Episode# 5: Stacking Gold 101

Episode# 5 is now live and available for download. Many thanks to Brent from New Zealand for being our first-ever special guest. This week, we feature the basic (and more advanced) ways in which to maximize your gold making potential in World of Warcraft.

SHOW NOTES:

THE BREAKING WIND

In our new NEWS FOR NOOBS segment, we discuss the release of Patch 3.1.1 and also touch on the holiday event: Noblegarden. For those who are interested in doing the meta-achievement for Noblegarden, check out this guide!

We also provide a quick preview of an upcoming series we are planning that will cover each of the different classes in-game. The plan is to feature guests (with experience in each class) every week to discuss a different class. Hunter’s will be our first class, starting with Episode# 6, so send in your questions now!

A HELPING HAND

In our tips and tricks segment, we feature our first special guest on the show, Brent from New Zealand. We discuss his life-changing (well, at least game-changing) forum post on how to maximize your money-making potential in the World of Warcraft.

In our discussion, we cover:

  • Why NOT to buy gold!
  • The importance of looting EVERYTHING, including those grey and white items.
  • How to use (and read) the Auction House.
  • Maximizing your professions to bring in that extra gold.
  • And some other nifty tips and tricks learned from a 4-year veteran of WoW!

THE RAZOR’S EDGE

In the tradition of The Starting Zone, we focus on addons that relate to our helping hand segment. In this episode, we dive into the HUGE addon that is Auctioneer Suite. Prepare to learn as Brent breaks down the basics of this powerful addon. Also, feel free to visit the Auctioneer website for tutorials on how to use the different tools contained within the suite.

LISTENER EMAIL

We read through some listener email. Many thanks to zombiehead79 for providing a donut great time!
