General Making Gold With Your Twinks

Naxxramaskid

Everybody Hates Naxxkid
Hello fellow twinks. My name is Naxxramaskid and I am mostly known for playing a 70 priest for 8 years straight, producing and starring in shady low budged Bollywood flicks and accidentally selling the reins of the swift spectral tiger for 699 gold.

Let's begin with the guide!

This guide is mostly aimed towards players that spend a lot of time on their twinks and don't have the legion expansion or much gold in their pocket.

All pictures have been taken on a ghetto toaster with no video card. I will re-do the screenshots in a week or two when I have time to build a gaming computer.

All profession items listed in this guide are cheap to craft and yield high profits. As example I would never suggest to craft an item such as the sulfuron hammer which costs a lot to craft,takes weeks to sell and yields a small profit.

None of the items will sell instantly.



19 and up
Zone: Wetlands
Method: Farming
Item Type: Pet
Requirements: None

At 19 I would suggest farming the ebon whelps in wetlands. Those npcs have a chance to drop the dark whelpling pet (US price ~11043g) and the tiny crimson whelpling pet (US price ~20000g)

Alternatively you could farm the the dragonmaw whelpstealers and ebon slavehunters. Those mobs have a near instant respawn rate but only drop the Tiny Crimson Whelpling.



20 and up
Zone: Auction House
Method: Crafting
Item Type: Quest Mats
Requirements: Engineering 225

My favorite way of making gold. 6 crafted engineering items are required for the 2 specialization quests goblin engineering,gnomish engineering and believe me a lot of players rather pay a good chunk of gold for said items than having to figure out which raw materials are required.

The items you will have to craft are:
explosive sheep (by far the best seller)
solid dynamite
big iron bomb
advanced target dummy
mithril tube
accurate scope

The crafting cost per item shouldn't exceed 15 gold. I always list the items for 990 gold buyout and usually sell 6 to 12 per day.



29 and up
Zone: Feralas
Method: Farming
Item Type: Pet
Requirements: None

At 29 I would suggest farming the noxious whelps in feralas. Those npcs have a chance to drop the emerald whelpling pet (US price ~22250g).



49 and up
Zone: Blasted Lands
Method: Farming Rare Spawns
Item Type: Bind on Equip Items
Requirements: Alt that is at least level 54

At 49 I would suggest farming the rare spawns in blasted lands. The rare spawns drop a)flawless draenethyst sphere or b)imperfect draenethyst fragment. Turning in a) rewards 1 rare or epic boe item while turning in b) rewards 1 common boe item. While most boes aren't worth much some items are highly sought after transmog pieces. As example I have sold chan's imperial robe for 120'000 gold.

Cloth: Keep chans imperial robes (the mother of all boe transmog items) and all common robes with the spider graphic.
Leather: Keep all the eye-patch items.
Mail: I've never had much success selling mail items. Maybe keep the pieces that belong the the warmonger and the lord set or at least the chest and gloves of said sets.
Plate: Keep all pieces that belong to the overlord,revenant or the heavy lamellar set. Especially the overlord pieces are great sellers.
Weapons: Keep everything that isn't a ranged weapon,polearm or common quality.



49 and up
Zone: Swamp of Sorrows, Winterspring
Method: Farming
Item Type: Pet
Requirements: None



2 pets can be farmed at this level range. In swamp of sorrows we have the disgusting oozeling pet (US price ~14000). This pet is a great seller due to the fact that when summoned the pets aura turns the owner green. Contrary to all other pets on this list the oozling drops from a bag that is obtained by killing the shifting mireglob npcs.

In winterspring we have the azure whelpling pet (US price ~26000). While the pet drops from many mobs in winterspring I would suggest farming the ice thistle patriarchs which have a fast respawn rate.



70 and up
Zone: Sethekk Halls
Method: Instance Resetting
Item Type: Ore
Requirements: Mining 375

*Engineering is required for max profit.
*Mining can be leveled by smelting ores. The exception is skill 340-350 which has to be leveled by mining adamantite ore.
*The downside to this nice money maker is that you will be locked out from doing dungeons on your other toons.

Another one of my all time favorite gold makers is farming khorium ore in sethekk halls. Khorium is an insanely rare ore that is needed for various still relevant items such as the engineering flying mounts.

The great thing about sethekk halls is that the instance has 3 possible spawn points for a khorium vein and all three spawn points can be seen on the minimap after entering the dungeon.
The idea is to enter the dungeon/check the mini map for a khorium vein/run out/reset/rinse and repeat x10.(Personally I ignore the adamantite veins)
While khorium-bars (US price ~950) sell for a lot the profit per ore can be increased by having an engineer turn 1 bar and 1 primal fire into a khorium power core (US price ~ 3900)

I will be adding more ways to make gold in a future update. (Farming arcane crystals or resetting the market on gold/silver bars comes to mind)

I've never seen any khorium veins :(
I'm getting about 1.3 per 10 resets.

Ok I definitely changed my mind about adamantite veins. (Thank's to some juicy hardened adamantite tube sales for 3.5k each)

Mine all the adamantite veins (near the entrance) while checking the instance for khorium ore.

Via smelting turn 10 adamantite bar into 1 hardened adamantite bar and then via engineering turn said item into 1 hardened adamantite tube.
 
dud is easy make gold just you need got mark of honor and buy banners | 1= 25g GG !

Nice
 
Explosive sheep and the other items are required to become gnomish or goblin engineer. (via a quest)
number of people who want to level engee is very limited.
people don't need gnomish or goblin engee in order to use any items.
everyone craft explosive sheep as part of leveling to 225.

Gnomish and Goblin engineering are needed to craft and equip particular toys and make different mounts, which lead to people wanting the specialization.
