Money for mountFollow

Right off the bat, I am an Alliance 280Tailor/225Chanter with a couple of other toons, one of each with all of the other Trade Skills, but I am really poor... What level combinations of each trade skill, with the exception of Engineering (I didnt do that one) would I need to have to self-sufficiently get money for my mount? And before anyone says anything, I powerleveled MOST of my trade skills so I know that I will have to work for a while to get them high enough to be able to legitimately do them all

Wow. I’m going to have to level my warlock so he can collect herbs from higher level zones.

For the average player the secret to making money is having one or two gathering skills. These skills are skinning, mining, herbalism and even enchanting when just used to disenchant.

Selling leather can make you money, but you have to sell in volume and keep the prices on the low side. Thankfully this isn’t usually a problem because there are so many skinable mobs to kill.

Mining starts making good money once you hit iron. Oddly enough, at least on my server, iron sells for more than mithril. I sell iron for 4 gold per stack and that’s cheaper than almost everybody else. Stone also sells well at about that level, though not for as much as the metal.

Low level herbs are good money for a low level character just selling them to the vendor, as they are usually very plentiful in starter zones. As shown above, higher level herbs can make you a good chunk of change.

With enchanting your destroying existing magic items and selling the materials you get from them on the auction house. If you aren’t leveling the enchanting skill itself, you can make some decent money disenchanting. Later on you can disenchant bind on pickup items that are of no use to you and you can disenchant old equipment that you would normally just vendor as you upgrade.

If you take the time to raise your skill and to hunt down resources you can easily afford your first mount at level 40. And if you can find some good hunting grounds, as it were, for your supplies you can make enough money to finance both yourself and your alts. It takes some work, but as you advance in levels it really pays off.

Didnt take me long to see what your issue is



The trick is to sell mats, not use them to get to 225, well thats the trick if you want to make money instead of poor it in to a profession, remember enchanting is realy for the wealthy(taking it as a skill that is).
