Use a combine since picking it by hand takes too long?

Do a search for "farming" and you will get lotsa ideas.

Yichi · Dec 13, 2005, 04:48 PM // 16:48

simple answer - there is no quick way. It takes lots of time and patience.

complex answer - salvage things for materials, then sel lthe materials back to the material traders when the price is right. also can be done with drops. if you get a gold req 9 longbow, sell it unid'd if you dont need it. those can fetch around 20-25k unid for example.

Basicaly there are a few ways to get gold. Farming, Trading, Running people, Scamming (highly discouraged and by no way am i condoning this), or ebay (which is against ANET's Tearms of agreement and again highly discouraged and not reccommending or condoning it)

also did we really need 3 threads on this?

Just pick it when it is ripe.

Repeatedly enter the Thirsty River mission on your own, kill the Rockshot Devourers, then sell the bleached carapaces. You can make millions, and ANet will never nerf it, because no-one knows about it.

Jetdoc · Dec 13, 2005, 06:55 PM // 18:55

Use a sickle to reap it. And a max damage sickle is the only proper way to do it.

I thought it was "Bleached Shells" not "carapaces" that sold well? I just salvage carapaces..i've never seen a demand for 'carapaces' anywhere..then again, I may be in the retarded districts, who knows? Anyways, hit me back Mish.

this christmas event, go to Nolani and farm char carvings. then stock up on as much christmas stuff as u can find. then months later sell them for ridiculous prices....... still seeing it done with the haloween things...

Sol_Vie · Dec 13, 2005, 07:56 PM // 19:56

Heh I'm not selling my Halloween things. I still have 20+ of each item.

Jetdoc · Dec 13, 2005, 07:59 PM // 19:59

Halloween items will sell for at least 10K each in the coming months. All of those that stocked up on 250+ Squash Serums will be LAUGHING when everyone comes scrambling to their door, looking for the next Serum "fix".

"Gotta make my head orange, gotta make my head orange, gotta gotta gotta..."

"WTT my squash serum for a crystalline sword!"

Yichi · Dec 13, 2005, 08:01 PM // 20:01

before i deleted my old lvl 9 mes that had a pumpkin crown, i sold it for like 5k to someone who had to have a pumpkin helm, eventhough he couldnt use it. he said he wanted it for novelty....... whatever dude

unfortunately this is more true than most people give it credit for....

chris_nin00 · Dec 13, 2005, 08:17 PM // 20:17

They have retards when you enter the game.

ohhhhh!!!
You set yourself up. Sorry about that.

As for farming for money...
-Running
-Selling
-Scamming(highly discouraged, looked down upon in some societies)
-Farming
-Doing a jig
-Prostitution(Also discouraged, although I do know some people that make a pretty penny doing this)
-Begging
-Acting for a movie
-Work at the market stand selling runes at ridiculous prices.
-Just be creative

Good luck making money
By the way I only have 5k on my account

Quick Tip: Ever tried applying Dye Remover to a Bleached Carapace?
I'm suprised how few people know about this...
Consider yourself hit,
