    Most gold earned

    So, what's the most you've earned and saw someone else earned?


    I'm on the left, he's on the right.. Ridiculous lol

    Mind you, I think he was just under 40mil earned before Legion hit..


    I need to know his secrets lol

    If you look in to it you can kind of guess what he might be doing differently than you:

    •Avg Gold Earned Per Day
    •Gold Earned from Auctions
    •Auctions Posted
    •Auction Purchases
    •Most expensive Auction Sold
    Gold spent at barber shops (this is a big one, probably where the secret lies)
    •Gold spent on postage
    •Gold spent on talent tree respects

    Why is it fake? I was inactive for about 50 days during legion and still i made 15mln.

    I know there are a lot of people who snipe AH for many hours/day, before legion farming transmogs was also awesome. At legion start in first 2 weeks 250k gold/h was easy to get.

    Now it's just AH playing

    Gold earned is a pretty shitty metric. For example my main AH gnome has 39.2M earned but maybe 20M is profit while my mogger has 11.3M earned but more than 10M are profits

    Well, considering he doubled it since Legion, says a good thing about it all. lol

    the issue with "gold earned"

    is i could buy an item for 200k gold, then sell it for 201k, then buy another for 201, sell it for 202,and after 5 times it will say "gold earned from auction 1 million" even though i only gained 5k

    also "need to know his secrets" one second



    thats how, hes an auction house player, what he most liklley does it buys stuff, crafts it together, then sells it for more (as seen from the postage price, most likely sending stuff to alts)

    also his massive "highest spent and bought" it seems to be hes maybe also bought rare things like mounts and sell them for even more


    here is mine btw

    my "gold per day" is really shitty as i made ALL of my money in wod, and havent really been gold farming since (since i dont spend much on gold other then sub time) i also played on a differant account vanilla to end of wrath, and played a DK for all of cata and most of mop

    I can do the same with tokens, especially since they cost 160.000G

    How do you people have so little Auctions posted haha xd Already got 70k posted on my bank alt I started using in WOD at around 6.2 - Used to post all stuff on my main who has like 125k posted total ever since vanilla, but only started AH playing in around WOTLK end of it.

    It says 2.2k gold earned pr. day, but I can assure you its little more, when I do play :P This alt is from vanilla, or maybe it was TBC...cant renenmber, old alt I made, now using it for bank alt..pro-tip: Darnassus is EPIC for bank alts with 0 people around...especially on a nice druid with movement in cat form. Also disable all addons you dont need to reduce log-in time...

    Some of those numbers were bugged back under the old gold cap. Your total gold would climb to the cap, then roll backwards to zero and down to the negative cap, then start climbing again back to zero and repeat. You didn't count your gold, you counted how many times you had made the trip between the two caps.

    This! Please be mindful of the difference between profit and revenue.

    Of course with 80M+ earned you're going to have 20M+ of profit, especially after WoD. With 55-60M earned across all chars I had to stockpile on Cata/MoP mats during WoD to avoid capping 11 chars + 2 banks. Mailing gold to inactive chars on a daily basis was pretty annoying

    I ran into that wall during MoP. All characters and banks capped, plus whatever gold was expiring in the mailbox because I didn't have any place to put it. I ended up giving most of it away and rerolled on a tiny broken server after a long break.

    Is it embarassing that I've played since Vanilla yet never had 6 figures? I utterly hate farming gold. The idea of making fake money doesn't intrigue me....even if it can save me real money. I farmed my 5k+ gold for epic flying in TBC. I farmed 10k gold for the mammoth in WoTLK. Nothing else interested me to actively farm since. I'm always broke living off mission gold and vendoring.
