Default Best bones for beef broth?

For making beef broth at home, what would be the best cut of beef to produce a high yield and good flavor? I tend to make oxtail soup a lot, but it gets expensive.

Beef knuckles, shanks, shoulders, etc. Anything that has a lot of cartilage will yield a nicely flavored stock with a lot of viscosity.

Ditto. Don't forget to deglaze the pan after roasting the bones.
