mining doesn't sell as fast because the stuff you craft with the minerals can't be re-used, they only craft 1 of them. but people keep making pots and using them. so there is more demand for herbalism.

if you don't plan on taking up enchanting (as in continuing to level it to 300), then don't pick it up. make an alt, level it to level 5 and go learn enchanting just to disenchant stuff. send what ever greens or blue you don't want to your alt to be disenchanted. then you can either AH those stuff of or keep them to get enchant for your main.

Good tip knumskul.

Wool, silk, mageweave and runecloth sell well on my server, Bleeding Hollow; wool about 1g, silk nearly 2g per stacks. Apart from cloths, herbalism is good, or disenchanting items and selling the mats if you're not going to up enchanting. Skinning is also good, 1 stack of light leather can reach 1g also for light leather.

Or doing the VC instance, every run can get about 2g at least for items (greens and blues), not counting the cloths.  biggrin.gif

Wow, nice prices. On my server, silk goes for ~1g, wool goes for ~60s, and linen goes for ~45s. And linen sells quick too, often getting bought a few mins after putting it up smile.gif

I think it's official: Herbalism is the best profession out there. Stuff sells like crazy, and you can pair it up with Alchemy to get useful pots for yourself, or sell it on the AH. Next time I make a new toon, I'm definitely going this route.

Another place I found that you can farm a little over 1g and hour is Dun Modr. Those dark iron dwarves often have over 3s on them, and they have silk, AND they drop decent greens. Not too hard to kill them as well, since they nicely spaced out.

The SM courtyard have some level 30 - 31 elites that pack about 5s per kill if your lucky, but I had to take a mana break after killing each one, so it was kinda slow moving for me.

Don't forget, 10% discount on mount prices if you are honored with your home faction. And another 10% if you are a Sergeant. Managed to get the mount at level 40 with mining and skinning so it's not TOO hard.

WOO HOO!!! I finally got it! YES!

... funny thing is, I don't feel any faster. So I paid 16g for lessons, and 64g for the ride itself, and I don't feel significantly faster than I was before.

Anyways, here's a pic of my not so pride and joy tongue.gif :

SnoWFisH: your server is really screwed. 65g for an arcane crystal. lol. i never seen more than 30g before. but Eye of Shadow is still quite reasonable. on my server it goes for around 800g, and my server is farmers server.

wh'yd you donate silk? should've sold it. plan ahead for epics!! smile.gif

but it is hard to level a pally.

but you are going to suffer when you want your epic mount. the epic mount for Palladins and Warlocks actually costs more than a normal epic mount. also takes up more time to obtain 1 then a normal epic mount.

I live in London, therefore I play on EU servers. EU servers are located in France, so that helps.

Take up 2 Gathering skill and sell everything until you reach level 40
By then, you will have enough to get your mount!
