7 ways not to be a broke looser in World of Warcraft
This guide is assuming you are starting on a new server or you are totally new to World of Warcraft. There have been allot of make money fast schemes out there but the question arises do you really need them. I had my mount money by the time I was 30 on a new character. So here are ways you will profit the most from wow.
1.Pick two gathering profession
People are lazy, let me write that again. PEOPLE ARE LAZY!. If you don’t know that life lesson, “betta ask some body”. The point being that, Gathering professions take time and allot of higher level people just want their crafted items now. They do not want to worry about gathering them on their own. Thats where you come in. And doing dirty work pays.
2. Do not start a new character on a new server.
There is just too much competition. This is not to say that you can not make money on a new server. It is just to say that it will take longer to make the same amount on a new server. The numbers just work for you.
3. Auction White Items
Items that show up as white can be used in many professions as components. Many players just need to find one white item to make a nice piece of armor or potion so they will usually pay a little more than there worth at auction for it.
4. Use a gathering mod
Gathering mods can pinpoint the exact location of different mines and herbs. I usually will pick an area and go from mine to mine gathering resources. This way you do not have to memorize every place you found a node. Takes tons of time off your travel.
5. Use a secondary characters as your banker
You can just mail that person all you items and continue your adventuring. It used to take an hour for items to get to a character on the same account now its almost instant. This way you do not have to go to the nearest auction house, you can just find the nearest mail box( these are littered all lover the place). Remember saving time can also save money.
6. Pick a Druid for your Race
OK, you do not have to be a druid as your race but it is a wise decision if you are using this character as a money mule or if you just cant pick what type of role you will have in the game. Druids do it all, they can heal themselves, they can stealth, they can turn into bears. This can only help your situation as you will not absolutely have to have the best items while leveling because your different forms will give you a boost in whatever role you are taking at the time. Therefor quest items and items you find will do just fine for a long long while. Even though at higher levels you will most likely be carrying around more than one expensive suit where others will carry one. Do not worry yourself over this, you will either get them from the arena or raids. In fact as you are leveling you will ALWAYS have enough cash for upgrades in fact you will have more than enough after following these rules.
7. Buy low sell High
An oldie but goody, as you go to auction keep an eye out for people desperate to get rid of items, they will always sell at a low price. Grab that item and resell it at a higher price and profit. Get a mod called Auctioneer it will tell you the going rate for the item you find but also check some other sites out to see what it should go for and many times you can sell it for twice the amount. I actually started doing this with a lump sum of money I saved up, and after a while it became a game in itself. I actually began to not even have to have professions on one of my accounts. Anytime someone tried to out sell another person by selling lower than them I would buy it and set the market with whatever price I chose. Its more complicated than that, but thats a article for another day. At this stage it will be enough of a boost to your income to do this:
whenever you come across a cheap item buy it and sell it at a higher price. The end
