I run a spider capping service for 30k now 30k in about 30mins + whatever ectos drop (usually 0-1 on a spider cap). Also since i'm the only one doing it at present clients are picked up pretty quickly.

Honestly though, the richest people are those that trade. They get together about 100k buy up some item thats selling low. You gota do research and really know your items. So they buy 100k item and resell it for 100k +30 ecto netting close to 200k profit.

Also people buy unwanted greens and golds for 1k and resell em for 5-10k+. Granted this bores the daylights out of me but it makes the most money the quickest.

Since so many "newbs" do buy their money off ebay they don't really know the price of items and thus can be made to pay dearly for their cheating ways muahahaha, explotation.

(and b4 i get flamed for "its not cheating" its clearly defined by GuildWars as illegal)

There is no "best" way to make money. You have to try several different ways, see what you enjoy doing and what you're really good at. If you enjoy what you do, you'll want to do it more often and for longer periods of time.

Try uw, try FoW, try ettins, try buylow/sellhigh, try chest farming, try presearing black dye farming. There's all kinds of ways. It's all about finding out what you enjoy doing.

It IS cheating. Anyone who defends ebay gold in these forums will have a legion of players flaming them. You won't be flamed for this.

"best way to make money"

-look at the 6.022 x 10^23 threads on this subject.
-"best" is relative, some people might think some ways are better than others.
-if you want to know the easiest, id suggest buying it
-trolls are for beginners, try moving onto something harder

yeah im not hating just saying. theers atleast 10 places you could get 100k in a day from if you actually tried to learn them and aren't lazy enough to do them.

With my W/Mo i farmed totem axes getting around 10k for each and about 2-3 a run (approximately 30-40 min) i had a set of 15k armor in a few hours...but since then totems only sell for 5k. But still this is a pretty good way to make some quick money. And if u want me to show u a run PM me IGN D A S Achilles

I remember this guy on my friend list once... all he does is farm SF, at least 2x a day, and man... wasn't that guy rich -.-
I usually farm it, but then it gets long and boring, and the green droprate blows. Now with heroes, there's no need for a team... which is good for farming, but bad for PvE factors =/

Haha, Apple hit it on the head. I've turned 10K into 70K in one day by just standing next to storage in a single town. Buy/sell, buy/sell, buy/sell. LOL. I didn't even have to move (the come to me everytime).

I haven't tried since the AoE update, but judging by the posts from others, I'd say that it is still doable.
