Today is Pirate's day, and that means Booty! And cross server gold transfers!

Not the human kind of booty.
The Big, full, heavy and swollen bags of booty! Big Bag of Booty - Item - World of Warcraft

You can buy these things in Booty Bay for 300 gold, and upon using them they drop an average of 285 gold. What a ripoff, right?
Not really! Other players can loot the piles of gold that they drop, making this a premium item for transferring gold directly across servers, accounts or characters through a low profile method that's only available once a year! On pirate's day! Yarrrr.

There must be an exploit with this right? Like duping gold and shit

**HunterHero** · 09-19-2016

This has been exploited to an extreme extend for gold sellers the past couple of of years. If you're lucky to find a place where they stack and loot these, then you can loot their gold while they afk this. Good luck finding them though

Use Yeti, get the OBject id# for the gold piles, start looking for where they are transfering.

How would I go about finding the object ID?

**TehVoyager** · 09-19-2016

wowhead.

as an example:

The Copper vein (the object that appears in game that you mine copper ore from) the wowhead URL is this:

Code:

http://www.wowhead.com/object=1731/copper-vein

in that, the Object ID would be the number after object=. wowhead simply uses blizzards internal object id#s for catagorizing there objects.

so, for the piles of gold, find the exact name of the object that spawns in game and look it up on wowhead. once you find it, verify its the right item, then pull the object ID# out of the URL.

This may be a bit of a PITA to track down.

235985 is the id for the gold coins

**TehVoyager** · 09-19-2016

you sure?

Also now a days if the botters transfering gold arent using a phased area (MOP farm, garrison, etc) then they're pretty stupid.
