I am going to give some more ideas on how to make some great gold for you higher leveled folks. Those damned Epic Mounts are expensive, but we will get you there... do not worry.

Farming Aldor and Scryer Reputation items are an excellent way to get tons of gold!

Aldor/Scryers Rep Farming

First things first. To be able to buy some great Rare and Epic gear you need to build your reputation with Aldor or Scryers faction in Shattrath City. You can only do one or the other since they are opposing factions.

The best way to get your Reputation up to Exalted and Revered levels you will need to turn in tokens or items that drop from mobs in the Outlands. These items are not quest-only items or Bind on Pickup, so you can farm them and sell them on the Auction House.

Aldor can farm:

- Mark of Kil'jaeden
- Mark of Sargeras
- Fel Armament

Scryers can farm:

- Firewing Signet
- Sunfury Signet
- Arcane Tome

The lower rep grinding items, Mark of Kil'jaeden and Firewing Signet, are found in Terrokar Forest and Nagrand. The mobs that drop them are in the level 62-64 range, so you will be able start on these pretty early when in the Outlands.

Higher rep items, Mark of Sargeras and Sunfury Signet, along with the rarer items that are required for enchants, Fel Armament and Arcane Tome, drop from mobs in the range of 67-70. You level 70s will be mowing these dudes down like nothing!

The prices of these will vary on your server... as always. So be sure to check your Auction House and see what the price is. Hopefully you have still been running your Auctioneer scans.

Scryers Item Locations

Do not spend too much time on Firewing Signets. If you want to try, they are only found at Firewing Point in Terrokar, dropped by Firewing Defenders, Warlocks and Bloodwarders. They are levels 63-64. You will be able to make a lot more money at this level by farming those Motes and Primals than these.

Level 68 and up, focus on Sunfury Signets. These drop in a few different locations in Netherstorm and Shadowmoon Valley.

I've had the best success in Netherstorm. You can find Sunfury mobs at all of the Mana Forges, as well as at Sunfury Hold. My favorite spot is Mana Forge B'naar. The Sunfury Geologists here, level 67-68, are easy kills and spawn really fast. They have a pretty decent drop rate too. If you work Mana Forge B'naar without much competition, it is nothing to bring in over 100g an hour.

The other hotspot for Sunfury Signet is Eclipsion Point in Shadowmoon Valley. This is Southwest of the Warden's Cage. The advantage here is that the Eclipsion mobs have a higher drop rate for the very valuable Arcane Tome.

If there is too much competition at Eclipsion Point, try Demon Hunter Supplicants just west of the Black Temple in Shadowmoon. These guys have slightly higher drop rates for both Signets and Tomes, but they are level 70 and harder to kill.
