Stratholme Instance Farming



Instance farming is one of the most fun ways to make gold and as an added bonus you can take lower level characters with you, either other players and charge them for the free ride, or your own and level them up while making lots of gold.




Stratholme is the best money maker I know of in the game right now. I put the picture above into this section because I've never had that happen before. While clearing the Abominations before Baron I pulled them all at once and AoE'd them and 4 of the same Bind on Equip Belt dropped, Belt of Valor. Shortly after the Valor Gauntlets dropped, that's 5 BoE Blues in like 1 minute. Now that's not a common occurrence but it goes to show how rich with money Strat is.

Strategy to Make Gold
To make money in Stratholme you will really want to bring an Enchanter with if you aren't one. If you can't do that, it's fine, just sell the items instead; but the Large Brilliant Shards sell for 7-9 gold each on my server, your server might be different but count that up. There are around 14 bosses in a full clear, each one drops a rare blue item that can be disenchanted into a Large Brilliant Shard, that's 14x say 7 gold each, that's 98 gold right there from just the boss kills. Now I usually get 3-10 rare Bind on Equip drops from the zone, these things can be sold for as much as 50g but usually sell for let's say 10g on average. That's another 30-100g right there from BoE Blues. The next thing you're looking for is Righteous Orbs from the live side, I average about 2-5 per run, those sell for 20g on average, that's another 40-100g in Righteous Orbs per run. You're already up to a potential of 300g for the run. Then you have other things like cloth and you can make money running people through. There's also a rare chance at getting a mount off the Baron and you have to take into consideration that the Baron and other bosses drop 2-3 blue items per kill, that's way beyond the 14 total blues i calculated up top. This zone has the most potential for easy farming. The best feature is you don't really need to depend on running people through to make money and it can be profitable done solo.
