UPDATE: This has been nerfed. The mobs that spawn no longer drop loot.

I saw this on YouTube and thought it was a interesting way to make some gold while you are AFK. Now, this isn’t a totally AFK method, can’t rely on it for 12 hours straight or more, but it really is nice if you want to farm some gold while doing other things for a few hours.

It’s not fantastic gold per hour but every little bit helps when you are away. Diablo Pablo only had 90% gold find when he did this video (40k gold per hour) and I’m sure a nice increase in gold find (200%+) will make it pay off much better for you.

This is a pretty specific strategy for making gold and it requires the Demon Hunter’s use of his Ferret companions (sorry other classes). They are the ones that do pretty much all the work picking up gold.

Like I said earlier, you will want to check in on the game every once in awhile to repair your gear and pick up some items that dropped. Overall, a pretty interesting way to make gold that I would have never thought of myself.

Thanks Diablo Pablo for sharing this!

UPDATE 6/9/12: Blizzard has nerfed the amount of gold that drops from pots of ashes in Act 1. Hearing from a lot of players that it really is bad. Some players not able to make more than 50-80k at this spot per hour. Another one bites the dust!

I put together a video walking you through one of the great ways to make anywhere from 200k-400k per hour in Inferno. The best part of this is that you don’t really need all that much “good” gear, just gold find gear. You hardly encounter any mobs and the ones that you do are just basic skeletons.

Right now I am at 216% GF and can make around 300k per hour in this location with the occasional rares, blues, tomes, and even health potions. 🙂 Rares don’t happen very often at all from breaking pots, but was able to get a nice one in the video.

Watch the video for all the details of this spot. I figured it would be easier to show you in the video than trying to type it all out.

Thought I would do a post and share how I’ve been making 200,000 gold in an hour on Nightmare difficulty. The beauty of this is you don’t have to be in Inferno trying to farm out gold running the same small strip over and over again. This is especially great for new level 60 players that really don’t have a ton of gold yet. I believe this works even better if you have a Demon Hunter, but with it being in Nightmare difficulty any class should be able to farm 200k gold an hour.

This is pretty simple and I am going to share my build, GF stats, and strategy just after the break.

I took some time today to unlock the new secret “cow” level. It really isn’t a secret at all that it exists but I know it can be difficult to find everything you need to know about it in one place. Hence, the purpose of this guide.

I’m going to walk you through all the steps that you need to take in order to start slaughtering teddy bears and ponies while eating cupcakes.

WARNING! You may need your sunglasses to play it.

Diablo 3 is going to be released on May 15th. 11 days left (as of this writing). Everyone is very excited and want to get the jump but don’t forget to watch out for scam guides.
