How do u get gold fast? - Guild Wars Forums

Ork Pride · May 23, 2005, 10:32 PM // 22:32

I hardly get gold or valuable items do you?

The IOU · May 23, 2005, 10:33 PM // 22:33

I get them all the time.

Ork Pride · May 23, 2005, 10:34 PM // 22:34

what creatures do you kill?

static deathbringer · May 24, 2005, 12:06 AM // 00:06

it all depends on a few things, what creatures your killing, what type of items they drop, and how easy it is to farm them,my W/MO usually hunts either riverside province or the first part of the sanctum cay mission and i make around 2k or more if im lucky in under 30 min, just dont salvage anything unless your sure it will give u a rare craft material, also make sure to identify all items, even if theyre wgite, some white items can net u 100+ gold some only 20, but its worth it to use the kit on everything thing since they only cost u like 100 gold, and most items u get in the later missionsare worth at least 30+

I honestly don't see why people have trouble getting money. I made 7k in a day just going through the missions and quests in Kryta. Just sell everything you come across that won't sell to the public. Also, you could try selling crafting materials. Or farm like everyone else does.

Eclair · May 24, 2005, 01:02 AM // 01:02

Mooooooooooooooooooooooo....go farm =)

Usually you need a x/mo to farm effectively, but I'm sure there's other unique ways to do it too.

$hade. · May 24, 2005, 01:52 AM // 01:52

It all depends on waht items you get. I've gotten 2 yellow rare's in the same mision before+a purple.

I've found necro secondary (high blood) to be more useful when solo farming. I play monk second when grouping.

Eclair · May 24, 2005, 02:00 AM // 02:00

Monk mostly for the smiting, its effecient to kill 9+ level 20 enemies at the same time =)

Aaaaagh · May 24, 2005, 02:46 AM // 02:46

Level has alot to do with making money too, what level are you? Once you get to the Kryta area and past lvl 10 you start to make gobs more cash.

Roken · May 24, 2005, 03:04 AM // 03:04

You can get gold fast by playing at my player ran "casino". I just won 2.3k off a girl.

abinning · May 24, 2005, 03:41 AM // 03:41

Dravic Badmoon · May 24, 2005, 04:54 AM // 04:54

oh by the way Areanet is aware of the casinos, and have made a post that anyone caught scamming through the use of a casino, through trade, or advertising hacks/cheats, will be banned from the game and accounts deleted. This comes from a post by Gaile from another forum.

Kaeru · May 24, 2005, 04:57 AM // 04:57

Trick is to collect enemies in a large group and then strike at them all in the same time.
Like elementalist can attract a large group of highlvl weak monsters and then strike at them.

Wrath of m0o · May 24, 2005, 04:59 AM // 04:59

after i got level 20, all i get is gold for drops....is this just me ? or is it cause i ate the brown acid ?

=HT=E5Destroyer · May 25, 2005, 02:02 PM // 14:02

has found a way to make 1k every 6 minutes give or take a minute in the dunes of dispair..lol

Ripper · May 25, 2005, 02:05 PM // 14:05

If you use an ID kit on basic items thier value is usually more than an item that has not been id'ed. For example, A merchant was paying 18gp for a longbow until I id'ed it. Once id'ed the merchange payed 37.

ID all your drops.

Tormunda · May 25, 2005, 02:12 PM // 14:12

It happens.
My first character never had a single gold item. The only time one dropped for her was in the Dragon's lair and we zoned before I could pick it up - lol!
That character has basically finished all the game - not ONE gold item.

My second character is totally opposite. Even on an easy Lion's Arch area mission I got 3 GOLD items. Superior runes in them too! In 1 mission mind you!!!!

So it seems totally random to the points whereby a whole players gaming experience with a character can go without a single gold-rare! But someone else is swamped with the things!

*&^^ Happens!!

Kaiser William · May 25, 2005, 03:42 PM // 15:42

Most of the gold that you pick up does not make your money. Since you are splitting the gold between your party members. The best way to get money is to go out in the hardest area and with a full party of henchmen. Grab the gold that that drops and pick up every item. If the item needs identifying, identify it. it will be worth much more than it was. Also, if you find "Highly Salvageable" items, make sure you use and "Expert Salvage Kit". Sometimesyou will get lots of crafting item or, runes.
