If you are a miner and a jewelcrafter then this is the easiest and simplest way to earn WoW gold. I’ve already talked about how farmers love the Sholazar Basin but I’ve forgot to mention that miners and jewelcrafters can call it their home as well.
You’ll need an epic mount to fully maximize your faming potentials. This would make it easier for you to travel around the basin. With this farming method, you’ll be able to gather around 500 to 600gold per hour. That’s a lot more than any other method available in the World of Warcraft. But of course you need to have mining and jewelcrafting skills to be able to do this method of making WoW gold.
So how do you do it? Simply fly around the Sholazar Basin and get all the Saronite and Titanium ores you could gather. In about an hour, you’ll be able to get at least six stacks of Saronite ores. If you’re lucky you’ll also have some titanium ores as well.
The titanium ores can be turned in Titanium bars and sold in the auction house. It could be sold for at least 30gold each. Or you could make a Titansteel bar, which is sold at the AH for 200gold. That’s just the gold you can make from the titanium ores you gather.
Here’s where your Jewelcrafting will come into play. You should prospect your saronite ores. You’ll get at least one blue gem per stack. That would translate into six blue gems per hour. You cut these gems and place them in the auction house for at least 60 to 80gold each. You’ll get a minimum of 360gold per hour. Not bad for an hour’s worth of flying around the basin.
The extra Chalcedony, Shadow Crystal, and Dark Jade could be used to make Icy Prism. This has a twenty hour cool down but you’ll be lucky to get a Dragon’s Eye from it. Icy Prism can contain up to three rare gems. A single Icy Prism can bring you an additional 200gold.
If you add all the gold you can get from the Sholazar Basin, that’s at least 600gold per hour spent in the basin. Do this at least two to three hours a week and you’ll have enough gold for your WoW shopping sprees. If you have a toon that’s both a Miner and a Jewelcrafter then head to the Sholazar Basin and gather some ores.
