Getting back into gold making.

Most people seem to be experiencing a bit of a lull in WoW at the moment, I on the other hand feel completely different. Since I quit raiding a few months ago I have so much extra time on my hands. While I'm really enjoying not raiding I do now have a massive list of things I need or want to finish off before Mists of Pandaria!

One of those things is getting back into gold making. When I originally hit the gold cap I had been playing on the same server for many years and had amassed multiple level 85's all with maxed professions. When I later transferred off of that server I quickly began to feel lost when it came to gold making. I had no alts on my new server to back me up, I couldn't shuffle ore effectively. I had no awareness of the markets and to top it off I had to leave the majority of my gold back on Quel'Thalas as guild transfers weren't available yet.

I saw no use in continuing to make gold on Quel'Thalas as I had no need for the gold over there with no intention of playing any of those characters ever again, so I kind of just.. stopped altogether.

Quick! Steal it all while no one is looking!

Since I don't make gold just for the sake of making gold I actually enjoy it I started to add a few things into my routine to get myself back on track. Buying and selling transmogrification items, selling Cataclysm level 77-80 green armour. Sniping awesome deals from the Undermine Journal's great deals list.

Cataclysm 77-80 greens. 

Fast forward a few months and things are looking up certainly going into MoP more prepared that I was. I have several level 85's on my new server all with maxed professions and I've even started stockpiling for MoP. I'm currently sat (around) 480300g liquid. 


I still have Blacksmithing to finish off but my baby Paladin is only level 55. I have two Jewelcrafters, six alchemists, enchanting, mining and skinning. Two tailors, one leather worker. The only thing I'm missing is engineering but I have no desire to pick that up on any of my characters. 

A lot has changed since I stopped making gold being that I'm now on a crazy high population server (with several well known gold makers might I add!) but here's hopping it's as easy to fall back into as it was originality!

Wish me luck.
