How to make gold at level 30 to 40

Where it comes from

  • Vendors sell it for 2g 31s 52c and buy it back for 46s 30c. That is the ceiling for an auction price while vendors stock it.
  • Disenchants into Vision Dust, Lesser Nether Essence, Small Radiant Shard, worth about 47s 41c on Normal Alliance EU today. Odds below.

Disenchants into

Expected value 47s 41c per disenchant at Normal Alliance EU medians. More than the 46s 30c a vendor pays for it.

Selling the materials on: Vision Dust about 300 a day, listings clear in about 3 days; Lesser Nether Essence about 22 a day, listings clear in about 9 days; Small Radiant Shard about 2 a day, listings clear in about 50 days. Expect to wait about 50 days for the Small Radiant Shard to move.
