Nostalrius Begins - Quality wow vanilla realm (1.12)

Hi i never played wow much back in vanilla. just wondering how do you make gold in this game as a warrior im a fresh level 60 any tips would be great thanks

Hello, Here are my opinions on the best ways to make gold.

-Farming Devilsaur leathers if you are a skinner
-Farming rich thorium veins for arcane crystals if you are a miner
-Farming Black lotus/dreamfoil if you are a herbalist

However, the three above options are very competitive. Esp the devilsaur leathers and black lotus'. If you don't have a good group of friends others will prevent you from farming those.


An easier way to make money, though less than above, would be to solo the lower level dungeons for vendortrash/BOEs to auction.
I like to solo Scarlet monastary. all four portals share the same instance reset. so instead of being limited to 5 instances an hour, here you can do TWENTY... if you're that fast

My route is such. Skipping SM cathedral as it's mobs stun/heal and it has no chests making it not worth the time investment.

1, clear all of scarlet monastary graveyard. As it is the lowest level instance of the four and easiest. Being sure to grab the two unlocked chests.
2, I then clear up to the unlocked chest in sm armory. ( it's right inside the first courtyard )
3, I clear up to the first unlocked chest in sm library including grabbing the first boss.
4, Reset and repeat making a run to the vendor as needed in between.

In one tour like this my bags completely fill up and average about 10gold in vendor trash in 15 minutes. I only keep BOE greens to sell on the auction house if they have good stats ( such as of the bear/eagle/monkey or +healing/spell damage ). All of the BOE blues are good to sell for 5-20gold. Vendoring any and all greens that do not have the above surnames. They drop often and vendor 20silver to a gold each.
Also, a word to the wise, ALL of the patterns/recipes/plans/etc that drop at this level are complete garbage and will not sell on the auction house... Trust me. Even if the pattern is blue.

What's the nearest vendor to take care of all the vendortrash? Do you chug it back to Chillwind?

No I do not go back to chillwind . There is an argent dawn vendor at the bulwark ( the horde camp at the border to WPL ). the vendor sits right at the edge of the camp so you can sell/repair there without aggroing any guards.

The argent dawn faction is friendly to both horde and alliance.

Since you're fresh lvl 60 warrior I'd suggest you to do the best thing a warrior should do. Learn your tanking in instances as if it's your own palm. Learning your class is one thing, but learning to get rich I believe should be as usefull as grinding's daunting and dull.

Thing is that you kill two rabbits with one stone. Boulder even! You smash 'em squishy yet gain a profit. Any 5-man is your thing to do. There are tones of quests and a whole full sea of items to get. What's best - you'll get a very neat chunck of updated experience with all the mobs and odds possible. Something not all warriors try to get. So you'll have an advantage. Besides you need 5-man anyway, so help out those who need it. Be sure to not waste your effort, observe how people behave and make sure you're ready for action - bags are clear but you have everything for an emergency, like consumables, another set of weapons and/or armor. Ply your trade as a tank but also do your professions. They do bring profit if you know what to make.

Overall, as at the end of it, you already are capped with your leveling, so gaining money shouldn't be so much of an issue. Better make sure you get to know people around and those who you can rely on. Perhaps even find someone who have a similar goal - get a fortune.

Isn't it possible to clear the 3 minor SM-dungeons or is it just not worth?

Planned to do full runs there.
Didn't try it and I don't know if its possible either.

Like killing Herod as lvl60 Warrior should be easy or not?

Never farmed low level dungeons back then.

What about Uldaman. Clearable and worth farming?

Socialist Orb rules are the best (when you win one, you can't roll on another until everyone has one).
