Essential Addons

Before we get into the gritty details of gold farming, let's talk about some addons which can improve your efficiency by leaps and bounds. While these tools might not be compulsory, there are various reasons why they could potentially be worth their weight in gold:

Vendor Price This handy alternative comes recommended if you don't use ElvUI though has this built-in feature.
Auctionator This tool makes everything easy selling low and buying high without getting lost in trade intricacies.
GatherMate2 (Classic) For gatherers out there, it's like a gift from god. It tracks where all resource nodes are located across your map so that no precious herb or ore deposit goes unseen.

 

Though they're not necessary for everyone trying to make money, serious players should definitely consider these richly rewarding addons.

 

Gathering Professions

As people start their adventures with gathering trinity i.e., Skinning, Mining, and Herbalism. These professions serve as cash cows (literally speaking for miners) when leveling up. If however it suits you better feel free changing over at level 25 into crafting profession like Blacksmithing ,Tailoring or Leatherworking.

Bear in mind that materials obtained via gathering are in high demand during the Season of Discovery because of the addition of  Waylaid Supply Crates Waylaid Supplies. Everyone needs Medium Leather these days; not just Leatherworkers anymore!

 

Quest Items

These are some quest items that drop while leveling that one should not overlook. Many times they sell for quite a lot at the auction house. The demand for gathered items has gone up in the Season of Discovery due to Waylaid supply crates. As a result, more people now need such things as medium leather and herbs, which can be sold for a big profit.

 

Fishing Profession

Fishing is not to be underestimated. Fish themselves can cost quite a bit, but treasures like Ironbound Locked Chest Ironbound Locked Chest Iconmight contain trade goods or even Bind on Equip (BoE) items. Sometimes Lady Luck may smile upon you enough to fish out from the Weather-Beaten Journal an expensive Journeyman's Backpack.

 

Best NPCs 

Here is a list of NPCs that drop good loot:

  • Defias Bandits (Westfall): They drop cloth, green BoEs.
  • Stone Splinter Bone Snappers (Loch Modan): They drop Clay Talismans.
  • Witch Wing Slayers (The Barrens): Their feathers sell well on AH.
  • Rot Hide Gnolls (Silverpine Forest): There is a lot of wool cloth available from these.
  • Bluegill Murlocs (Wetlands): Their fins are for questing and you can find pearls in clams.
  • Galak Scouts (Thousand Needles): They have a high green BoE drop rate, but it’s contested.

 

Questing

Once you hit level 25, questing becomes an even more lucrative endeavor as each turn-in will offer substantial gold rewards. This is a path worth pursuing, however be strategic; if you do all the quests now, by the time phase 2 increases the level cap to 40 there won't be any left for you.

 

Auction House

The secret to WoW Classic riches lies in the auction house. Here is where Auctionator really shines. You can manipulate the auction house using Auctionator:

  • Search for undervalued items like recipes and buy them out.
  • Put them back up for sale at a higher price point to turn around and make some money.
  • Monitor those that undercut your prices so as to amend them accordingly.

Use it to corner markets on popular recipes and items; for instance buying out underpriced Elixir of Coalesced Regret Elixir of Coalesced Regret Icon and relisting at a higher price can turn a tidy profit. While this strategy takes patience and a good eye for market trends, it can pay off hugely.
