Reader contest - $10 prize!


I've finally hit level 40 with my Orc Hunter and I'm enjoying riding around in style on my shiny new wolf. No major breakthroughs in money making techniques but the ability to travel more quickly and safely is a major bonus. Anyway, I'll be going on vacation for the next two months, so no more posts for a while. In the meantime I'd like to send out a challenge to the readers while I'm gone.

The challenge is to come up with the optimal way for making the maximum amount of gold per hour. The rules are below:
  • The method must be performable by a level 40 Orc Hunter with 100 Alchemy/Herbalism, 200 Fishing and 125 First Aid.
  • No bots or other automation techniques are allowed.
  • The method must be highly repeatable - i.e. no 'just grind for 3 hours and get an epic drop' sort of stuff.
  • The method must be described as a comment to this post before July 20th, 2006.
  • The winner will be announced during the week of July 20th, 2006 with the winner receiving a $10 cold hard cash (think of all the things you can buy for $10 - now don't everyone post all at once!).
Payment to the winner will be made using PayPal. Let's see what profitable new techniques this contest will reveal. Good luck.
