Battle for Azeroth 8. Since the changes in Battle for Azeroth, it has become significantly harder to make gold. If you best way to make money while leveling legion on a high population server like I am, it is even more difficult. However, there are still some decent ways to make gold. One thing to note is that this is by no means an exhaustive list, there are several ways I am not mentioning that could net you better results depending on the circumstances. These are simply some ways that I have used over the years and continue to use now to make money. You will want to consider whether your main characters are on a High, Medium, or Low Population server. Auction Houses are generally more prone to manipulation if you are on a medium or low pop server, and high population servers are generally regarded as the worst places to make money due to the economy being flooded with so many suppliers. You should also consider how many alts you have running on the servers you want to make money on.
