Rogue+Another = Amazing Gold
I also have imp sap. Go to the crypts instance in auchdoun and stealth to the very end of the second room.
Odds are there is a chest there that is locked or un locked, but w/e. it is guarded by 2 elites, 1 is imp sapable, the other is not but no worries if u imp sap the immune one nothing bad will happen. imp sap the non immune one, kill the other elite, who is level 65-66. Beware he spawns 2 adds usually that are random, so use COS and blade fury if u got it. that with adren rush and evasion is kickin.... so kill the first mob, and depending on your heath afterwards... it varies from almost dead to more than 75%.... either vanish or kill the other mob, he also spawns 1-2 mobs.
Loot chest and you’re done. Also as a bonus, there is usually an anchient lichen/ adaman mine right there as well. I’ve gotten 2 BOE blues, 1 living ruby and some other gems/green d/e fodder. 7g per chest in gold as well.
Enjoy and GG BLIZZ. I’ve also seen a 70 priest do this, holy spec using mind sooth to make it to the end of the room, and into a corner. Then mind control one mob, use it to kill the other and be burned down itself. Then dps it the rest of the way. Should be easy. By the way there was a ton more tips like this over at Killer Guides, maybe I'll submit a couple more when I get time.

Easy Gold With Flask Of Distilled Wisdom Recipe
When you're exalted w/ Cenarion Expedition, you can buy the Flask of Distilled Wisdom Recipe from Fedryen Swiftspear in Zangarmarsh.
This costs only a few gold (4) and is NOT BOP!
However, it does require you to be CE Exalted to learn it - but most people don't understand that.
So you can buy a few of these for a few gold and resell them for up to 100g depending on your server.
I've made about 400g so far, only putting one up at a time using an alt so it's not flooded.
GL and enjoy before it gets nerfed! No worries though, the boys over at WoW eXtreme are on top of that. They cost a little money, but it was well worth it.

Warlock Insane Farming
God they were almost giving away this info at WoW Mastery Guide. There's several good aoe spots in the outlands(you can't have mine lol):p It basically takes a team of 2. It could be done if you are an sl lock but just not worth the time. I've powerleveled and farmed with basically every class with this ONE warlock spell. Just have your buddy round up a bunch of mobs and hold them in place while u toss out 5-6 seeds out. I use shadowfury to set it off but if u got a mage that will do just as well. Pallies can easily round up and hold these mobs till you get the seeds off. Even my 66 shaman buddy can do it. Frost mages are real good to ice block then nova and blink out after rounding up the mobs. Warriors work fine too as long as you aren't pullng casters.
Just try it for yourself if you are a lock. First time i tested it i pulled all of andorhol around araj with my blueberry and blew up the whole place in seconds. It's pretty ridiculous. It's bound to get nerfed soon its just not right lol so have fun with it once you get it. I'll give yall the spots once i get exalted with my factions :p
Perfect spot is the manaforge b'naar to the west of area 52 in netherstorm. Full frost mage with points in improved blizzard is by far the best combo ive farmed with. We were pulling roughly 3k rep per hr combined together. Just get the spawn rotation down and pull packs of around 10 geologists. He pulls novas blinks and runs blizzard on them. Start seeding right after the nova. On bigger pulls have him ice block till they all round up on him then nova and blink out.

WHERE TO LEARN THEM

- Driaan,Journeyman Jewelcrafter – trains Apprentice level and trains designs up to 70 skill.
- Padaar,Expert Jewelcrafter – trains up to Journeyman level and trains designs up to 135 skill.

Grinding to 300
There are some worthwhile designs in the 1-300 range, especially if you have low-level alts that can make use of the early designs. However, many people picking up Jewelcrafting will be level 60 characters keen to start cutting their own socketable jewels as soon as possible.You can get to 300 skill using only Azerothian materials; here’s how.

This is the path I’d recommend for grinding to 300 skill. Obviously, this grinding guide doesn’t take into account availability – if you have masses of Truesilver to hand, for instance, you would probably want to substitute truesilver recipes in to save on mats you have less of.
Also note that there are many paths to 300, depending on what you have available. Make your selections based on what you have on hand, how much mats cost on your Live server, and how much bank/bag space you’ve got. I’ve had a lot of feedback from people who are choosing different paths to get to 300, and that’s fine. I plan on making a companion document for ‘alternative grinding paths’; I chose the above path becausea)
it doesn’t rely on getting skillups off yellow recipes, so you can guarantee you have enough mats to reach 300 (which is important for people without miner characters)b)
it provides output that can be disenchanted or auctioned to recoup some costs.
Caveat! Before you start blowing hundreds of gold on stockpiling materials in preparation for The Burning Crusade, remember that this is based on a beta. Things can anddo change. I can’t make any guarantees that Blizzard won’t turn around tomorrow and change the mats,skill levels or anything else about a recipe or twenty.
Note:
keep all ‘trade goods’ combines (copper wire, bronze settings etc) as you will need them in later recipes. You can use, vendor, DE or AH the other combines as you please.Note:
in many cases, you can still get ‘free’ skillups by making more of a yellow combine if it’s a required component -- eg at 20, Delicate Copper Wire goes yellow, but you still need to make more wires as components for later combines, so they will provide quite a lot of skillups if you do them first, allowing you to economise on later combines. This is particularly true of Delicate Copper Wires and Thorium Settings; the other Trade Goods combines are less vital. The above mats table does not presume this effect.
E.g. the Ruby Pendants of Fire, Glowing Thorium Bands and Emerald Lion Rings all require 1 Thorium Setting per combine, making for 45 in total. You will already have 10 on hand from the 225-235 step; if you make another 10 settings straight away you may get anywhere from 5-10 skillpoints from them (while the recipe is yellow), allowing you to do 5-10 less of the uby Pendant combines to cut down on use of more expensive mats.
What About Prospecting?
Prospecting is a subskill you can train at 20 skill. It acts just like Disenchanting – you Prospect 5 ore; it destroys the ore and you get back a piece of grey vendor trash (Copper Powder, Iron Powder etc.) and the chance of one or more gems. This chance is variable; I don’t yet know the average chance of a success, as I haven’t done much prospecting.The gems are of a type that you would get from mining that ore – e.g. prospecting 5 Tin Ore can give you Shadowgems or Lesser Moonstones (or both); prospecting 5 Fel Iron Ore can give you one of the new Outland gems.
Prospecting is orange until 40 skill; it goes grey at 70 skill. You may choose to skill up at low levels on prospecting; if you have a surplus of copper ore and relatively few gems, it may be a good idea.
What About the Jewels?
As you can see from the design list, Jewelcrafting is all about rings, trinkets, necklaces etc until 300 skill. At that point, you can begin learning gemcutting recipes to turn Outland gems into jewels that can be put into equipment sockets.There are two categories of gems that can be turned into jewels. There are six Uncommon (green) gems: Azure Moonstone, Blood Garnet, Deep Peridot, Flame Spessarite, Golden Draenite and Shadow Draenite. These can be found by mining Fel Iron nodes or by prospecting Fel Iron Ore. These six gems provide the bulk of jewelcrafting materials.
A few powerful recipes call for Rare gems: Dawnstone, Living Ruby, Nightseye, Noble Topaz, and Talasite. There are also two transmuted gems: Earthstone Diamond and Skyfire Diamond, which are made by Alchemists from a lot of expensive and rare materials. These are used in high-level ‘meta gem’ recipes (see Pern’s FAQ for more information) and are not really something to skill up with.
What About Sockets?
You may have noticed there’s no mention of a skill to add sockets to an item. That’s because there isn’t one. Items come with sockets or not at all; you can’t add sockets to an existing item.* Credit Goes Ultimate WoW Guide *
