Epic flying (5000G skill + mount) is the biggest gold sink in the early TBC Anniversary phase. Most players hit the same wall:
“I need 5000G fast, but I don’t want to wait weeks farming or risk a huge order going wrong.” 🤔
Here’s a clear, no-fluff guide to the real costs, why preparing now is a big advantage, and the safest way to buy a large amount of gold without extra stress. 💰
📊 Exact Cost Breakdown for Epic Flying

To fly in Outland you need two things:

  • Artisan Riding (Epic Flying Skill): 5000 Gold 💸
    This is the big one — the skill itself costs a flat 5000G from the flying trainer.
  • Epic Flying Mount: 200 Gold (standard vendor epic mounts)
Total realistic budget: 5,200 Gold ✅
This covers the skill + a standard epic flying mount. Rare (60%) flying mounts cost only 100 Gold if you want a slower option first.

Druid Tip: Druids have an alternative path with Swift Flight Form (quest chain + Anzu summon) — no extra mount cost after learning the 5000G skill. 🐦
🚀 Why Preparing Gold Now Is a Huge Advantage
Right now in the early Anniversary phase:
  • Gold is still relatively cheap and easy to buy. 📉
  • Prices tend to rise once more players hit level 70 and rush for flying.
  • You avoid last-minute panic when everyone is competing for trainers and mounts.
Buying your 5000G+ in advance lets you:
  • Lock in a lower price before the big rush.
  • Spread the purchase over a few smaller orders if you prefer (safer for large amounts).
  • Focus on enjoying the game instead of stressing about gold farming. 🎮
Many players who prepared early are already flying in Outland while others are still grinding or waiting on delayed orders.

🛡️ Best Delivery Options for Large Orders (5000G+)

For big orders, we treat them with extra care and recommend these safer methods:

  • ⚖️ Auction House (AH) – Usually the safest choice for large amounts. No direct mail or trade. You list items, we buy them.
  • 🧩 Split into 2–3 smaller orders – Many players do this for 5000G+. It lowers risk and is often faster.
  • 📩 In-game Mail – Still fine for most, but remember the 1-hour World of Warcraft mail delay after our completion email. ⏳

💳 Payment Tips for Large Orders

For 5000G+, we strongly recommend PayPal balance or a verified card to avoid e-Check delays (which can take 3-5 days). ⚡

Tip: After placing a large order, open live chat right away and let us confirm the details. It takes 30 seconds and helps everything go smoothly.
