Angelic Upstart · Apr 03, 2008, 09:33 AM // 09:33

Back in the day i used to make good money, nowadays i dont farm much at all, have everything i want/need.

I don't farm farm for money, only for holiday stuff. In some way I always have a decent amount of gold in my storage. Vanquishing helps alot.

Queenie · Apr 03, 2008, 10:02 AM // 10:02

I'm getting poorer and lazier these days, GW is getting really boring. ><
When I could be bothered I could make 100k+ in a day. :l
Now I make like...nothing. XD

[edit] I'm not really fussed anyway, I have everything I want anyway.

If I could find a way to make Hard Mode easier for myself (like all the other people on these forums *grumble*) then I'd probably have a lot more money.

I don't keep track of how much I make, it's suitably depressing.

MaDDoG1221 · Apr 03, 2008, 10:05 AM // 10:05

Taken me a month to farm 100K :/

Zamochit · Apr 03, 2008, 10:24 AM // 10:24

Everything I need and then some is already on my account (weapons armours etc).

I dont care about money or farming anymore, although I still do "Elite" missions with my guild for fun (and to try and beat our personal best times) ~ I guess I make around 8-10k an hour when I do 'farm', depending on rare material drops.

N1ghtstalker · Apr 03, 2008, 10:27 AM // 10:27

30k a day i think
could have been more if i sold that armbrace i had but i wanted a tormented shield

Alex the Great · Apr 03, 2008, 10:30 AM // 10:30

13k an hour on my secret farm rofl

i used to make 20k

the Puppeteer · Apr 03, 2008, 10:32 AM // 10:32

hmm - ~0g per day - and not complaining

Malice Black · Apr 03, 2008, 10:40 AM // 10:40

Farming in GW?

That is nearly as tedious as mining in EVE.

I get w/e drops while doing missions/quests. I salvage all drops now, and sell the mats to people buying stacks for their noob juice (consumables)

Enko · Apr 03, 2008, 11:37 AM // 11:37

around 40-150k a day depending if I'm actually working on making money (ie setting up sales on guru auctions, organizing inventory to make trading easier, etc)

only farm on holiday events and now I'm just pushing the rest of my 10 pve characters through the game. used to trade a lot in game but I just find it less of a hassle to trade through websites.

hfff has been fairly decent money. getting around 30k an hour doing that when i run 2 other people and my other account (500g per run) though its extremely boring . ..

Nadasee · Apr 03, 2008, 11:50 AM // 11:50

Now days i get around 10-30k a day if i'm in the mood for some farming and find anything i like to get.
I used to get around 50-70k back in the old days when i had a use for the money. Now they are just stash'd away in storage (882k) waiting to be used...

Not as much fun as it used to be and not really any items left to spend it on once you have the most of the Elite Armor sets ect...

Yeah, I do, for example. And I still can.

The whining in this thread is utterly ridiculous. Why is it that farmers do nothing but complain, ever?

First of all it seems as if you guys think that the only way to make money farming is by finding an extremely rare item and selling it for 100K + n ectos. If that's your strategy then no, you wont make much cash, as hardly any items are worth much. What you should be doing is hardmode farming any area, collecting EVERYTHING that drops, and merchanting it. If your inventory is full, salvage and sell materials. The guy who complained about UW trips costing 1K, for instance, would find that the white/blue drops and gold drops offsets the cost of entrance, so any ectos are pure profit, and in places like CoF materials will net you several K per run.

Second of all it's annoying when farmers try to sound like they're poor. If people complain that they can not make money, it is implied they've got something to spend it on. Which simply isn't the case, now is it. Money in guild wars is for either showing off, or for buying vanity items.

Finally it sounds like you're all "speed blind". If making 10K an hour isn't enough to be worth your while, then that's basically just another way of saying that you've already got too much money.

i make bout 3-4k/day.. From quests and miss

Squishy ftw · Apr 03, 2008, 01:46 PM // 13:46

10-20k a day if I just play normally(no farming).

Willow O Whisper · Apr 03, 2008, 01:58 PM // 13:58

5-7k a day used to make 30k a day back before ls set in....

Kusandaa · Apr 03, 2008, 01:59 PM // 13:59

Depends if I feel like farming or not... these days I haven't been farming as much so I make around 5-10k/day. But if I feel like farming, can go around 20k-100k. I'd need to farm more

And yes, I actually enjoy solo farming. Mindless killing ftw.

Ouchie · Apr 03, 2008, 02:04 PM // 14:04

Depends on what I do

can be 10K-250K a week

either way I spend as fast as I make now-a-days

Lyphen · Apr 03, 2008, 02:29 PM // 14:29

I don't farm platinum. I have all the gear I want, and I'm not a title seeker, so I don't need to fund signets of capture or lockpicks.
