How to Make Gold in World of Warcraft
If you are a beginner at World of Warcraft, one of the biggest problems you will face is how to get gold. You will need gold to buy equipment and other items to advance in the game. So what are you supposed to do to get gold?
The easiest way to get gold is to have the correct profession. The gathering professions such as mining, herbalism and skinning will make you money quickly. Even at the lower levels, you can gather up items and sell them at the auction houses for gold. If you have skinning as your profession, you can skin a dead animal and make leather to sell. A mining profession will allow you to gather copper and iron ores. These can be made into to bars to sell to the blacksmiths at the auction houses. The herbalism profession will allow you to gather various herbs that can be sold at the auction houses also. So as you can see, it is not that difficult to make gold in world of warcraft, but it can be time consuming.
Fishing is a good skill to have to make gold also. Certain types of fish are in high demand and can be sold in the auction house for a decent amount of gold. The great thing is that you can have more than one profession. So fishing can be a secondary profession in addition to mining.
You can also earn gold by finishing the quests. Try to do as many quests as possible to earn the most gold possible. It is a good idea to have more than one character. You can transfer important items back and forth between characters and you can also carry more items with more than one character.
Here is an important tip. Be nice to people that you do business with. Remember, as in the real world, you are in competition with other people in the game that are selling the same thing you are. If you have a reputation for being easy to deal with, you can make more money from repeat customers.
Be an expert on what you are selling. If one item has a lot more uses than another item, then the item that has more uses is probably going to sell a lot better. Also be aware of the markets. Learn what the item goes for on the average to keep yourself from getting taken.
These are just the basic steps to making gold on World of Warcraft. There are more detailed instructions available in Derek's Gold Guide and I recommend you pick it up as it will cut down on all the gold farming you have to do. Just like your real life, the more money that you have, the farther you will get. You can read my review of Derek's Gold Guide here.
