Curse

I own all the campaigns and the trilogy so I could make any character. I only have one thats level 20 and has a difficult time running Dungeons he is a D/MO. I spent all my money on lock picks I only had 5k to begin with. I was thinking of making an A/R in factions just because its easy to get money and EXP. and I realy need the money to get new armor for the main and new skills for the heros so i can have better luck. but I am not sure which campaign is the "money making" one..... Suggestions any one?

EotN raptors is a steady stream of money with an E/A or A/E farmer.

GO!

You've been registered here since april 2008, and it's fairly safe to assume you've been playing since at least april 2008. Having only 1 lvl20 character isn't a whole lot. For now just create some random characters in random campaigns and try to figure out which professions suits you best.

For farming, as Stealth pointed out, making an assasin is currently probably the best choice for making money, for other suggestions check either the pvxwiki farming builds or the farming forum here.

Also don't spend money on lockpicks for now. I guess your retention rate isn't very high, so it's most likely wasted money.

I've found that the easiest way to make money is to not spend it. Cash is pretty easy to come by, and to balance that there are a lot of gold sinks in the game which can eat through a character's wallet very quickly.

Once you've checked out the farming section of the forums and worked out where some of the better money making spots are, make a list of all the things you want for your characters and prioritise them in order of need. Avoid unnecessary expenditures and go down the list from top to bottom, starting with the most needed.

You hate people and guilds and yet play a mmo?(ps, one of the m's is Multiplayer) You're more socially retarded than I am.

But on topic, one way you could have more money is to do less foruming and more play.

I dont hate people, just the people who try to sound better then you and feel they have to constently spam you looking to be in your group ectra. and as for guilds I played in guilds on wow and it was ok, but not as fun, the one on GW are all like "you have to be this level, and have this or have that faction....."

Have become !?!?! there were always rude and always will be rude

Easiest way to make money is simply playing the game, if not perma sin the way to go, even I'm learning the builts and places to farm with them

sounds more like you should stop trying to make money quickly and learn the game. play through all campaigns in nm and beat each one. by doing primary quest chains and all missions, skills will come through rewards and additional skill points earned by gaining experience. Only then, concentrate on "making money" in whatever manner you deem appropriate based on your knowledge of the game learned through experience. in time, you will learn what works where and how, and which things to do to maximize your profit while minimizing time and effort spent at obtaining that profit. at first, i thought this was a qq thread cuz you just spent uber on fow armor or something, but complaining that your broke because you don't understand the game enough to know where/how to make (even a little = >5k) money will get you no love. a game as complex as this one, in terms of plots/storylines, quests and objectives, takes more than just asking on a forum how to do what others have spent year(s) learning.

Good luck on future GW endevours...

Don't give me that. It's just some bullshit term Anet made up to sound flashy and edge out the competition. You can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a swine.

I agree! Go with Assassin, it's good for farming just about anywhere.

By the way, you can get skills for your heroes for free, if you get Balthazar faction.

I'm kinda surprised no one has mentioned 55 monk. Oh well, if you like Dervish, hopefully you would like Assassin too

I guess people are being rude because your question has been asked....... Oh, I don't know how many times, since 3 and a half years ago since Guild Wars came out :P

Do a quick search, if it doesn't work, try on google, like this:
