900g

[Jinsai]

So i'm 60, and i'm 650g short of my epic mount.. I've bought very little in the AH over the levels, nothing over 5g, no tradeskill items, no gear, I just haven't made that much cash.

Obviously seeing how there were level 60s WITH their epic mounts two weeks after Arch opened.. I must be in the dark about some secret way of making money that everyone else knows about. :?

And if there's anywhere to go to find out, it's these forums.

So, anyone feel like enlightening me?

[Silth]

Ha, I think I am the only lvl 46 on my server that doesn't have a mount yet.

46 Warrior Alliance on Deathwing server, and I have 50g (I did loan a friend 20g, and another friend later loaned me 20g) Aside from that my story is similar. I don't go spending at the AH.

I too wan to know how the heck to make hundreds of gold super fast.

[Arrg]

Selling stuff in the AH and grinding.

C'mon now, I know you're not going to try and tell me Dex/Vex made 900g in two weeks by selling all the high level stuff they found grinding to brokeass level 20-30s..

[Sypher]

well, before i rerolled I was strictly questing. When I was at lvl 24 (which is when i rerolled) I had about 5g without buying anything from the AH. On my new char I have done 90% grinding and I am already at 16g at lvl 27.

Also, once you get to 60, I hear solo farming instances is a good way to make cash.

[Khalaio]

well, alot fo the ppl that were 60 in a week and had the epic mount used the un-finished maraudon.....

just going to have to grind and sell what you can at the AH

[Elitist]

The first people probably had help from a lot of other people in terms of money.

[thglid5]

the early birds got all the money by selling to lowbies

now it's alot harder to make cash since those lowbies are...well not lowbies anymore

interesting... was that for XP or money, or both?

was anyone banned for 'abusing' that? i know they later said not to go into unfinished zones

[Khalaio]

well, epic mobs drop quite abit of cash and good items, and their xp is very good

if you could 1-shot everything in there, you'd get tons of cash and xp very quickly

[Shamiko]

Notice the rogues had the epic mounts first, SM farming, and hemmorage bug, instant 5 combo points in one hit. Not to mention Azshara, and selling what they found from two-three hitting high lvl mobs with hemmorage.

[Firecrak]

The first 60 with a mount was a mage. Maurodon farmer for sure. No one else was even in his level range, seeing as how mage downtime is massive versus even leve mobs...its very likely he did what Khal suggested.

[Heavens_Myst]

Actually, hemmorage was/is 4cp, not 5.

And, if you would like to know more -- orc rogues had Ghostly Strike giving out 6cp since beta, and a few weeks into retail before it was ninja fixed in maintence.

Was nice doing a ghostly strike, cold blood, and 5pt evis within 1-2 seconds.

Get five guys, go in start left side, kill all ud till sm area, go out reset and go back in.

IF you do this 6 times a day thats about 50-60g in one day.

Sense hippos and sm are nerfed, this would be your best shot.

Of course you can do full runs but whats the point, you just want cash.

And if blue stuff drop ah it eh.

[kenoki]

Sm nerfed...guess they haven't nerfed the good part.Still making 60 to 80G an hour there.

[hellion]

class kenoki?

[Afgar]

There's caster Hippos in Feralas just like those in Azshara, cept about 6 levels lower. They are easy and drop lots of cash loot, but no undamaged hippo feathers. They skin thick / heavy leather as well which is good to sell if you're a skinner.

Also please teacch me how to make 60-80g per hour anywhere =)

[Andvarion]

Yeah, you're making 60-80g an hour in Scarlet Monestary? What what?

[Ratama]

At level 60 you can get 2 chests (one green item each), and kill the High Inquisitor (2-4 green items) in less than 10 minutes per run (I have it pretty close to 5). Although I have stealth as a Rogue, I can do it completely without stealth as well (requires timing)

Figure an average of 4 items per run, that's 24 items per hour for the slowest, and 48 items per hour for the fastest.

I sell them on the AH for an average of about 1.2 gold per item (after AH fees, and counting about 40% that don't sell at all). Don't waste AH fees on non-ideal items that won't sell, just vendor them.

That's about 50-60 gold per hour. Good luck.

Edit:

Note: Do this maybe 1 night a week or you will saturate your AH and no one will buy anything.

If you are AH is crammed, you can vendor everything for about 2 gold per run, or you can farm Doan for just short of 2 gold per run (about 5 minutes, but requires stealth).

[Andvarion]

If you're 60, why would any of SM require stealth? Couldn't you just plow through everything in there?

[Ratama]

Not in 5 minutes. It's all about efficiency if you are grinding for gold. I don't want to fight anything that doesn't drop a green item guaranteed.

On the Doan run, I don't fight anything.

On the High Inquisitor run, I fight 2 MOBs, one to clear the first chest, and one to clear the 2nd chest.

[Afgar]

High inquisitor is cathedral right? It seems everytime I try to agro him he calls the whole cathedral to his aid...

that is morraine/whitemane.... high inquisitor is in the room on the right.

[kenoki]

Yep that's it.I'm a 57 rogue.

Enter, run to the first chest (either right or left of the fountain), Stealth, sap the mob near the chest, loot (1 green or blue with luck).

Run to the cath door, open it, vanish, go to this room on the right where high inquisitor is, 50% chance to have another chest here.

If so, kill the monk but be sure he doesn't run at the end of the fight (just stun him, you don't wanna put crippling poison for each run).Loot the chest (another green).

If the chest is in another place just enter to high inquisitor room without disturbing this monk.

Kill the high inquisitor (2 to 4 greens), stealth get out of the cath, put your run buff on and get out.Reset the instance.

Last time i did that i had 63 greens and one blue in 57 minutes.I sold maybe half in the AH.I just do that when i need money assuming it's so annoying after an hour.

A one chest run takes me 4.45 min, a two chest run 5.30 min.

[havok19]

How do you reset your instance i always get the message that i will be teleported to IF :(.I mean solo how can you reset it?

[kenoki]

You need a friend to reset it.

Group . Enter . Get out . Leave group . Regroup.
