The Impact of Diablo IV on the WoW Token Price – Wowhead Economy Weekly Wrap-Up 281

Hi, been watch some posts on ‘wanna have some easy gold’, previously there were some very good content creaters that works on those like TheLazyGoldmaker, goldqueen, penguin, etc. Some maybe shifted focus, some changed to making ‘gold’ in real life etc, it’s kinda dry on this bit of information, here gonna share my 2 cents on some easy gold methods

The price of mettle is profession dependent, the one choose was alchemy/enchanting recipes that sells region wde. The profit for Dracothyst is not per-craft but all crafts per session, for Alchemy it’s 10 crafts and for Tailoring it’s also 10 crafts but not 30 crafts.

With Dracothyst, previously they are kinda daily, but given the hotfix on the cooldown reset, currently would only attend to them on weekends when the price is higher, so you can craft them daily and post them on weekends.

have fun and good luck hunting.

With alchemy blue tools and like 80 Knowledge Points, you can easly reach 1.5-2k average gold per craft on dracothyst.

Artistan’s mettle is much harder to capitalize, because of barrier entry, but there are some recipes that will fetch you +5k gold per craft. Case in point tiered medallion of setting or some LW recipes.

Hi all, bit late to Dragonflight but having a blast with it.

Years ago, I had moderate success farming old raids for transmog, but transmog is selling a *lot* slower now and doesn’t seem worth the effort unless I go ALL in.
I collect my twice-weekly dragon race gold on my alts and that’s a nice little trickle of raw gold + rep. Clearing out any nearby gold-related world quests are a nice bonus. Otherwise, I have one (level 50) alt parked at a rare spawn that I might kill every few days which saves me travel time. It just doesn’t seem as valuable to have multiple characters levelled currently. Have things changed that much?

Of course, this is all while I slowly accumulate enough knowledge points to build up my professions, where alts very much will help. This is just a slow process!

I’ve been doing the bonus bag dungeons for augment runes. I use a character that I’m comfortable doing all three roles on for this so I don’t have to switch around. That and finding things that at low skill you can buy raw mats and flip for more.

I sit on my monk and queue whatever pops the bonus bag. I hope for tank because I’ll pull the dungeon in as few pulls as possible and aoe the trash down. 10 mins for 2-4 runes that sell for 3500/ea

It’s decent money for a small time goblin

I have a handful of 70 alts and my plan is to once a week farm the community feast for Alchemical flavor pocket.

Just getting one is worth like 60k on my server. So for a 15 min a week farm I could get 60k.

Seems easy to me.

You can do the weekly quest for ~4 chars per feast, just park them there. Maybe more than 4 idk, just when I did it once on all my chars, that’s how it went. Tasks are given rapidly nowadays after many fixes and you often finish deed in under 3 mins.

I don’t believe this translates into good g/hr though. I personally did this when the weekly 3k anima quest still awarded ~1.6k gold but as that reward was redirected to Loamm weekly, I think there’s no motive to do that quest anymore if you don’t care about gaining more rep on that char. The flavor pocket itself is nice but droprate is too low (~2%) for activity that otherwise rewards no gold. You end up spending a lot of time just moving there every week unless you park them there for good and do nothing else with them.

I could technically do that on 50 chars. If I tried to optimize heavily pocket farm, I’d on avg. get one per week and I’d do it over ~10x feasts, over 150 minutes. So 50k for 2.5hrs and that’s with assumption that I’d complete 5 chars per 15min and stunlock those chars to that spot for good.

If you get the chars above certain ilvl, you start seeing gold rewards for some WQs, most often for ones that would otherwise give rep. It’s not straight up ilvl requirement but all my chars went over the limit when they got 390 ilvl. Though sometimes I’ve started seeing best rewards already at 370 ilvl.

Then you just put wm on and do a round if there’s enough good weeklies. I also do dragonriding wqs if they happen to be nicely on the route.

Pre 10.1, I logged each char twice a week and earned around 10k gold per week for something like 30m work per char. I made sure to complete fields of ferocity questline while leveling and I often wait until I do dailies to point that Nokhud pvp daily is on with gold (1400g) reward. Though that doesn’t happen even every week. Either that or ferocity gold always get me moving on all my chars. Now it’s been a while since either has been active, 2 weeks or so.

Ofc just adapt, see if some mission is just not worth the trouble. Some of the “kill 100%” quests in bad areas are not worth it. Some are. Some dragonraces are way off, not worth it for that 520g. Some are right on your route. Just do what makes sense. Though if 20k/hr isn’t great in your eyes, then do not bother. WQs are never going to do better than that. Could be you won’t do more than 15k/hr.

This is the big change in phase 3. Epic gems will now be the de-facto Best gems, and players can gett hem in every slot. THey can be sourced from prospecting titanium ore, as well as from Emblems of heroism.

With the gems becoming available we also get a ton of new recipes to cut the new epic gems into spcketable gems.

Based on the current prices for gems and ore you would need epic gems to on average sell for 75 gold to break even on my realm. I would not be surprised to see significant demand at a much higher price than that, so to me this seems like a good potential investment. I’ll be updating the spreadsheet for prospecting with titanium prospecting as well, I have all the rates already, so stay tuned for that.
