As with most of my strategies, I look for "off the beaten path" type of money
makers. This one is no diffrent.
We will call this one...
"Please feed the twinks."
Twinking is very popular right now with the hot spots being the 10-19 WSG and
20-29 WSG. This guide will focus on the 10-19 WSG twink crowd. Farming blues can
be not only difficult because most useful ones are world drops but plain boring
as hell. This guide will show you how to make it as painless as possible.
The Strat
By far the highest concentration of kick ass twink gear is found in Shadowfang
Keep. Both caster and melee items that are BoE and in the 16-19 range can be
found here off any of the trash mobs inside. The holy grail of twink weapons is
the assassin's blade.

Rogues wet themselves for one of these and will pay upwards of 150g for one.
It's the single best dagger for that level and if you drop say firey (for the
budget twinks) or crusader (the fat wallets) on it and you are a machine on par
with the 20-29 crowd. That's why its so popular. Sadly, I GAVE this to a guildie
before I became aware of it's value. I just figured it was a decent blue dagger
and since I was a 60 rogue, didn't have any use for it.
Not a dagger rogue??? How about this 1 hand sword...

Again, sword rogue heaven. This in your main with assassin's in your off...WOW!
But Cowboy, I'm not a rogue... /cry Fear not.
Here's is the warrior's version of the assassin's blade.

I personally sold one of these for 60g. Gave the other to my warrior. Again,
drop a crazy 300 level enchant on it ON TOP of the nice proc and you've got a
death stick to be proud of.
Slightly lower in the food chain but still a nice proc is this.

Another nice 2 hander for a warrior or a pally.
If for some reason you want to carry a shield (I dunno why) and need a heavy
hitting 1 hander try this (also great for hunters).

This is aonther one I've personally sold. I set the buyout at 35g and it went in
less then 2 hours. Probably could have gotten more but oh well. Looks cool as
hell too.
Casters kinda get the hose in SFK but there are a few nice BoEs for you guys
too.
This is mainly for the stats and a lock would enjoy this much me thinks...

Not exactly what you want in WSG but the intel is very high for the level.

Yeah, that says NEGATIVE 5 stamina
That's ALOT of specific level blues in 1 place and all are BoE. The drop rates
are low just like any blue item but the mob density and relative small size of
the instance makes it much nicer then grinding world mobs hoping for a specific
item. Also, if youre an enchanter, all the boss blues DE into large glowing
shards which sell for about 1g. I average about 3-5 blues (BoP) per run and
anywhere from 6-15 green drops that I can sell on the AH from 50s to 1g50s
depending on the item. That means I'm making about 8-16g for around 30-45
minutes work. If a twink item drops then it's a whole diffrent story.
Good luck and happy twinking!
