Tokens for gametime

Grandfathered
The new token system, allowing you to buy subscription time on dormant accounts, means you don't have to wait for a 10-day trial. Depending how much gold you have stashed and the pricing, I'm guessing some will be able to buy more than merely a month subscription. Incoming 19's and 29's?
 
It seems super expensive... we'll have to see. I think the market is about to crash. 20 bucks to get 30k gold seems like an insane deal if you can find a buyer. I imagine a lot of people will be doing this and the price per token is going to go way down. If that's the case I'll probably partake.
 
>Be F2P
>Buy Gametime one time only

>Make 30k gold in the subscription period
>Buy Token on AH
>Renew Subscription

>P2P as F2P

>19 Becomming even more active

Profit??

Keep repeating

Any gold making tips for lower levels to gain the gold for these? :)

Level your toons up to 90. Then go and do lv 60-70 raids.

They will obviously sell, the price depends on what server you are on.

I made ~23k last Saturday using that strategy. Try it.
 
I firmly agree with Hashbrowns that at the current price, they are marked up more than what you can buy gold for at market value.

It will be a gamble to see if enough people will pay over market for the safety and legality of the Token over the common gold seller.
 
This sounds like quantitative easing with no limitations or guidance from a central governing body. It could cause rampant inflation if it takes off and that means your hard-earn gold buys a lot less.

It's times like this, I wish I paid more attention in economics classes.

(Also, it's times like this, I wish I paid more attention to the AH.)

How long did the raids take you? I find my 90 is too slow, when I see level 100s doing 5k gold an hour.

Well, as a 90, they took me (all of em) , like ~4-5 hours. You will definetly earn gold , from loots and bosses .

Yeah, since 6.0 the legacy buff is nuts. Pretty easy to solo.

Do you rely on selling transmogs on AH or is it just looted gold and vendoring all items?

I just vendored them, i never sell stuff THAT is NEVER going to sell on AH, so its a waste of time i think.

Anyway, another strat, with this you can make even more, (prob like 40k a day).
You don't need WoD for this, cause you buy something taht costs 2k for a thing that sells for 4.5-5k (server based).

Ha, sitting at the computer playing a game for 5 hours just to be able to play the game some more.
You guys are doing it all wrong.
I will direct you nice forum, but you are not allowed to act immature as many people do here. If you are interested. PM me since you at least seem interested in making WoW gold.

/cheers

PS I'm am serious.

Gold farming as 90 is really pain: time consuming, boring as hell. Collecting 30k gold takes around 2 weeks, it's hard work (2k per days), if you have life too. :p Not worth it! 30k gold is ridiculously cheap for a level 100 character, but painfully expensive for a 90.

Here are some numbers:

You can solo BC 25 and WOTLK 10 raids in epic gear, but these have WEEKLY RESET.

RAIDS:

Black Temple
1 hour
570 gold
600 Netherweave Cloth (AH price: ~50 gold per 200 stack)

Serpentshrine Cavern
30 mins
300 gold
50 Netherweave Cloth

Karazhan
50 mins
400 gold
150 Netherweave Cloth

Sunwell Plateau
45 mins
500 gold
100 Netherweave Cloth

Naxxramas
1 hour
900 gold
Frostweave Cloth (AH price: ~200 gold per 200 stack)

There are several short raids, like:

Magtheridon's Lair
3 mins
30 gold

Gruul's Lair
4 mins
40 gold

Crusaders' Coliseum
15 mins
190 gold

The Nexus
3 mins
50 gold

The Obsidian Sanctum
less then 5 mins
100 gold

The Ruby Sanctum
7 mins
90 gold

etc.

Some raids are annoying, like: Ulduar, Onyxia's Lair.

You can't solo CATA raids! If you have 500+ gear, maybe you can kill the thrash mobs only, but not the bosses.

DUNGEONS are repeatable, 10 runs per hour is the limit. Here is some:

Lost City of the Tol'vir CATA
6-7 mins
90-100 gold
repeatable: 1 hour ~ 900 gold

Gundrak WOTLK
5 mins
50-70 gold
repeatable: 1 hour ~ 600 gold

Only heroic dungeons of BC are even effective, but these have 1 hour reset. Completing them in turn, could be a good strategy, but requires lots of traveling.

PETS:

Pets drop in RAIDS, but if you think you can sell them for 5k each, you are wrong. If you are lucky, you will get 1500-3000 for a new pet. The price of the old pets between 10 and 300 gold. Most of the time other players will undercut you, and your auction will be expired. You will be forced to lower the price.

PROFESSIONS:

Production professions are completely useless at 90, forget them. For example, jewelcrafting: you can create rings, necklaces, trinkets, gems. All trash. Nobody will buy anything from you. Maybe if you put these on AH for 1-2 gold. :p Usually this doesn't help either. Only collecting professions profitable: skinning, herbalism and mining.

Collecting materials requires a fast flying mount (neither riding skills nor flying licenses are cheap). Not all materials are in demand: for example Fel Iron Ore is always sellable, but Adamantite Ore isn't. Cobalt ore is always sellable, but Saronite Ore isn't.

Collecting 200 minerals takes around 45-60 mins. The leveling materials are the important ones.

Fel Iron Ore, Cobalt Ore: 1200-1500 gold (always sell)
Adamantite Ore, Saronite Ore: 600-800 gold (barely sell)
Obsidium Ore: 1000-1200 gold (always sells)
Elementium Ore 800-1000 gold (sometimes sell)
Ghost Iron Ore 150-300 gold (there are too many in AH)

Conclusion: if you want be rich, you should buy the latest expansion (it's WoD currently), level & gear up 100 characters, build up their garrisons. Complete garrison missions, clear out CATA raids, do crafting professions (jewelcrafting, enchanting), etc.
 
Is it allowed to ask for a "safe" gold selling site?

I imagine their prices will drop quite a bit once the WoW token hits.
