Started Midnight in Season 2 – What are the best gold farms for someone who skipped S1?

Hey everyone,

I just came back to WoW and started playing Midnight in Season 2, so I completely skipped Season 1.

I'm basically starting from scratch when it comes to professions and gold making. I'm playing a Druid and I recently picked up Herbalism + Mining, but I'm not necessarily looking for gathering-only methods.

What would you recommend for making gold at this point in the expansion?

I'm especially interested in:

• Good solo gold farms
• Farms that don't require a huge amount of starting capital
• Whether Herbalism/Mining is still worth investing into this late
• Which zones/routes are currently best for gathering
• Any daily/weekly activities that are particularly profitable
• Other professions that would be worth switching to
• Farms that can realistically make decent gold consistently, rather than relying on rare transmog drops

Since I didn't play S1, I'm also pretty far behind on profession knowledge. Does the catch-up system make it realistic to catch up now, or will I always be significantly behind people who started at launch?

My goal isn't to get rich overnight — I'd just like to find something I can consistently farm when I'm not doing M+ and build up a decent amount of gold.

Any advice from people actively gold farming in S2 would be really appreciated. Thanks!
