Curse

I used to farm chaos planes and power sell polymock pieces, which was surprisingly succesful...

But I got tired of PvE completely and now I AB/Zaishen Elite/HA(HoH) and sell my z keys...I only get about 25k a day on a good day, but I enjoy making some cash PvPing.

For earning money...here's a list of things I do:

FoW/UW Runs...I have 3 ursan chars and a really sick HB monk...they come in handy.

Running...I can do every run in every game, including most NM missions and some HM missions. Over the past few months, I've built a network of friends who like to make use of my services, and they are extremely rich.

Farming ... I farm greens, tomes, golds...been doin that since a while now. I farmed a stack of ecto in about 3 weeks after the SF buff..then I got bored.

Powertrading...buy low sell high..never fails. For instance, I purchased 100k worth of UW scrolls 2 weeks ago, foreseeing the current lack of UW scroll availability. Making a KILLING in the market right now.

Dungeon books...filling out HM Dungeon books is fun, you get sexy golds from Dungeon chests, not to mention around 4-5k just from the crap whites and blues you merch.

Daily fow clearouts (just to relax),
Paying for CoF runs (more relaxed time killing),
Doing UW with friends or pugs,
And the rest is mainly by playing the game..

Getting rich in a game is dumb, no point in farming forever or hoarding mass ectos.

My 2 cents.

General play (HM missions, etc) and occasionally selling old non-insc weps gets me more than enough now that I have all the armor/weps I need.

Tender Wolf · Jul 02, 2008, 10:10 PM // 22:10

I somehow managed to get a black dye drop today, so that was an extra 6k in my pocket.

hehe

Seriously though, usually I do the Kaineng quests over and over for the imperial commondations. Same with Kournan and Vabbian quests. For the imperial commondations and Kournan coins, I trade them in for superior salvage kits and sell them to weaponsmiths and get 1k each. It adds up pretty fast. and of course trade contracts are used to get and sell rubies.

The rest of the time I sell all materials and stuff I don't need such as weapons I ID and pick up while farming rep points, etc. The resetting treasures from Nightfall don't hurt either.

Even though I made a sin, I skipped the hype and made him a mule instead. I kept on duo farming with my real life friends instead.

- Stocking up farmed ectos, I'll see what comes out of it.
- invested in some UW scrolls a few weeks ago.
- farming zaishen elite on a few accounts to get some z-keys, as well as gambling in xunlai tournament predictions with those accounts.
- Sold a high end item I had laying around in my storage for some years.
- farming gems in DoA. There might be an increase in the price of armbraces when the HoM update arrives.
- farming materials needed for consets.

StormDragonZ · Jul 03, 2008, 04:23 AM // 04:23

Everything gets identified and sold to the merchant... even gold items.

Green items are a different story.

I'm hoping 'everything' was not too much.

I bought 40 of them myself when they were at 1.7k and I'm feeling a little red in the face

. Give it a few weeks and see what happens when the favor gets back down to zero.

OT: In the meantime, I have been soloing areas for materials, salvaging everything and converting them into rare materials for trading to players or even the merchant.

Kanyatta · Jul 03, 2008, 05:48 AM // 05:48

Bought ecto as much ecto as I could afford at 3.1k yesterday, and resold at 4.5k today. Made a solid 10k.

Usually, ZKeys is my only source of income. I don't get shit in PvE anymore.

Tender Care · Jul 03, 2008, 07:16 AM // 07:16

Solo farming with my dervish where i can, farming with my sin SF in UW and Furnance of Sorrow and Grenth's Footprint, z-keys which i use hoping to get decent staff (thing that never happened XD), running peeps when i was really in need of money, farming FoW/UW with Ursan.

Selling stuff at ridiculous prices!!!!! i'm actually too lazy to stand in Kamadan trying to sell a perfect Ghostly Staff fire magic at his real price cos noone will buy it...so i sell valuable things at a very low price and i make money faster!

EPO Bot · Jul 03, 2008, 07:22 AM // 07:22

I don't need any more money, because i already have everything i want.

Operative 14 · Jul 03, 2008, 07:23 AM // 07:23

If I'm looking for cash, I do a bit of Gates of Kryta (About 1.3k and 12 or so Orr Emblems for holidays), HM Kilroy Stonekins Punchout (~1.8k if you identify all the whites, plus the occassional lockpick and nice gold) And also Z-key farming using the Zaishen training and the monthly tournament rewards.

I'm with you^^ And I the fanciest stuff I have is some Vabbian armor and a few measly greens I like. On one hand I miss the feeling of farming and saving up for stuff, but on the other, it's nice to just wander the continents doing as I please lookin' fine ^_^

But to answer the question.... I farm luxon 'sins (Halcyon Job) and CoF if I feel the need for some mulah.

Lady Raenef · Jul 03, 2008, 10:35 AM // 10:35

No idea. I did Perma-Sin in the UW when I heard about it four days ago, but it's nerfed now. So, back to nothing again. Overtime, it just accumulates. I don't actually go out to get money.

You, must be very pissed right now.

Anyway I just HFFF, it's decent money, nothing fancy but you can work on a title at the same time.

Also HM hero hand books are a decent income while maxing the rep titles.

Omnidragon42 · Jul 03, 2008, 08:18 PM // 20:18

I run, farm excessively, and kill stuff =)
