I am not shocked, as I am too accustomed to that fact.

I make around 3-5k per hour running around the Crystal Desert, depending on demand.

Just what I pick up now, don't farm any more.

Got enough gold for GW:EN so not worried

Ok, so I'm gonna be one of those whiny jerks who says, "Well it must be nice to do UW, but America never has favor when I'm on and I only PvE so don't tell me to PvP to win favor back....blah, blah, blah."

Ok, that part is done so realistically I enjoy Tombs runs with BP and sometimes doing stuff in Sorrows Furnace. I'm trying to get through Factions now and look forward to play the Deep and Urgoz, but I don't know much about those. I've read there are a bunch of elitest snobs in there.

So I probably make 2-3K/hr on a Tombs run if I don't get any good greens or golds. If I do then it will be anywhere from 5-20K/hr. And as stated before selling the golds/greens is a horribly painstaking process sometimes.

Averages out to about 200g an hour? Last time I checked AB and FA doesn't give gold, so the only gold I get is when I vanquish once a week

I have been testing a new farming build, and so far I've been making around 90k an hour, for the last 7-8 hours that I've done it. I just need to perfect my build, and it'll be even faster All I'll say, is that the place is weird, and the build is weirder.

Granted, no one area will ever just be farmed by one person but if people kept the place/build too themselves then farming might still be worth bothering with. As it stands now, post a decent farming area and watch it get slowly nerfed or just so over farmed that the drops are worth nothing.

About 50k/week. Most I even had on my account was 111k. I do art commissions and ferry for tips. I could always use more, but it takes it to make it sometimes.

Aside from that, missions and vanquishing (and the treasure in NF) are all fairly profitable for me. Tomes, green and gold drops, lots of xp.

And know what? I love the game. Not having all the money I need to go and max out my titles right away is actually kinda fun, because it gives me something to look forward to.

Can't wait for GW:EN.

Can average about 50 to 100k an hour depending on luck...Have made less than that in hour but have also made more than that in an hour...I have found that you can also make alot of money about 30 to 50k just by taking toons thorugh any campaign...did this with nightfall and 9 out od 10 characters later about 250k or so...not to bad...Titan Farming is still probably the fastest and most profitable way to farm now days...

I bought 75 lockpicks for 1,250 a piece 3 weeks ago. Since then I've done nothing but vanquishing, opening all chests I run into. Today, I have 3 lockpicks left (30% chance to retain), the same money back in my storage and a few elite tomes I can't be bothered to go sell because it takes too much time. (Request: tome trader!) I saved some gear for personal use and I probably increased some of the stacks in my materials storage as well.

Bottom line, I made 3 lockpicks, some gear and 3 elite tomes in 3 weeks. I'm not getting rich fast.

Yeah, I don't need more than I got stocked away so I don't farm much. I don't need the expensive items - just need lots of skills and pretty armor.

10 - 15K an hour, would probably be alot more if I stopped giving away all my dead swords and sephis axes that drop there... I just have NO patience to spam WTS for hours on end.

I mainly farm based on what I want/need weapon wise, the money is a bonus. So if I want a Celestial sword I will solo Naphui and vermin tilll i get the one i want. Right now I am after a good scythe for my derv, so it's NF farming all the way!!!

I used to make around 100-150k/ week but since the introduction of HM i don't farm a lot, since I put more effort on titles like legendary guardian and vanquisher.
Elite tomes farming (especially from monk and ritualist bosses) seems to be a really steady source of income since you can sell them really fast for an average of 10-12k each.
