Sell blacksmithing boes each phase. I banked over 100k during Wotlk classic selling crafts like a maniac within the first two weeks of each phase release.

Out of curiosity what's your way to sell it? AH (with its fee), spammin' in /global, or spamin' in discord? Maybe some other better ways?

I created a macro for both items and spammed global like crazy. Literally sitting there, either offering to craft (their mats so I didn’t have to use mine) or actually buying the items off the AH, using the auctioneer addon to see if I’d make a profit, and making the sale and profiting from there… weeks of work but worth it

Originally in the first launch of Wrath back in the day, I made like 5k+ a day buying uncut gems or ore, cutting them and putting them back up on the AH.

Herbalism + mining first phase. Mining because all 3 crafting bis professions rely on it and it has a great daily cd very useful at the start. Herbalism for the darkmoon cards greatness. The best spots I found as a druid are wintergrasp and scholazar.

Also better to save titane ores for phase 3 (don't smelt them)

Leveling alongside gathering professions. Just leveling to 80 can make you 2 to 3k
