Curse

I just play the game, farm for my titles, run a few dungeons when I am bored. I decided 2 days ago to get a dread mask, and with only 10K in the bank, I sold some stuff real quick and bought it yesterday. Money can easily be made in the game.

Apperently you can make money by pm guru people who have retired/ take a break from gw. This is what I got in my inbox

Yes, Herb we know...and drool

OT: Am I effective? I think so. While nowhere near the league of our beloved money bags above ^^ I'm quite...comfy

I have all the weapons/armor etc I want, some very pretty. I have the freedom to chuck cash at my guildies when they need it or see something they just gotta have. I can give the occasional nice new player a mini and weapon or whatever to get em started, or hold a mini trivia give away in a town when I get bored. Mostly, I play and have fun...I call that effective.

200k an hour on a REALY good day.
Elite tome farming XD thats where its at!

If I can sell them of course.......

Fluffiliscious · Nov 27, 2007, 08:05 PM // 20:05

I've played for about 7 months and I really suck at making and holding on to my money. Of course, I've mainly just focused on playing through the storylines and not so much on farming to make some cash. Maybe once I get tired of the story I'll start in on that.....or maybe not...

Olim Chill · Nov 27, 2007, 08:05 PM // 20:05

I can always manage to get the funds I need, in a reasonable amount of time, without big-league farming. The game will be conducive if you're able to remain focused on your goal.

2000 hours +.Never payed much attention to making money,finisched 3 char 2 in prophecies one in factions,never bought any 15k armor(never had any intrest, nore did i see why id waste my time on it, i prefer the looks of basic sets anyway...)I used to have fun farming for a awhile got a few K's.I sold a few gold/green items back in the day,bought a few,but selling seemed timewasting.Think max i got in storage was 30k something, just hunted/farmed for what i needed and played the game, i rarely bought anything from trading, since you can get equal items of collectors.After finishing a char I mostly started playing PVP might have something to do with it.

Painbringer · Nov 27, 2007, 08:56 PM // 20:56

Following the story line and doing the dungeons when I get to them. This has given me some good cash. Just bought my Elite Ritualist Norn armor. Took more time earning points then getting the money for the set.

Steboy93 · Nov 27, 2007, 09:00 PM // 21:00

I'm pretty effective imo. Been playing for just over 1000hrs and made quite a few mill+a load of ecto, got my main all the armour i'll ever want and got a couple of nice golds

anonymous · Nov 27, 2007, 09:35 PM // 21:35

Time played: 29 months
Money: 62k, 2 sets of 15k armor and random stuff worth about 100k
How: Birthday minipets, occasional halls wins, playing the campaign normally and about 3 days of farming

If you can't tell I barely PvE

ravensong · Nov 27, 2007, 09:40 PM // 21:40

Seraphic Divinity · Nov 27, 2007, 09:42 PM // 21:42

i can see that Herb

Playing 27 months, 11 sets fow, some minis,some tormented,some req 8s,some ectos, couple millions. Not a big of a collector, all i like is to wear some thing shiny and use in GvG or HA. Making money is fun to me, power trading is my way to do it.my best trade prolly from the 2nd Ghostly Hero in GW i sold, thats when my storage started to shine

Your Lucky I Heal · Nov 27, 2007, 11:04 PM // 23:04

me:
23 monthes
600k
9 sets of 15k armor (1 dervish,2 warrior,1 rit,3 monk, 2 ranger)
i just spend money on armor,skills, and weapons.
i make money by helping people in the guild and sell all my worthless drops, i never buy anything else basically. sometimes my friends call me cheap

Croco Clouds · Nov 27, 2007, 11:38 PM // 23:38

600K + 35 ectos + Tormented sword + Tormented shield in the past 12 months

Dev121 · Nov 27, 2007, 11:59 PM // 23:59

Since Day 2 Of Release:
Running Primarly
Made too much to count back then
Blown it all now but I have enough to make sure I dont have to worry

.

What I have to show for it?

Nothing. I have 4 perfect req 8 old school items on my warrior, thats it. I only still have them because there custimized. Gold was never a factor of my game just needed enough plus I enjoyed running and being able to do it at a high price helped.

How do I make money now?

I dont. I enjoy the game more not having to worry about stuff but I do fancy taking up the running and rushing stuff again but the prices that have dropped so much in the last year and can be seen here on guru for costs such as a Droks Run for 1k. I wouldnt waste my time to be quite honest I'd rather do it free.

FoW:1 Set. Deleted. Too much of a HEY LOOK AT ME SYMBOL to be honest (no offence to anyone who is getting or has FoW just my opinion)
15K: About 70 sets? Most deleted but hey its fun getting them in the first place.

w00t.

Now hand me a totem axe so I can farm trolls for 1k/hour.

Azeren Wrathe · Nov 28, 2007, 01:15 AM // 01:15

70 hours of play on my main and ive got a total fo 33k lol :P (just played through the NF campaign, never specifically farming)
i want my primevil 15k gear but i really cant seem to make too much money so i guess i gota learn how to solo farm *sigh* anywho atm im trying to farm "the deathbringer" scythes, from what ive heard they are worth a bit and ive already found 1.

Sha Noran · Nov 28, 2007, 01:28 AM // 01:28

I played an unrealistic amount of hours and, fittingly, made an unrealistic amount of money. If there were a list, I would be just under the power traders (i.e. Herb) and extreme solo power players (i.e. Racthoh).

In short, I have more money than I will ever find real use for.
