How to: Decent money from heroics(an obvious guide/tips)

[dinzorama]

***WORK IN PROGRESS***
Ill be writing a more in-depth guide for every instance.


Searched for this kind of thread, but didnt find any, should perhaps have searched more but here goes.

I found a easy way to make money, which is quite obvious and i am prepared to take the flaming.

Basically get some friends together(who know how to play their class and will dish out some nice dmg). After that you just go to random heroics and start farming(make sure you have an enchanter in the group).

Our comp was a holy paladin, 2 fury warriors 1 enha shaman and 1 hunter, we cleared every heroic in like 10-20 mins.

As you save so much time with the new LFG system(and not to mention the extra badges) i found myself getting from 500g-1500g an hour(depening how lucky we were with loot and rolling).

Things to think about:

-Try and do this early morning or late evening(to skip the additional instances crap)
-If you decide to do it when the additional instances crap is up use the macro: /run LFGTeleport(IsInLFGDungeon()) (taken from blizz forums, not here)
-Buy the gems which cost 10 emblems as you will earn more on it. I found the orange ones(ametrine) selling best. Thou the purple ones should sell good aswell.
You can sell them raw, or you can get someone to cut the: deadly, potent, reckless, inscribed or the luminous ametrine. Obviously take the one which sells the best on your server.
-Minimize downtime, dont let people go afk all the time.
-Try and get a good composition together, will make your heroics faster and therefor more money.

Well, if you have any suggestions or tips on how to improve this feel free to post.

Also its kinda obvious, but some people might find it helpful.

wasn't useful, because obvious is never useful.

You can't even run non-stop to every boss in every heroic in 30 minutes.

I cant think of any WOTLK heroic that one can clear properly in 10 mins.
But still at least you are trying.

Azjol nerub we did in 10 mins, just bring a cleave group, bug hadranoxx and if your group is good, u will be capped on anub.. all that is done in 10 mins.

Who tanked or am I missing something?

i tanked it, as fury.. mobs go down so fast u dont need a tank, and on hardhitting bosses i put on few pieces of tanking gear.

If you're that geared you can make more money grinding mobs for your time you know.

As a Tankadin I was able to run a pug (LFD) though AN in 12 minutes with no bug/exploit and Nexus in 16.5 minutes.

Pretty proud of the Nexus one, I'm trying to beat it but actually kinda tough...

With my friends we are able to run almost all heroics in 12-16 minutes, i think that's a good time.

Just to say, it is easy to do it in less than 20 minutes.

As a mage in mostly 245 gear (some 25 man, some 10m heroic) and a few 232 pieces, running with guildies of usually equally or almost as geared, we can clear most heroics in 10-15 minutes with little to no trouble.

And while I agree that this is rather obvious in terms of an idea for farming, if you provided a guide of what heroics to do, how to mass pull certain instances, etc then I could see this being a worth while thread.

My team for heroics are as followed.

Tankadin (Me)
x3 Mages
Restro shammy

We practically rape instances. My tankadin is geared enough for 25 man TotGC, and so are the 3 mages as well. The shaman is little below us, but it's fine for the suicidal pulls I tend to do.

Last weekend we were pretty much chain running heroics for 2 days straight, with us transferring out our alts once and awhile. (One of the mages had a decently geared paladin tank, and another had a decent geared healer for when I switched or the shammy). We pretty much got one alt full t9 in about 12 hours /played.

The only instance we couldn't really run uber quickly was Oculus, for obvious reasons. I came out of that weekend with a pretty awesome amount of dust/essences, couple shards too, and a few crystals.

This can be very profitable as long as you have the right group make up, a awesome tank and an awesome healer.
