Being a Warcraft Gold Generator in 5 Easy Steps

By Paul Rone-Clarke

The best 5 tips for turning your character into a Warcraft Gold Generator. You can use these tips as soon as you get to the auction house at any level.

1- Enjoy the game by playing and levelling. Power leveling gives you a host of real benefits.

As you progress, you will access higher level areas, and this in turn will give you better loot. But the main reason is that, by combining questing with powerleveling, you have a great route to extra gold in the form of rewards, and of course a decent upgrade path with weapon and armour rewards

2- Get a portal to Dalaran. This is a fantastic method of working. Send a lower level character to Dalaran by paying for a portal (or asking a guild mate to send you) Once there, you can buy the high level consumable items that the vendors sell and post them back to put on your factions auction house. This is a great way to become a WotLK gold farming expert at a low level.

3- Transmute, disenchant, prospect, mill. Whatever ability you have. Most farmed items can be changed or altered. Check and see which state offers the best value. You can sometimes buy, alter and resell almost immediately for a profit.

4- Auctioneer and other addons allow you to scan the auction house for bargain, Looking for items that are well below the average asking price. For this tip to work you need to have built up a decent number of full scans of the AH. I think probably 10 scans is enough as long as they are spread over a decent amount of time

5- Many people don't put a buyout on their auctions. These auctions will of course have to run for the full time. Check the auctions with less than 30 minutes to run. You will often find no-one at all has bid. The player that put them on perhaps thought he would spark a bidding war (it rarely - if ever happens. No buy-out is a real no-no both for buyer and seller) Take advantage of their mistake and buy these items up for minimum bid of 1 copper more.

I notice many people on forums don't like the minimum bid and 1 copper raises. But why?

Why offer more? What for? If the current bid is 50 gold 49 copper - why bid more than 50 gold 50 copper? What's the rest of your bid for? It's just gold out of your pocket for no reason. The vendor will either be happy with the results, or learn quickly. Don't let them learn at your expense.

There is more to being a World of Warcraft Gold Generator than these tips, but with luck you will soon be on your way.
