I'm a new player who's played a fair bit off and on for about 6 years. I've never really known any good ways of making money and as a result I've always struggled in that area.

I've been trying to read up on some guides to figure out what my options are as a new character. From what I've read, gardening and harvesting Ice Ore can pay off EXTREMELY well. The problem is that I looked in the Auction house and there's been two ice ore that have sold in.... the last seven years...

What's the deal with ice ore? Is it worth making and trying to sell?

If not, could someone give me some good tips on making some cash or at the very least point me in the direction of some good guides/stickies? I'd really appreciate it!
