I have tried only Blacksmithing on 2 different realms and made tons of gold from it, mostly from selling Weapons and some Armor. But never seen ppl talking about that Blacksmithing is good for gold.
I understand that some ppl prefer Grinding mobs/Raids/Dungeons over making gold with Auction. And some ppl have 11 100lvls with Garrions and alot treasure hunter followers, but i personally have only 3 100lvls, and 1 of them on different realm. Some say that professions is bad for gold now, but still i making more gold with Blacksmithing than with 1-2 garrisons (depents on realm i guess , my realm is like 7th highest populated on EU)
p.s. dont move this thread to Professions sub-forum please, because General Discussion sub forum much more active and this is poll
