Maximizing Gold with Solo Farming in War Within: A Step-by-Step Guide

Are you looking to significantly boost your gold income in World of Warcraft's War Within? This guide will walk you through a highly effective solo farming method that can yield substantial gold per hour. Here’s how you can turn your time into gold with a straightforward dungeon run strategy.

Understanding the Farm

This solo farming method revolves around efficiently running a specific dungeon and utilizing professions to maximize your gold per hour. While initial reports suggested a potential of 100,000 gold per hour, practical tests have shown results closer to 60,000 gold per hour. However, with the right setup and strategy, you can still achieve impressive returns.

Setting Up for Success

Required Professions

  • Tailoring: Essential for collecting cloth from dungeon mobs. Allocate 30 knowledge points into Textile Treasures to increase cloth yield and quality. Max out Quality Fabric and unlock both Dawn Weave and Dusk Weave tailoring.

  • Inscription: Helpful, but not essential. Invest 15 points into each sigil to boost Darkmoon Deck drop rates by 50%.

Choosing Your Character

While any class can attempt this farm, some classes are more efficient at clearing mobs quickly. Consider using classes like Retribution Paladin or Fury Warrior for faster dungeon clears compared to a Guardian Druid.

Farming Strategy

Dungeon Selection

  • Dark Flame Cleft: This is the targeted dungeon for farming. Use your follower dungeon tab to queue up repeatedly.

Execution

  1. Enter the Dungeon: Use a macro to queue and enter the dungeon efficiently. This macro can save time by bypassing unnecessary loading screens.

  2. Clear Mobs: Focus on killing mobs in the first room. Some players extend to the second room without engaging the boss to avoid potential lockouts.

  3. Loot and Reset: Collect cloth and Darkmoon Deck materials. Use the macro to exit and re-enter the dungeon quickly. Jumping while using the macro can help skip loading screens.

Managing Lockouts

  • You can run instances multiple times without the typical lockout. However, after 30-40 minutes, you may encounter a temporary lockout. To maximize efficiency, alternate this farm with other activities to prevent downtime.

Maximizing Gold

  • Material Sales: Sell collected cloth and Darkmoon Decks or their components for consistent gold income.

  • Market Awareness: Monitor cloth prices, which have been rising steadily, to time your sales for maximum profit.

Tips for Efficiency

  • Knowledge Points: If leveling from 70 to 80, focus on gathering enough knowledge points for tailoring enhancements.

  • Class Efficiency: Choose a class that can clear rooms quickly to maximize your gold per hour.
