Grinding for Gold

Grinding for gold is probably the easiest way to get a lot of gold in a short amount of time. It can be boring, but there are locations and techniques that can earn up to 180 gold an hour, so it is well worth the time. Most players like to spend a little time grinding while they’re questing. As an extra bonus, you’ll also be increasing your experience points, so it really can pay off in the long run.

There are a few places that you'll want to focus on if you are serious about grinding. Most of your opportunities for high amounts of gold per hour are going to be in the higher levels. However, you can turn a profit by grinding mobs just about anywhere and flipping the items that they drop. We’ll get into that later in this guide.

Once you get past level 50, the opportunities really open up for quality grinding. Winterspring is a region that is chock full of mobs that will earn you 50 gold pieces an hour, so make sure you spend a lot of time here. The best places to start are is the Winterfall Village.

You’ll find plenty of furbolgs in this location. They are relatively easy to kill and have a high drop rate. You’ll also be able to earn your Timbermaw as an extra little bonus.

The Yeti’s in the Everlook Forest also offer some great opportunities for grinding in this region. They do minimal amounts of damage and are easy enough to overcome on your own. You’ll also want to look for the Frostsabers since they are incredibly easy targets. As you get more experience and get past Level 60, you’ll be in the Eastern Plaguelands where it is also very easy to find mobs for grinding.

The Mossflayer Zombie is an insanely easy target here and you will easily earn well past 50 gold an hour with the right techniques and patience.

When you hit 70 and 80 there are even more opportunities as you can farm for motes and other high end items, some have reported up to 200 gold per hour just grinding!

Professions that Earn Gold

This method of getting more gold is going to take a little bit longer, but it can be a lot more interesting than simple grinding. While all professions make money, your best bets for profits are going to be gathering skills like mining, herbalism and skinning.

These are good skills because you can just gather and then sell on the auction house. Materials will always be in demand.

In order to effectively earn gold with your profession, you’re going to need to spend a lot of time increasing your skills. This can take you away from questing, so try to balance everything out. It is well worth your time to get to a skill level of 450, but it’s going to require a lot of patience. Once you do reach this, the items you make will be worth more money.
