Skinning isn’t normally an efficient way of making big money in high levels, but it is an exception in this case. Skinning Wind Scales is a great way to make great money. Why? They’re needed for quite a few of those new recipes that came out in 2.4 and also the BT recipes. Whats more, a stack of these can go for around 220G. The mobs at Scalewing Shelf in the South Eastern region of Blade’s Edge Mountain such as the Scalewing Serpent have a 18-ish% skinning rate. Do watch out for the 70 Elite that wonders around the area though. This mob also has some great drops, such as Serpent Flesh which can go for nearly 50G a stack. And to top all of this off, is that not many people know about this place, hence making it nearly always empty! High Demand + No Supply… I’m sure you can make loads with this items, and even better - dominate and control the market
