Well i get easy faction,money and EXP.

Once you ran to all the places, everyone should die, (if you’re in a party) and spawn at the res spot. That should take you right next to Scoutmaster Arne unless you got too close to the other spawn location.(Note: Other spawn loactions the bridge, don’t get near it) Get the quest from him and accept the 2k EXP, 400 faction, and 150 gold.

The 150 g keeps on stacking (And if you trade in amber you get more cash)
Just by this i've got 2 sets of 15k dyed black !!

it's easy to make money in this game. i spent about 2 weeks farming tengu in riverside province up until it got nerfed. in them days a sup vig got you about 80k and monks sups got about 70k. in one day 3 runes got me over 200k. i would say i made several million in those 2 weeks.

even just vermin farming for a few hours the other night i made 30k. thanks to 2 black dye drops.

i was online when the market crashed a long time ago. i bought velum and damask and steel ingots and other rare materials and also about 30 sup runes. i spent about 500k at the merchant and rune trader in a short space of time. i can't even guess how much profit i made off that but i would guess at about 25 mill.

buying and selling weapons is my thing now. i buy high req weapons with good mods for cheap, salvage the mods and sell them on for a profit. i bough an axe for 1k and salvaged a 20/20 sundering. 27k profit.
weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Anyone can make gold its a online game you create a character you kill things they drop gold or items, rinse repeat.

Just depends how obsessed you are btw i made over a million but it got so boring the only motivation was to see how many ectos could collect.

The pre view event i have had more fun with this game than i ever did farming. It reminded me the first time i played prophercies enjoying the game for what it is a bit of fun.

I played about 1,500 hours and im not rly suprised ppl have so much money... its vry easy to farm it all.. i farmed up to about 1000k in approx 2 months if not less.. spent 500k on my guild about 150k on my warriors armor (sup vigor + super absorp wen it was 40k)... i had just goten into farming and basicaly it was all i done.. just save up i dont agree with ebaying money and i do sumtimes get nice drops which speeds up the process vry much.. my best drop sold for 100k + ( 2 perfect drops @ that price ) and a sword sundering @ 90k wen they wer still selling at 100k

Ps. i have about 2 - 3 mill xp on 1 of my chars.. shows how much i used to farm lol

To the opp: I have been playing for about nine months now. with a total hours at about 1700.

At this moment i have full fissure armor for my monk. and am a few ecto and shards away from getting fissure armor for my warrior.

To be honest with you i am always really puzzled when people say that they have only made like 60k or less in 12 or some odd months playing this game.. because you know for a fact they are lying. or only pvp players ( witch is not a bad thing in the least)

I myself have never even thought of ebay.. because if you fellas remember the good old contra days.. it stoped being a fun game to play when you had all the lives you needed.. for me its the same concept here.

But in playing this game within the first month i had over 20k

I did not farm in the slightest.

I just did missions and got some rune drops that had been worth money. mostly shiver peak missions and stuff.

Now back to me calling anyone who says they have never earned more than 60k or so in their entire carrier of playing this game.

They literally would have to get all collectors armor and weapons and throw every drop they got into the trash. in order to achieve this. and even then they would acumulate 60k in just coin drops in an 8 man party through the missions.

So maybee they have never had 60k at any one given point in time.. but i assure you that they have had much more "upwards of 1mill" in coins flow through their hands withought even realizing it.

and if you like you can search my name on here. you will find a few items that i have purchased at the asking price of the seller (even though it was insanly low) and made some quick cash.

Like for instance i purchased a req 8 (i think) 14^50 max brute sword. i had purchased it for i think 15k or less

i then turned around and sold it for a little over 80k

I also farm uw with a duo partner. it is one of my favorite things to do in this game. and i can waste pretty much a whole night there if i really wanted to. all and all on a good night i can net about 6 ecto or more.

and whats 6x6? thats right its........ 36( i think )

so thats a quick 36k in one night.. and that is not even counting the drops you get that sell to the merchant for like 40 gold apeice.. 40x20= some cool number upwards of 1k ..

so all and all yes i am a millionare in this game. actually im prolly a multi millionare.. but in my storage in pure coin all i have is 40k

Now i hope that helps you understand that. not everyone with money ebays it..

and for the future. you could have found your answer under the countless other ( How can i get money / OMG EBAYERS EVERYWHERE / Where can i get 1337 rich? / I need to know how to make money) threads...

hope this makes sence and all. it prolly dosent. if it dosent i dont really care..

Chars get lucky drops... they can make big money
Chars buy low sell high .. they can make big money
Time played and areas farmed ... they can make big money

Time, Patience, a watchfull eye, a little business acumen ... its not hard to make money IF thats what you want to do.

Something that doesnt get mentioned, is ONE of the ways you can tell how much money IS being injected into the GW economy via e-bay. Reading the feedback for these sellers.... and in some cases these sellers have 1000's!!!! of +feedbacks.

OK so maybe they dont just sell GW gold I dont know but it does help get ya head round just how many buy gold this way.

This is my personal experince in guildwars money making from the start which started in 02-15-06.

Started off dirt poor stuck in the presearing thinking to myself, i know nothing about this game. Let me search the internet found gameamp.com, then found this website. After reading about the game first, then i started to play better.

Made a Warrior since most of the runners were all warriors, made around 200k in around the first month of playing the missions and running people to the easy spots.

Then i got to droks and noticed all the people selling parchment. So i went online and read what made parchment. Bought all the wood i could get my hands on, made parchment and made around 150k during the first week of doing that.

After that i took my warrior and starting farming the trolls outside droks to get more wood to make parchment. After getting a fellblade or 2 as drops, i asked around what are these worth. sold the first one for 50k and the second for 30k. Then a light switch went off in my head. People love gold items, where can i get gold items???

Then i started to chest run ice floe, and other shiverpeak chests, because people in town were selling the keys cheap (thanks bot farmers) After getting a couple of good sword mods and axe mods i made around 500k total in my first 2 months after spending it on 15k armor and what not.

Then this new game called Factions was coming out. I bought it the first day it came out. Then i thought to myself.... gee what would make me alot of money here... materials for the new armors that people wanted. So i jumped to all the missions spots in the desert and ring of fire area, saying WTB tanned hides, and cloth will buy all you have pm offer.

After buying a ton of tanned hides and cloth for around 12g each , i went to droks and sold them for around 26-27g each making around another 200k in 3 days of doing that.

Then after making cash there in propchies, travel to the new land of canthna and noticed that rune trader was out of all the runes for the new classes. Also there was like 8-12 people just standing at the trader selling runes for riduclous prices. Then i thought to myself... hmmm how are they getting those runes??

After standing at the trader and clicking it over and over really fast i noticed that when it flashed, something new was added (i.e. new rit or sin rune that was privosly sold out) bought a sup dagger rune for like 4k and sold it for 40k to the guy saying WTB sup dagger 40k So i called it rune snipping and did that for 2 weeks making around 400k doing that.

After getting bored with money did more missions in factions untill i got to the kurzick side where i opened a chest and this gothic axe dropped. I was a req 9 15^50 and i thought it looked so cool. still have that axe to this day.

This new axe was so appealing and since no one was selling it, i firgure i could get a ton of money for it. That began the chest running era of my guildwars life. I heard that people that owned kurzick towns got keys for cheap, so i joined LUST back in the day. Then after buying some keys and looking for some spots to run i found melandurs hope.

If you run the 4 spots and each one of your party got the spots and died you got money, faction, xp, and chests along the way. Taught this to my guild and was born the FFing era of faction farming Melandurs hope.

So FFing there and chesting at the same time got a ton of gold drops while getting some xp and faction towards my guild holding house zu heltzer. Once i got my first gothic dual axe rq 8 15^50 i about crapped my pants. I got a price check at 100k +65 ectos for it. Hmmmm with all these good items here i can make a ton of cash....

So i started chest running everything, raisu palace, melandurs hope, napiu for all those lovely gold items that people were paying a ton for.

After 3 months of chest running i now have 1.2 million in storage. 250 of each material, except 167 ob shards, 35 rubies, 65 sapphires, 22 monster claws, 22 D Steel, and 2 monster fangs. Have made around 8-9 million chest running, and spent over 3.5 million on keys. The saying is true it takes money to make money.



So after all that i have done to make money, i never farmed the elite missions, never did underworld 55hp monk farming, never did tombs. Just pure smarts with the market and what is hot. Getting those things to people when they want them ( parchment, runes, gold items ). The key is to go where the money is. If a sephis axe is going for over 100 ectos find where to get one. If a rune is selling for 40k find out where to get it. No one is more lucky then the next guy. They have the same chance of getting something just as you do. Some are just smarter then others :P

And on the last note here are some predictions of what is going to make money in the near future.

1. Dervish and Paragon runes
2. Dervish and Paragon materials (tanned hides, iron, and other rare materials)
3. New greens in Nightfall will demand a high price.
4. Gold spears and scthyes with energy and 15^50 low req items
5. So in detail anything having to do with Nightfall right now will earn you a ton of cash, so stock pile up those materials, get ready to run those chests in nightfall, and stay close to the rune trader to buy those new runes.

I think this is a trader reset... in Kainenge Center once, the rare material trader was selling ectos for 500 gold and buying for 20k... unfortunatly by the time I got to the trader, it was too late.

Theres tons of ways to make money quickly...buying and selling black dye is the easiest to do...find anyone selling it for under 9k...ive found most people asking 9 will take 7.5-8k...buy as many as you can for that price...I usually stock up with 5...5x8=40k...so you spend 40k

Spam sell for 9k...youll sell them quickly in LA...hit up Ascalon...thats a quick 5k in profit once you sell what you bought...re-invest in more...and repeat...takes time but when you can push 20-50black dyes a day...you're making good change...

and a troll for 10k and sold it for 20

a quick way to make lots of money without worrying about the value of weapons is just material trading.

buy low (5-7g each for materials) and selling high (10g-15g) and those are just common crafting materials.

rare materials are even better, find out how to make the ones people want (parchment in droks for '55' armor) and sell that, its a steady market, up and down at times. just play it smart, anything over 100k in storage is a good amount, and eventually you will have more and more money aslong as you spend it wisely.
