clearing up fast cash thread - Page 2 - Guild Wars Forums

1. Farm for money and items resell (like the rest of us)
2. Buy items low from players and resell them for a profit
3. Play the collector game (example = Buy troll tusks for 20G each Trade 5 to the collector in snake dance for an item worth 150 gold)
4. Learn a trade like running to Droks, skill capping guide, Mission runner for profit, Power Leveler
5. Collector of collector item drops (Example collect as many Oni claws as you can from farming then go to the collector that trades for that item- Spam Oni claws 100 G each)

I am with TwinRaven - To sit and wait for someone to accept your price of 10K for 30-60 minutes is crazy to me. When you can sell the item in 5 minutes for 8k. I can troll farm and make up the difference. (I have limited time when I play, so I can not waist the precious time I have spamming)

If you want to make cash a bit quicker, do the opposite of what conventional wisdom might suggest: sell low.

That is one of the best pieces of advice I have ever seen on these forums.
Too many people are willing to stand around for hours trying to sell their overpriced items. If I can sell mine for a lower price in 10 minutes then I have made money and am right back out there getting another item to sell and will make more money than anyone standing around for hours.

As for the original post, why do you need to make the most money fast?
All these people bragging about having millions is all good, but what are they doing with it? Nothing.
Being rich in this game is useless. There is nothing to spend it on that is worthwhile. Most FoW armor is ugly (personal oppinion, not flaming anyones armor) and most of the high-end weapon skins are used by too many people so you just look like almost every other guy out there anyways.
Lemmings FTW!

Besides the methods listed above... have you tried dancing naked in pre-searing while reciting 17th century poetry?

It's common knowledge that this is how most of the major multi-millionaires in GW started out.

I hope you are kidding

Lol he is

currently, I'm farming Vermins... but I wanna go try my Monk out in Shiro'ken farming soon. Oh, and I collect ectos from dual UW runs with friends... I usually end up getting like 3k from UW runs, because of the niec fat loot. When there's only 1 ecto drop, I ask the person if I can have it for 3.2k and they always do. I jsut started, and I have 8 ectos xD
