Now that we have got you adjusted to the gold-making lifestyle, we will start exploring your major sources of income. When you dedicate time to gold-making, you will typically be farming, crafting, or playing the Auction House (flipping, arbitrage, and so on). In this chapter we will be discussing farming and manufacturing (crafting), as flipping and arbitrage are advanced topics that will be discussed at a later time in Chapter 7, Expanding and Streamlining Your Empire and Chapter 8, The Final Stages of Becoming a World of Warcraft Gold Tycoon.
By the end of this chapter, you will be setting up farming routes and bulk crafting. Some shortcuts to expedite your crafting, such as pricing and shuffle, will also be introduced in this chapter.
