green farming FTW! factions has made me a very rich man. i just find the current highest price/popular green and i either look for a build or make up a build to solo the green. the trick is to sell everything as soon as possible because green prices drop drastically in a matter of weeks or days.

Mini pet lows/high are good for starters, did that to go from 70k to 300k in a few hours. Now I just solo troll mostly. Funner way. Also can get decent/good golds.

At least it isn't as bad as me... I buy low, and try and sell moderate... usually end up stashing it on a mule, and giving it away because I get annoyed, lol

Buy sell... yeah, like everyone else, although my recent memorable trade:

Person: Selling rockmolder
Me: 20%?
Person: yes
Me: how much?
Person: 3k
Me: ok
*trades*
Evening b4 rockmolder nerf
Me: Selling pre nerf rockmolder 20% global pm offers!
guy: 60k
Me: *tired of lowballs and window shoppers* fine
*Trades*

! SAME NIGHT, ROCKMOLDER GETS NERFED DOWN TO 10%!

I say I walked away from a potential profit loss, 2bad for the guy, but I made good use of his money.

Also some guy wanting to buy a shadow sword in kaineng and offered to pay an ecto and a phoenix blade(which I asked for stats and its 14>50 req 10) I told him about victo blade and he said I'm interested. Told him to wait there, went to TOPK, got blade for 8k, traded w/ the guy, ecto paid for the blade, sold the phoenix blade for 55k.

Well, guess thats one of my more memorable stories, also bought a 30hp req 8 eternal shield for 10k in which the seller after selling asked, its worth more than that isn't it? I gave a pretty vague answer..... I sold it for 40 ecto \m/

lets see...

first of all, i get a bot that farms elona reach for me. once anti farm triggers, ill decide to AFK in aspenwood until i have a nice amount of jade & amber. then ill randomly decide to hack someone rich and take all their money =) and if that doesnt get me money fast enough for unkown reasons, i spend my time begging!


..........................

*serious part*

anything that contains trading doesnt work at all for me, since i suck with prices and dont have any luck, and dont like spending hours in towns spamming WTB, WTS, or any other forms of evading it to spam local (idiots! ><)

i cant really do the same thing for a long time, so i usually just farm something, then play the game in a normal way, farm something else, buy some keys there, waste my money, have luck once, sell my sundering 20/20 sword hilt to a noob and have a nice profit of 10k~ depending on how much i wasted on keys (roflmao xD)

then ill usually do some rounds of aspenwood and get some amber or jade (depending on my mood, mostly kurz tho, since bonding is so lame and easy at the same time xP)

but besides..i usually get my money from plaing HENCHING. yes, henching. exploring, helping people, questing, and any other other stuff my titlelist needs work on :P

UW now and then if i need a quick ecto or something works just fine as well

maybe ill try greenfarming at SF again, lol

For those of you wondering, a good way to buy low and sell high is to look for the people spamming "WTS lots of gold items at storage." They usually just want to get rid of them. Find their best item, and offer something really low, and theres a good chance you'll get it.
