Having played World of Warcraft for nearly 4 years, I have compiled a list of 10 best World of Warcraft gold farming strategies.

1. Each profession in World of Warcraft is unique and gold can be made through every one of them. However, if you want a CONSTANT flow of gold coming in, ‘gathering’ professions are always better ‘crafting’ professions.

2. Vendor all the ‘grey’ items (duh!) you find while leveling, send the rest to an alternative character, and post them onto the Auction House.

3. We all know how well Dusts and Essences sell in the Auction House, instead of vendoring or auctioning the greens that you find, tip an Enchanter to disenchant them and sale the dusts and Essences.

4. Using addons, the Blizzard interface is fine, but addons that adds additional information such as Gatherer and Auctioneer helps tons.

5. Become a supplier for “crafters” in top guilds in your Realm. These chumps go through mats like water, they are constantly in demand. Even selling them at a lower price will benefit you in the long run.

6. A tip when mining, Silver refill Tin nodes. Gold refills Iron nodes. Truesilver refills Mithril nodes. So if you are just looking for Truesilver, you must NOT ignore the Mithril nodes as this will reduce the overall chance of Truesilver node spawns.

7. Take on the profession Inscription when Wrath of the Lich King launch. New professions will be in very high demand with little competition.

8. Prior to a WoW Seasonal event, purchase or farm items that are needed during these events. During certain times of the years, prices of certain items skyrocket. This is an excellent time to reap in the profits.

9. Understanding supply and demand. There is a given supply for every item in World of Warcraft, and there are also a given number of people looking for that item (demand).

Let’s look at this example, a server with 85% population being level 70s, the prices of some lower level items might be insanely high, this is because not only are these items in demand by lower level players, but also high level player’s alts. Depending on the item, they could also be in demand as mats for leveling professions.

10. Have fun with the game, World of Warcraft is a game after all, don’t get so stressed up sometimes because you did not farm enough gold, just stay consistent and find a way to farm gold that you enjoy.

These 10 World of Warcraft Gold Tips and Strategies have worked great for me, I hope you learned something from them.
