Master gold-making in World of Warcraft: Midnight! Discover the best dailies, quests, and Auction House strategies to fill your coffers.

Alright, let's talk about making some gold in World of Warcraft: Midnight. Honestly, it's pretty straightforward: either you're doing quests and daily activities, or you're working the Auction House and trading. There are tons of daily quests scattered all over Northrend that will net you about 12-14 gold each. Plus, you've got all the regular quests, especially in areas like Icecrown and Storm Peaks, which drop a similar amount. You might not be able to knock out 25 dailies every day, but hitting up the Argent Tournament, Sons of Hodir, and Ebon Blade dailies is totally doable. Depending on your character, you can also tack on the random dungeon and profession dailies from Dalaran. And don't forget the PvP daily for a random battleground, plus the weekly Wintergrasp quests!

Beyond the dailies, there are still plenty of normal quests to do. If you've done most of the quests in Borean Tundra, Howling Fjord, Dragonblight, and Zul'drak to get to level 80, you'll have Icecrown, Sholazar Basin, and the Storm Peaks left. These quests usually give around 12-13 gold a piece. With some good gear, you can blast through these pretty fast, and you can even sell the gear rewards for an extra 3-14 gold when you get them.

Now, for the Auction House and trading route, you're looking at using your professions or selling stuff you farm up. Professions can be a bit of a gamble – sometimes the cost of materials like orbs means you won't make much profit, it really just depends. You'll probably have a much better time farming materials and selling them directly. Just keep in mind that the time you spend farming might add up more than you think.

Quick Tip: Always save any gear drops you get. You can either sell them directly or disenchant them. Hold onto those enchanting materials for yourself, though – you'll definitely need them later!

Honestly, the easiest way to make gold for the time you put in is just by doing the dailies and regular quests. Here are some of the key dailies to look out for:

  • Dalaran: Keep an eye out for the cooking, fishing, weekly raid, and battleground dailies. If you're a Jewelcrafter, seriously, get your skill up and head to Dalaran for that daily quest as soon as you can!
  • Argent Tournament (Northern Icecrown): These usually involve hitting target dummies or killing about 8 Scourge.
  • Shadow Vault (requires clearing the quest chain to unlock): Here you'll be shooting down 15 drakes, burning 8 buildings with a drake, and planting banners on 15 corpses.
  • Sons of Hodir: The only daily here that might not be worth your time is the spear quest.

There are even more dailies spread across Northrend, including fishing and cooking dailies in Sholazar Basin, which are super important if you're aiming for those profession titles. Just remember, some of the Dalaran dailies require you to have made progress in other areas, including having at least secondary professions leveled up.
