↖ Season of Discovery Economy Works
Various activities drive the in-game economy such as:
- Quests: Completing quests and incursions.
- Vendoring Items: Selling useless quest items and grade drops.
- Incursions: Collecting gold directly from mobs.
When selling valuable items like leather, cloth and herbs; The Auction House takes up most part in this system. To maximize your time and profit consider doing activities that give back more than others.
↖ Intrusions Spam
Incursions are a fast method to get gold:
- Hinterlands Incursions (Alliance): Join a train of players running a circuit to kill bosses and complete escorts.
- Gold Earned: About 25 gold every 15 minutes.
- Group Size: More effective with larger groups (8+ players).
- Attention Required: Minimal; follow the group.
↖ How Do You Flip Items For Profit On Auction House?
There are two main strategies in the auction house:
1. Flipping Items For Profit
- Market Knowledge: Understand what items people want and how much they’re willing to pay for them.
- Risk Management: Know that buying low and selling high involves more risk than buying low and vendoring.
-
Example: Soul Dust
- Buying Price: 16 silver.
- Selling Price: 50-80 silver.
- Profit Margin: Significant if bought at low prices and sold at peak prices.
2. Crafting For Profit
- Purchase Materials: Buy materials off of the AH that are cheap enough to still turn a profit when crafting an item with them later.
- Craft Items: Use those materials to make something that people want or need but don’t want to spend time farming themselves (like potions, enchants, etc.).
- Sell Crafted Items: List your crafted goods at a price higher than what it cost you in mats but lower than what other crafters are listing theirs for so yours will sell first.
3. Tools For Monitoring Prices
Using price monitoring tools like JPWorgen can help you track item prices and market trends:
- Price Trends - Observe historical price data to identify buying/selling opportunities.
- Current Prices - Check current market prices before making investment decisions.
↖ How To Craft Items For Profit On The Auction House?
If done right, you can earn a lot by crafting and selling items in the Auction House. Here's what you need to do:
Spot Profitable Items | Create Green Silk Armor using an enchanter as this produces a large amount of Soul Dust when disenchanted. |
Cost Evaluation | Each bolt of silk cloth is about 13.74 silver. It would cost around 60 silver to craft a piece of Green Silk Armor. |
Profit Calculation | Disenchanting Green Silk Armors give 2-5 Soul Dusts which sell for 40-50 silver each. You would still have made 20 silver per soul dust even if it was the lowest number that dropped. |
Mass Production | Buy silk cloth in bulk during low price periods so that you can raise your profit margin |
Alternative Crafting | The current best choice is tailoring; however, keep an eye out for leatherworking such as Hillman's Gloves which may present an opportunity in future. |
↖ Uldaman Farm
Uldaman is one of the most lucrative places to farm for valuable materials. This guide will show you how step by step:
- Best Class: Hunters are recommended because they deal well with mobs quickly.
- Running Strategy: Focus on animal trash packs that can be skinned – each run takes about twelve minutes.
- Loot Drops: On average expect to get around one hundred medium leather, two hundred heavy leather and one hundred thick leather per hour along with greens and some mithril/iron ore
- Extra Money Making Methodology: Sell Uldaman runs or loot rights to other players for additional gold (5-10g per instance)
↖ Devilsaur Leather Farm
Farming Devilsaur Leather in Un'Goro Crater is another lucrative method. These are the steps involved:
- Whereabouts: Head over to Un'Goro Crater where there are lots of devilsaurs but not too many people camping them.
- Farming Technique: Duo with a friend to make it faster and split the leather
- Amount: In two hours you can kill around 20-30 devilsaurs which will give you about fifteen leathers.
- Profitability: Each Devilsaur Leather sells for around twenty gold making it three hundred gold in total for two hours work!
By following these strategies, you can significantly boost sod gold reserves. Focus on crafting profitable items, efficiently farming high-value locations, and optimizing your Auction House activities to maximize your earnings.
