Advice for TBC

Any advice on making good gold while leveling? I have tried two gathering professions, most recently skinning and herbalism. Though I’ve heard mining is good too. I’ve made some sales but a lot of the time i don’t get much or they just don’t sell. You certainly have to work gif your money in this game

Mining and Herbing is a lot of money, even early on. Mining is especially lucrative.
What server you on? Might depend.

The Atiesh server

Herbalism doesn’t bring in as much gold in TBCC as it does in Classic, because the demand for potions/elixirs is much lower (pre-70). Mining, however, doesnt have this problem as players are always looking for ores/bars for Jewelcrafting or Engineering. Stockpiling ores/bars now in preparation for leveling Blacksmithing, Engineering, or Jewelcrafting on Death Knights means the demand for ores/bars will always be high, even in late TBCC.

For skinning, stacks of leather scraps, light leather, and medium leather typically dont sell consistently to justify the AH listing fee, so vendor those. Heavy leather and beyond still sell consistently, and on some servers, heavy/thick/rugged leathers will sell better than knothide.

lower population servers will have slower moving economies (not sure about Atiesh but you are early enough to reroll on one of the megaservers). Also, since its the tail end of the expansion its unlikely to see much demand for low level mats; people are probably saving to rush things on wrath launch.

Check your AH for prices before posting your stuff, sometimes ore is more value than bars or certain leathers are worth more despite being lower level.

Thank you. Also one last question. Are there cooking recipes that restore your mana too?

A couple but they aren’t worth the cost and effort.

Is cooking worth it at all?

How are you gonna kill Arthas if you cant even figure out how to boil an egg?

lol okay, I needed that :slight_smile: :grin:

Get that quick switch addon and just scam people because blizzard doesn’t care and won’t do anything about it.

Mostly yes, good food buff as you level, just not the drink recipes xD.
