If you want to mass your gold in WoW, you have multiple options that you can do such as gather materials, craft items, enchant gears, playing with the Auction House supply and demand, etc. But maybe due to our nature, many of us still prefer the classic method of gold making that have exist since the first RPG developed: farming.

Bashing monsters while earning gold is a great way to testing your skill and gear while having fun at the same time. I have prepared a list of farming spots in Northrend where you can gain proper amount of gold per hour. If you are looking for information on early level farming, I recommend that you check gold farming guide.

If you have reached Northrend, here’s the list:

1. The Storm Peaks
Mobs:
– Scion of Storm (level 78); have 33% chances to drop Relic of Ulduar, 26% chances to drop Crystallized Air.
– Seething Revenant (level 79); have 34% chances to drop Relic of Ulduar, 26% chances to drop Crystallized Fire.
– Icebound Revenant (level 78); have 22% chances to drop Crystallized Water.
– Nascent Val’kyr (level 78); always drop Dissolved Soul Essence, 0.5% probability in dropping Fractured Scarlet Ruby.
– Valkyrion Aspirant (level 74); it has 29% probability in dropping Frostweave Cloth and 41% probability for dropping Relic of Ulduar.

2. Wintergrasp (PvP territory)
Mobs:
– Tempest Revenant (level 80); will always give you Crystallized Air.
– Water Revenant (level 80); have 99% chances to drop Crystallized Water.
– Shadow Revenant (level 80); almost sure to give you Crystallized Shadow.
– Flame Revenant (level 80); drop Crystallized Fire in most of the time.
– Earthbound Revenant (level 80); have 100% chances to drop Crystallized Earth.
Don’t forget that to see these mobs you must have ‘Essence of Wintergrasp’ buff.

3. Icecrown
Mobs:
– Converted Hero (level 79); have 40% chances to drop Frostweave Cloth. For every pack, there is about six mobs included; so the strategy is round them up and finish them quickly, thus you can have proper gold per hour rate.

4. Dragonblight
Start from south of Venomspite and keep moving south while taking down every mobs that you encounter. Most of them are humanoid type, so you’ll gain gold from them as well as various items. If your level is high enough, you can finish them quickly without much difficulties (most of the NPC are between level 70 and 73).

When you reach The Forgotten Shore, sweep the coast line for more mobs, then get to the ship and kill even more mobs. By the time you have done, the previous mobs should have respawn  already, so go back to where you came from and repeat the whole process.

Important thing to do: before starting anything, go to AH and check the current item price, thus you can go for the highest payout. Of course, checking prices is only a basic thing to do, check gold secrets review for more advanced AH method to maximize your earning from farming.

With so many options in gold making, obviously one will be better than the other. For example, an expert Auction House player can generate gold in just relatively short time compared to the other player that mining ore for hours. Despite that fact, farming is still a very powerful gold making strategy as long as you have the knowledge on WHERE and WHAT to farm. Find the answer for this in the list of best gold guides at how to make wow gold.
