Farming as a WoW Hunter

Hunter gold farming is perhaps the easiest and fastest way of making gold in Wow. It doesn't matter what spec you are using as long as you've made sure to level your pet to 80 so it can hold decent aggro. Just being a hunter even an epic geared hunter doesn't make you a wow gold farming machine though. You need to know exactly what and where to farm. That's where you can come in.

So you probably think you need to go out and farm a whole variety of items in order to make big money in Wow but the truth is certain items are traded in such high volume that you can support every one of your needs by choosing just one. For anyone at all familiar with marketing this is called a niche. You want to establish you own niche inside Wow and dominate that market but how can you do that with so much competition? It’s worthy considering.

It really doesn't matter which item you pick as long as it is readily farmable. Eternal fires were 40 and 50 gold when Wrath first released so players quickly caught on to farming them in various spots but as competition went up more and more players gave up on this niche. So why do you want to get involved now? Simple, there are two spots you can use to constantly have a flow world of warcraft gold coming in. If you travel just east of the Sons of Hodir you will find the forge. At that forge you will find the flaming remnants.

At first glance you'll notice there are only about a dozen of them and you might even see one or two players already farming but do not leave. These mobs have a forced respawn meaning every time they are killed another mob will spawn. They are not on a timer like other mobs. There will always be a mob to kill and you should be able to grind out 8-10 eternals and hour with little to no problem. Depending on your server this should get you in the neighborhood of about 200 gold. Now take that and couple it with the various vendor trash and greens that have been dropped and you easily crack 350 gold for one hour of farming.

If for some reason you simply refuse to farm at this golden spot there is another spot that is second best for hunter gold farming and that is wintersgrasp. If you choose to farm wintersgrasp make sure your faction has control. When you have control of wintersgrasp all eternals have a 100% drop rate in that area meaning it's like a buffet of eternals just waiting to be plucked but don't forget they do not have a forced respawn and you may be facing some stiff competition. Anyway, wish you good luck in the game and enjoy it.
