Introduction

Welcome to my twinking guide, Here I will explain everything you will need to know (more in the coming posts) about twinking, including Who/what/when/where/why and HOW! This guide will (eventually) cover important, previously un-adressed information like; Funding, What you will need to accomplish, Where to concentrate your effort(defense, offense, etc.)

Whatever reason you chose to make a twink, you've chose the right reason. Some make twinks to "catch-up" while others do it out of boredom. Here you will learn steps you will need to take in order to meet your own needs.

Funding your Twink..

Okay, Lets be down to earth. not everyone has 5,000 gold to spend. You might have anywhere from nothing to 500 gold.

I've found a few posts on the internet about making money. there are many choices here..

A.Scam your way to finacial freedom
Either you dis-approve this method or not, bottom line it makes some serious gold. Things like mass mailing "dontations" and even things like 500 gold for a wrapped gray item.
 

B.Cash into Gold
You might have contemplated laying down the green in exhange for some gold, I've done this and it does work. You do get 1000 gold but the downside is, if you arent used to having that much money, it goes by way too quickly. Instead of buying that one epic, you can do things like buy the mats to make an epic item of your profession or get an alt to 300/300 of a "money making" profession. If you invest it, you will get much more in return.

C.Quest for it
With the XP into Gold with patch 1.10, this method may work. i've noticed i usually come up short handed in UBRS raids. i'll earn 1 gold an hour, and make about 3-4 gold then have to repair my armor for 3 gold 38 silver. You can grind for it, and quest for it. this is a lot of work, but if your up to grinding for 500g to get an enchant for your alt, no one is stopping you.

-Breakdown
All of these methods work, including some not mentioned. mass-resell, and reselling epics, or "farming" those leet purples might work for you. Basically you need something to fund your newly aquired character.
