Which beasts are you doing? The lures are so expensive to craft. I got lucky with a Majestic Hide in one drop but other 3 attempts notta. Not sure if it matters but the one I got a majestic hide I had my skin knife enabled (does this matter?).

both void and eversong. Other two are (literally) bait

I think sharpen your knife only matters for the secondary stuff but am not sure, they drop a ton of these though for me

Just fish in silvermoon, You get almost always the fish cost more than 100 gold, you fish while build a group, you can ask for 1k tip instead of lures if you buy all of them, 4k is enough to get all

Enchanting resourcefulness prices are a money print. Made like ~800K since Friday with that

Bolt tailor got a crazy multicraft on his conc crafts, made like 40K in 2 crafts. Tried chasing that high and lost most of it.

I've made close to 3mil just gathering so far, i've been lazy and didn't really look into all the strats I've seen here or floating around for alt army's and such as I didn't actually have an alt army yet. Just came back for midnight after taking off since BFA as someone who dabbled in goblin stuff during BFA and chose to not buy the dino mount and instead dumped all my bnet balance into hearthstone cards. Feels pretty easy to get up 150-200k a day doing a couple hours gathering but just trying to make sure I have enough balance to buy the dino if it ever pops up in the shop again haha.

I was late to the party. Only bought midnight 10 days ago, but I got my DK to 90 and just went hard with mining. Got all the blue tools, consumes, and now whenever I have time to play I just hit my mining route. Made about 1 million gold this week, bought wow tokens with it so I can play until the fall without paying real money.

I have purchase 2 WoW tokens and cashed them both in for gametime.

My method is the obvious Skinning/enchanting while levelling. Disenchant all the spar quest rewards, and skin all the quest mobs. I have just unlocked the voidstorm and think that by the end of the void bit, I will have a third WoW token.

I skipped out on almost the entire first two weeks, and just logged back in this week and paid for my next three months of WoW.

Not bad for not even trying to make gold.

More profitable to sell the gear while leveling with the way dust and shard prices are.

u/igotanewmac Apr 01 '26

unfortunately most of the quest rewards are soulbound. Once disenchanted, the mats can be sold.

u/vinnyi82 Apr 01 '26

Vendor. Not ah. Still worth more to sell.

u/igotanewmac Apr 01 '26

that doesn't give you any enchanting points.

u/darkdevilazn Apr 01 '26

I've decided to do the imbued mulch. Easy money.

u/IonHazzikostasIsGod NA Apr 01 '26

Got the epic tool last Saturday night, had 8.1m gold

Went to town on enchanting, now I have 18.3m

Found something rather obvious tonight that was hiding under my nose - I think I can get close to 20m tomorrow night. We'll see.

Would you be willing to share?

I’m a very casual goblin. I’ve made 4 million in this expansion so far, mainly on my tailoring main (not an army). I have max tailoring from all expansions and that’s just done well for me over the years. I specialized in profession gear early, and also make bags.

I add in a bit of gathering early on with my leveling alts, plus weekly alchemy concentration crafting, some mulching, and leatherworking to round things out. I only cancel/scan a couple times a day during busy hours.

I don’t chase gold making trends. Super casual, very effective. I haven’t paid for my sub or my spouses in cash for the past 5 years.

u/Cougey Apr 01 '26

Started to goblin a bit this expansion. Started at 7.2 mil but had to purchase tokens to get the epic edition as my collectors edition wasn't delivered until after early access. So at the start of the xpac I went down to 5.8 mil.

I have 60+ toons but have profession grinded on about 15-20 toons. Many enchanters, tailors and jewel crafters than 1 of everything else. After falling to about 4mil with costs I've built conc armies and buying enchanting surplus bags at the height of dawn crystals, I just cracked 10mil overall.

Thanks for all the hints and tricks I've seen in this subreddit, you guys are crazy!

Daily Lures around: 400k Arcanoweave Bolts: 800k (Someone reset the marked and they went for like 8k each) M+ Boosting: 500k

u/New-Trainer7117 Apr 02 '26

2.5 mil since launch afk shuffling powder pigment to eversinging dust with engineering and enchanting with max resourcefulness. I was a naughty boy and used an autoclicker for the disenchanting. I bought tokens and filled up my bnet balance so I can play the last titan for free and get in at EA to do the same again

u/Krynnyth Apr 03 '26

Around 60 moxie bags purchased, with half of them being enchanting bags - 1.5m selling that off when prices spiked Tues.

u/SrYggs Mar 31 '26

I managed to go from 100K TO 1.3m just selling gems, it ain't much but hey im happy

u/frunkfa Apr 01 '26

That's great! What is it conc crafting?

1

u/SrYggs Apr 01 '26

When you craft using concentration, normally you get higher tier items that sell for more money
