making money - Guild Wars Forums

Soro Family · May 10, 2009, 01:40 PM // 13:40

so... i'm trying to get kurzick elite armor, but i've spent too much money throughout the game and was only able to buy one piece.
so, i was wondering if anyone could give me any suggestions as how to make some serious gold, in not too long a time, in the factions campaign

thanks!

xunlai predictions for zkeys

^^ and go leech Jade Quarry and Fort Aspenwood. Trade the Alliance faction in for Amber Chunks and the Balthazar Faction for z-keys. Sell the z-keys 4k each and your set.

A) Don't listen to this advice.

B) Read the stickies so your thread doesn't get closed like it's probably about to be.

Ok, please DO NOT, for the love of god, encourage more leechers(shoots a dirty sideways look at isildorbiafra). there are enough as it is and leeching will likely get your account banned. And as for making money, just go play JQ alot(not leech

)and trade the kurz fac for amber/passage scrolls and sell em (100g per scroll) and trade the balth fac for z keys and sell em for 4k. Thats what i do and i get 60k+ per week usually.

Sarevok Thordin · May 10, 2009, 03:14 PM // 15:14

Personally I'd do the Zquests every day on ALL your characters (The combat quest provides faction which you can always change into money somehow - Balth to Zkeys, Kurz into Jade, Lux into Amber).

It's not so fast but you'll get there.

Mindjack · May 10, 2009, 03:16 PM // 15:16

Farm stuff. E.g. ectos.

Sell Gifts of the Traveler and XTH-keys.

People didn't read OP ...
In faction you can do JQ/FA and trade your baltha pts for zkeys and sell them (4k/ea~~)
Try to find a farm, there is the feathers material one in naphui quarters if you have a Mo, or try to do some runs in factions, like shiro HM.
If you just got faction trading will be a little hard, with just access to kaineng (not really a trade city atm) and great temple of balthazar.

just play through the game some more and rewards from quest and seliing drops will get u there eventually.

FengShuiDove · May 10, 2009, 04:41 PM // 16:41

Play the game. Do Vanquishes. Every Vanquish should get you between 4k without getting anything worthwhile. Along the way you'll get elite tomes, golds to sell, maybe some rares that you can sell for even more... if you're not into farming or don't know how just yet playing through the game in HM can make a lot of money if you do it consistently and don't splurge along the way.

englitdaudelin · May 10, 2009, 05:07 PM // 17:07

Vanquishes are nice ways to make steady money...

Also, the vermin outside Senji's (?) are farmable... Leave from Senji and hang a left into the vermin circle.

Once you're into the Kurz/Luxon lands... do the quests that give you kurz/luxon faction, turn those in for amber/jade, sell that.

ID your whites before you sell them... you can make a small profit doing that, since items can increase in value from 1g to over 50g...so you might sell whites for 80-100g instead of 50ish.

Save your pennies.

During holiday weekend, farm the unholy hell out of items like cupcakes and tokens. Sell to other players.

Good luck.

ooorrrrrr

xD
Just jking, their advices are way better, especially isildorbiafra (being sarcastic)

Check Wiki for what Nicholas the Traveler's collecting each week. If it's available in Factions, farm the heck out of it and sell it at whatever insane price people are buying for (or, if he's in Factions too, trade them in for gifts and sell those, since they're more valuable than the sum of what you traded). That's how I got the cash for my Vabbian armor - farmed Juni Berries for a couple hours, earned about 30k.

Do tons of Kurz quests, farm AB/JQ/FA to get faction to trade in for the Amber (don't waste time on challenge mishes; I've done those and the faction earn is really slow). It'll save you money - actually earn you money, really, since you'll get cash/loot from quests and Balth faction from PvP to trade in for Zkeys (4-5k apiece, depending on the length of time since the last set of XTH rewards were released). Unfortunately it's not nearly as easy to get Amber as it used to be... darn faction update.
