One of the most difficult things to do is to keep motivated. Wait, I think I've said that over and over again. You probably get the idea that the next 3-4 months will be a little bit more of a drag for the average player. Many players will be logging on less and less during the week as the Mists of Pandaria expansion gets a little bit less shine on the content.
Getting prepped for the next expansion, Warlords of Draenor, can add a little bit of purpose to your gaming life. One of the prep items is your long abandoned farm in Halfhill.
You remember Halfhill? The place that was o so awesome at the beginning of MOP? Finishing your daily runs to open up new land to farm. Yes, that's right World of Warcraft had become World of Farm Craft.
So why should these plots of land become important in your future setup during Warlords of Draenor? One item that will continually be able to be made are the Motes of Harmony. Right now most players have a stockpile of these things in their inventory. Turning them in every so often for cash and prizes from the different vendor. I spend many of them on the Black and White Trillium ore for crafting purposes. Come WOD this won't be as important. Except that material could easily become much more scarce come WOD.
Look at the logic. We know that there are massive changes coming with WOD when it comes to gathering. No longer will players be needing to go to older expansion zones to gather items. This could easily mean that items such as Trillium ore and herbs become that much more valuable.
The other thing to look at is your own crafting needs. Engineering has received a long term blessing because they have pets that can be crafted. Right now they are much more expensive due to the length of time to craft (Jard's Peculiar Energy Source) and many people not continuing to craft these during the next expansion. Older crafting pets can be a good source of income with the next expansion. For 10 minutes of work a day (farming your crops, replanting) and then finishing your daily you could easily next a large amount of coin.
Other professions might not be as lucky when it comes to pets, but they still have opportunities. Simply just flipping purchased ore and herbs on the Auction House can add more money into your coffers. Where the main profit making of these items might not always be available, alternative options of selling can add much more profit into your bank.
Many players will just start with a clean slate when the WOD expansion opens its doors. Taking advantage of your knowledge and your preparation can give you that gold making advantage that others won't have.
Good Luck and Good Profit Hunting
