Void Shatter No Cooldown! - A way to Make Quick Gold - Update

I have blogged about Void Shatter to Make Gold before but in Patch 2.4.2 Blizzard made a significant change. Infact what they most significantly did was remove the 24 hour cooldown. Now you cant make this untill you are 375, and the Runed Eternium Rod is still massively expensive, but with this change it is much more likely that you can make a decent amount of gold from Void Shatter!

There is a downside for all you world of warcraft money makers however. Now that Void Shatter no longer has a cooldown it price on the auction house will drop dramatically since lots of guilds have hundreds to thousands of void crystals saved!

Which Alchemy Mastery is best for Making Gold?

Alchemy and Herbalism is a great way to make Gold. When you hit 375 Alchemy though you get an important choice to make. Which Alchemy Mastery should I take?

Now for anybody in a raiding guild it is usually a good idea to ask the guild what it needs. For those not in a guild however there is complete freedom in choosing your alchemy spec.

An Alchemy Specialisation basically gives around 20% more than you would get without it in an area. Therefore if you are making gold you should base your decision on what you actually sell!

If you sell a lot of Super Mana Potions on the auction house Then Potions Mastery is the obvious choice.

If Elixers are your best gold earners then Take elixer Mastery.

I would not however take Transmute Mastery (From Experience) While its nice to get the occasional 2 for 1 Primal mights the fact you can only do this once a day devalues this talent considerably conpared to flasks or potions, of which there is no limit.

When I first went for a mastery I took Transmute Mastery, I spent a lot of gold getting the primal mights I required, when I could have got the potions for its respective mastery at a greatly reduced cost, and then it took me a week to get my first primal might proc. Needless to say I was not impressed.

In my opinion Potion Mastery is the best for making Gold, Simply because what you make is in high demand, and the mats are fairly cheap. Elixer mastery is also pretty good, though Falls over a bit because many Raiding Guilds use Flasks Rather than Elixers, (Healers being the exception for Elixer of Healing Power).

Which Daily Quest is the Best for Making Gold?

The question of which Daily Quest is the most effective for making gold is quite possibly one of the most searched for problems on World of Warcraft.

The truth is there is no simple answer, it requires you to know what you can do and how fast you can do it.

Take a holy priest for instance. The Best Daily Quests for a holy priest do not involve fighting, the bombing runs and travelling quests are probably more effective for gold per hour.

For most other classes however choosing you're quests is a matter of prefrence, there are however things you should look out for.

Try and merge quests, if one quest wants you to kill things and the other wants you to visit something in the same area do them both at the same time!

Do quests that require you to kill things, that way you get mob loot as well as the quest reward

Team up with other players, a group of two players is easily equal to three seperate players.

Location, Location, Location - Quests that are closer together mean less travelling time (Hence why I love Sunwell Isle so much!

Keep these key points in mind and you should be making gold in the hundreds in a matter of hours :)

Making WoW Gold With Scryer and Aldor Rep Items

Unfortunately most ways to make Gold in WoW involve a certain level of repetitive grinding. While grinding for Aldor and Scryer rep items to sell on the auction house is no different it does have the added benefit of getting you netherweave cloth, gold and the occasional green and blue rare items.

Aldor and Scryer reputation items are always worth a large amount of gold, but their prices do fluctuate rapidly. Keep a keen eye on the auction house for the best time to sell and you can sometimes get upto double the amount of gold you would have done otherwise.

Scryer rep items can be found in areas like the Manaforges in Netherstorm, Aldor Rep items seem to have the highest drop rate at Deaths Door in the Blades Edge Mountains. These are just one of many areas where you can get these, The general rule of thumb is Blood Elves drop Scryer Rep Items such as Arcane Tomes and Demons drop Aldor Items such as Fel Armanants and Marks of Saragas.

Enchanting - Making Gold by Disenchanting.

This may seem another obvious thing, but for any enchanters out there, anything green or above, Disenchant it! Disenchanting Items can provide huge amounts of gold, and the best thing is that since disenchanting is bundled with enchanting you don't need to waste a trade skill like you do with herbalism and mining.

You may find enchanting materials can make huge amounts of gold in WoW, like Dream Dust and Vision dust sell which extremely well. When you hit the outlands Arcane dust, Greater Planer Essence and Large Prismatic Shards are also worth quite a nice sum.

You will find Large Prismatic Shards are the best money makers and come from blue instance items in the outlands. The best place to grind these is in some of the higher end instances in the Outlands, to do this you will need a group, and share the Large Prismatic Shards, but on the plus side on the easier instances you can get through them quite quickly and Large Prismatic Shards do sell for a lot of gold, even after the introduction of Void Shatter in Patch 2.4 which has a 24 hour cooldown.

Ontop of these though there are many different kinds of enchanting materials that sell for a lot of gold in WoW, making disenchanting a very profitable way to make money on the auction house!

Copper - Worth its Weight in Gold

Copper is one of the easiest to find minerals in World of Warcraft and yet even with the Burning Crusade it can sell for more than enough on the Auction House. It may seem a bit obvious to point out but a lot of people don't realise exactly how much can be made. With a swift mount and the +10% riding crop increase you can speed around the copper spawn points, and an addon like gatherer will greatly speed your grinding to up your gold.

I would definately suggest any miner to spend a bit of time grinding copper to get easy gold in WoW!
