I started at 82k combined on all my characters and have about 230k now.

Would be higher, but raising Alchemy and Enchanting probably cost me about 10k in lost profit. sad wink


You?

I would assume most of you hit the jack pot.

From level 1 to now 68, just over 1,000 gold. Back down to 700 due to cold weather flying though. . . .

Literally 32 gold to my name; I just bought epic flight on my highest (lvl 75) toon.

Though hopefully my AH speculation will bring me in several hundred more gold come tomorrow!

I think I'm about 40 or 50 thousand up on where I was when the expansion landed. I didn't really note down precisely what I was at then, though.

Most of that has come from jewelcrafting, doing dailies every day right from the start has given me a healthy base of recipes which are getting constant sales.

I probably had 4k total between 13 characters on Blackhand. I probably have 4.5k total spread over 16 characters now. I've never had more than 1.5k on a single character. tongue

On 4 85s, about 9k each just in the process of questing them up.

What's funny and more than a little annoying is that every cent is largely worthles. It just feeds inflation. I don't actually have much of anything to spend it on, and in turn, that glyph of maul for my level 25 druid is 154g. =/

Still kinda fun to see the numbers pile on, though. I hope they introduce some serious sinks.

Interesting question. I have literally just completed levelling a mage from 1-85, so I can give you the amounts very precisely:

1. Gold looted: 872G-82S-70B
2. Gold from quest rewards: 6750G-14S-85B
3. Gold from vendors: 242G-1S-35B
4. Total gold earned: 6864G-98S-90B

My character trained enchanting, which means that every single disenchantable item I looted or got as a quest reward was disenchanted if I couldn't use it. Hard to say how much more I'd have made if I'd sold all those items instead. Since I've done over 2000 quests, I'm thinking that if, I'd sold all these items, I'd have easily made another 5000G+. The true cost of enchanting, huh?

Holding steady at 125k across 8 characters.. what i have spent on flight training them and leveling alchemy on 1 seems to have evened out.

I made about 250K since the start. Im sitting on about 90K now with 90K in AH items for sale. Ive purchased most of my characters all of the flying skills and maxed all of their tradeskills. Im currently pulling about 10K profit off of the AH every 2-3 days.


Its been a lot of fun and much better then the other expansions.

I was near 100k at the end of wrath, and I've just stopped trying to make money at this point because there's simply nothing to spend it on. I've got the sandstone drake on my main and that's the only major expenditure I can find.

Even after getting four professions to near max (two are) I have added forty or so my total. I have purchased 310 flight for a few and 280 for others I skipped during this time as well. Like, what is there to spend it on? I sell all blues from pre 85... it is silly to buy any.

After Insane in the Membrane for a guildie, getting burned gambling on Waterlogged recipes, flying skills for alts, and leveling 5 professions...

Made? I've never been a fan of trying to figure out how to get the maximum amount of gold for everything I do, create, or farm.

So, on my druid, I had about 9k in gold at the start of Cata. He now has 20k in gold from doing the quests in all the zones, and from selling the items he didn't use or want. I've only spent a little gold buying some items and I have not enchanted anything yet. My DK had about 8k in gold and currently sits on about 18-19k, and is in the same boat regarding gear enchants. Both are sitting on an ilvl of mid 320's and neither has seen a heroic yet.

Druid has alchemy and just got to 525 this last week and sold just 1 truegold xmute for 150g, and has herbalism but hasn't sold a single flower to make money. DK has mining and skinning and has only sold a little of the leather and a few bars.

Now, all that said, I can see why some of the people on my server sell the 359 gear at the prices they do -- they must feel that everyone is sitting on 100k+ in gold and can therefore afford the 30k to 50k for each piece of gear.

Actually, no, they just feel that someone is sitting on 100k+ in gold and can therefore afford the 30k to 50k for each piece of gear. You only need one customer to make a sale.

Sitting on 180k atm. Sold a tsunami card for 45k yesterday. Horde Mal'Ganis has a lot of deep pockets. I'd have more, but I decided to just buy mats to level all of my professions and bought the 310 flight training for all of my alts.

Oh yeah forgot to mention... I had a couple guildies exploit the crap out of the Horde/Ally auction house differences. Mostly with Darkmoon cards. Horde is low pop on our server so their auctions are way cheaper. They just buy low from the Horde then do AH transfers and sell high in the Ally AH. Made over 300k doing this. Haven't checked what they are currently at tho >_<

Running around 12k. Bought 310% speed for 3 toons and Epic for 2 toons. Plus a few other things, so I have had about a total of 40kish when I account for other stuff I have splurged for.

I had over 500k coming in to cata - and now have just under 300k. I've spent boatloads of gold buying mats and epics. I figure, wtf do I need all that gold for? I'm having fun spending it on whatever. I hate to farm anything.

Probably made 50k or so just selling crap I don't need (10 80's that'll be 85 some day and crafters of every type - so I need most stuff for now) and selling a little bit of gems (3 JC's so I have/had more recipes than many right away).

I haven't really concerned myself with making gold early since I have a lot of other stuff going on...but I figure once I get bored with most of the game again and get back to being obsessed with the AH, that I'll run the total up even higher for end of cat.

Started wotlk with ~30k gold, ended it with over 500k. Started cata with 500k...oy, with scaling I figure to be well over 1m gold by the end of cata.

Enough to buy a Vial of the Sands (Sandstone Drake). It was 58k on my server. Seems like the "signature mount" of this x-pack so far, so I figured, why not?

I am at 20k, i had maybe 4k when Cata was released.

No idea how you guys make so much money.


I made quite a bit just skinning and herbing and selling the mats on AH. I've blown a lot of it though. If I had it to do over again I'd wear nothing but quest/dungeon drops til I started heroics.

Spent about 25k for flight & replacing one alt's crafting profession for the guild. Have about 20k left. Doesn't count the 40k I tossed into the guild vault for everyone's use.


I usually am out finding ways to gather (save on mats for everybody) as well as crafting/selling on the AH. Right now, for the first time, I am watching as 2 of my guildmates have stepped into the breach to do that as I stare at my login screen, frown, and log right back off. Got a guildmate making 4k a day with BSing just for logging on for about 20 minutes.

For some reason, I just don't want to bother. Burn out or boredom? I can't tell.

/cheers at everyone else and good luck in your finanical endeavors

I'm sure if I wait long enough, I will probably work through my slump. Just in time for the market to hit mid-expansion prices, lol. tongue

Subject: How much have you made in this expansion pack so far?
Now that I'm selling current mats on the AH I've made roughly 600 to 1k. Between quests, dailies, and AH I've made 3k.

I found something else by accident.
It has become my new passion.
