Of course, that was actually playing the game, quests and all. Oh yeah, and working full time, playing roughly 2-3 hours each day on average. Not that hard.

well aren't you a lucky bastard O.O i hardly got anything playing thru prophecies... but in factions the quest and mission rewards make up for it.

Well, took him out with a few guildies last night and "showed him the ropes" so to speak

Even stumped up for a full set of Canthan armour from Kaineng, he was good fun to play with and realised that you don't need gold and plats if you play with nice people (at least I hope he did, heh)

but yeah, did a few missions out of kaineng and the Marketplace, then jumped him over to tyria and blitzed through from ascalon to yak's bend in a three hour mashing session and he went from not really enjoying the game to really liking it... i figured prophecies missions were best to get going in as they are mostly self explanatory and, although Assasin, he can learn some free skills for himself (if i remember correctly, he was A/Mo *Shudder*)

Nah, like I said, no real luck involved. The luckiest thing I had happen was getting a black dye in pre-searing, which funded my first few sets of armor (not realizing it's actually better to wait till droks before buying another set). Other than that, I just did every quest there was. I'm pretty sure if they finally add some quest completing title, my necro would have every Prophecies one (except for maybe a handful of secondary early skill quests).

My wife was the lucky one - managed to find 2 Superior Vigors in our early travels, back when they were 50k+. Needless to say, she got her first set of 15k a couple of weeks before I did.

hehe luck isn't all about big high-price items... luck can also be getting lots of vendor stuff and gold coin drops vs no drop at all

What your in game name? I can spare you some money as well as give you some pointers.

Edit: ahh you beat me to it...

Well, add me to your friends list though we can play together anyways. Having my wn assasin, I can show you the assassin's way of making big bucks.

Infact, just so no retards bother you I'll give you my zodiac daggers. To lazy to sell them anyways. Your Zodies will be worth more than their 15k armor.

I'll catch you on on wednesday at the earliest.
