Molten Front dailies - How to make gold with Leatherworking

There is one specific Leatherworking pattern available from the Molten Front vendors that is quite a gold maker, even though many say it's not worth it because the material costs are heavy. That is one of the reasons I like this method, because everyone else thinks you can't make gold with it!

If you're not at skill 525 yet, there's extremely profitable 25 additional points to be gained aswell!



Leatherworking skill of 500 needed
The item in question is Triple-Reinforced Mining Bag, and it can be purchased from Ayla Shadowstorm after completing the "Filling the Moonwell" quest.

It's material costs are quite heavy:
  • 3 x Pristine Hide

  • 15 x Volatile Earth

Usually Pristine Hide sells for about 300g and Volatile Earth for 1g, making the materials cost a little over 900g. The bag will sell in 12 hours though, at least on high population realms even if you put a price tag of 1500g on it. 2000g attracts buyers also, but patience is needed if you're going over 1500g.

Note that if the materials are too expensive, you can't make gold with this method. Sometimes people can also undercut heavily. If that happens, it's better to wait until they've sold their products first.

There's lots of other patterns, recipes and schematics available from the vendors too that will make you quite a bit of gold! I will post more about these later on.
