the ore I get for gems, make it into bars for use with my jewelcrafting, or sell it on the Auction House for gold. As a level 80 with maxed out mining and jewelcrafting I can make about 20 gold per stack of Saronite Ore, 50 gold per Monarch Topaz or Scarlet Ruby found by prospecting Saronite Ore, and more than 100 gold per Titan Steel Bar I sell on the Auction House.

In about an hour, I can use my cool down for Titan Steel, mine about 30-40 stacks of Saronite, and end up with at least 30 blue (rare) gems to use for jewelcrafting or sell on the Auction House. This translates into about 2000 gold for an hour work, when I sell my treasures that is. Now that titanium is prospectable, the income made from mining and jewelcrafting is even higher. The epic gems found from prospecting titanium ore all sell for at least 100 gold on the AH, sometimes up to 300 gold based on the server economy changes.

Now for my Blood Elf Death Knight's professions. Another level 80, she is an herbalist and an alchemist. I can farm enough herbs in about 2 hours to make 300-600 gold on the Auction House. Or, I can take some of my farmed herbs and make them into potions and elixirs, to sell on the auction house at a rate of 400-800 gold for the 2 hours of work.

Furthermore, I can use the herbs simply to make potions and elixirs that will help me in battle, such as health potion or battle elixir. I can also make the potions and send them to my lower level toons to help them level with greater ease. When this toon becomes maxed on her professions, she will be able to meet or even beat what my Pally makes per hour or per day as a mining jewelcrafter.

The biggest thing to remember is that World of Warcraft is much like the real world in all senses that matter to an avid gamer. The economy in Azeroth goes up and down. Prices change. A few months ago on my server, I sold gems for 10 gold per piece that I am notw selling for 40-60 gold each.

In the next few months, prices may go back to 10 gold per piece, while the price of herbs may skyrocket and my Death Knight may reap fantastic rewards. Noone can tell the economic future of Earth, or Azeroth.

Another way to make gold is to loot everything you can. Why? Even those low level gray items, meaningless gray fangs from animals, can make money. Even if it is a few copper or silver, you are that much closer to your next gold piece. My husband doesn't loot anything, I loot everything. I sell my treasures to vendors and on the Auction House.
