Default > 300k gold in 24 hours - Possible?

I've been making silly amounts of gold by doing 1 simple thing and only spending a handful of minutes a day. Doing this 24hr straight should yield AT LEAST 300k.

318,000 Gold per day average with Multiboxing Farming! - YouTube

Thoughts?

Made a Reddit thread on this for feedback. Show some love!

You'd want to run a lot of the instance, to get an average value per run.
That will vary from one server to another, because of supply/demand and relative values of items on a given server.

I didn't watch the entire video, but with instance resets you would be able to run six times in the first hour and then five times per hour thereafter.
So as long as it takes you 12 minutes or longer, you won't run into issues with the reset timer.

Since you're on a high population realm, and BoE greens are fairly random -- dropping from any mob of the appropriate level range, you should find buyers for pretty much anything that drops.

You might improve your gold per hour by including a Tailor and Enchanter on your team.
The Tailor has a chance to get extra cloth, which any humanoid mob can drop.
The Enchanter gets you the option to disenchant instead of vendor anything that is BoP.

I always like the quality of your videos and that you explain what you're doing and how you're doing it.
Good work, Tim.

Exactly! I did 10 runs and averaged slightly under 5k a run, with a peak being 13k a run. I sort of like the "burst" sort of feel My record is 1 group of 4 mobs, with 5 greens and 1 blue in that group. Ended up being worth about 5k for those 4 mobs!

Thanks for the kind comment Ualaa. I love making these videos and the reaction has been very positive. I'm aiming for a video every 2 days, if not more. Whoot!

DEing is really worth close to 0 these days. In fact, I would skip the bosses if I could. It just adds time.

The cloth idea, hmm interesting. Any idea what the actual gain is?

Yay and nay...I just made 18,000g profit yesterday on DEing things. The Heavenly shards are only worth about 40g each on our server, but they sell almost instantly. The greater celestial essence are about 250-300g per stack of 10, and I sold more than 100 stacks yesterday at 275g each stack.
(no my math is not off, I spend almost 12,000g on ores to make just over 30kG total)

Oh wait wait, I thought DEing was really really bad these days?

Heavenly Shards come from the standard blue that a boss would drop, right? I'm too lazy to Wowhead atm

GCE's come from the greens, but I find I can AH them better.

BUT

I really need a new addon to help me manage my massive auction list. I have almost 700 greens on the AH now. Not crap stuff that cost nothing, I'm talking LVL 77-81 greens, and blues, and epics. The big, spendy things.

If I had an addon that showed me I spent 1000 gold relisting a particular green 2h weapon that has +agility and +spirit that nobody would buy, then yea, I should DE it.

Hmm interesting, you're making me think a bit. I want to figure out how to squeeze as much profit as possible.

I've done enchanting way too many times. I hate the grind. It cost like 50k to grind it up to max it seems! But I would do it if it was worthwhile!

Considering I run instances myself, is DE the route to go? Any other profs I should get?

In all honesty, Tailoring and chanting are your best bet for making gold. They do cost the most to level, but if you de what you make from tailoring, you should have 80%+ of the mats to level. And, the way you are going, DE anything you can't sell for more than 75g, it would be worthwhile for you. Also, you can DE everything that has less than a 15G value and is BOP.

Trade Skill Master...

That lets you create groups, each with their own pricing rules.
You could make a group, with something like this:
- Lowest you'll ever list it for: 100g.
- Max Price, if no one else is listing: 500g.
- Undercut lowest price by 1 copper.
- AH duration: 12 hours.
- Stack size: 1
- Maximum number of auctions: 1

Add as many items that you feel are worth 100g to this group.
Make another group for 200g, 500g, 50g, etc.

Once the groups are configured, you click post.
You might have to spam click a bunch of times.
But it will list a maximum of one, item of the same type at once (two identical greens), undercutting by 1 copper, listing for 12 hours, never going lower than 100g even if someone else is selling for only 44g, using 500g as the sell price if no one else is selling the item...

Set up your categories..

You can go 1 ink glyphs, 2 ink glyphs, greens, etc.
As many categories as you like.

If you want to play the AH...
Set the duration to 12 hours.
And when you're undercut, you can have the addon cancel only the auctions which you can relist without going below your minimum.
Visit the AH every few hours, and cancel then repost stuff.

If you just want to post stuff and don't care that you might be undercut... just knowing you'll eventually sell stuff...
Set the duration to 48 Hours, and forget about an item once it is posted.




I believe the first Tailor toon, with the skill (available from the WotLK trainers, whatever skill level that was) who loots has a 10% chance at gaining +1 additional cloth drop.
Not positive on 10%, but it sounds right.
That works out to 10% additional cloth, just from looting with the Tailor toon.

Does TSM do all the things that Auctioneer does, such as maintain a deep database of item prices, current and historic, and then adjust pricing based on that?

Do you use it yourself? I'd love to see a good quality video of it in action. Somebody streams on Twitch (one of the devs I believe) of TSM but the quality is so horrible that you can't see numbers. Plus I'm afraid he is painfully slow to watch, something I personally just can't handle.
