Whispers from Azeroth

One of the many common topics I see while perusing the official forums is the question of how to make gold in game. Gold is easy to come by these days with all of the daily quests available to all Level 70s. But dailies are time consuming and very boring once you've completed them dozens of times. I'm guilty of this as well, once I had my gold for my epic mount, I became less and less interested with doing dailies every day. And who can blame us? Doing the same quests over and over is repetitive and feels like a job more than a game. Thus, I gave up on doing dailies every day and searched for ways to make easy gold without much time or effort.

One of the easy ways I've found to make some gold once every 4 days or so, is to never let your trade skill cool downs stay up for very long. On my Warlock main, I'm currently a 375 Shadoweave Tailor. This allows me to create 2 Shadowcloth for the mats of one. On my server, the main two ingredients, Primal fire and Primal shadow go for around 30-35g a piece for a total investment of 60-70g. With Shadowcloth going for around 70g a piece, that allows for a total profit of 70g every 4 days. Thats 70g for about 10 mins of time invested in game. This same idea can be applied to making Primal Mooncloth and Spellcloth with usually much better results with profits of up to 100g due to the vary costs of ingredients. Another tip to consider is to buy your mats on the weekends, as prices are usually much lower then due to the influx of players using the Auction house on the weekends. You can sometimes get your mats at a much reduced cost. Also make sure to check the trade channel as sometimes primals are advertised at reduced rates via trade.
