How to Make Gold for a Flying Mount in WildStar

WildStar features a massive game world and many zones where players may fly on their own beasts or machines. Flying mounts boast 100 to 280 percent higher speeds than running on foot and may traverse any terrain. The fastest of these mounts require players to learn the flying skill. The skill may be trained at any expansion flying trainer at a cost of lots of wildstar gold. Players regularly face this challenge as each character must obtain her own gold to gain this skill.

Gathering Gold
1.Visit a trainer to learn any of the gathering skills. Skinning, mining and herbalism let you gather materials from the game world.2.Collect enough of your chosen gathered goods to fill all of your character's bags. Don't return to town until all of your bags are full if you wish to maximize gathering time.3.Sell the gathered goods at any major town's auction house. Rarer goods such as uncommon flowers, gems or skins will sell for much higher amounts, but will also be harder to find

Crafting Skills
1.Select a crafting skill which complements your gathering. Alchemy and inscription benefit from herbalism, and mining leads directly to engineering, jewelcrafting and blacksmithing. Skilled skinners will likely want leatherworking. Anyone can take up enchanting.

2.Craft consumables for other players. Consumables are one-use items which include potions, elixirs, flasks and glyphs. Players are always in need of a steady supply of these items. Alchemists may also transmute trade goods needed by the other professions, such as bars and gems, from base materials.

3.Create item enhancements. Enhancements increase the abilities of items, and a player must replace these whenever he upgrades his equipment. Enchantments, cut gems, belt buckles, sharpening stones and armor kits are common item enhancements.

4.Make pets and mounts for sale. Most engineering items may only be used by other engineers, but there is a very large market for engineered pets and mounts. These items may be used by anyone.5.Sell your crafted items on the Auction House. Remember the cost of materials and the availability of the item when pricing your sales. Goods which require recipes from higher instances and raids will sell for far more than common items.
