Dynamite thread, thanks very much to all that have contributed, have made 2-3 thousand gold this week through some planning after reading all this. I have 3 lvl 70s (jc/miner - herb/alch - tailor/enchant) all on max skill.
I'm using all the techniques - buy cheaper at weekends, Large Prismatics/green quality created by enchanter via JC and even grinding a bit in SMV (150-200g/hour). The one skill I cannot use to create lots of money is herbalism. I have a druid that has epic flight form and that can herb at the speed of heat (in flight form) but the herbs sell for peanuts, even at peak times for the raiders. A stack of felweed goes for 7G, raqgveil for 5-8G, dreaming glory 10g and even things like mana thistle go for 10g a stack. Golden Sansam goes for 15G which is double Felweed for some crazy reason. Even the -rarer- netherbloom/nightmare vine go for under 20g a stack and are not that easy to collect, and time is money friend..
If I look to alchemist on that character I can make super mana/health potions/major agi - a stack goes for under 10G so not worth it. Some of the more exotic potions/elixirs are sometimes sold but not at great prices. That leaves Fel Lotus and primal life as the only real money making parts of herbalism. Am I missing out on something? To get epic flight skill on this char I used to collect terocone and mana thistle etc all day long but in those days they sold for 40-70g a stack. Those days have been and gone.
