[@Juztastic]

Can confirm auction house flipping can be extremely lucrative in TBC although I used to slave away competing with other players and bots trying to farm Motes/Primals and doing laps around Nagrand trying to find veins to mine and would make a small income each time. My GF at the time would just sit in the AH she was JC/Alc (transmute master) and she managed early on to get the majority of JC recipes (pre Hyjal gems) and would simply look for Adamantite ore and if it was selling for a price she deemed reasonable she would buy it, prospect it and then cut the gems she got and relist them. I remember her investing 10k gold just buying ore and uncut gems and then flipping it and doubling or even tripling her money. On top of that she made plenty just transmuting primal might early on and making a fortune selling that as a lot of pre bis uses it.

I remember making thousands of netherweave bags back in TBC, around 10k if I recall. Not unlikely the majority eventually came across one of my bags on Frostmane EU. -Gythian

[@mindful_clip]

JC is the best. Living Ruby ftw. At the high, I was selling each Delicate for 250g. Flasks go for 60g-90g as most CDs are worth like Diamonds, Cloths, etc. My eng is good too but primals are 25g at most. Farming minging/herb = 250g-350g /hr. Plenty of ways to make plenty of gold. But buying cheap ore and prospecting, and JC in general makes so much more than all of the other together. I'm only missing LW and Tailoring.

Savage fronds can sell for infinitely more than they vendor for, mostly because they cannot be vendored.

#1 Will continue to be GDKP raid leading. The % cut they 'earn' is so ridiculous they end up with multiple legendary's from MC and Naxx, and are still going into BCC with over 100k gold.

[@RT-wt7gu]

How about Black Morass trash farm? Professions needed skinning and enchanting. I used prot paladin with Figurine of the Colossus trinket (every block heals like 125hp and Warchief Kargath drops it) with some other trinket that increased block chance. I pulled spiders from one side, then the other. Killed them all and then beasts. Why? So i can loot and have time for skinning and by the time you make next pull after looting and skinning, your trinkets cooldowns are passed. You can get a lot of spider silk, leather and disenchant greens/blues.

[@RT-wt7gu]

Was thinking that while you farm Black Morass, you can also sell boost to lvl 70 there. Think it was from 68-70. What we also did back in TBC later patches was selling Amani War Bears. Every member from the raid was paid 1000g and we invited buyer when boss came.

[@RT-wt7gu]

Also, later when Sunwell comes out, you can farm trash in Sunwell with small group for epic gems and sunmotes (sold it for like 2000g each then).

Another great but slow/RNG way to make gold is to vendor camp the engineering vendors in Area 52 and the Ethereal guys in Stormspire, They can sell motes and herbs for cheap, as well as potions and crafted Engineering items that normally would require motes/primal to craft such as the Khorium Power Core (khorium bar, primal fire).

[@De_Nome]

It is exactly because that the mages will no longer be able to boost that the few protection paladins will be able to ask for whatever price they want and do as many boosts as they want being able to boost from Stockades up to Stratholme almost easily with the proper gear which is not even hard to get. I mean, you have to consider that the current Classic prices will be converted into the TBC prices so the paladins will be able and will ask for so much more gold for boosting. p.s. this kind of farm so to speak that is practically relative to the realm economy is absolutely amazing

[@d0k0night]

Oh there won't be a "few" protection paladins. Mark my words, day 1 of TBC you will every single boosting mage roll a Prot Pally and get that character up there ASAP. Prot Pallies will be everywhere you look. On the up side it'll mean there'll never be anyone hard up for finding a tank. But the potential downside is that boosting rates are going to drop, big time. You're not going to be able to charge a ton for boosting when there's 10+ other pallies all offering boosting for any given dungeon.

[@De_Nome]

@@d0k0night Not really? Do you play Classic? 90% of the Boosters are gold sellers with very crap gear that do not invest in the game nor their character because they know that they risk to get banned eventually. So you will not see that many geared paladins. Actually, we barely see any boosters nowadays since Shadowlands came and i guess that is because the Classic gold rate plumetted with the demand being at its lowest.

[@HalBDeU]

Rogue chests farming (if they are not fixed that is). Edit: I think back in the days in TBC before it got hotfixed you could easily do 300G an hour as a rogue in Mechanar, if not more. Ahhhh, that was amazing.

[@Toyhouze]

Yeah I forgot about that.I do think boosting will be less common with the aoe nerf! I don't see a lot of boosting at all on TBC private servers, although could be in part due to purchasable exp boosts.

[@bass-dc9175]

@@Toyhouze Paladins get around this, because their damage comes from Thorn effects. Which are not affected by the AOE cap, since it is just multiple instances of single-target damage. So they pull the entire instance, while healing themselves, give themselves Ret aura and the Tanking blessing, with a Thorned shield and just stand there watching the mobs kill themselves.

[@bass-dc9175]

I'll elaborate a bit on the reflection gear: 2 Items are essencial. Sporregar shield and Demon Forged breastplate. The shield puts a dot on enemies which you block, while the Breastplate gives you a 1% chance to put a dot on enemies that will drain life. These 2 will keep you alife and account for most of your damage. Then there are the Reflection items. Razor Gaunlets (Dire Maul east - Final Boss): Reflects 3 Arcane damage to anyone that hits you. Nagelring (Blackrock Depths - Golem Lord): Reflects 3 Arcane damage to anyone that hits you. Felsteel Shield Spike: Use: Attaches a Felsteel Spike to your shield that deals 26-38 damage every time you block with it. Cloak of Flame (INCREDIBLY rare): Deals 5 Fire damage to attackers. Alternative: Cloak of Fire (Tailoring) Use: Deals 5 DPS to everyone around you for 15 seconds. (2 min CD) Essence of Pure Flame: Deals 13 Fire damage to attackers. Electromagnetic Gigaflux Reactivator (Gnomeregan - Final boss): 5 Damage reflect buff for 10 minutes (30 min cd, remains after you swap the helmet). This is addition to your Paly aura, the Crystal buff from Ungoro turnins and blessing of Sanctuary (Reduces damage taken by 80, reflects 46 holy damage upon block). All of the above deal normal damage and will allow for boosting to continue.

#2 Boosting The AoE Damage nerf I think will make boosting take a huge hit. Not stop it, but significantly slow it down. Even at 70 things like Mara single pulls I'm guessing won't be a thing. Certainly ZG 1 pulls I can't imagine will work. Obviously you can still boost people in said dungeons but you will have to do more pulls of smaller packs and in extension take make times longer to clear the full dungeons and in extension be significantly less efficient. But perhaps you'll still be able to hit the dungeons per hour cap as you are suggesting? *shrug*

[@shroud4269]

Why is it good to quest at 70

[@bass-dc9175]

@@shroud4269 Because any XP a quest would give you is instead converted into gold if you are lvl 70. Additionally let us consider reputation. To get revered (And as such access to heroic dungeons) with specific factions, you need alot of reputation, which you would grind by doing dungeons. Lets say we set reaching level 70 and doing heroics as our first goal. If we do quests and then do dungeons at max level, then we get the reputation from quests while we are at neutral and reach friendly at lvl 70. After which we would need to grind dungeons till honored and lvl 70 dungeons till revered. Sounds good, but now let us turn that around. If we instead save our quests till level 70 then we can do this: Honorhold and Thrallmar reputation is gained in the first dungeon of TBC. A dungeon which does not give rep if you are at level 70, so we use that one to grind to lvl 62. Then do Slave Pens, Auchindoun dungeons etc till 67, caverns of time and lvl 68-70 dungeons to 70. Now we still have every single quest, we are at 70, likely friendly - honored with alot of factions. Here comes the kicker: Quests allways give the same reputation, no matter the level. So we reach Honored with the factions we want first, then do the quests. This should get us a good way to revered with some factions and alot of gold. In short: - We have to do dungeon grinds anyways for Reputation. - If we do the quests first and then do the grind, then we can not do every dungeon for that grind (Because of the step between honored and revered). - Switching Questing and dungeon grinding around, lets us save quests for honored - Revered. - Doing so saves us time and grinding at max level. - It also nets us between 1,5 and 2k of additional gold.

Cross faction AH farming bis?

[@bass-dc9175]

-25% tarif for cross faction AH.

[@JohnDoe-do3fm]

Hopefully people don't all do the shuffle, that would wreak havoc on the auction house.

[@De_Nome]

Also, do not bother with Jewelcrafting.. If you actually play or have played Classic so far then you already know how many gold sellers camp and undercut each other on a hourly basis like a bunch of hyenas that never saw meat in their entire existence and since the gems require so much deposit for the AH then selling gems at AH will be practically impossible unless you are a filthy gold seller and you list gems every 2hours for the least deposit possible being ready to remove and re list the gems whenever undercut. At least, the positive side is that some gems are locked behind reputation levels and/or dungeons so not many gold sellers will be able to get them that fast or ever since they invest the least time for the most profit possible. p.s. huge emerald for example requires 5s for 2hrs and 60s for 24hrs deposit

Someone let this man know they nerf AOE farming in TBC.

[@xert9691]

Mage boosting gets nerfed. But pally only gets buffed. Pallys prob won't be able to do 300+ mob mara boosts, but a new instance with a new meta will arise.

[@bass-dc9175]

@@xert9691 Explanation for those who don't know why Pally boosting is getting "Buffed": With TBC, the maximum damage and AOE can do is capped to a certain number of targets. So if you have 10 mobs, you do full damage, but if you have 50 mobs, you do 1/5th of the damage per mob. The total damage stays the same. Paladins get around this, because their damage comes from Thorn effects. Which are not affected by the AOE cap, since it is just multiple instances of single-target damage. So they pull the entire instance, while healing themselves, give themselves Ret aura and the Tanking blessing, with a Thorned shield and just stand there watching the mobs kill themselves. Added bonus: You can actually boost a mage INSANELY quickly by doing this, but before you bomb the mobs, have the mage leave the group, start his AOE (he probably only gets the mobs to 85%) so he gets the main share of the xp. This was fixed later in WotlK, but it should be abusable in TBC.

[@d0k0night]

@@xert9691 The only restriction on Prot Pallies from a Mara boosting perspective is how many mobs they'll be able to grab, as they don't have Blizzard to pull the hydras in the water and many other areas where some form of AoE spell is needed. They also don't have blink to quickly move forward, but I'm confident that someone will find a way for Pallies to do Mara boosting and in the end, easier and far more forgiving compared to the Mage pull.

poeple under estimate AH flipping for a gold farm... i made over 2.5k gold this week, just buying and relisting items on AH

[@MadisonAdams619]

How do you know what to buy though?

[@cicballa]

@@MadisonAdams619 just by selling things in general you know when things are priced high and low. You would be surprised how many people there are that dont know the value of certain items and will list them lower then they typically sell for. I bought over 160 star rubies for less then their vendor price over the past 3 months... you can flip arcane crystals, as they fluctuate by 10-15g weekly, by low sell high

[@Kalameeto]

why would you want to farm gold in the first place? After your 280% owned the amount of gold you need is negligeable. It's not like vanilla, consumables are much cheaper, you don't need much in raid and you won't use them at all in pvp.

[@lukerides666]

[@m17a4y]

you will also be constantly getting upgrades which will need gems and enchants, not to mention if u have multiple specs for pve and pvp

[@Kalameeto]

@@m17a4y the gold provided by killing raid boss and doing bg daily is enough for that actually

[@d0k0night]

Ohhh you just wait. GDKP raids are going to require you to be holding hundreds of thousands of gold on your character. Here in Classic, people are casually dropping 6-10k per item. You're going to need gold, and a LOT of it.

[@Kalameeto]

@@d0k0night raids provide more items for 25 players instead of 40. Thus you'll get gear much faster and gdkp raids will be less uselful (and require less gold).

[@Lapouchy]

Wouldn't Druid bots render herbing more useless in TBC?

[@bass-dc9175]

Druids can not herb in flight form and open world botting tends to die out rather quickly, because bots do not like competition. It is more likely that Paladin Dungeon grinding bots will rise, similarly to Rogue farms in Blackrock Depth. (Serriously: type "/who Blackrock" to see how many rogue bots grind there).

[@bradley9191]

Half of what you say won't be in the game at launch

[@stanislavmegued554]

Man, you know nothing if you didn't even mention (dis)enchanting paired with crafting profession. If we use best case scenario for Primal farm as a benchmark (9 per hour if lucky), then bags go way up in the rating. 300-ish gold per hour with primals vs atleast 4 gold per 30 sec with bags. Considering you buy cloth off the AH. However, this is far from the best gold making route. According to my spreadsheets, ench + armorsmith yields the best profit, followed by ench + tailoring/JC. With the first pair income is at roughly 8 per minute, and it if extremely reliable. Ench + tailoring/JC yield less, but still in range of 400 per hour if you buy materials from AH. For alchemists there's also steady income at lower levels. Free Action Potions sell very well. Also ZG Living Action Potions might bring some nice profit if you actively advertise it
