19 Surprising TBC Gold Farms That Actually Work

hey guys what's up it's toy house here so i've seen a few of you asking me to make a burning crusade gold making guide so i figured i would look all over the internet for everything i could find on making golden tbc and put this guide together so in tbc there are some huge expenses like your epic flying mount and while i won't be suggesting making a craigslist ad to make gold i've got some other pretty good ideas to share so in this guide you'll see a lot of professions have the ability to make gold so if you're interested in learning more about professions be sure to check out my profession guide link in the description below and if you learn anything at all from this guide i'd appreciate if you give the video a like so with that said let's just jump right into the top 20 list so first up coming in at number 20 we've got skinning and vendoring leather while leveling so while leveling you'll without a doubt be killing a bunch of beasts at some point skinning in tbc like in vanilla integrates with what you're already doing for that reason lots of people choose skinning as a profession even if they're trying to get to max level as fast as they can and since so many people are going skinning that usually drives down the price of leather on the auction house supply and demand so in most cases it's usually just better to vendor the leather that you're skinning while leveling this isn't always the case of course so compare the vendor price to auction house price before you make any moves i recommend auctioneer and vendor price add-ons so you know what you're doing it will really help with gold making with this method so and really gold making in general when questing you know which items to sell for more with vendor price add-on so you can choose what item you want in cases where you can't use either quest reward for example so those add-ons are super helpful all right up next is number 19 white items while leveling now there are a bunch of items that are white in terms of rarity and you just look at it and you're like what what the what the heck is this even used for usually just vendored i know i used to so some items like savage frond for example drop off mobs and can actually sell for way more than their vendor price and there are a bunch so i'm going to go through a few of them with you we've got wicked claw which is actually used for wolf's head helm which is a very nice druid elm you've got nether web spider silk which is a new addition in the burning crusade and which is used for a bunch of high level tailoring recipes but all spider silk is actually valuable as you level for different professions large fang is great for great and mighty rage potions you've got icker of on death for alchemy elemental earth water fire and air all sell quite well some more valuable than others of course and then there's fused wiring i actually farmed this one myself at level 40 on a private server and i got the gold needed for my mount really really quick these are in high demand because of all the engineering recipes it's used in so there are a bunch of white items that potentially could sell for quite a bit so i would do some research if you see a white item just mail it to your bank alt throw it up on the auction house chances are it's worth more to on the auction house than it is to vendors so definitely keep an eye on that as you're leveling all right next up at number 18 is questing at level 70. now this may come to a surprise to some of you but quests give you more gold instead of experience points when you're max level uh for private server fresh realms this could definitely be a good method some of the other methods will make you gold quicker this is only number 18 but it might be a little bit more mind-numbing so this is more of a fun way to make gold while still doing quests and having some direction or if you're into lore reading the quests and it could be a change of pace from other farming methods so if you do all of shadow moon valley and netherstorm while already level 70 that should net you actually at least one to two thousand gold so this is a an often overlooked gold making method um that could definitely be fruitful if other gold forming farming methods are just completely over farmed too competitive you're on a pvp server uh it's definitely an option to make quite a bit of gold all right coming in at number 17 is daily quests so in the burning crusade daily quests were added uh you can find daily quests in schedus enterocar forest over la in blade's edge mountains the isle of quel'denas in shattrath and tarot carr forest these will get a little mind-numbingly boring because they're the same every day of course as rotation but they're a good source of gold there's only a limited number of daily quests right you've got battleground dailies cooking dailies fishing dailies dungeon dailies heroic dungeon dailies hellfire peninsula dailies world pvp dailies i mentioned ogrila dailies you've got shitari sky guard dailies nether wing dailies and shattered sun offensive dailies you've got a lot of dailies to do so maybe it doesn't get too boring but if you've done it a few times i'm sure it will start to get repetitive um and you know let's not forget seasonal dailies you've got brew fest hollows end and mid summer fire festival dailies so you're gonna get a decent amount of gold per daily again not the fastest method but it's an easy one to check off your list each day all right coming in at number 16 spell cloth primal moon cloth or shadow cloth so each of these will go anywhere from maybe 20 to 20 to 40 gold depending on your server's supply and demand crafting it is on about a four day cooldown which makes these items valuable however because of the cooldown this isn't a gold making strategy that can be like massed or farmed but it's just another stream of gold for you every so often kind of like dailies but this is more of like every four days daily or something like that right so not the best but it's a good amount of money with not too much effort all right number 15 nether weave bags so you'll need tailoring to make them but everyone needs decent bags and people will usually have multiple characters these usually go for anywhere from seven to 16 gold a pop depending on supply and demand this will vary and more often than not they're actually an oversupply so the price tends to be on the cheaper side still most people will be buying these so you can definitely net some profit like i said you know the burning crusade has shaken up class balance a bit so people might be re-rolling they want alternate characters just so they can experience certain things you know druid flight forms a lot of fun so maybe they just want to roll that alt professions have become much more powerful and meaningful in the burning crusade so having alternate characters to have all access to all those professions is another reason to make an alternate character and you'll need those bags so lots of reasons why people will be buying these again supply and demand they're not too hard to make so usually the price is driven down all right coming up at number 14 crafting gems so gems are needed for gear with sockets you can make a lot of money as a jewel crafter just buying gems off the auction house cutting them and then relisting them so this one's not only lucrative but it's also pretty easy to do and you know it won't always be possible to profit depending on you know the gem prices and how much you can sell the cut gem for but look for deals where it makes sense and take advantage of your jewel crafting skill again if you need insight on on that i have got a profession guide you can check that out but it's an easy way to stay within you know the city and just make gold utilizing your profession okay number 13. now i i think that most people did not know about this i actually found out about it myself just looking online and it seems pretty legit so number 13 is farming scholomance as an enchanter now there are quite a few items in scolo that are still valuable in tbc mainly dark runes and then you can also disenchant blues and epics and there's a lot of runecloth the main thing really that you're farming here are dark runes when used dark runes restore mana at the cost of health these are used by serious raiders at end game and sell for a decent chunk of change while farming dark ruins you will never inevitably pick up a lot of runecloth and many greens and blues the cloth you can sell directly on the auction house or make into bolts and sell disenchant the blues and greens and sell the enchanting mats high level vanilla enchanting mats go for quite a bit because you know not many people are taking the time to farm them the large brilliant shards which are these these actually are used to make brilliant wizard oils and brilliant mana oil uh weapon coatings so these are also two more items that raiders use now of course with shadow priests becoming you know basically mana batteries we've got shamans available now for the alliance mana is not as big of an issue so maybe this method is not as powerful as the others it is number 13 though because you are getting a lot of runecloth you're getting some nice disenchanting mats and you're also getting dark runes so you're getting a lot for your time and what's better is that you aren't really going to be facing any competition and that is a big thing with uh the burning crusade is that it's a smaller land mass and a lot of farming methods are going to have a lot of competition so keep that in mind all right number 12 boe epics so the burning crusade has added a lot of high quality craftable items most of these require the crafter to have a primal nether as well as having the recipes themselves which can be world drops specific instance drops or in rare cases trainable higher level recipes that drop from raids will often require the crafter to have nether vortex some examples of items are gyro balanced quarium destroyer hardquarium band cobra scale hood the frozen shadow we've set spellfire set the gloves of the living touch to name a few and then there are also boe epics that drop that are extremely high value like blade of wizardry the night watchman and charlotte's ivy all of which actually drop in tempest keep so if you're super lucky and you want to be going for these you know you can make a lot of gold if you get the the drop and you win it however it is tough to get it to drop and then to win the roll so this farming method well it's easier to repeat over and over because it's usually you know it's in an instance or you're you're crafting these epics uh it's hard to it's kind of like you're just getting that one item getting that one sale making a lot of gold all at once so that's that method moving on to number 11 we've got moat extractor farming so you need to be an engineer for this one but you can actually make a lot of gold using this method especially if uncontested the moats are extracted from gas clouds in various locations and outland so clouds in zangar marsh will supply you moats of water those in nagrin have moats of air shadow moon valley has moats of shadow and nether storm has moats of mana the clouds spawn in the same locations for the most part and you'll quickly learn some efficient paths to take for each type of moat after a little bit of flying around and you know really what makes this farming method so great is that it's really not recommended unless you have an epic flying mount so if your goal is to make enough gold to buy your epic flying mount then this method isn't really best for you it's better to stick to some of the other methods but because this method is best for people with epic flying that means it's more exclusive and less competitive meaning that you can make more money with it so keep that in mind all right number 10 scrire and alder rep items so we've got fel armament mark of sargeras arcane tome and sun fury cygnet these alder and scryer reputation items will definitely sell for a lot more so during launch or shortly after while everyone is rushing to get exalted with the alder and squires you can get foul armaments and marks of sargeras off demon forces and you can get arcane tomes and sun fury signets off blood elf forces and if you specifically want to farm the elder marks legion hold in shadow moon valley is a good place to go this is a nice method usually you know people can't be everywhere so you should be able to find some place where you can get these items and of course dungeons that have demon or blood elf forces will also drop this so it's an added bonus and uh basically you you're gonna need to strike while the iron is hot so to speak launch or shortly after while everyone is grinding this rep surely these will drop in price over time all right number nine herbalism so this one is probably pretty obvious but lots of herbs sell for a lot so far in vanilla this is the case it's going to be true in the burning crusade mana thistle fell lotus mountain silver sage fellaweed rag vale ancient lickin these are all herbs that are needed to make best in slot flasks elixirs and potions so if you pick up herbalism be sure to grab these herbs and list them on the auction house for great profit there's really nothing more to be said there if you want some routes i have some of those laid out in my profession guide all right number eight mining so like herbalism or in bars sell for a lot in tbc this is kind of the obvious ones obvious gold making ones of course you've got quarium bars eternium bar eternium ore corium or adamantite bar and or fel iron iron bores per or in bars pretty much all of these will sell for a good price and an added bonus with mining is that you can also sell gems that you find from mining such as telesite star of elune living ruby noble topaz dawn stone and knight's eye these uncut gems are valuable even more so if you're a jewel crafter and can cut them into gems that can then be inserted into gear so what's really good about mining is that these reagents are used for blacksmithing engineering and jewelcrafting so definitely a great profession for making gold alright moving on to number seven fishing and cooking and i know you guys are probably like what could possibly be better than mining and herbalism how could fishing and cooking possibly be better now i think it's because it is so widely overlooked and so therefore less people will be able to supply these materials so you know a lot of people overlook fishing and cooking because the time commitment needed to level fishing and cooking but there are a ton of high level items that come from fishing and cooking these include deviate fish for savory deviate delight which sells for about 70 silver a pop you got fig luster's mud fish which is used for grilled mudfish which sells for about 80 silver a pop you got furious crawdad for spicy crawdad at one gold 20 silver a pop you got golden darter for golden fish sticks at a gold 25 each huge spotted fell tail for fishermen's feast at a gold 20 each icefin bluefish for poached bluefish at 90 silver a pop and last zangarian sporefish for blackened sporefish at 90 silver pop and by the way one huge spotted fel tail creates six fisherman's feasts so a single fish is worth about five gold and that's being conservative so that is a pretty great return on investment on catching a single fish and of course guys actual prices will vary uh i was just using sort of ballpark numbers based on what i'm seeing on the auction house so fishing and cooking a great combination if you just have fishing your profits will be less but if you have both your profits will be more all right moving on to number six cobra scales and thick cleft hoof leather these materials are super valuable for crafting some great items and it's pretty hard to get cobra scales so if you have skinning make sure to target cobra scales and thick cleft hoof leather the thick cleft hoof lever leather goes for about five gold a pop and the cobra scales go for about 11 to 13 gold a pop and of course your mileage may vary and there are of course other leathers that are still valuable so if you're skinning definitely make sure to check out the the auction house to see how much they're going for outland leathers you skin are definitely valuable for other recipes so make sure once you hit outland to keep your leather stop vendoring and check the auction house and again your mileage may vary you know the prices i'm saying here are just what i'm seeing right now and your supply and demand on your specific server will definitely determine what prices actually are okay moving on to number five nether cobra leg armor now nether cobra leg armor is the best in slot pant enchantment for physical damage dealing dps classes like rogues hunters warriors feral druids and so on this leg enchantment will go for hundreds of gold on the auction house so if you've gathered cobra scales as a skinner and have leather working to craft these this will seamlessly tie together your professions to make another cobra leg armor you're gonna need four heavy not hide leather four cobra scales eight primal air and a primal nether now i've mentioned primal nether a few times it's about time i probably explain how you get that right so primal nether drops actually a hundred percent of the time off the last boss of a heroic version of a dungeon so you won't always win the primal nether of course so getting them can be a little tricky which explains why this can sell for so much um sometimes if you're a tank you can reserve these beforehand you know if tanks are in high demand so keep that in mind if you want to pursue this gold making strategy if you're a tank and a skinner and a leather worker perhaps you have a great advantage to capitalize on this gold making method all right coming in at number four we have flasks elixirs and transmutes basically alchemy right alchemy has a bunch of flasks elixirs and transmutes that people are willing to pay a lot of money for you've got flask of fortification flask of relentless assault flask of distilled wisdom flask of chromatic wonder elixir of healing power elixir of draeneic wisdom transmute earth stone diamond and so on more and more there are lots and lots and lots of alchemical flasks elixirs and transmutes potions healing potions um different types of resistance potions there are so many that need to be bought especially in the burning crusade in order to progress and you know coming from you know classic wow vanilla wow i'm sure you know alchemists can can you know say how much money they've made selling fire resistance potion nature resistance potions and it just goes on and on as you go through aq you need nature resistance as you go to next you need frost resistance and really the same thing continues as you progress through other other raids like black temple and the amount of potions elixirs flasks and transmutes that are needed are essentially endless you're constantly going to be needing it so alchemy is a huge huge huge money-making profession there are so many advantages to going alchemy so definitely a top one on this list all right moving on to number three we have primal farming now this one is infamous probably not anything new to hardcore veterans of the burning crusade primal farming is probably the most known gold making strategy so i'm going to go through it really quick you know you can go to kieran var village another storm for primal manas the mobs here respond extremely fast and the area can probably support upwards of five people at the same time and if you can't kill things fast enough though it can be a bit nasty for casters as they have spell reflect and mana burn so this area is best for physical damage dealers that don't cast spells or use mana so really rogues and warriors do best here you can also go to scald and blade's edge mountain for primal fires usually there are a lot of people here and the respawn rate isn't great there are a lot of mobs that also aren't fire elementals so keep that in mind this area can probably support around three or four people if you uh if you can get this area to yourself though that would be ideal you could also go to the elemental plateau inaugurand negrand for primal fires primal waters and primal airs i'm laughing because this place is wildly over farmed i mean epically and historically over farmed i can't stress enough i mean it's probably infamous the second i said elemental plateau for those of you that know tbc you probably just like laughed i mean it is um it's right next to shattrath city so it's super easy to get to um you know the reason this area is so beastly is the fact that if you get it alone you can probably get eight or nine maybe even 10 primals an hour if you have it by yourself which probably would never happen unless you find a time at like 4 a.m or something when the area is completely empty and you make crazy serious money here you know there's there's if you're on a pvp server you know most most likely you're gonna run into confrontations uh it's a it's probably one of it is the best primal farming spot uh spawn rate wise but the competition will be fierce the hand of gul'dan in shadow moon valley is another place for primal fires and primal fire is needed for enchants and profession items like the spell fire set and primal airs needed for best in slot enchants and a number of profession items as well so uh for primal water you can go to schedus in tarot car forest this is generally the best all-around spot for primal waters in my experience the only downside is that they're all under water which slows you down of course because of your swim speed i don't really find farming primal lifes or primal earth particularly profitable at all if you specifically need these primals you are far better off spending your time farming the more profitable ones selling those and then buying the primals that you actually need generally in my experience primals are really one of the best money makers when it comes to farming but if all spots are filled you know completely over farmed then you're better off farming something else so there you go that is number three and now we are moving on to number two what could possibly be better than primal farming boosting so i predict that if blizzard does not intervene boosting will continue to be one of the best ways to make money in the burning crusade with class balance getting shaken up from vanilla players will probably be wanting to re-roll or create alternate characters with professions getting super buffed and more important in the expansion having more characters with more professions will be even more rewarding all that in my opinion leads to more people wanting boosts so if you really want to bring in the money make a character that can boost protection paladins or mages are super efficient at boosting at lockout speed it's super profitable in classic wow right now and i predict only more of the same in the burning crusade the gold from four party members and a loot from the mobs combined make this method one of the top gold making strategies all right the moment you all have been waiting for number one the best money making gold making strategy in wow tbc according to my prediction and i i think that it is auction house flipping buying low and selling high if you can find opportunities using the auction house you don't even need to farm you don't even have to leave the city you can just buy and sell all while staying inside the auction house so if you do this right i think you can easily make incredible amounts of gold and you know this involves timing the market supply and demand you know you can put consumables up before tuesday raid reset day so you're taking advantage of supply and demand buying when the supply is high and the demand is low selling when the demand is high in the supply is low you know using these methods you know you can really make a ton of profit now i don't want to pretend that i know the ins and outs of auction house flipping but for those that do i don't think there's a faster way to make gold it has incredible scalability you can buy in bulk sell in bulk this i i can't tell you how to do it necessarily but i know that it is absolutely the number one best way to make gold so that's it for my top 20 list what did you guys think about these gold making methods are there ones that i missed that you think are better are there some that i listed that you think are garbage let me know in the comments below i love hearing from you guys um you know it's it's absolutely awesome talking about tbc and hearing what you guys you know think or have experienced yourself so you know as always guys if you learned absolutely anything from this guide i'd appreciate if you gave the video a like and subscribe if you want more world of warcraft content i really appreciate you guys coming and spending some time with me today so take care and i will see you next time this has been toy house see you next time [Music] oh you
