With Rhiamon off trying to look at more gold farming spots I thought that I would give you all an update as to how we are going to our ultimate goal of being gold capped. Now I know that this wont happen this expansion as Rhiamon’s has a shiny Armor/cute battle pet/new mount addiction. If it sparkles or looks cute she needs it, and if she didn’t collect these things I am sure we would of been gold capped back when the Lich King was trying to rule the world.
This week we started with 305,000 gold. We made a bit of a profit at the beginning of the week which took us to 325,000 gold and then purchased 2 game tokens at 50,000 gold each and we have been bouncing around the 240,000 gold ever since.
I have made 55,000 gold this week, The most being from garrison missions. I did sell a couple of battle pets: Viscidus Globule for 3695 gold and Gahz’rooki for 854 gold. I also sold some transmog gear including: gloves of the fang for 665 gold and darkcreast pauldrons for 1117 gold. 55 felblight sold at 70 gold each and a lot of glyphs sold for 9 gold each.
In the battle pet area I am trying to sell snarly, muckbreath and toothy as well as a feline familiar for 24,000 gold and a yellow moth for 10,000gold. Both of which I picked up from the Auction house not that long ago for a very small amount.
In theTtransmog gear I am trying to sell a Protector Buckler for 100,000 gold, Jasperlode Shield for 56,000 gold plus over 400 other items
How many items do you have currently sitting on the Auction house waiting to be sold?
If they all sold this week how much would you make?
This is a level 70 fishing daily quest in a lake just out side of Shattrath City in Outlands.
Fly to the lake to find the quest
This quest is on a rotation with other daily quests, so if you don’t have it on your server just jump servers until you do or wait a couple more days. I park an alt in this area just to quickly check as part of my daily routine.
I have personally seen it twice in two days on my server this week. I am not a betting panda but if I was I would put a bet that I don’t see this quest again this month.
This quest is very simple and very quick to do and can yield a lot of gold in the end of our time.
Fly out to old man Barlo and pick up the quest.
Old Man Barlo
Go back to Stormwind or Orgrimmar and kick back with a fishing pole in hand and take a moment to fish up this little guy.
Me and My Awesome fishing pole
Once you have this little one in your possession fly back and hand it in and claim the quest reward.
Open to find all sorts of goodies
Now here is the best part when opening the bag of fishing reward it has a 30% drop rate to drop one of three pets,plus also some greys and fishing hooks
These are the three little pets
These pets sell well on my server and also for good prices.

So let me know do you use this fishing daily to help boost up your gold supply?
Are there any other quests that you look out for to help make gold??
What do these little pets sell for on your server??
Hello and welcome to my first farming spot.. Tonight I am farming Sumptous Fur. even with the end of the expansion coming to a close I still find that this item sells quickly and for a good amount of gold.
That’s 32 Stacks of fur a day selling on my server!
There are five places that I know of that you can farm for this without the Skinning Profession.
Frostfire Ridge.
Killing Frost Wolf
Awesome spot for farming fur and leather scraps
These are level 90 mobs that are tightly packed together. I have farmed here before and I averaged 1 stack of fur for every 15 minutes of farming, which is an awesome effort. Plus they also give leather scarps if you are a Skinner.
I didn’t choose this as my favourite spot for three reasons
The mobs don’t drop raw gold. So you would need to wait on Auction House sales to get the total amount of gold
There is a lot of guides for farming in this area and a lot of people still farm in this area
If you are an alliance on a PVP server you may have a sneaky rogue trying to get that one last expansion gank on you.
Nagrand:
Killing Talbulks and Nagrand Prowers.
Talbuks and Prowers can be farmed in the red circles
These are level 98 – 100 beasts and are fairly easy to kill. But every time I go farming at these spots there is either someone farming there already or I have to keep one eye on my health bar (don’t forget I am only an ilvl 690 shammy)
Spires of Arak
There are two places to go in the spires to farm for Fur these are: Echo Hunters and Bloodmane Mobs.
Again the red circles to find the mobs
These are level 96 mobs and easy kills but again when I farmed them I found that I had to wait on the mobs to re-spawn and I just could not find a right farming grove to farm in.
I could not find a nice little piece of dirt that I could call my own and run around killing mobs. Farming here is to run to one end killing everything and run back with nothing to kill and I got bored… I blame my quick chain lighting trigger finger for this.
Talador
Killing Daggerjaw mobs around the lake of Vol’jin Pride.
For a fun little farming spot try here.. Just don’t tell them that Rhiamon sent you
This was fun on my Hunter and on my Pally and even on my Warrior, Warlock and Priest but after leveling all of these charaters and farming this area I think if the mobs saw Rhiamon fly in and start killing them they would just roll there eyes and put up signs saying “Please farm somwhere else”….so i did
And this takes us to my favourite sport
Gorgrond
Nice little farming spot here
Nestled high in the Gorgrond High Pass Mountains are mobs called Steamscar mobs.
These are the mobs you want to kill
These are level 93 mobs. easy to kill and re-spawn pretty regularly.
This place has an awesome circuit that you can just farm and get lost in for hours at a time and once you have finished one lap these guys are ready to kill again.
Rhiamon’s Farming session
They have a 73% drop rate of fur which is higher than Frostfire ridge (50% drop rate) and also drop greens and around 40 silver per kill
Some quick facts on Streamscar mobs
On Twitch I farmed these for 30 Minutes and this is what I received from that time
77 raw gold
170 Sumptuous Fur @ 1g 66s (on my server) = 282g
104g worth of Greens that were vendors
45g of Grays that were Vendored
All this adds up to 508Gold per 30 minutes
1016 gold per hour
Two tips on farming this spot:
If someone else is farming here and you both just cant farm at the same time use the Cross Server group finder to jump around until you find a nice server.Or try Frostfire ridge or Talador
Remember to kill the mobs and not be too interested in taking selfies
To busy taking Selfies to worry about the mobs
I am interested to know.. have you farmed in this spot before or do you have another spot that you like to farm Sumptuous Fur?
Do you farm in Frostfire Ridge then just sit back and wait for the gold to roll in?
Would you like to me to review your favourite farming spot for fur or anything else?
Feel free to leave a comment here, on Twitter or on facebook or drop in with a cup of tea and say Hi at 7.30pm Wednesday night AEST where I will be hopefully showing an awesome spot for farming 500 raw gold in 20 mins
