    Quick gold on 4.0.1 Release date (Tanks or Healers preferred)

    At most, this guide is truly if you're a bored healer or tank for the instant queues (on my server atleast). You really only have a week or so to do this, so if you have down time, and love tanking or healing, here ya go!

    Basically on release date of 4.0.1 ALL badges below Emblems of Triumph and above Heroic Emblems, will be worth 5gold 50silver. So for the next week farm up as many heroics as you'd like, and break down the badges RIGHT before the patch release for some extra free gold.

    Yes, you can break them down for gems right now and get some gold for that, but according to my server the cheap gems are only going for 50g per gem:

    1 Dreadstone = 50g = Usage of 50 Emblems of Triumph

    versus

    50 emblems of Valor = 55gold

    I love healing, and it's REALLY semi-afk easy (put in a good movie or some new episodes of Metalocalypse), if you have a good tank friend. I'm already up to 330 emblems in 3 days.

    I can't agree with that. At least at the two servers I am playing the prices of uncut gems are at about 60-80 gold. But even assumimg they are only worth 50 gold, I don't get your mathematic.
    1 Dreadstone = 10 badges/50 gold vs
    50 badges = 55 gold ..

    Dreadstones are 50g uncut on my server, so in my case, you'd be making a little profit, Ametrine and so and so forth, are still going for less as well, and obviously Cardinals and Zuls and such are not worth breaking your gems down for.

    Id have to say that even tho earning money while farming heroics or badges is a decent way to have some fun (if you can see fun in it) its far from a optimal way to earn $$!

    I tend to agree with Grif.
    Although something you can do to combine with this method (mainly for tanks) is use the fairly commonly known method of selling your tanking services for like 50g per run or what ever the going rate on your realm is.

    I'm a decent paladin tank. 44k health. Farming heroic BC instances by myself takes time, but still do able so far I've tried. I've tried up to H Steam vaults solo. From on then it's harder and may need a healer.

    It's still a little faster if you do random heroics.
