WOW Farming: 1000 Gold in One Hour (Step 3)

Hi. My name is Candrena. I am the Bank Toon for WowFarmer.org. A Bank Toon is a toon that never leaves the vicinity of the Guild Bank, Auction House and the MailBox. You might be asking, "Is a Bank Toon really necessary to make 1000 gold per hour in World of Warcraft?" A Bank Toon is not necessary, but it sure makes farming and making gold in the AH (Auction House) easier.

Here is a good reason why: Its one thing to make gold with one toon, but you can make alot more gold if you create ten toons, put them all in the same guild, using one toon as a Bank Toon and the other nine can be strategically placed all around Azeroth farming the different regions for the different materials (Matts) needed in order to make the high demand items that sell for gold in the AH.

WOW Farming: 1000 Gold in One Hour (Step 2)

There are two more addons that will assist you in your quest for gold.

They are:

1. Auctionator


2. Postal

Auctionator makes buying and selling in the Auction House easier and Postal makes it much easier to deal with mail.

WOW Farming, 1000 Gold in One Hour (Step 1)

I would like to say its going to be easy but like most good things in life, you have to work for it.

The first thing I would like to recommend is to download the two addon's Gathermate2 and Gathermate2_data from Curse.com.

Addon's are programs that you can insert into your AddOns folder which is located at:

C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns

This is how you install an addon:

Installation Guide

1. Exit "World of Warcraft" completely
2. Download the mod you want to install
   • Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
   • Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
   • If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".
3. Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
   Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!
   • Windows
     • Windows XP has a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
     • WinRAR: Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
     • WinZip: You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed
   • Mac Users
     • StuffitExpander: Double click the archive to extract it to a folder in the current directory.
4. Verify your WoW Installation Path
   That is where you are running WoW from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
5. Move to the Addon folder
   • Open your World of Warcraft folder. (default is C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\)
   • Go into the "Interface" folder.
   • Go into the "AddOns" folder.
   • In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
   • The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.
   • Move the "Addonname" folder into the "AddOns" folder
6. Start World of Warcraft
7. Make sure AddOns are installed
   • Log in
   • At the Character Select screen, look in lower left corner for the "addons" button.
   • If button is there: make sure all the mods you installed are listed and make sure "load out of date addons" is checked.
   • If the button is NOT there: means you did not install the addons properly. Look at the above screenshots. Try repeating the steps or getting someone who knows more about computers than you do to help.

This guide can be found at the install tab from most addons on Curse.com
