If you want to mass your gold in WoW, you have multiple options that you can do such as gather materials, craft items, enchant gears, playing with the Auction House supply and demand, etc. Despite all that selections, apparently most of us still cling to the old ways of making gold: farming.

Bashing monsters while earning gold is a great way to testing your skill and gear while having fun at the same time. I have prepared a list of farming spots in Northrend where you can gain proper amount of gold per hour. If you are looking for information on early level farming, I recommend that you check gold farming guide.

If you have reached Northrend, here’s the list:

1. The Storm Peaks
Mobs:
- Scion of Storm (level 78); have 33% chances to drop Relic of Ulduar, 26% chances to drop Crystallized Air.
- Seething Revenant (level 79); have 34% chances to drop Relic of Ulduar, 26% chances to drop Crystallized Fire.
- Icebound Revenant (level 78); has 22% probability in dropping Crystallized Water.
- Nascent Val’kyr (level 78); always drop Dissolved Soul Essence, 0.5% chances to drop Fractured Scarlet Ruby.
- Valkyrion Aspirant (level 74); have 29% chances to drop Frostweave Cloth, 41% chances to drop Relic of Ulduar.

2. Wintergrasp (PvP territory)
Mobs:
- Tempest Revenant (level 80); have 100% chance to drop Crystallized Air.
Water Revenant (level 80); nearly always gives you Crystallized Water.
- Shadow Revenant (level 80); almost sure to give you Crystallized Shadow.
- Flame Revenant (level 80); drop Crystallized Fire in most of the time.
- Earthbound Revenant (level 80); have 100% chances to drop Crystallized Earth.
Note that these mobs can only be seen with the ‘Essence of Wintergrasp’ buff.

3. Icecrown
Mobs:
- Converted Hero (level 79); have 40% chances to drop Frostweave Cloth. For every pack, there is about six mobs included; so the strategy is round them up and finish them quickly, thus you can have proper gold per hour rate.

4. Dragonblight
Start from south of Venomspite and keep moving south while taking down every mobs that you encounter. Most of them are humanoid type, so you’ll gain gold from them as well as various items. If your level is high enough, you can finish them quickly without much difficulties (most of the NPC are between level 70 and 73).

When you reach The Forgotten Shore, sweep the coast line for more mobs, then get to the ship and kill even more mobs. By the time you have done, the previous mobs should have respawn  already, so go back to where you came from and repeat the whole process.

Note: before you get start, check the items prices at your realm first; that way you can go for the one that offer maximum profits. Of course, checking prices is only a basic thing to do, check gold secrets review for more advanced AH method to maximize your earning from farming.

With so many options in gold making, obviously one will be better than the other. Eg: a player that have mastered Auction House can earn more gold in shorter time line that the one that mining ore for hours. Nevertheless, farming is still one of the best method if you know WHERE and WHAT to farm. Find the answer for this in the list of best gold guides at how to make wow gold.
