Hey everyone! This is my first post!

Well i was wondering what was the best way to get gold after finishing Prophecies.

kazi_saki · Sep 20, 2008, 09:43 AM // 09:43

When I just finished proph, which was like 2 months ago, I sold white and black dyes that I found. Also try selling runes/insignias to people. I can't remember how else I got money w/out farming. Try also selling Zkeys and lockpicks

. Hope whatever little knowledge I know helps

If you want LOTS of money you need to farm. ^ said selling insignias and dyes, but i doubt you can sell those that easily except for the dyes. For farming you can do 55 monk and browse for some other builds, these can nearly all be found on PvXwiki. It even has an option to only show prophecies only builds.

Now you have access to hard mode and can start vanquishing. That means clearing areas of all enemies. You`ll get paid 5 gold for each kill, plus the nice drops, since you`re in hard mode.

id all your whites. its a small difference but it helps.

the_jos · Sep 20, 2008, 04:44 PM // 16:44

Determine how much gold you need for your next goals. Then determine your income. See how much time it would take you to get what you want.
Too long? Are you sure you have realistic goals?

Sure, farming is an option, but I would not reccomend it.

qft thanks for helping

Nigioh · Sep 20, 2008, 10:55 PM // 22:55

Well thanks for the response. So selling stuff from drops is the go.

Hanging Man · Sep 20, 2008, 11:37 PM // 23:37

well if you plan on farming first what type of char do you have?
warrior ele necro monk ranger or mes?
this will narrow down your choices for being able to do some, not all but some farming techniques

like whoever said above, sorry for not quoting, determine the amount of gold you want to have
then start finding ways to get it
pvxwiki.com [i think thats right]
is a great website with a ton of builds to get you going
vanquishing areas does help, but it gets little difficult specially where you can only have 4 people teams

Evil_Necro · Sep 22, 2008, 03:08 AM // 03:08

depends, if you want like, 50k rich, then yes, sell everything from the drops and id them beforehand.

Now, if you are talking 100k+ rich, then you are talking about farming+the method above.

If you are talking abt 500k+ rich, then we are talking about luckyness taking part (drop wise, rago flame staffs, 15^50 nice skins, etc) and time.

thats all.. >_>

I would suggest registering with the Xunlai House on the www.guildwars.com site. Keys go for a decent price, and you get a certain amount of reward points depending on how well you predict. You don't need to do anything outside registering, guessing, then picking up your points around the 1st or 2nd week of the following month.

Unlocked chest running in Nightfall works quite nice. Hard mode Wurm farming is also a nice way to get drops while leveling your LB/SS titles.

Nigioh · Sep 22, 2008, 11:56 AM // 11:56

Thanks for the advice evrybody!

Depending on which main your character is - you might try Droks running - it can be a personal challenge too.

We had several guildies who joined - got to Yaks then bought runs to Droks for leet armour, so there's still a market (especially if you're in Europe).

Just don't be that sad person stood in Ascalon trying to sell runs to Piken for 250g or to Borlis Pass from Yaks for 250g.
