How to make gold at level 40 to 50 in WoW Forever

Gold at level 40 to 50 in World of Warcraft: Forever: with the mount bought, which higher materials and 200 to 250 skill recipes pay, which drops sell, and how to start saving for endgame.

Priced on PvP Horde, scanned Oct 4, 2:53 AM UTC. Another market: PvP Alliance · Normal Horde · Normal Alliance

In short

  • With the mount bought, level 40 to 50 is where a character starts to build the gold that endgame consumes: the mount doubles your farming speed, so your hourly income should double with it.
  • Materials between 200 and 250 skill are the first ones whose price is set by endgame crafters rather than levellers, and they hold value.
  • Dungeon drops at this level sell for real gold, and the recipes that drop there are often worth more than the gear.
  • Start pricing your time: a farm that earns less per hour than the materials you would gather elsewhere is a hobby, not income.

This week on PvP HordeIncense Candle up 809%, Magician's Mantle down 90% against the 7 day median. This week's report has every market; the market page has the full leaderboards.

What you can reach

With a mount, every farm you knew is twice as fast, so your income per hour should be twice what it was. If it is not, the farm is wrong, not the mount. Between 40 and 50 your skills pass 200, and for the first time the materials you gather are priced by endgame crafters rather than by levellers, which means they hold their value between weeks.

Dungeons at this level drop gear that sells for real gold and recipes that sell for more. Start reading the recipe pages before you list one; the difference between a recipe that every crafter has and one that few do is the difference between silver and gold.

What to sell

  • Materials at 200 to 250 skill. Priced by endgame demand. Sell at the median; do not chase the board.
  • Recipes that clear the cut. The recipes block names them for your market, with the margin after the house cut.
  • Dungeon drops. Gear once, recipes always.

What to skip

Farms that earn less per hour than the materials you would have gathered elsewhere. From here, price your time. A farm is income when it beats the alternative and a hobby when it does not, and a hobby is fine as long as you call it that. Skip gear purchases unless the deals block shows the piece well under its median; you are two bands from endgame gear.

The crafting margins page ranks every recipe on your market every hour. The block on this page is the slice at your skill.

When to move on

Past 250 skill you are in level 50 to 60, the last stretch, where everything you gather is what endgame consumes.

Common questions

How do you make gold at level 40 to 50 in WoW Forever?
With the mount bought, level 40 to 50 is where a character starts to build the gold that endgame consumes: the mount doubles your farming speed, so your hourly income should double with it. Materials between 200 and 250 skill are the first ones whose price is set by endgame crafters rather than levellers, and they hold value. Dungeon drops at this level sell for real gold, and the recipes that drop there are often worth more than the gear. Start pricing your time: a farm that earns less per hour than the materials you would gather elsewhere is a hobby, not income.
Which recipes pay at level 40 to 50?
The ones a character in this band can learn, skill 200 to 250, ranked above by what they earn at the current medians on PvP Horde: result price less the auction house cut, less every reagent at its median. A recipe with an unpriced reagent is not ranked, so a margin is never overstated.
What should a level 40 to 50 character sell?
The materials and drops of the zones for this level, priced above from the latest scan: what the market pays per unit and per stack, and which market pays most. Consumed goods sell again next week; a piece of gear sells once, so the list favours what gets used up.
Which market do these prices come from?
PvP Horde, the market with prices for this guide right now; switch the market at the top of the page to see another. Every number comes from players scanning that house with the addon.
