Fishing Poles bring in the gold?

I got an awesome wow gold tip to let you in on today. Let me ask you a question. Do you like to fish? It doesn't matter if you do or not you can make 75-175 gold an hour farming fishing poles. Most of the good fishing poles come from doing wow quests so you can't farm them and sell them in the auction house for gold. However the Big Iron Fishing Pole is currently going for 25-35 gold and I know where to farm 3-6 poles an hour. This is a great gold tip so make sure you get on it quick.

The first thing you need to do is head over to the south western coast of Desolace. There is a bay there where the Shellfish Traps reside. The poles are in the traps along with some lobster dudes that are level 33-34. I've slaughtered many of them in my days farming for wow gold. The best method I found to get the poles is to find an area where 5-10 traps are close to each other, then just circle around those ones all day. I was able to open 120-150 traps an hour and farm 3-6 fishing poles. The respawn rate is incredibly fast so you shouldn't have much downtime. A few seconds at the most is all I experienced.

If you find a good area of traps and you do this consistently it will produce a lot of wow gold. If you're an Alliance be aware that these Traps are located near a Horde camp. This is an awesome method to rake in large sums of wow gold. I use to farm these poles all the time until I came up with some other gold farming strategies. If your a little low on the gold I highly recommend this gold farming tip.

The Big Iron Fishing Pole is also a pole if you're into fishing as a profession. Fishing is one of my favorite professions for making gold. If you can master it then it can be a good gold maker. Many items created by fisherman sell great in the auction house. I will get some tips posted here that will help you fisherman make more gold. Fishing is a profession I really enjoy so I plan on releasing a lot of tips soon so make sure to bookmark my blog.

Chaotic Skyfire Diamond

Here's a good wow gold tip for all you high level players in the jewel crafting business. The design for a Chaotic Skyfire Diamond is not an easy one to farm. It takes anywhere from 50-200 kills for a drop. It's reported drop rate is 0.2%. This may take a while to farm but it's all worth it in the end as this diamond goes for 500-600 gold in the AH. The Chaotic Skyfire Diamond design is rare and and can only be farmed in one location.

The Coilskar Sirens are strutting their stuff in Shadowmoon Valley. Being a level 68-69 these guys can put up a fight. Northern Shadowmoon is where these bad boys hang out. It may take you a while but it will be well worth it to get this design. Some people have reported getting the design within a half hour.

If you're into jewel crafting I would definitely consider farming this design. With the recent auction house inflation this item will be selling for more gold. Not to many people are farming this so get on this quick. I don't know a whole lot of wow gold farming tips for Jewel Crafters but I will do my best to get some more on this wow blog.

There's a gold guide written by Derek Beachler, one of the richest players in wow. I have read it and it's very in depth. His guide contains plenty of awesome tips for making wow gold with Jewel Crafting.

Farming Fel Blossom

Here is a wow gold farming tip for you herbalists. Felweed grows abundantly on the Hellfire Peninsula and Terokkar Forest. It can be farmed for Fel Blossom. Fel Blossom is currently going for 10-15 wow gold per stack. On the Hellfire Peninsula the best spots to farm are the northern, western, and south eastern borders. In the Terokkar Forest it's spread more evenly and is plentiful everywhere, except there is none at the little pond area called Skettis. Farming Fel Blossom is a great way for an herbalist to make some gold in the World of Warcraft. It's also a good way to increase your herbalism skill. Now go out and make some wow gold.

Mining Copper Ore

Farming Copper Ore is an awesome way to make some wow gold for low level players with mining as a profession. When I was a low level player I could afford pretty much anything I wanted that was available to my level. This was all because of Copper Ore. Copper Ore can be sold for 1-3 gold a stack depending on your server. If you smelt it into bars it will be worth slightly more. I could farm 3-4 stacks of the ore when I was a level five. Thats a pretty high amount of gold for such a low level player to earn.

I have found that the best place to mine Copper Ore is in the northern mountain borders of Elwynn Forest. There are at least 30 mines in the mountains and rock bluffs throughout Elwynn Forest. You will even find a few mines in the lakes and rivers in the region. While mining the ore you will also come across lots of Rough Stone which can be sold for around 20 silver. The occasional Malachite and Tigers Eye can also be farmed to make wow gold.

In the Sentinal Hill area of Westfall there are some more Copper Mines. There are not near as many as Elwynn Forest, but you can still get a decent amount of Copper there. I usually mine this area and kill the abundant Defias Trappers for copper, cloth, and experience points.

Farming Crystal Infused Leather

Crystal Infused Leather sells for 10-20 gold a stack and is fairly easy to farm. The best place to farm it would be from the Bladespine Basilisk in Blade's Edge Mountains. The drop rate here is really high at 11%.

Another good spot for farming crystal infused leather is from the Quillfang Ravagers at Hellfire Peninsula. The drop rate here is about 2%. You can also expect some Fel Scales and the occassional green. The Fel Scales only sell for 1 gold a piece but are a handy ingredient for leather workers.

Where I do most of my skinning

Nagrand, one my favorite places in the World of Warcraft. Without a doubt Nagrand is one of the best places for high level skinners. The place is covered with all kinds of beasts. Truly a skinners dream come true. Some people are making upwards of 75 gold an hour by skinning like a mad man and completing the daily quests for Orgri'la and Sketties. There are three runs there that have produced a lot of gold for me. I've focused on skinning Nether Cobras and Clefthoof Bulls in this area and can now average 80 gold an hour. In one of my runs there is a treasure chest that produces blues and rarely an epic.

The Blade Edge Mountains are just as good a farming spot for skinners as Nagrand, if not better. One of the best things about wow gold farming at Blade Edge is the leather drop rate from beasts. It is surprisingly high compared to anywhere else in the Warcraft. The Lions at Blade Edge Mountains are known for having the highest drop rate of knothide leather. The Lions in this area are heavily farmed but you should still be able to make some gold. I can make about 65 gold an hour in this one triangular run I do there sometimes.

For skinners these two areas are probably the best in my opinion. They have the largest population of Beasts in the World of Warcraft. Bring a knife, some gloves, and an attitude and you can come up with some great wow gold farming techniques in these parts.

Gold farming in Shadowmoon Valley - Cobra Scales

Another good farming spot for skinners is at Coilskar Point in Shadowmoon Valley (53,24). There you will find the Coilskar Cobra. Cobra Scales are dropped from these snakes and are only found at this location. Most people only see and farm the 3-5 snakes outside the cave. Big mistake as there are actually 10-15 more inside. You can average 5-7 Cobra Scales an hour by going after the cobras inside the cave. The scales go for 20-60 gold depending on your server. Make sure you use this gold tip quick while people are still unaware of this!

Gold farming in Felwood - Leather

One of my favorite farming spots for skinners is just north of Bloodvenom Post in Felwood (37,43). There you will find 10-15 Angerclaw Mauler Bears that can be killed fairly quickly. The respawn rate is very fast which is why this is such a great farming spot. You make gold from the gray items and leather. You can make anywhere from 10-15 gold an hour here with the various stackable gray items. The real gold however comes from the rugged and thick leather skinned from the poor beasts. You can make anywhere from 20-30 gold an hour from the leather depending on your server. Cassandra's Grace can also be dropped from the bears occasionally. This can go for around 30 gold. People are making a ton of gold from farming these bears and it is getting more popular everyday. You better jump on this while you can.
