## Summary

This video presents a gold farming strategy in World of Warcraft by repeatedly running the Alderman dungeon in the Badlands. The creator explains the simple route, focuses on high-value transmog items from the final boss Arcadus, and emphasizes the importance of volume runs due to RNG.

### Key Points

- **Series Introduction** [0:00] — Starting a series on instance farming to Alderman, a bog standard dungeon in the Badlands.
- **Dungeon Route** [0:13] — Run to Arcadus (last boss), skipping some areas, grabbing all mobs, burning them down.
- **Why Arcadus?** [0:39] — Arcadus drops a chest with greens that can be sold for decent gold, but overall transmog value is not massive.
- **High Ticket Items** [1:11] — Key items: Pendulum of Doom (~2M gold), Miners Hat of the Deep (~1M), Papau Faires (~700K), Shadow Forge Bushmaster (~1.3M), Digmaster 5000 (~2.6M), Jackhammer (gold cap).
- **RNG and Volume** [3:52] — Farming relies on RNG; many runs needed to get rare high-value drops. 10 runs likely yield nothing big.
- **Long-term Payoff** [4:29] — Consistent grinding pays off over time. Alderman is a simple gold farm.

### Conclusion

Farming Alderman in the Badlands is a straightforward gold-making method that requires many runs to hit rare, high-value transmog items. Patience and volume are key.

## Transcript

Good morning and welcome back to another
video. And today we are going to be
starting off this lovely little series
of instance farming to Alderman. Let us
begin. Now starting off with Alderman.
This is like a bog standard dungeon in
order to run. All you have to do is make
your way over all the way over towards
Arcadus which is the last boss. However,
I do skip a couple of different types of
areas within this, and you're seeing the
gameplay footage for this at this moment
in time of me actually running this.
However, I basically just grab up all of
the mobs as much as I can, burn them all
down, and it's really that simple.
Making my way all the way over to
Arcadus. Why do I make my way over to
Arcadus right at the end? This is
because he has a chest once he is
defeated which can give a few different
types of different types of greens which
which can actually be sold in the
auction house for a decent amount of
gold. Overall though demand doesn't
actually pull in an awfully massive
chunk of transmog. Mainly you're going
for these high ticket items that
actually can sell on the auction house
for a decent chunk as well. Looking at
this, the items of note that which are
is the pendulum of doom, which at this
moment in time is currently going for
anywhere around about 2 million gold,
which is uh it's a very big drop. Then
you've got these low-end ones, which are
fairly common, which is energy cloak.
You've got the miners hat of the deep,
which now drops from this uh which is
pretty awesome. And over that, that's
going for around about just under a
million gold at this moment in time.
Following on to that, you've also got
the Papau Faires, which is roughly
around about 700,000 gold. You've got
the Spy Wind Feta, only 300 gold, and
the adventurous pit helmet, which is 400
gold. Spalders of the Lost Age are going
for roughly around about half a million
gold. As well as the Legards of the
Vault, 1,300. The Monolithic Bow, nearly
60,000 gold. The Stone Vault Shiv is
around about 2,000 gold. The Shadow
Forge Bushmaster going for around about
1.3 million gold. The Beacon of Hope,
which is a very common drop as well, is
400 gold. The Digmaster 5000 is on the
loot table, but it's rarely seen, so be
prepared that you're not actually going
to get this one. And that's going for
about 2.6 million gold. The Excavators
brand, which is a fairly common drop, is
1,800 gold. The stone vault breaker bone
breaker is roughly going at the moment
for around about 83,000 gold on my
server. However, I call BS on that
because the region sale average is
around about 4,000 gold. The annealed
blade is around about 1,000 gold. Jins
Su sword, which is another high ticket
item, which actually drops more common
than not, is around about 150,000 gold.
The obsidian cleaver, 8,000 gold. And
then you've got these really high ticket
item here which is called the
jackhammer. This has not really dropped
in like forever since like Cataclysm
from Old Man. If you actually got this
from all the man like take a screenshot
and show me. But at this moment in time
on the region market value average it's
around about gold cap. So uh yeah that's
a decent chunk. Other than that, there
is two more items which is the shoveler
10,000 gold and the earn rod which is
500 gold. As you can see, there is a
decent amount of items which tend to
sell for a lot less. And then you've got
these big ticket items from all the man
which go for a stupid amount of gold and
that's because those are those ones are
really hard to obtain and you're going
to be doing loads and loads of runs.
However, you are playing with RNG here
and the value with large numbers. So,
getting those runs in as much as
possible, rolling the dice every time.
Remember, every dungeon run is a roll of
the dice whether you're going to get one
of those big ones. So, if you only do 10
and you don't get one of those big high
ticket items, I wouldn't be surprised if
you don't get them. uh you'd be
incredibly lucky if you got one or even
two of them from like a 10 run lockout.
Let's be quite frank, you're going to be
wanting to put in a lot of hours with
old man. But it does actually pay off in
the long run if you actually plan out
that you're going to be doing this every
single time and just constantly grinding
for those items if you so wish to farm
all the man up. All the man is just such
a simple gold farm in order to do and I
figured this would be a great video in
order to come back with and just explain
it in its entirety for that one. Other
than that, there is not really many
other different types of items. Mainly
people were going for those high ticket
ones. So, I'll leave it at that.
Remember, all the man is located within
the Badlands underneath the ground and
it's really easy in order to get to.
Other than that, have an awesome rest of
your day and I shall see you in the next
video which will be soon. [music]
