Mage — the gold king
The Frost mage pulls packs and destroys them with Blizzard and Arcane Explosion, and boosts low-level dungeons. This is the best gold-per-hour in the game: the right AoE spots (e.g. living/undead packs) plus paid boosts for newcomers. No class matches the mage at AoE farming.
Hunter — steady solo farm
The hunter safely and quickly clears mob and material spots: the pet tanks, Feign Death resets danger. Ideal for farming Devilsaur Leather, rare mobs and ore with a leveled gathering profession.
Warlock — DoT farm
Drain-tanking large packs with DoT pressure lets the warlock farm materials and mobs efficiently with little HP loss. A solid alternative to the mage where steady single farming is needed.
What exactly to farm
The most liquid auction materials: Black Lotus, Dreamfoil, Thorium Ore, Dark Iron Ore, Runecloth, Devilsaur Leather. Demand is steady due to consumables and crafting.
