Impressive amount of gold...care to share your secret?
I personally haven't made nearly that amount...still having problems breaking into the 2K range, and that is on a character that hasn't event purchased epic flying yet.
Well 1 is im a miner so i mine as im doing quests. When cobalt first hit the AH it was selling at 200g a stack and was harder to get due to the number of people who rushed to the new area. Now on the realm i play cobalt is only 70g a stack but still a pretty penny. i mine alot of it while questing so that adds up fast.
2nd is Enchanting can be a pain to work up but is fun and a big time money maker. Those BOP blues and quest items u get that you dont need and you end up selling to the vendor for 2-4g each.. well with enchanting you disenchant them and sell the mats you get if you dont need them. Inf dust is selling for 165g a stack right now.
the 3rd part of my money making comes from questing. I quest till i cant quest no more then i quest some more. Lots of money to be made from questing. I have heard of people making over 2k gold by the time they hit 75-76 just off quests. honestly i havent kept track of how much of the gold i have made is from quests. (guess i could look at ach logs)
I also pick pocket most the things i fight if they can be pick pocket which is normally only 13-20silver but it adds up.
how profitable is enchanting? this is a list of stuff i have in the auction house right now on Maelstrom;
240 Infinite Dust (155g per stack of 20)
208 Large Prismatic Shard (150g Per stack of 20 9g per single)
615 Arcane dust (25g per stack of 20 and 1.5g per single)
180 Void Crystals (165g per stack of 20. yes i know i could break each stack into 40 Large Prismatic Shards but to lazy)
31 Large Brilliant Shard (75g per stack of 20)
47 Small Dream Shards (140g per stack 20)
17 Dream Shards (18g each)
Yes the arcane dust and pris shards are mainly from my time as a 70 however some are recent when helping people out to level. same with void crystals. as for the Inf dust, dream shards, small dream shards those are all wotlk items.
currently i have over 7k worth of items in the ah. i am about to go quest some more. i would say leave everything you dont need in back to have as much backpack space as u can. Pick up EVERYTHING and sell stuff to vendors you dont need like greys and stuff players wont buy for a good price.
oh and ah dosnt charge to list enchanting mats.
so if your herb mining or mining enchant or enchant herb you can make some fat side cash ontop of the normal quest farming.
