It’s hard to make ends meet when you’re new in a game, particularly on World of Warcraft. There are all sorts of items you need to get ahead in the game. I remember being so desperate for gold that I started looking around on the internet for ways to make gold, tips and tricks, any guide at all that would help me with my gold problem.
What I found was even better, one of the first Secret Warcraft podcasts. Included was Jonathan Kenins weekly review of the good gold makes in the game.
I learned some new terms from Secret Warcraft, Limited Supply items and cross-faction trading. I also learned that spending hours of my time is not necessary, doing boring things just to make gold is completely optional.
With Limited Supply items and cross-faction trading, making money is so easy!
First, get a list of the limited supply items available on World of Warcraft. SecretWarcraft.com has an excellent and complete list available, it’s organized by zone and location and it has a profit potential per item, so you can get started on your limited supply trading as soon as possible.
Then with that list, you will have to monitor your auction house. Check which items are selling for a lot, and which ones are not so hot on your server, that way you wont end up wasting money on an item that you wont be able to sell for a good profit.
When you have determined which items will get you the most gold, it’s time to go shopping!
With a bunch of empty bags, you should be able to fit a bunch of limited supply items. The best ones to go for are Alliance exclusive items such as Pattern: Black Whelp Cloak, Pattern: Raptor Hide Belt, or Pattern: Black Whelp Tunic.
Or you can try the Horde exclusive items such as Formula: Enchant Chest – Lesser Mana, Pattern: Raptor Hide Harness, and Recipe: Crispy Bat Wing.
With these items, good gold profit is pretty easy if you do cross-faction trading, which means you’re basically selling Alliance exclusive items to the Horde auction house and vice versa.
