Shadowfang Keep- Gold Farming

Shadowfang Keep is one of the best places to farm for gold. Even the author of Gold-Secrets, whom I have been using to help me make hundreds of gold, says that this is a very good place to farm if you need some cash. It is a good place for a few reasons.

First, this place drops a ton of cloth that can be sold of the auction house. One of the best sellers is wool cloth. Some times, wool can go for over 5gold a stack!

Another reason why this place is wonderful for farming is because of all of the potential BoE drops. While they have a very low drop rate, some as low as .01%, they sell for a lot. Assassin’s Blade, which is one of the most sought after level 19 twink items, can sell from anywhere between 300g to over 1000g. That is a lot of cash in your pocket.

Also, this place is great for skinning. When I was leveling a skinner to Northrend level, this is one of the top places I hit once I hit 100 skinning. Almost everything in this instance can be skinned, allowing you to get a lot of leather in a matter of 20 to 30 minutes. I usually pull out a stack of Medium Leather and at least 2 stacks of light leather. That can be a lot of gold in your pocket.

Another reason why this place is great to farm for gold is just how much coin drops off of the mobs. In the end of a run, by myself, I can pull of at least 2 gold, not including all of the stuff I sell, which is usually another 3-4 gold.

When you enter this instance, make sure that your bags are empty, because they will take up all of your space.

Have fun gold farming!

Don’t Buy Gold!

Everyone around you has that fast epic mount or shiny new armor set.  You don’t have hours to spend farming or mastering the auction house.  As a casual player you figure that, hey, I have the money to buy that WoW gold they all keep talking about.  STOP! Don’t ever buy WoW gold.

  • Buying WoW gold is against the terms of service. Can’t do it sorry. If they ever found out that you do, then your account would be banned, which means no more WoW for you. Read Blizzards’ info on gold buying
  • You are supporting activities that diminish the gameplay experience.
  • Gold buying throws off the WOW economy- causing inflation!!
  • It is a waste of your money. You are already paying to play to game, so why would you waste your hard earned cash just to get some imaginary money that won’t get you anywhere except the poor house. Also, you will be going through that gold faster than you could say hop scotch.

There are   legal ways to acquire gold faster than the average player slogging though quests. You just have to know which quests, and what to do to be more efficient and still have fun.

Tips for getting Gold in WOW:

· Do Dailies- each quest pays 13g plus the goodies you get from kills. Many of these dailies can be found in Icecrown.

· Questing-This will award both gold and items that you can sell to make even more money. Sometimes, you can make over 20g from just one quest.

· Farming- This is a great way to get things that will help you make money from the auction house. Just be sure to do some research before you do start farming.

· Gold Guides- These guides are written by players who have a system down to acquire the most gold in the least amount of time. They tell you exactly where to go at which level and cover everything from quests, crafting ,auctions, and farming.  The Guide we recommend is: Gold Secrets 343 pages of gold getting secrets plus  extras on fishing, auctions, profit charts and more. Luke shows you his gold getting journey on video. Updates are free.

· Mods: There are add ons that can help you master the auction house and determine the values of the drops and track farming activities.
