Auction House game, constantly canceling and relisting auctions, that's great, but it's not my cup of tea. I found all the points you raised to be compelling, and I really enjoyed your style. Thank you for sharing.
Finally someone who tells it. I have done so many of these so called gold experts farms. Especially the DalaGG guy. I am sure the guy is a sweetheart, but tbh, I have never earned anything. either it wasn't hot on the ah or it took so long that I actually lost money. So eventually, demotivated as fuck I started to find out what mats were used for special stuff from for example engineering and I just farm the mats. I have found out that much of the mats of old content is worth so much more than that of Dragonflight. Thanks for this video confirming my suspicions. You desever a sub and a like for that
great vid. you are now my new gold guide. wath i hate about other gold guide is most of them are transmog i find hard sell transmog on my server. so what i did is gathering and profession. 5 months i did 26m not including what i buy in AC.
As someone who has farmed this game off and on for 16+ years as well I concur 100% with what you have said! Gold farming is frustrating and very time consuming and very little chance of getting rich, but you can make gold if your patient and willing to wait out the bots. Still the best recipe for success is Raw Mats farming, Again you won't get rich quick but you will always have gold.
I been playing since 2004. i dont farm shit, and i make enough gold to pay my monthly fee, my expansions, buy the other games you can buy with Bnet Balance like Diablo 4 just now just as an example, i used to buy boxes during the events of Overwatch, i buy the xmogs and mounts from the wow store with gold, i paid for the RAF thing with gold to get all the rewards, and i own the Brutosaur, and still have more then enough gold to buy mats for my professions and the occasional raid boe from the AH and sometimes i do buy stuff from the BMAH, i got the Sunlute of the phoenix god during MOP. I have not paid 1 cent in wow since the token came out... I don't understand people that need guides to make gold or that say farming is the best method to make gold. I think is a terrible time investment... If i were to farm matz i would not have time to raid or play my alts. Just saying.
@@josejuanandrade4439 well kudos to you! what's your secret to never farming gold but always having lots of it then cause I am sure there are many players that would love to hear this secret of yours! Let me guess, your in a guild that sell raids and mythics for gold? I don't farm much anymore cause I just lost interest in it, but it is a time consuming effective way to make the gold you need to play this game totally free! Not saying its the only way or even the best way but it is very effective and reliable even for the most novice player. you don't need to go buy guides just go farm the raw mats, done! its boring and time consuming but it works without fail!
@@anthonyzarfati3579 Like i said, the game throws gold at you. The boes i get when runing the raid and lfr with my alts, doing the weekly quests, the one at valdraken and the one at Loam. Btw every now and then you get a bag with 15k gold in the niffelin weekly bag, and less often on the valdraken weekly chest. Just that realy. I made a couple millions from when i did the Naxx grind to get the recipes and tier 3 for a couple alts. I also can craf the items you need to activate the lamented gear for that, so i made a couple hundred thousands from work orders from that. I get lots of shadowlfame essences from doing lfr with my alts that i sell in the ah, and glowspores when i do the digging thing with the niffen. I sold some of the extra frozen runes and wartorn armor pieces i got when farming naxx, i had way more then i needed. BTW i am done with the naxx thing, i realy just wanted to complete some tier 3 for my rogue and warrior and druid. Seriously, just play the game, do the weekly stuff, raid, and dont hoard things you dont need that you get while doing all that and thats it.
@@anthonyzarfati3579 Oh btw, theres something else, little extra gold from useles resources. You know at the end of Shadowlands i have tons of anima on all of my characters, and there was this vendor in Zereth Mortis that sold tokens for 226 gear? I transfered all my anima to my paladin, set his loot spec as retribution and spent ALL the anima into weapon tokens. As ret i got 2h weapon every time, 98gold each. This took me a few hours buying tokens, converting them and selling the items, i used a macro to buy bypassing the "are you sure" question box pop up and another to turn the tokens without having to click in each one individualy to speed up the whole thing. That was a lot of gold. Similarly, right now in Dragonflight, if you have nothing to do with the resources you get that you use to buy with the quartermasters, like i dont need anything anymore and i am not bothering buying the recipes and plans again on my alts, you can turn the resources into this "boulders" thing with the quartermaster in Loamm, and just vendor them. I made a few thousands of gold with that too. I mean, some characters had like 30k resources, and i literaly have never done anywith wiht them, and they just alts anyway. Hope this helps you. I just play the game. I don't farm matz, or pretty much anything to make gold. I do old raids for xmog and mounts, but not to make gold. I don't stop to mine or gather herbs when i am questing, and i don't even do world quests at this point of the xpac. Just do the weekly event, like timewalking, or mythic dungeons weekly, raid or lfr on alts. The suffusion camps, well not any more, but i used to do them when they came out. I do the researches underfire event on a few toons and time rifts, tho im done with time rifts too.
Good farms from old content: Borean Leather from Wrath, Light Leather from Classic zones and just in general mats from current Xpac which are either high demand or are rare… if I want I can make about 25k just from farming one area includeing infused baits…
Refreshing to hear this! been playing for nearly 20 years and i generally find gold making videos absolute bollocks! But this was the truth. Put in the work with easy selling reagents and you will make millions, but it takes time.
Im a WoW noob as Ive only played since just after SL dropped, however Ive found that my method of xmog selling works very reliably for me. First, you have to have a decent amount of worthy items. Secondly, be patient, keep posting reliably. Thirdly be aware of market fluctuations. Watch for popular gold making gurus to drop videos advising all to farm specific farm, chill a few days and buy the items from said farms on the cheap to resell. Be aware of upcoming content that will provide interest in mats or recipes. Lastly make xmogs and sell them yourself, purchasing materials when they are cheap ect.
As I said it just doesn’t work for me and the farmer s have stockpiles. Which is true if you need a good amount of worthy items. Im not saying it doesn’t work. Just that it is volatile and I think it’s just not for me! And the farmers don’t tell you to stockpile. That’s more the point. Of course anything can make you gold. But if you post gold making content, at least be transparent. Like you were here! Saying how you do it. What works and your process. That’s what matters.
I know it's not as efficient as gathering mats and stuff but I've always enjoyed going through old raids. Especially ones you can just kinda walk through. If you're doing endgame content, especially high tiered endgame like 20+ keys/Heroic/mythic raid? You can solo up to normal just one expansion back with most classes. Plus there's usually other people looking to do some of the harder ends of that like heroic/mythic versions. This is especially lucrative if you setup your own raid with "Full Mob Clear" in the title. This lets everyone know we are not letting a single enemy live in this dungeon. Sure, you might have to share some of the boss drops but you also get crap tons of garbage that often stacks up to 50+ on a stack and sells for 50+ gold per stack. Most packs of mobs are going to give you a raw 10-20g per pull too. If you're feeling particularly spicy go solo normal/heroic dungeons in current tier and sell the BoEs (either vendor or auctionhouse depending on if you just want them out of your bags or not) and you'll often get tons of greys this way too. Plus the gold drop hasn't been nerfed on them yet so you can usually finish a dungeon with 100 to 200g just from the gold drops extra. Now this is only really useful if your class/spec is capable of surviving and DPSing everything in the dungeon so you can clear 3+ dungeons per hour but it is a quick way to pay for that new crafted gear you need to pump your ilvl up or move some stats around. Hands down the most expensive thing you can do in the game is the crafting itself and doing any high end content. We're talking pots, runes, repairs, etc. My weekly expenses from doing 18+ keys this season alone have been upwards of 10 to 20k easily and Blizz loves to spit in your mouth by rewarding 35 minutes of challenging play with... 50 gold.
As a vanilla player returning to Dragonflight, I'm suprised they havent got more ontop of the botting. Regarding what you said about prices being different on each realm, isn't the AH multi realm now and just split by region or have I been misinformed about that? Also thanks for the great vid 👍
Yup, my thing has always been, if the farm has the potential for competition, then it's not worth doing. Like in classic if there is even 1 other person gathering in the zone you are in, then you're screwed, herbs and ores, it always competitive and a waste of time, and then let's say after hours and hours you finally get an inventory full of ores or herbs or both, you get to the AH to find out that everyone has undercut each other down to vendor sell price. It just isn't worth trying to do. The trick is soloing dungeons and vendoring the loot. Absolutely 0 competition.
I REALLY liked this video. It certainly mirrors my own experiences,and decisions. The "Apprentice seagull" guy says he puts up like, a couple hundred transmogs a week or something, and has like 3000 if those types of items always floating around in the AH. So my angle has been to try a few of these if the items are relatively easy to acquire, but I've been sticking to my favorite mats on my realm. Two laps of my favorite area takes about two hours, it can be less. I blast only the specific mob with my item, but the skinning also nets me two types of leathers and hydes, and I herb-out three different items there too. A fourth herb is the rare and elusive Black Lotus. Two on one run last night! But I typically net 12,000 to 13,000 of that run a day, because all these mats sell in 24 hours! I bet I got like only 40 items that are not mats in there.
Nice video one thing I would like to add and you sort of touched on it. Is when you see a video and it already has over 100k views chances are that market will be saturated or the area is going to be so crowded that making much gold will be slim. My tip would be if it is a crafting video then watch the prices of the materials used to make that item and farm those and sell them. Or if materials you can take a risky measure and watch the prices and try to flip the market if the price dips way below its normal averages. Watch the gold makers study their methods and try to anticipate what might be the next market to hit. Often times I have seen gold makers will put a videos as well to influence a market so they can make millions selling what they have stocked up on before the prices drop from competition.
Just to clarify ..botting is a ban if caught … but please don’t say dual or multiboxing is a ban or against tos … it’s not ,, you can run as many accounts as you want … and use auto follow … as long as you are are alt tabbing and and only doing 1 action for char at a time Blizzard has said that is totally okay … what’s not is automation where 1 key press does all chars at same time then that is automation and a ban … but people can still multibox and have fun with it …. Great vid though
I've tried transmog selling. You MAY get 1 thing to sell for like 200g, after about 2 weeks of reposting it. It's not worth it. I recently put a polearm on the AH for 1200, and it sold within 30 seconds. That was bizzare. But, I'll never rely on that. But, I got into leather farming recently, and I've made around 30k in a few days. I feel like this is the ticket. You just have to get your ass out there and work.
what you are saying is so true. I sell transmog, mostly low price items, but i also got some hight price items on AH and thats for drops and crafted transmog, I do sell patterns, pets, mats, vendor flipping (buying some stuff from vendors and posting them on AH (and yes i do sell some of them), i also do some raw gold farms. So i do alot of differfrent stuff, alot of it dont give that much but combined and added together it adds up. may i hear what you think about the way i make gold?
I kind of loaded my AH with tmog with tons of tmog(about 8 mil worth) both crafted, big ticket and tons of low ticket items. I doi like 3 or 4 hours tmog farm every week when I check what sold and what I'm missing now but mostly I farm mats doing it 1-2h a day bringing like 10-20k steady gold per day with mats. I make about 500k a month now since prices on my ralm are, well low as they can be xD
That's exactly how I feel about it too. Also, people usually share the information after they already made millions from it, so they let the market go crazy with thousands of other people flooding the system after watching the said video.
i made approximately 500k/week gold just only selling crafted mogs 2019-2022 but now i've quit from wow. it wasn't 100% profit because i bought almost all mats when they were cheap.
Totally agree with everything that you said. I make my gold farming motes and ores in Nagrand . Made 100k on Tuesday just with that but did around 10 hours total. WoW tokens on my EU Realm around the 400k mark bought my 30 days free play and now have free play till January 9th 😊
there are no farms like that right now, these resources farms happen mostly on begginin of expansions, in the past months i did tolvir fragmnets farm, its was 25k-30k/h, but they nerfed it. now i sell raid and dg rushes on 3 toons, they pay you 100-120k per raid and the raid takes 1h40min usually.@@MarkDavis-sb2il
See this is what a successful person outside of the game looks at gold farming. There is a token that sells in the game, so a gold farm is always going to be compared to it. So it is now, 20 dollars for 250k gold or around that. So instead of me farming gold, i just purchase that and i do things in the game that also make me gold but are the things that i want to do when i want to do them. Like i do enjoy the races and i make 500g doing one....now i wont get rich by doing them but i also wont lose gold either. So personally by paying monthly for my sub and maybe paying for a token monthly which adds up to 50 dollars a month which is NOTHING for the entertainment value it brings it gives me endless gold in game as long as i am not wanting to buy crazy items that to me personally are stupid. I have millions of gold on my account and have for years and i quit all the time and the gold just waits for me to return.
Dual boxing and multiboxing itself is not by a bannable offense. I still duobox gathering. I don’t use 16 accounts like I used to because the software used them is now banned.
So, having 19k items on the auction house, most of them green transmog, i can tell you that they DO sell. Just incredibly slowly. I still have greens from start of shadowlands that havent sold yet etc
Well,it is true about goldmakers video,most of the item from dung,green and blue never sell,no matter how old is the dung or raid.I am counting that they will not tell all about specific goldfarm because i like to check myself everything about specific dung or raid or location.Burning out is also not worth anymore.Idk how some always have maxim gold.
It’s easy to burn out for sure. I think the best bet to max out or even just make enough monthly to pay the sub is by farming things you enjoy. I enjoy collecting and gathering. So those are the farms I lean towards rather than dungeon spams or raid clears. But. Everyone has their own method. Also. Gold makers aren’t wrong for not sharing everything, and plus. They might have more luck with xmog than others. It’s all about luck and playing the market asap
@@venxm243 I want to make max gold do I can log in whenever I want,not to log in every Day to farm gold only to pay monthly sub.Ofk they have right not to share everything,everyone has secrete,so do i know things about farming what others don't know about.I like to farm dung and raid from old content but they are not that worth anymore,proffesion take too much time and requires a lot of materials would still not beat the milion.
I beggin the gold farm in the end of bfa. I made 21M gold . And i agree ALL videos we can see in youtube to ''make gold'' isn't that good. The best way to make gold is : 1 : chose if you want to ''craft a lot'' or farm a lot. Having fun when we are doing gold is important !!!! 2 : Knowing how the AH work , profession works to know what to farm or to do. 3 : Having Tsm just for 1 thing : This addon show the sell rate of ALL items in wow. So you know if an item will sell fast or no!
if you want to make ridiculous amounts of gold get good at the game and boost either the raid or m+, at the start of a new tier you can get anywhere from 500k-1mil gold for a since run/session of heroic raid, if you just want to stay casual professions like skinning/herbalism are your best bet but they're very grindy
Shadowlands was amazing for making gold without farming. Maybe and maybe i spent around 10 hours of farming,every other gold came from ah play. I didnt make 200 mil gold cuz i was lazy a bit and played on safe,without many risks and yes have lost some gold but in the whole shadowlands exp have made gold to play wow next 2 years for free
tmog doesnt work for 99% of people, its how it is, very server dependent and stock dependent (need a lots of crafted recipes for it to be good), and high AH volume, like 1500-2000 itens posted daily.
#1 should have just been that farming gold is the most boring activity you can possibly do in the game. Nothing like running in a tight circle killing the same mobs in half a global for 3 hours. It's a great spike when you actually get the gold that you farmed for... But up to that point it's just not fun at all.
Great video. Agree with 99%. But you did say dual boxing is a banable offense. Thats not true. Yoh can have as many accounts logged in at a time, grouped up and on follow as you like. AS LONG AS you arent running action copying software that control all of them at once. If you alt tab to each character and manually control their actions, that’s perfectly allowed. But again, thank you for the video.
With the right gathering and enough time you can pay your sub every month. High pop/Low pop doesn't influence reagents. It's not fun, it's not playing the game, it's grinding and boring.
How to farm gold ? Get huge rio >2600 plus for 0-18,19,20 >3000 . 3100 for 23 + . Get 95+ logs in raids. Boost raids , boost dungeons or even better advertise. 500k+ each day
Raid guild broke up late ICC, I left the game and came back mid cata, talked to my old guild leader since he was on all the time just to see what he was up to, he explained how he was making gold instead of raiding..gave me a few ideas and I was on my way. Took 9k gold and my army of alts and began my journey to max gold from buying/selling raw resources to crafted items and materials. At the time you had figure things out on your own and discover your own ways of making gold....so if you weren't able to think for yourself you couldn't just watch a RUclips video of someone else's methods or raw gold farms...different times and people kept their secrets to themselves. Now any half brain dead human can get on RUclips and follow one of a thousand methods people post on RUclips because they want the like and subscribes I do follow some channels and sometimes they post a "hidden gold farm" no one knows about and I'm thinking we knew about back in the day we just never talked about it.
I try to post relevant farms and materials that I test and know actually do well. But mainly, I just enjoy guide content as my channel shows haha. I was one of those free thinkers back in the early wow days that just DID farms to make gold and you’re right. No one talked about it. We just did it. I do try to be helpful more so than harmful for clicks or views. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn’t. But. I still love playing the game and doing what I do to try to help other players who might feel lost.
@venxm243 totally not a dig on your channel by any means..cata was the pinnacle of crafting and gold making for those that knew. Blizzards introduction of the wow token and the nerfs to the ability to flip items and the rise of RUclips Channels ( which helped and hurt the game ) along with a lot of other factors in the game changed everything. I no longer play retail on a regular basis, I log in at the end of expansions and play catch up then log out. I will play cata classic if it happens..see how it goes.
and to add 1 major tip u didnt said…watch news on wowhead when new patch comes…for example i bought empyrium ore 80 k units for 3 g each and resold all for 60g per unit….this is major tip -all rest are for pesants
nice video I watch alot of the popular gold farmers but never seem to make much, now I like farming the trans mog farm and looking for that high ticket item, but no matter what "farm" I do it doesnt make me a whole lot. I make my main gold from farming herbs, ore, leather. and right now I'm making a tone in ******* sorry not going to say I know many are right now but I'm making a big profit :P. but all in all I 100% agree with what you're saying, even with the "cleanout" video's where they're making 500k gold in a week, how many of those sales they bought on an alt or the name sold it. I make 10-70k a day not great but decent I do ore/herb/leather/prospecting ect ect farms is where I make the majority, I do keep a good stock of xmog up yes but those sell so rare I cant count on them, but I love farming them, and I keep crafted xmog up again same thing, my gold come more from my "blood and sweet" thanks for the video there are alot of people who needed to hear this, and umm sorry so long I kinda vented :P ooops
Hi, Venon. Very helpful indeed. I play on Goldrinn and here, the prices are disappointing, especially when it comes to pets or transmog. Items that are sold on other servers for 30k or more do not even sell for 300g here. Most pets can be found here for 10 to 50g. And for transmog, it usually pays off to sell items directly to NPCs. Thank you for your insights.
I realized most gold making channels are bullshit when some dude uploaded a "making 50 million gold just with crafting" challenge and in his first video put BfA bags on the AH for 350g... while in Dragonflight
@@Tobey745 haha sadly it’s not every gold maker that makes bad guides. One of my favorites is actually Studen. He does a great job and actually shares useful information and data. But some literally post the same videos for free that are in paid guides OR they steal from other guide creators.
I agree with most of what you have to say.. but there are other things they never tell you.. There are people like me in the AH that will take over a market.. I am what I call a AH whore.. I am in the AH watching it non stop.. I will pick a market and over time take it over.. Another thing about all gold making videos.. they want you to watch their videos so the titles are alway click bait.. Make 400k an hour.. And all those titles are lies.. The title of this video caught my eye and was please with the video.. You have a very honest opinion and offer some great advice to making gold.. I subscribed to your channel.. I been meaning to make a video simular to this one simple because of how bad some of the gold making video are. Look forward to more of your video's
Also, although quite late, something some people tend to not care too much about are the gold world quests and dragon courses quests. No this also isn't going to make you millions but, if you have a couple of alts you usually play with just go around doing those world quests since, as of right now, there is 11k gold avaiable for gold world quests alone + (x) amount from the dragon riding ones which give 500g each. You do those every couple of days when they reset on your alts, and it will add up
One thing i learned from TSM is that i didn't start making real gold until i started making smaller sales in large numbers. 15 to 50 gold per sale adds up surprisingly fast.
Exactly! I’d rather small consistent gold than volatile “high ticket” items. But. That’s just me. Some people have amazing success with those big items.
Yeah these smaller sales adds up super quick. I sales alot of smaller sales from transmog, mats, rep items etc. But I also have some hight ticket items on AH, like transmog, battle pets, patterns etc. The hight price items dont sale the often for me, but it is a nice uptick when a hight price do sell. I also have some crafted transmog on AH. And I also do some vendor flipping, buying some stuff really cheap from vendors and posting them on AH, I have made around 24k profit from doing that (over time ofcause), I also do some raw gold some time and ofcause mats farms. And I am thinking about starting make some old school potions alchemy like potion of treasure finding and post them on AH, to expan abit more.
The thing I like for consistent gold farm are aldor and scryer rep items. Marks of surgery's are 5g a pop and the green items for both aldor and cryer are fetching about 40g a pop right now. Not hard to farm if you got a spot or two either. Between vendor trash, random other drops and raw gold you can make a decent chunk of change in an hour just going back to TBC
Only 5 minutes in and I love you so much!! :D I've also been playing for 16 years now (on and off, mostly on xD, currenly taking a break) and I can't stop repeating what you've said in the first 5 minutes to EVERYONE I have an argument about making money with high value/low sale rate items such as transmogs. Most people treat the value in their loot appraiser farm window as "gold made within the time they farmed" rather then what it actually is - "the maximum potential gold you could theoretically make IF everything sells, EVENTUALLY"...
It's fine to have some big price things too, but I rely mostly on consistent steady smaller earners that sell faster and treat any such jackpots as a bonus if they sell. Like a monthly bonus reward or something. xD
My absolute favorite farm ever was in early Legion, in frontt of Darkheart, where the flowers are. Kill the flower mobs, herb them, also collect nearby herbs and repeat. At that point I randomly discovered this farm on my own. It wasn't popular at all. It was so good. Always making money, never having to s top and wait for respawns or anything. And it was satisfying too. A year later it got popular, and still it felt like a very short popularity span as a month after I could go and farm with no competition what so ever. But the money at that point weren't the same as in the beginning of the xpac.
Potion of luck farms were also something I loved, but they were super popular anyways. The flower thing was kinda nishe.
This is my 17th year in this game, it's all I play. I appreciate the honesty of your video. Here's what I've found works the best for me and how I have made a little over 16mill in the last 5 years.
Max out as many garrisons to lvl 3 and farm the minion of Grumpus mount. If you don't have an alt army this won't work since they decreased the drop rate but I use 50 lvl 3 garrisons and avg 20 mounts each December. Stockpile them and sell them throughout the year. I average 1-3 sold per month for 350-550K each(If you play on multiple servers send the merry supplies to your main server, they are account-bound). Farm the mount from Noble Garden, it's simple, those are much easier to get but only sell for 20-40K Keep the auction house loaded with transmog, battle pets, patterns and materials. People will always pay for work they don't want to do. One thing that has made me 100K per month since BFA is leveling gear. People love making alts craft the pieces that arent' heirlooms, belts, gloves, boots, and bracers. Alt creation will always be a thing. I have also made over a million per year selling battle pets. If you treat gold-making like real life, create a plan, and don't put all your eggs in one basket you will be set.
The best money making/saving option of the Garrison has never been the mine, the garden or mount farms. It's the Level 2 Smithy with a follower assigned. 4 hour buff for 0 durability loss unless you die (that can be refreshed at any point by just talking to the assigned follower in the Smithy again) has saved me literally millions of gold over the years. Takes maybe 2k to set up on any character but is infinitely worth it. Folks don't think about repair costs, but 60-100g on a consistent basis adds up fast. And yes the Song of the Anvil Buff (the relevant one of the 2 buffs the follower grants when talking to them) works in every zone and expansion as well as inside dungeons and raids.
This was a wonderful video, well spoken, detailed and overall just amazing. I really appreciate it all and I look forward to future videos from you!
nice video :D, finally a video that isn't "hey go there to farm that 0.1% drop chance item that hasn't selled since 2007"
Thank you, great video. Don't think you mentioned it, but the one thing I'd add about transmogs is that they are worth it once you have a collection of at least 1-2 thousand quality pieces. Also, TSM or some similar addon is a must for posting these.
Very honest video. In short my advice. fast small amount of gold for gems, enchants, consumables, just to be able to play game while having everything you need for it. N1 thing to do is Gathering professions- Herbalism>skinning, mining is also an option but sometimes it is a bit booring since you have to run in caves or underwater and nobody likes that I m sure. NO you wont make millions of gold in 22 minutes as gold guides say out there but YES you will have almost guaranteed 99% income from those sources, enough to keep you in line with others and enjoy game at its full. Raw materials have always been in demand and will always be, so you wont need to wait for 15 months in hope to sell a tmog that costs 5m gold. Besides raw materials, Alchemy is the best profession in my opinion since most of wow player base does pve and everyone who is competetive or maybe wants to compensate his/her lack of gear or maybe even game knowledge will always have with them flasks and potions in order to maximise their performance dps/healing or even tanking wise. Hope this will help at least some of you fellow gamers out there.
Happy hunting.
Huge fact drop here! Great video. I would also add that the big gold making channels actually kill gold making in most instances. Once a thousand people are on a farm they will undercut for fast sells until the farm is worthless. When they claim it’s 100k an hour what they mean is that it was three months ago when only a handful of people knew about it.
100%
NEAT, by far the most honest and valuable video about farming that i've watched, from a thousand more or less. Thank you so much.
The number one thing no gold farmer video will ever tell you is that the fastest way to make gold is to reset markets and commodities in particular. Problem is of course that you can also lose a lot of gold fast which means you need a huge stack of gold to start with to cover losses! Reducing these losses requires a lot of research, experience and regular monitoring of the AH bearing in mind that the AH is very much a PvP activity. Planning, practice, persistence and most of all patience is the key to success and none of these truths are helpful when trying to sell gold-making videos! Your frankness, honesty and practical approach for new goblins is however refreshing! :D
"The number one thing no gold farmer video will ever tell you is that the fastest way to make gold is to reset markets and commodities in particular." That works with inefficient markets. What people talking about that never seem to mention is a) other sellers and/or seller for value into the market or b) the goods don't sell at the reduced price. I feel like that it is a good idea that probably works over the long run but I've never seen any actual data supporting this strategy.
@@archvaldor It is a risky strategy and your points are well taken. Before I try it I always monitor the specific market for several weeks beforehand and use the Undermine Exchange to do the same over the whole region. Even then more sellers will always appear as they level up their professions and Blizzard can always intervene in various unpredictable ways so it's not a guaranteed strategy. When it works though - WoW! :D (btw I should also say that I never gamble more than 3% of my total gold at a time on any commodity and right now in this AH lull they are motivated by an anticipated price rise when future patches launch especially 10.2. BoE resets imo are now too risky since the new gear upgrade system was introduced.)
You are so right! I make most of my gold from materials. I do have a transmog bank toon, that sells nothing but transmog. I do make money every day from that, but not the way I do with mats. Depending on my committment to farming mats, I can make 10K-50K per day. An easy farm is the Firelands trash farm in cata using a treasure finding potion. Take a skinner and the potion and go. Everything I farmed this weekend, has already sold.
"I'd rather take a small win every day than hope for a big win every couple of months" that's how I managed to farm enough gold for the token, I don't even pay for the game anymore, I just drop 5k gold from farms here and there and I'm constantly looking for new items, new reagents, doing wq, these small bits are my focus. Here in Brazil we have a saying: de grão em grão, a galinha enche o papo (grain by grain, the chicken will fill it's belly).
There is nothing in this video but facts, straight and hard hitting 👍
What hardly any goldfarmer doesn't take into account, is scaling the gold making! Just like with a real business.
When you only play on one server you are basically boxing yourself in. Capping how much you personally can
make in short and long amounts of time. If a pattern is 40k on your server but 2k on Argent Dawn, I don't hesitate
to get it on my 2nd account to trade it over. if you do this with 500 different items you are literally getting rich sleeping.
I only farm tradegoods as filler. It's about 5-10% of the weekly income. Always have the mindset "I made 100k today, how
can I make 200k tomorrow with less time played." Some examples of fast sellers for crossrealm are:
Tomes of Illusion, SL mogs like Shadowghast, Toys and full Emerald Dream sets like the Autumn Druid and Harvest Guardian set.
One correction here is that dual boxing is not a bannable offense. You can still multibox just fine. You just cannot use any third party programs to mimic your keybinds IE, press one button to cast a spell and all accounts casting the same spell. That isn't allowed , but multiboxing without any programs is fine.
Yeah. I meant like. Using auto clickers etc. not just having multiple accounts. I should have specified and didn’t 😭 that’s on me.
The point : nobody tells you her secred gold making trick becorse they dont want share it its 100% truh .....
back in the day in 2008/2009 in woltk i got 2 realy great gold makings one farm and on flip ... the farm was the spiders and bats at zul drak NW of the Agentumwatch .....skinen there was the best spot in woltk and its still today the best spot for farmin woltk skining .....
the flip was just make low rings with juwy and diss them .... craft cost for the rings back in day was 2-2,6g each ...diss mats was 6-8g ..... i made goldcap with 8 chars and 8 privat gildbanks with that trick back in days .... the flip still is makebal , but its just a time kill and no i got rich thing today .....
All good advice, though only thing better than gathering is playing the AH. Study a few items and how they move, especially around reset. Buy them up and make some money. Don't try to make a million in one shot, be happy making 50k or 100k each time and make sure to limit your exposure.
Plain and simple the best method of gold making is selling in game runs for gold. Nothing comes close to comparing. Been selling runs since WoD, back in the Flex raid days; I can't even count how many characters I've gold capped at this point.
One thing I want to mention here is that a subscription is $15 a month and the cost of a WoW token is 328,980 gold. So if a person made $15 an hour at their irl job it would take 1 hour of their time to pay for a sub. So for a gold farm to be faster a person would have to be pulling in 330k-ish gold per hour. I don't see that happening, though, which is why for me the main reason to farm gold is to buy items from vendors and maybe some items from the AH. Actually I wouldn't mind having 10M gold in case I ever see the Brutosaur AH mount on the BMAH because I missed out on that in BfA. Anyways $15 a month seems like a fairly cheap price for the amount of hours I spend playing each month.
I love BOTS, when they dump I capitalize. I play the long haul game. It’s slow but works for me. I also enjoy owning certain markets which in turn gets good enough sells to feed my greed. Every once in a while weird things happen in the game and you gotta take advantage of the situations, like the duping epidemic of the TCG pets and remember flipping and selling guilds..
I enjoy new voices and new opinions in our small field of gold workers.. thanks for the morning commute video
Agreed, i have been playing this game since original vanilla and can tell you mats always sell, and in a fairly quick time too. Transmogs usually take weeks or months to offload and usually you won't get the price you targeted it the first place. Transmog farming is good if you have the time to wait for weeks or months on end, but most people want gold as soon as possible to pay for their subs as they often play from month to month and gold is their only way of keep playing, no steady gold could quite possibly mean no sub for you that month. Plus you can't just farm gold all the time, there is other things to do. And now days in Dragonflight where one WQ gives you 600-900+ gold is farming transmogs even worth it? Im not sure. People see small gold numbers on say ores or herbs and think its not worth picking up. The key is in the quantity, often people will buy in bulk, thousands of ore at once not just one or two because they are making multiple crafts to flip that mats cost and then sell. But honestly professions, especially current ones are usually not that profitable either because of oversaturated market or the value of mats themselves being higher then the item and no one wants to craft at a profit loss. Bottom line, mats has always been and will be the way to go, plus raw gold from quests and killing mobs for that extra bit of gold
I have followed a few videos, and gone after SOME transmog. But I've been on and off since TBC in '07, and mats are your friend. I'm pulling down 6k on a normal 1-hr run. I got about 50k a week momentum, and could do a bit more without much more time. But It can't hurt to have a few of these mogs in your AH, I've got like 40 or so with values between 700k and 1500g. It's nice to hit a boost to the gold here and there as a couple sell, as long as there's just a low number to maintain.
I found Studen to be really frank about transmog. he doesn't say it will sell quickly, in fact he flat out tells you it won't, but it's worth having up on the AH. Personally, I prefer raw gold farms. so back in the day, I use to solo old raids and vendor the epics and gets 1000's of gold that way, but then the following expansion they nerfed the gold that old raid epics vendor for. I haven't played retail since Shadowlands and I probably won't. I'm currently playing season of discovery and making gold there is also fun if you know where to go. Personally, like I said, I prefer raw gold, so killing basilisks in STV and vendoring everything is probably my best bet. everything else involves selling things on the AH. in legion, I farmed ore and sold it to buy for my WoW subscription and it worked great, the ores were going for 20-30 gold each at the time so it was a gold mine and it sold quickly. I think that was the best gold farm I've ever done and it was really easy on my guardian druid as Guardian tanks were really good back then.
Thank you for sharing your wisdom and tips ! I actually noticed this recently as a video when up for something I was already farming....and than the prices for said item totally got crushed. I've found the most success with materials by far, and would much rather sell something stackable just for bag space and simplicity. It's also important to work with your playstyle and what you enjoy.... I've been working on rep farming and that always ends up being a bit of a passive gold farm because it's repetition. Great video. Subbed & look forward to watching more!
I think THE biggest thing you can say to new goldfarmers is: Patience. Making millions takes two things, sheer luck or patience.
And a lot's of coding help...
wrath, legion, outland mining, motes, uldum skinning with potion of treasure finding, clefthoof leather, warbear leather, rousing from dragonflight mining, crafting bags if the bolt price ever goes back down, legion gathering, buy bulk serevite for 30-40s and prospect them into gems, run old content here and there for tmog inventory which may sell one a day but its all about liquidity so you supplement it with the above and tmog quantity. Also, if you really wanna try, run cancel scans. $20 saved
Very informative and honest video ! Why do you not still making WoW videos ?
It was a pleasure to watch this honest video !!
Appreciated, Subscribed, and activated notifications... Your straightforward and honest post is excellent. Consistency and patience are the key to success, there's nothing quite like the reliability of gradual progress. Everyone has their own preferences; if you enjoy playing the Auction House game, constantly canceling and relisting auctions, that's great, but it's not my cup of tea. I found all the points you raised to be compelling, and I really enjoyed your style. Thank you for sharing.
It’s good to understand how the AH works and to watch for items you are familiar with.
Finally someone who tells it. I have done so many of these so called gold experts farms. Especially the DalaGG guy. I am sure the guy is a sweetheart, but tbh, I have never earned anything. either it wasn't hot on the ah or it took so long that I actually lost money. So eventually, demotivated as fuck I started to find out what mats were used for special stuff from for example engineering and I just farm the mats. I have found out that much of the mats of old content is worth so much more than that of Dragonflight.
Thanks for this video confirming my suspicions. You desever a sub and a like for that

Learn the secret Chinese gold farmers DON'T want you to know.
Cheaper off a gold bot farmer than making blizz more money 😂
@@tc4089u get banned when they catch you
great vid. you are now my new gold guide. wath i hate about other gold guide is most of them are transmog i find hard sell transmog on my server. so what i did is gathering and profession. 5 months i did 26m not including what i buy in AC.
As someone who has farmed this game off and on for 16+ years as well I concur 100% with what you have said! Gold farming is frustrating and very time consuming and very little chance of getting rich, but you can make gold if your patient and willing to wait out the bots. Still the best recipe for success is Raw Mats farming, Again you won't get rich quick but you will always have gold.
I been playing since 2004. i dont farm shit, and i make enough gold to pay my monthly fee, my expansions, buy the other games you can buy with Bnet Balance like Diablo 4 just now just as an example, i used to buy boxes during the events of Overwatch, i buy the xmogs and mounts from the wow store with gold, i paid for the RAF thing with gold to get all the rewards, and i own the Brutosaur, and still have more then enough gold to buy mats for my professions and the occasional raid boe from the AH and sometimes i do buy stuff from the BMAH, i got the Sunlute of the phoenix god during MOP. I have not paid 1 cent in wow since the token came out...
I don't understand people that need guides to make gold or that say farming is the best method to make gold. I think is a terrible time investment... If i were to farm matz i would not have time to raid or play my alts. Just saying.
@@josejuanandrade4439 well kudos to you! what's your secret to never farming gold but always having lots of it then cause I am sure there are many players that would love to hear this secret of yours! Let me guess, your in a guild that sell raids and mythics for gold? I don't farm much anymore cause I just lost interest in it, but it is a time consuming effective way to make the gold you need to play this game totally free! Not saying its the only way or even the best way but it is very effective and reliable even for the most novice player. you don't need to go buy guides just go farm the raw mats, done! its boring and time consuming but it works without fail!
@@josejuanandrade4439how do you make gold then if you don’t mind me asking?
@@anthonyzarfati3579 Like i said, the game throws gold at you. The boes i get when runing the raid and lfr with my alts, doing the weekly quests, the one at valdraken and the one at Loam. Btw every now and then you get a bag with 15k gold in the niffelin weekly bag, and less often on the valdraken weekly chest. Just that realy.
I made a couple millions from when i did the Naxx grind to get the recipes and tier 3 for a couple alts. I also can craf the items you need to activate the lamented gear for that, so i made a couple hundred thousands from work orders from that.
I get lots of shadowlfame essences from doing lfr with my alts that i sell in the ah, and glowspores when i do the digging thing with the niffen. I sold some of the extra frozen runes and wartorn armor pieces i got when farming naxx, i had way more then i needed. BTW i am done with the naxx thing, i realy just wanted to complete some tier 3 for my rogue and warrior and druid.
Seriously, just play the game, do the weekly stuff, raid, and dont hoard things you dont need that you get while doing all that and thats it.
@@anthonyzarfati3579 Oh btw, theres something else, little extra gold from useles resources. You know at the end of Shadowlands i have tons of anima on all of my characters, and there was this vendor in Zereth Mortis that sold tokens for 226 gear? I transfered all my anima to my paladin, set his loot spec as retribution and spent ALL the anima into weapon tokens. As ret i got 2h weapon every time, 98gold each. This took me a few hours buying tokens, converting them and selling the items, i used a macro to buy bypassing the "are you sure" question box pop up and another to turn the tokens without having to click in each one individualy to speed up the whole thing. That was a lot of gold.
Similarly, right now in Dragonflight, if you have nothing to do with the resources you get that you use to buy with the quartermasters, like i dont need anything anymore and i am not bothering buying the recipes and plans again on my alts, you can turn the resources into this "boulders" thing with the quartermaster in Loamm, and just vendor them. I made a few thousands of gold with that too. I mean, some characters had like 30k resources, and i literaly have never done anywith wiht them, and they just alts anyway. Hope this helps you.
I just play the game. I don't farm matz, or pretty much anything to make gold. I do old raids for xmog and mounts, but not to make gold. I don't stop to mine or gather herbs when i am questing, and i don't even do world quests at this point of the xpac. Just do the weekly event, like timewalking, or mythic dungeons weekly, raid or lfr on alts. The suffusion camps, well not any more, but i used to do them when they came out. I do the researches underfire event on a few toons and time rifts, tho im done with time rifts too.
Good farms from old content: Borean Leather from Wrath, Light Leather from Classic zones and just in general mats from current Xpac which are either high demand or are rare… if I want I can make about 25k just from farming one area includeing infused baits…
9:51 absolutely love how you saying "professions professions professions" synced up with you moonfiring
Who doesn’t love a good moonfire
Refreshing to hear this! been playing for nearly 20 years and i generally find gold making videos absolute bollocks!
But this was the truth. Put in the work with easy selling reagents and you will make millions, but it takes time.
Im a WoW noob as Ive only played since just after SL dropped, however Ive found that my method of xmog selling works very reliably for me. First, you have to have a decent amount of worthy items. Secondly, be patient, keep posting reliably. Thirdly be aware of market fluctuations. Watch for popular gold making gurus to drop videos advising all to farm specific farm, chill a few days and buy the items from said farms on the cheap to resell. Be aware of upcoming content that will provide interest in mats or recipes. Lastly make xmogs and sell them yourself, purchasing materials when they are cheap ect.
As I said it just doesn’t work for me and the farmer s have stockpiles. Which is true if you need a good amount of worthy items. Im not saying it doesn’t work. Just that it is volatile and I think it’s just not for me! And the farmers don’t tell you to stockpile. That’s more the point. Of course anything can make you gold. But if you post gold making content, at least be transparent. Like you were here! Saying how you do it. What works and your process. That’s what matters.
I farmed raids. Made 50k-300k a day and I had fun doing it. It’s about the Matt’s and lvling gear.
I know it's not as efficient as gathering mats and stuff but I've always enjoyed going through old raids. Especially ones you can just kinda walk through. If you're doing endgame content, especially high tiered endgame like 20+ keys/Heroic/mythic raid? You can solo up to normal just one expansion back with most classes. Plus there's usually other people looking to do some of the harder ends of that like heroic/mythic versions. This is especially lucrative if you setup your own raid with "Full Mob Clear" in the title. This lets everyone know we are not letting a single enemy live in this dungeon. Sure, you might have to share some of the boss drops but you also get crap tons of garbage that often stacks up to 50+ on a stack and sells for 50+ gold per stack. Most packs of mobs are going to give you a raw 10-20g per pull too.
If you're feeling particularly spicy go solo normal/heroic dungeons in current tier and sell the BoEs (either vendor or auctionhouse depending on if you just want them out of your bags or not) and you'll often get tons of greys this way too. Plus the gold drop hasn't been nerfed on them yet so you can usually finish a dungeon with 100 to 200g just from the gold drops extra. Now this is only really useful if your class/spec is capable of surviving and DPSing everything in the dungeon so you can clear 3+ dungeons per hour but it is a quick way to pay for that new crafted gear you need to pump your ilvl up or move some stats around.
Hands down the most expensive thing you can do in the game is the crafting itself and doing any high end content. We're talking pots, runes, repairs, etc. My weekly expenses from doing 18+ keys this season alone have been upwards of 10 to 20k easily and Blizz loves to spit in your mouth by rewarding 35 minutes of challenging play with... 50 gold.
Watching this i really glad about my decisions to make gold from boosting
As a vanilla player returning to Dragonflight, I'm suprised they havent got more ontop of the botting. Regarding what you said about prices being different on each realm, isn't the AH multi realm now and just split by region or have I been misinformed about that?
Also thanks for the great vid
👍
Yeah so reagents are by region. It seems armor and certain things is by realm or realm cluster.
Yup, my thing has always been, if the farm has the potential for competition, then it's not worth doing. Like in classic if there is even 1 other person gathering in the zone you are in, then you're screwed, herbs and ores, it always competitive and a waste of time, and then let's say after hours and hours you finally get an inventory full of ores or herbs or both, you get to the AH to find out that everyone has undercut each other down to vendor sell price. It just isn't worth trying to do. The trick is soloing dungeons and vendoring the loot. Absolutely 0 competition.
I REALLY liked this video. It certainly mirrors my own experiences,and decisions. The "Apprentice seagull" guy says he puts up like, a couple hundred transmogs a week or something, and has like 3000 if those types of items always floating around in the AH. So my angle has been to try a few of these if the items are relatively easy to acquire, but I've been sticking to my favorite mats on my realm. Two laps of my favorite area takes about two hours, it can be less. I blast only the specific mob with my item, but the skinning also nets me two types of leathers and hydes, and I herb-out three different items there too. A fourth herb is the rare and elusive Black Lotus. Two on one run last night! But I typically net 12,000 to 13,000 of that run a day, because all these mats sell in 24 hours! I bet I got like only 40 items that are not mats in there.
Nice video one thing I would like to add and you sort of touched on it. Is when you see a video and it already has over 100k views chances are that market will be saturated or the area is going to be so crowded that making much gold will be slim. My tip would be if it is a crafting video then watch the prices of the materials used to make that item and farm those and sell them. Or if materials you can take a risky measure and watch the prices and try to flip the market if the price dips way below its normal averages. Watch the gold makers study their methods and try to anticipate what might be the next market to hit. Often times I have seen gold makers will put a videos as well to influence a market so they can make millions selling what they have stocked up on before the prices drop from competition.
Just to clarify ..botting is a ban if caught … but please don’t say dual or multiboxing is a ban or against tos … it’s not ,, you can run as many accounts as you want … and use auto follow … as long as you are are alt tabbing and and only doing 1 action for char at a time Blizzard has said that is totally okay … what’s not is automation where 1 key press does all chars at same time then that is automation and a ban … but people can still multibox and have fun with it ….
Great vid though
I've tried transmog selling. You MAY get 1 thing to sell for like 200g, after about 2 weeks of reposting it. It's not worth it. I recently put a polearm on the AH for 1200, and it sold within 30 seconds. That was bizzare. But, I'll never rely on that. But, I got into leather farming recently, and I've made around 30k in a few days. I feel like this is the ticket. You just have to get your ass out there and work.
what you are saying is so true. I sell transmog, mostly low price items, but i also got some hight price items on AH and thats for drops and crafted transmog, I do sell patterns, pets, mats, vendor flipping (buying some stuff from vendors and posting them on AH (and yes i do sell some of them), i also do some raw gold farms. So i do alot of differfrent stuff, alot of it dont give that much but combined and added together it adds up.
may i hear what you think about the way i make gold?
There is so much truth in this video. I've also farmed off and on since Vanilla and experienced much the same.
I just wish there was more transparency when it comes to success from the videos. Especially for new players who don’t know better.
@@venxm243 unfortunately that would work against those who want more clicks and views. As such they promise the moon without any caveats.
I kind of loaded my AH with tmog with tons of tmog(about 8 mil worth) both crafted, big ticket and tons of low ticket items. I doi like 3 or 4 hours tmog farm every week when I check what sold and what I'm missing now but mostly I farm mats doing it 1-2h a day bringing like 10-20k steady gold per day with mats. I make about 500k a month now since prices on my ralm are, well low as they can be xD
I put up like 500k worth of patterns and ended up selling them for like. 25k lol the market is poop rn
Make a tank/healer alt and spam bonus bag queues. Sell runes on ah. Easy starter gold. Enough for your enchants and consumables.
You just cleared my mind thank you
That's exactly how I feel about it too. Also, people usually share the information after they already made millions from it, so they let the market go crazy with thousands of other people flooding the system after watching the said video.
i made approximately 500k/week gold just only selling crafted mogs 2019-2022 but now i've quit from wow.
it wasn't 100% profit because i bought almost all mats when they were cheap.
Totally agree with everything that you said. I make my gold farming motes and ores in Nagrand . Made 100k on Tuesday just with that but did around 10 hours total. WoW tokens on my EU Realm around the 400k mark bought my 30 days free play and now have free play till January 9th 😊
10kgold/hour is pretty bad, i dont waste my time with any resource farming that less than 25-30k/hr.
@@samuel9294 that’s nice and where do you do these farms that make you 25-30k per hour please share
there are no farms like that right now, these resources farms happen mostly on begginin of expansions, in the past months i did tolvir fragmnets farm, its was 25k-30k/h, but they nerfed it.
now i sell raid and dg rushes on 3 toons, they pay you 100-120k per raid and the raid takes 1h40min usually.@@MarkDavis-sb2il
Leaving a like on this. Thank you for finally speaking the truth on this matter.
See this is what a successful person outside of the game looks at gold farming. There is a token that sells in the game, so a gold farm is always going to be compared to it. So it is now, 20 dollars for 250k gold or around that. So instead of me farming gold, i just purchase that and i do things in the game that also make me gold but are the things that i want to do when i want to do them. Like i do enjoy the races and i make 500g doing one....now i wont get rich by doing them but i also wont lose gold either. So personally by paying monthly for my sub and maybe paying for a token monthly which adds up to 50 dollars a month which is NOTHING for the entertainment value it brings it gives me endless gold in game as long as i am not wanting to buy crazy items that to me personally are stupid. I have millions of gold on my account and have for years and i quit all the time and the gold just waits for me to return.
Great video🎉
Thank you 😁
Dual boxing and multiboxing itself is not by a bannable offense. I still duobox gathering. I don’t use 16 accounts like I used to because the software used them is now banned.
So, having 19k items on the auction house, most of them green transmog, i can tell you that they DO sell. Just incredibly slowly. I still have greens from start of shadowlands that havent sold yet etc
2 Accounts - starting cash 100k - 500k - undermine exchange - cross realm trading
Well,it is true about goldmakers video,most of the item from dung,green and blue never sell,no matter how old is the dung or raid.I am counting that they will not tell all about specific goldfarm because i like to check myself everything about specific dung or raid or location.Burning out is also not worth anymore.Idk how some always have maxim gold.
It’s easy to burn out for sure. I think the best bet to max out or even just make enough monthly to pay the sub is by farming things you enjoy. I enjoy collecting and gathering. So those are the farms I lean towards rather than dungeon spams or raid clears. But. Everyone has their own method.
Also. Gold makers aren’t wrong for not sharing everything, and plus. They might have more luck with xmog than others. It’s all about luck and playing the market asap
@@venxm243 I want to make max gold do I can log in whenever I want,not to log in every Day to farm gold only to pay monthly sub.Ofk they have right not to share everything,everyone has secrete,so do i know things about farming what others don't know about.I like to farm dung and raid from old content but they are not that worth anymore,proffesion take too much time and requires a lot of materials would still not beat the milion.
I beggin the gold farm in the end of bfa. I made 21M gold . And i agree ALL videos we can see in youtube to ''make gold'' isn't that good. The best way to make gold is :
1 : chose if you want to ''craft a lot'' or farm a lot. Having fun when we are doing gold is important !!!!
2 : Knowing how the AH work , profession works to know what to farm or to do.
3 : Having Tsm just for 1 thing : This addon show the sell rate of ALL items in wow. So you know if an item will sell fast or no!
if you want to make ridiculous amounts of gold get good at the game and boost either the raid or m+, at the start of a new tier you can get anywhere from 500k-1mil gold for a since run/session of heroic raid, if you just want to stay casual professions like skinning/herbalism are your best bet but they're very grindy
Shadowlands was amazing for making gold without farming. Maybe and maybe i spent around 10 hours of farming,every other gold came from ah play. I didnt make 200 mil gold cuz i was lazy a bit and played on safe,without many risks and yes have lost some gold but in the whole shadowlands exp have made gold to play wow next 2 years for free
Are you thinking about getting baldurs gate 3?
I have it!
@@venxm243 what are your thoughts on it? I am still in Act 1 😅
@@kingslushie1018 honestly. It’s a lot of fun once you progress!
I agree transmogs rarely sells. I wonder if those gold makers buy their own transmog cus they never sell for me
tmog doesnt work for 99% of people, its how it is, very server dependent and stock dependent (need a lots of crafted recipes for it to be good), and high AH volume, like 1500-2000 itens posted daily.
You need more, need like 3000 items. Itl sell you just need more of a variety. I do it everyday.
a world where u get 200 gold from completing an m+ key is a world with peace.
GIRL I LOVE U HONEST APPROACH THX SO MUCH) HAVE A NICE LIFE
Multiboxing isnt bannable using software to control all the accounts is
#1 should have just been that farming gold is the most boring activity you can possibly do in the game. Nothing like running in a tight circle killing the same mobs in half a global for 3 hours. It's a great spike when you actually get the gold that you farmed for... But up to that point it's just not fun at all.
thanks for being honest about those ytube clickbait videos
Iron docks 9 to 10k a day raw gold.that is my go to run.😊
Great video. Agree with 99%. But you did say dual boxing is a banable offense. Thats not true. Yoh can have as many accounts logged in at a time, grouped up and on follow as you like. AS LONG AS you arent running action copying software that control all of them at once. If you alt tab to each character and manually control their actions, that’s perfectly allowed.
But again, thank you for the video.
Yeah. I didn’t specify properly that I meant like. Auto clickers and cheats. Etc.
With the right gathering and enough time you can pay your sub every month. High pop/Low pop doesn't influence reagents.
It's not fun, it's not playing the game, it's grinding and boring.
older materials are going for crazy prices atm. Even on some high pop realms 10g a raw ore!
Absolutely!!
How to farm gold ? Get huge rio >2600 plus for 0-18,19,20 >3000 . 3100 for 23 + . Get 95+ logs in raids. Boost raids , boost dungeons or even better advertise. 500k+ each day
Raid guild broke up late ICC, I left the game and came back mid cata, talked to my old guild leader since he was on all the time just to see what he was up to, he explained how he was making gold instead of raiding..gave me a few ideas and I was on my way.
Took 9k gold and my army of alts and began my journey to max gold from buying/selling raw resources to crafted items and materials. At the time you had figure things out on your own and discover your own ways of making gold....so if you weren't able to think for yourself you couldn't just watch a RUclips video of someone else's methods or raw gold farms...different times and people kept their secrets to themselves.
Now any half brain dead human can get on RUclips and follow one of a thousand methods people post on RUclips because they want the like and subscribes
I do follow some channels and sometimes they post a "hidden gold farm" no one knows about and I'm thinking we knew about back in the day we just never talked about it.
I try to post relevant farms and materials that I test and know actually do well. But mainly, I just enjoy guide content as my channel shows haha. I was one of those free thinkers back in the early wow days that just DID farms to make gold and you’re right. No one talked about it. We just did it. I do try to be helpful more so than harmful for clicks or views. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn’t. But. I still love playing the game and doing what I do to try to help other players who might feel lost.
@venxm243 totally not a dig on your channel by any means..cata was the pinnacle of crafting and gold making for those that knew.
Blizzards introduction of the wow token and the nerfs to the ability to flip items and the rise of RUclips Channels ( which helped and hurt the game ) along with a lot of other factors in the game changed everything. I no longer play retail on a regular basis, I log in at the end of expansions and play catch up then log out. I will play cata classic if it happens..see how it goes.
I used to make a lot of gold but being able to buy 400k for 20 bucks is just to demotivating.
and to add 1 major tip u didnt said…watch news on wowhead when new patch comes…for example i bought empyrium ore 80 k units for 3 g each and resold all for 60g per unit….this is major tip -all rest are for pesants
I have been trying to sell the a schematic it was going for 139,000 gold but once I cut it in half it sold right away
nice video I watch alot of the popular gold farmers but never seem to make much, now I like farming the trans mog farm and looking for that high ticket item, but no matter what "farm" I do it doesnt make me a whole lot. I make my main gold from farming herbs, ore, leather. and right now I'm making a tone in ******* sorry not going to say I know many are right now but I'm making a big profit :P. but all in all I 100% agree with what you're saying, even with the "cleanout" video's where they're making 500k gold in a week, how many of those sales they bought on an alt or the name sold it. I make 10-70k a day not great but decent I do ore/herb/leather/prospecting ect ect farms is where I make the majority, I do keep a good stock of xmog up yes but those sell so rare I cant count on them, but I love farming them, and I keep crafted xmog up again same thing, my gold come more from my "blood and sweet" thanks for the video there are alot of people who needed to hear this, and umm sorry so long I kinda vented :P ooops
My bet would be dracothyst :P
I reach of 30k gold in 2 days by selling motes of pandaria raids, just small by small quantes of gold
Selling high value transmog can suck. Spend over a year trying to sell 2 Papal Faz's
Subbed, expose them girl. Great vid.
Thank you so much! That means the world
Hi, Venon.
Very helpful indeed. I play on Goldrinn and here, the prices are disappointing, especially when it comes to pets or transmog. Items that are sold on other servers for 30k or more do not even sell for 300g here. Most pets can be found here for 10 to 50g. And for transmog, it usually pays off to sell items directly to NPCs.
Thank you for your insights.
Multiboxing isn’t bannable but using macros to operate all the accounts at once is.
I realized most gold making channels are bullshit when some dude uploaded a "making 50 million gold just with crafting" challenge and in his first video put BfA bags on the AH for 350g... while in Dragonflight
They do sell not quite as fast as the newer ones but older bags still sell. Don't ask me why but it does happen ^^ .
how I get gold is I just play the game and do old raid and lfr and dungeons
You may also join a boosting community. You can do almost 100k/hr
this makes me wanna make more accounts to upvote it, dont fall for gold making guides, its usually a scam
@@Tobey745 haha sadly it’s not every gold maker that makes bad guides. One of my favorites is actually Studen. He does a great job and actually shares useful information and data. But some literally post the same videos for free that are in paid guides OR they steal from other guide creators.
well said
Dual boxing isn't banable. Using third party programs to automate it however, is.
Yeah, auto clickers etc - understandable!
that is why i boost m+ and raid^^fast and easy
thanks!
A Classic Era video would be nice...
also i made more gold in last 17 yrs buying cheap mats from bots and then ressel for tripple price….coin have 2 sides
real stuff
They make money off of the people farming, buy it very low and resell it and encourage people to keep farming so they can flip the items
I agree with most of what you have to say.. but there are other things they never tell you.. There are people like me in the AH that will take over a market.. I am what I call a AH whore.. I am in the AH watching it non stop.. I will pick a market and over time take it over.. Another thing about all gold making videos.. they want you to watch their videos so the titles are alway click bait.. Make 400k an hour.. And all those titles are lies.. The title of this video caught my eye and was please with the video.. You have a very honest opinion and offer some great advice to making gold.. I subscribed to your channel.. I been meaning to make a video simular to this one simple because of how bad some of the gold making video are. Look forward to more of your video's
easiest one is boosting, guaranteed gold
