Curse

Ima Hob0 · Aug 29, 2006, 12:24 AM // 00:24

I feel kinda pathetic doing this, but I need help. I really need to make some money, but dont know effective ways to do it. I can go as a W/Any, Mo/Any, and R/Any. Warrior is my best character, Monk second best, and Ranger third best. They are all LvL 20, but the monk and ranger havent been too far in Cantha or Tyria. The warrior has been practically everywhere on both maps, except for most Kurzick places. So please help me, i need ideas on how to make some money. So far my main ways of making money have been: Etting farming, and troll farming. Neither are slow, but tedious and repetitive. Also, please dont say "Buy low, sell high," because that requires having money to start with; And i have tried many solo farming builds:Sskai,Arrahhsh Mountainclub,and others that have ended in failure.Please help me, and please dont flame this. Please just put only helpful posts. Also, I dont mind criticism.

farming is in its nature repetetive, but how about fow spiders? ghial? I think you can acually make money running elonas also

Zecarn · Aug 29, 2006, 01:13 AM // 01:13

lets see....since u hav a W, Mo, and a R...lets start with what u can do with ur W.

Griffon farming, right outside of Destinys Gorge.
Use: riptose, heal sig, deadly riptose, glads def, endure pain, dolyak, bonnetties, sprint.

Hydra farming, outside Augary Rock.-USE SEARCH BUTTON- for the build

Sand Wurms--same as griffon build, same place as griffons

Fire Islands--spiders, even those hydras there.

Xueko--boss farm(outside of maatu keep)

these r just 4 places were u COULD start.

Now for ur Monk:
THE DEEP!
FoW
UW
UW(2 man)
Urgoz
best places to make som cash.

Ranger:
my rangers MAIN farming areas r:
Pongmei vally
urgoz
FoW Solo
B/P-tomes-FoW
UW trapper group
The Deep(2 man, work still in progress,still tweaking the builds, harder than hell)

but still, ranger seem to be MORE suited for farming than any other class
but then again..maybe i just like em too much

Ima Hob0 · Aug 29, 2006, 04:21 AM // 04:21

Yeah, im really not a fan of running people. I find it boring and long.

As for Zecarn......

Now for ur monk:THE DEEP

what do u mean? just joining a group as a monk? or what? also, thks, this gives me lots of ideas. thks for helping. also, if anyone has any other ideas still, please post

As previously stated, farming is boring after a while, but if you want lots of money, farming is the only reliable way to get it.

Try getting yourself to Temple of Ages with your Monk, and playing a 55 Mo/W in a duo Monk/Necro Underworld farming team.

There are so many scammer solo farming monks that if you can do the duo runs well and totally honestly you will soon have a whole contact list of necros who will be happy to regularly farm with you.

Y.T. · Aug 29, 2006, 08:25 PM // 20:25

well if u need some money to start with u can try vermin farm with wammo, then u can farm bosses with touch ran (there was an excellent thread about green farming with touch ran, use search), then u'll be able to *buy low sell high* if u think camping in towns for few hrs will work for u

lyra_song · Aug 29, 2006, 08:45 PM // 20:45

Look up the 600hp or Spiritbond monk builds. Very cheap and profitable, imo.

Zakarr · Aug 29, 2006, 08:46 PM // 20:46

Two vermin runs until zoning back to Senji's Corner will give you about 3.5k every 14 minutes. Selling stuff to merchant and salvaged materials included. Maybe someone is faster but that is still pretty fast way to get money.

Timmy Shinobi · Aug 29, 2006, 08:56 PM // 20:56

Have you tried dual uw runs? Me it averages me 7k-10k in one run! (3-4 ectos in one run) if im lucky.

Farming is a very boring and repetitive process , you just gotta stick with it and you'll reap the rewards for your hard work.

Lately ive just been doing farming in the desert. Ive gotten 4 Bleached Shells and 41 Griffin Wings. I heard Bleached Shells were 1k each, and Griffin Wings were 50g each, but apparently no one wanted to buy mine. But, whatever. Ive been thinking of doing some runs, but im not sure. I cant do Droks run, and i was thinking desert, but that will take awhile to perfect it. *Shrugs*

Ima Hob0 · Aug 30, 2006, 04:30 AM // 04:30

i would love to fame farm, and maybe get a crystalline or dwarven axe, but i cant get ANY good groups, and i have like 6 fame right now. Thats just my luck

Because bspike is so much more respectable than IWAY

To the OP, if you have a monk go 55 or spirit bond trolls for a few weeks. You'll stack up some nice cash that way.

Ima Hob0 · Sep 01, 2006, 10:55 PM // 22:55

Any more ideas? Ive been trying this IDS farming build for rangers i made up, but i have a question. Do the Ice imps oustide Grotto drops IDS's? Ive killed more then 100, and i havent gotten one. The anti-farming code hasn't appeared, so i dont think its that. So does anyone know if they do drop IDS's outside Grotto?

NOTE: I'm still tweaking with the build, and i think i almost have it so farming them will be very easy. If i tinker with it some more, i will probably post it here, but if the ice imps outside Grotto dont drop IDS's, then i will have to add some running skills to MAYBE make it to the cave past Granite Citadel.

mathijn · Sep 02, 2006, 02:45 AM // 02:45

IDS doesnt drop at grotto, nor outside ice caves of sorrow

minerals springs is the only place

Fow forest solo with R is better btw

12k(shards) and 3 gold weapons in 1 hour run is pretty standart for me

Vvon · Sep 02, 2006, 05:14 AM // 05:14

Balanced, VimWay, and Starburst teams are what I run. I have done IWAY, never got a good enough team...
But I shall press on!
