This is a preparation guide to make gold in the upcoming expansion.
Choosing Professions
Before I get into anything, I want to say one thing. We will only be talking about PRIMARY PROFESSIONS and how they will do during the BEGINNING of the expansion. Any and every end game character can have max Archaeology, Cooking, First Aid and Fishing. The only choice required by these is whether or not you want to learn them.
There is one very important thing to take note of, because many professions require it to make most of the better crafts. The new crafting material, http://legion.wowhead.com/item=124124/blood-of-sargeras , is BoP.
Needed to craft almost 200 different items so far, http://legion.wowhead.com/item=124124/blood-of-sargeras is going to be in high demand during Legion.
Early Expansion Gold Rush
It is very beneficial to plan out which professions to have on the first few characters that you level. This choice will set the pace of your ability to make gold at the single most profitable time of any expansion, the beginning.
I should mention why this is. There are two big reasons.
The first is that these items are going to be new. The first person to put something on the Auction House is going to do it very quickly and the price is going to be insanely high. And people will buy them, because supply for these items is going to be insanely low. People will be leveling professions, they will need these items. And so they will pay these prices.
The second reason has to do with raiding guilds. Many of the top end raiding guilds start selling clears of the raid once they have finished gearing up through it. Using a current example, there are a few guilds who are selling a full clear of Hellfire Citadel on Mythic for one million gold. These guilds will have plenty of gold to spend. And they will spend it on anything that will give them an edge on clearing the new raid first.
These two points will work together to keep prices very high for a while. This will last until the general population of the server starts supplying these items at an increased rate. It’s a perfect example of supply and demand causing prices to change over a period of time.
Joining The Gold Rush
Now, I have a simple question that I ask people that come to me asking for WoW gold advice.
Q:Who got rich during the California gold rush?
A:The people that sold the miners their supplies. (Shovels)
Yes, some people did find gold and end up very, very rich. But that is a risk. You need to decide which part of the gold rush you want to be part of.
Do you want to gather herbs, leather and ore and sell them at a high price on the AH? Do you want to sell the shovels?
Or do you want to buy the herbs and ore and try to sell the crafts that you can make from them? Do you want to buy the shovel and try for a bigger payoff?
You could even do both. The choice is yours.
