Horde: Making Gold At Low Levels For Mining & Herbalism
by AMA on Jul.27, 2010, under Warcraft
On low levels making gold will be fairly easy if you choose the right professions. Mining and Herbalism are the two easiest professions one could choose to make some gold. Selling herbs and ore on the Auction House is the best way of getting a nice amount of gold while you are still leveling up. These two professions could be quite useful and still prove to be gold makers even on higher levels. It is advisable to download the Gatherer addon before you start to help you track all the discovered herbs and ores.
