Multiboxers are really happy with the WQ gold buff
The elite WQs that give gold seem to give even more than triple. Last week one gave roughly 1k gold normally gave around 5k instead with the magpie buff.
Some tired dev probably entered "+200%" in their calculations with the thought that the number 2 is present in that, so it's 2x. *derp*
i run 14 level 70's and have been using that buff to my advantage since 10.1.7 came out lol. I've made bank, i don't gotta play the AH when i can just do 98% of each gold wq and park toons til the buff hits then finish them and get several toons knocked out in the 30 minutes the buff is up and make bank. lol
I wish gold was easier to make in different ways that does not deal with the AH. I miss the times where i can go run old raids for mog/mounts but still getting like 2-5k raw gold. world quests with the buff is nice gold but for me I absolutely hate doing world quests so that is a fault of my own. Also with the inflation we have been seeing the 5k a quest is not enough to last anyone really a week. I guess ill continue to buy wow tokens.
The Dreamsurge buff is really nice but it seems very awkward to try and actually make big gains from. If you're not already doing something in the zone then you're probably not even going to know if/when the buff is ever going to happen, but god forbid you came in and started clearing WQs before the buff started or you get nothing. Only way to really do this is to park spare alts at the dreamsurge, then regularly monitor the zone buffs from your main and swap over when its gold time. While it's probably still very profitable to do this, it doesn't really fit in with the 'go at your own pace' gameplay style that most of us are looking for in solo content. It's going to create a big disparity of opportunity between the people who 1. know about this, 2. have the time to monitor/manage it, and 3. have the spare characters to take advantage of it with, and the people who don't and are just coming and engaging with the content as it's presented by Blizz - who might get lucky once every couple of weeks when the gold buff happens to line up with the one or two WQs they did. While I'm all for extra opportunities being available to those who take advantage of them, I don't think this is a good design/implementation as the opportunity is not presented equally to all.
Probably calculated to give players the illusion their time matters again, kek.
I would prefer they just gave us the gold purses back from dragonriding wqs in the dreamsurge zone instead of having to slave around the zone waiting for the buff that might not and is often not up for several hours , then moving all chars etc no its just give us back our gold bags

Calculating gold made per week on base of these drop which sell for a bit, is difficult, there are not many buyers of these things and currently maybe not many farmers who sell the drop too, but if there are more running now influenced buy this article it could go down the drain very fast, no more demand because the few who would buy have already plus a surplus in drop getting registered to the AH, means you earn alot elss if any gold per week.
The transmog sales are impressive, although the entire sample would only ever happen on realms like area52, illidan, stormrage, malganis, sargeras, ect.
