Hi there,
Today I found a nice way to grind some gold. I got roughly 3000g per hour from it, depending on server prices. There are better ways to grind gold, but if you dont have gathering proffesions like me, this might help.
We are gonna farm big packs of mobs in Deepholm, with a Potion of Treasure Finding buff (Potion of Treasure Finding - Item - World of Warcraft).
The mobs we are after:
Jaspertip Swarmer: Jaspertip Swarmer - NPC - World of Warcraft
Stone Bat: Stone Bat - NPC - World of Warcraft
They respawn quite quickly, only takes about 20 seconds to find a group, they roam around alot.
They are easily AoE'd down, as a Shaman I only needed a Magma Totem and 1-2 Fire Nova's.
Here's a list of items that I got after 1 hour.
-31 Tiny Treasure Chests.
-110 Embersilk Cloth.
-26 stacks of gray junk.
-18 gray weapons/armor.
-12 Greens.
-1 Blue BoE (Electrospark Heartstarter)
-61 Toughend Flesh
The Chests contained:
-90g
-144 Embersilk Cloth.
-8 Volatile Life
-12 Volatile Earth.
Thats in total about 13 stacks of Cloth which sells, on my server, for 140-160g/stack.
The greens, disenchanted, sells for about 200-400g.
The junk vendored for about 60g.
The Volatiles for about 600g.
The BoE sells for over 1000g on my server, but I was just lucky I guess.
In one hour I made roughly 4500g.
This needs some more testing to get a good average gold/hour. My statistics are for only 1 hour. Happy farming!
Edit: Added a video for my favourite grindspot. With current prices and the reduced Embersilk drops from trash, I still make an average of 2000g/hour.

Today I found a new spot in which this method can still be fairly profitable. Its in Vashj'ir. Our target mob is Azsh'ir Soldier (Azsh'ir Soldier - NPC - World of Warcraft) this time.
These mobs become available after you've done the quest Swift Action - Quest - World of Warcraft. (The ally version is named the same).
These mobs have 37k HP. And are grouped up tightly together. You can pull them one by one (the others wont aggro), or if you are a good AOEér, pull big groups. They respawn really fast, like 1 minute.

I got this after 1 hour of farm. Im not a tailor. With my current AH prices i can still get roughly 1000g/hour. P.S. Sorry for the large pictures, if any admin can make em smaller then please do cause i have no idea how xD.
