Found an easy way to make moneyFollow

I'm alv 38 rogue who's way behind in mount money. I've just discovered that killing Dragonmaw orcs (lv 26ish) in the Wetlands is a great way to earn cash. They drop like flies to me now and when the server isn't busy I can just run back and forth collecting TONS of silk. Each stack of heavy silk bandages sells for 80s at the vendors... and there's a gobling vendor right outside their encampment, which means I only have to go to town or another zone when I get bored. The orcs drop 2 silks at a time (often) and it takes about 5 seconds to kill them, so the ratio ain't bad.

Anyone else have easy tips?

I tried this last night, but I fuond that so many people are selling silk that you get more from selling it to a vendor then you do of selling it in the AH. Could be just my server, but that's what I saw.

Another way to make money in the wetlands is to go to the tomb area and kill the oozes. You can make about 70 sp per stack of 20 flasks of oil. I caught on to this the other day and it's een a good way for money making. Plus they tend to drop a decent amount of green/blue drops.

On my server, the original idea (using silk drops to make Heavy Silk bandages that sell for 80s to vendors per stack) is not a good one. Well, it is decent, but not the best. I just got onto enemies that drop silk constantly, and a stack of it sells for 50-60s on the AH. Now, to make Heavy Silk Bandages, you need to use 2 silk per bandage (I assume, at least, that this follows the linen--->heavy linen line, where two linen make a heavy, etc). If you sold 40 silk on the AH, you would make 100-120s, increasing your profit by 20-40 silver. Granted this isn't immediate, and you have to throw down extra silver for the deposit (which you get back once you sell it... and it will sell unless you put your buyout too high). But you still make a lot more on the AH.

I tried the ooze idea as well. Lady Deadsidedemon, you must mean selling on the AH, because I got about 10 flasks, and they didn't sell well to vendors at all. Only got one green drop, too :-(. In about an hour, I made maybe 50 silver in vendor trash... a lot less than I would have made killing level 10 kobolds to farm linen cloth (20-25 silver a stack, I can get a stack really fast).

I don't find myself in need of too much money right now at level 30 (I have around 15 gold on me), but I make a lot just by picking on green humanoids 5-6 levels below me. I can take up to four at a time (not recommended, though... downtime and all that), still get experience, and they drop money, along with cloth of some kind (cotton sells nicely), and I get experience. Plus, the little camps always have chests, for extra prizes ^_^. This is the best I have found so far. Also, I pick any herb I see, and I'm amazed how much people will pay for them.

Two questions from me: what do flasks of oil do, besides that quest in Westfall (which, by the way, you can get oil a lot faster from the Harvesters there than the oozes, because they are 10 levels lower, and they drop money as well); and, what use is Ironbeard's Tomb besides the quest for the bag? It goes down three levels, and looks like there should be a door...

alchemy actually =P (im a 282 eng have never used oil)

i actually found that at 38 i could kill goblins in STV (up near the north mountain) for electro lanterns. Bliz nerfed the sell price. I found that 5 still sold to NPC for 75s, well that is still bearable..... then they nerfed them AGAIN so now they sell for UNDER ONE SILVER EACH!!!

i hope bliz isnt doing this to remove the easy gold side of the game, otherwise its gonna turn into FFXI =\

but now i farm either my precious Mosh'Ogg ogres in STV for money/cloth/green/blues which is good, but i also found that in Scarlet monastery, the very left instance that has the graveyard actually holds level 30-32 NON-elite ghosts, that will drop 2-5s each also green items and grey items that sell for quite a bit to vendor (most commonly metal stave, for 42s to NPC) and there is ALOT of them in this area but also with a couple of elite mobs.

i normally use cat form and sneak past the first elites invisible, but you might have to kill them in the graveyard area so if you cant solo a level 31-33 elite this might not be for you. oh and of course as with all instances, there are solid chests everywhere so another source of money :)
