Default Money?

So I have recently accidentally deleted my primary character, a dervish, thinking that I don't need her anymore. Only about 2 weeks later did I realize that she was my primary source of income. My main character now is a Ranger and have been looking for someway to make money. I currently own Prophecies, Nightfall, and GWEN and really enjoy running but haven not been able to find a good place to run. I can't run Droks cause of Factions so I'm asking: What is a good way to make money with a Ranger? Farming? Running? I'm not asking for a certain build (would appreciate it ) but more of an Idea. Can anybody help?

Edit: I have created a Monk too now.

Well, running isn't that big of a source of income anymore... Especially since it pretty much just exists in prophecies ;-)

Also:PvX Wiki-->General Farming Builds

Rangers arent that effictive tbh. Fun, but not too effective.

Id consider remaking ur derv for income if thats wat ur looking for, or a monk or ele coz all three are pretty gud in terms of farming.

Go to Bergen hot springs northwest of Lion's arch and farm tengu's They drop feathers and feathered caromi scalps, that you can salvage for feathers - 10 feathers you can sell for about 350 - 450 each bunch, and you should have about 150 feathers after an hour of active farming.

You have to avoid the skeleton archers right outside, then just continue north.

It is a great way to familiarize yourself with ranger skills and get a bit wiser on what skills to bring. There are groups of 4 tengu's, 2 warriors, 1 mesmer and 1 ranger. They are quite weak but you must prepare well or you will die. I suggest a spike build with strong self heal.

This. A ranger can run Spirit Spammer as well (not as good as a Rit with Spawning power, of course, but Expertise does help a LOT with the cost of Rit spirits)

I've been running R/Rt Splinter Weapon/Barrage in normal mode PvE but have progressed to Hard Mode and find that build not particularly effective. Any build advice for a R/Rt SS?
