Gold Guide | Farming Wailing Caverns - 15,000G/hr

Sharing some more Information on my Wailing Caverns Video. It's linked on the bottom for those who haven't watched it yet.

This is part of my new series, where I run through all dungeons, try to find the fastest and most profitable round and share my results. After Ragefire Chasm was a real Flop, the wailing Caverns were a very nice surprise. Nearly every second Item I got was a Transmog-Piece and I already got a good amount of gold from selling them.

First I tried to run the complete dungeon, but the right wing only has a few spread out mobs that don't really drop a good amount of quality items but double the time you need for a run to about 15min. There are some plants which drop random herbs, but since they only drop one or two of a kind this becomes more of a bag filler than a gold maker. And because there is a wide range of mobs in the right wing, that each drop a certain array of greys to fill your bags up even quicker, I decided against running that part.

My next Idea was to only farm the raptors around the first part of the Instance for the Deviat Hatchling, which is selling for around 3k, and the Leather from skinning. This didn't work out so well too. The runs only take four and a half minutes to complete with skinning so you'd reach the instance cap and couldn't farm it as long as you wanted. Also your profit was tied to the Hatchling dropping, which on average only happens every 21 runs.

The best route I came up with was to pull all the Raptors for a chance of the pet and leather if you want that and then do the left wing. And this went really good. Here are some tips if you want to try it:
  • There always spawns a chest in the left wing, either behind Lord Pythas or in the next corner, where you should do your first stop and kill all the mobs. If you try to pull all the mobs, some will despawn to fast to be skinned. Also the chest often contains one or two extra greens and some other nice items.
  • It's a nice spot to farm Leather, you'll get about 400 Light and 200 Medium Leather per Hour, but if you're only doing this for the Gold you should use the skinning time for two and a half extra runs instead. One run without skinning takes about  six minutes, while one with skinning takes eight.
  • There are two or three herb and mining nodes in the instance, but they will only slow you down. I don't think the time is really worth picking them up, but there is one ore node next to Lord Pythas and the first possible chest spawn, which you could pick up with close to no time loss. It even has a chance to be a silver ore node and silver Ore can go for a nice amount of Gold.
  • You'll need to sell your items every three to five runs, depending on your bag space, and the way to the next vendor is a nice run through the long cave and a flight away. I recommend putting your Hearthstone to Crossroads or Ratchet if you want to farm the Instance more often.
Now to my Gold Calculation and the drops I got. All the prices are average ones and can of course differ to the better or the worse. These are from ten runs, five with skinning and five without. I doubled the Leather drops for this calculation.

Without Transmog & Skinning:
  • 47x Wool Cloth = 33.84G
  • 59x Linen Cloth = 18.88G
  • 0.33 Greater Astral Essence = 0.70G
  • 18x Greater Magic Essence = 57.24G
  • 48x Strange Dust = 83.52G
  • 1x Moss Agate = 12.38G
  • 6x Shadowgem = 15.00G
  • 2x Tigerseye = 2.92G
  • 2x Formula: Enchant Bracer - Minor Spirit = 150.08G
  • 1x Schamtic: EZ-THro Dynamite = 57.44G
  • 1x Pattern: Gray Woolen RObe - 143.81G
  • 1x Pattern: Hillman's Belt - 118.51G
  • = 469.84G/hr
Without Transmog:
  • 469.84G Without Transmog & Skinning
  • 12x Medium Hide = 37.56G
  • 236x Medium Leather = 594.72G
  • 36x Light Hide = 64.8G
  • 438x Light Leather = 543.12G
  • = 1934.52G/80min / 80min * 60min = 1450.89G/hr
Without Skinning:
  • 469G Without Transmog & Skinning
  • 1x Bloodspattered Shield = 255.93G
  • 1x Ceremonial Leather Harness = 647.67G
  • 1x Barbarci Cloth Vest = 1178.29G
  • 1x Gloves of the Fang = 1774.64G
  • 1x Buccaneer's Gloves = 222.64G
  • 1x Prospector's Mitts = 867.06G
  • 1x Raider's Gauntlets = 151.69G
  • 1x Outrunner's Cord - 209.33
  • 2x Prospector's Sash = 1113.43
  • 2x Outrunner's Legguards = 1572.46
  • 1x Bloodspattered Loincloth = 334.91
  • 1x War Paint Legguards = 300.02
  • 1x Ceremonial Leather Loincloth = 3694.86
  • 1x Bristlebark Boots = 315.89
  • 1x Rigid Moccasins = 301.74
  • 1x Bard's Boots = 280.98
  • 1x Ritual Sandals = 153.25
  • 1x Feral Shoes = 186.58
  • 1x Mystic's Slippers = 241.68
  • 1x Outrunner's Slippers = 350.88
  • = 14848.25G/hr
With Skinning & Transmog:
  • 14848.25G without Skinning
  • 12x Medium Hide = 37.56G
  • 236x Medium Leather = 594.72G
  • 36x Light Hide = 64.8G
  • 438x Light Leather = 543.12G
  • = 16088.44G/80min / 80 * 60 = 12066.34G/hr
My results for the last one "With Skinning & Transmog" are wrong in the video, because I just added the per hour of skinning with the Transmog total and divided by 80 again... Please don't tell no one <3

Gold Guide | Farming Shadowfang Keep - 7,500G/hr

Image
Here is some Information for you if you're thinking about farming Shadowfang Keep for Gold. The Instance is Located in southern Silverpine Forest and has a huge Storyline to it, which horde players can follow before even entering the Instance with Quest in the Zone. Sadly this also means, that we're affected by boring speeches that only slow us down. On the good side, the route I'm taking only contains one of the speeches. We start the Instance in a room full of Quest and Story NPC's. You then head into the right doorway and pull all the mobs up until the boss. Kill all the Trash before you go near the Boss. Once the Boss is dead the first Storypoint is reached and the Instance to this point fills with NPC's and the Trash will despawn. If you haven't looted/killed them yet - bad luck. Now we have to wait for one of the NPC's to open the door, which takes about 30seconds. This time can be used perfectly to disenchant Items from previous runs. After the doo

Gold Guide | Runecloth Shuffle

Image
I love simple math, as you can tell from the calculations below. So i wanted to make this Guide, because I had so much Runecloth from my BWL Trash | Gold Guide  and I didn't wanted to flood the market with all the cloth and also thought I could make more money. You can see the three best Methods I found during my research below and all the calculations, which contain average prices from theunderminejournal . For all three methods you will be needing Tailoring and Enchanting. I disenchanted 100 of all the Gear pieces below to get an average. All Gear made is learned from the Trainer. Runecloth Belt - Runecloth into Dream Dust This is  the cheapest way to convert Runecloth into Dream Dust. With the Average prices, this guide doesn't make any gold. This Shuffle is profitable if the prices for Runecloth and Dream Dust are: 4Stacks of Runecloth < 1 Stack of Dream Dust Turn all lesser eternal essences into greater ones; nobody buys lesser ones. Created with: 3x Bol

Mining Route | Adamantite & Korium Ore

Image
We are farming on the Isle of Quel'Danas. This is the route we will be farming and it's not that hard to follow because there are only about 13 spawn points that respawn fast enough so you can just run around the isle over and over and over again. Since Khorium shares their spawn points with rich Adamantite you will also get this if you farm long enough. You won't have competition either because people only go on the isle for Sunwell Plateau or Magisters' Terrace. My result of 15 minutes farming: 74 Adamantite Ore (5.26G per) 24 Mote of Earth (0.52G per) 4 Eternium Ore (0.13G per at the vendor) 1 Shadow Draenite (13.5G per) 1 Deep Peridot (8.98G per) =1698.88 Gold/Hour I'm selling Eternium Ore because you most likely won't find a buyer for that. It has no really use ingame anymore; only a few recipes need it. You can also vendor the blue gems because when you have the jewelcrafting skill to use them you can also start using northrend green gems so nobody will

TYDKaWoW #010 | You can see Azeroth from the Black Temple

Image
I almost never look up in game. I have been a bunch of times in the Black Temple. I have been enough times in the Black Temple to get myself a pair of Warglaives of Azzinoth . But I never noticed, that you can actually see Azeroth in the sky. Every part of the raid, that takes place outside, you can just look up, and there the orb is. But why can we see it? Outlands and Azeroth isn't supposed to be so close to each other. If that were the case, we should be able to see it from anywhere in the Outlands? Well we got the lore explanation in a twitter thread, that started with the question, if Draenor and Azeroth are in the same solar system. The answer is no, they aren't. The answer to our question then still remains, but was answered a few tweets below. This wasn't answered by Blizzard directly, but the answer has been certified with a like from Ex-Lead Narrative Designer Dave Kosak. @useless740 @DaveK
