How to Make Gold in WoW While LevelingPosted by xenith on May 15th, 2009

Its true that a lot of gold secrets of World of Warcraft aren’t much use while you rleveling. Either because you have to be high level to do them or because they take too much time that you really don’t want to waste while your leveling up.

So what players who are leveling really need is a strategy that will show them how to make gold at any level and that will not force them to take tons of time away from leveling and questing.

The absolute best way to do this is to use gathering professions. I advise that you take mining and skinning. Mining is the real money maker, so you need to take that one. Now Herbalism may be more profitable than skinning (maybe) but there are a couple reasons to take it. The first is that you will not need to go out of your way to gather, because you will be killing beasts anyway. Secondly, you can only have one ‘detect’ spell up at once, so you cannot be detecting minerals and detecting herbs at the same time.

With mining, you can make money off the raw ore and the smelted bars. High levels who want to powerlevel mining will pay well for raw ore, especially lower level ores. Use Auctioneer to determine whether bars or ore will make you more gold. Using Auctioneer to price your good is something you must learn if you want to see how to make gold in WoW.
