ok guys i have a level 20 mage. most of the money ive made was from vendored items.


Is there anyway i can make money besides selling it with the house option? im not a fan of AFKing with my computer on for several hours... and honestly prices on gear and items are expensive. 5 silver is really hard to come by.


I feel like the lack of options to get money stops my progress.

i just vendor everything i get i think by level 15 ust rushing through levels i had just shy of 9Silver. also the Phino/phinofly's in Mist Forest drop nice rings you can sell to players theres 2 varieties with +2 to 3 different stats.

I agree,*I can make 500 copper in less than 30 min just by killing everything I walk by.

Pick up all the loot you get from killing things and sell the stuff you dont want (or need) to NPC stores


That's how I make my money and I normally have about


1 silver + (only because I buy a lot of skills and stuff)


If you need some good money really quick then go on a grind session for a couple hours until you inventory is maxed or almost maxed then just get rid of all the junk and crap.

I pick up everything monsters drop and then sell the stuff I don't want (like crushed bones). I've got almost 900 copper now and I'm a level 10 archer.

Just use your production skills and sell them to players...


 


I've made 15 silver in two days :/

hmmm. let's see. I find it hard to grind monsters for items. most of the items i need to craft are low for me now. what makes it worse is i don't receive anymore drops from many mobs anymore.


*ive read somewhere on the forums you could create a lower level character and just farm items that can be stored in the same bank...


I'm really more interested in playing one class not starting another.


 


About looting everything and selling it.... Did that.. done that... still broke lol.* I think i made the mistake of picking up 2 second refining skills.* Potions and Scribes. =s**


*Making + HP scrolls and unlimited health potions helps ALOT for someone with a base of 300 hp hah


 


What I might do is just go ahead and focus on advancing one profession =\* sell ALL the other mats to*a vendor.


 


If only there was an auction house system or a trade*district where everyone can congregate and SPAM buying and selling... it'd make making money a bit more convient.


 


OR quests give a bit more reward money or store bought skills and items were more affordable


 


 


Thank you all for your responses!

for real the quests SHOULD have more reward money think the most i ever got for a quest was 27 copper?* still its extra exp points...I finally got my first silver lol...but yah hoarding everything is a good way of making money fast...i mean dont just kill the E's but also harvest herbs, plants, and shrubs...lol steal other people's drops if you have to...I pick up everything i can.* all in all tho I think the quality of a weapon should go up after u put weapon titles on it...that would make making money a lil easier to.* or lets say upgrade a weapon. anyways look for me in game elfreakyfrog, level 14 fighter

Instead of selling to NPCs sell to people with purchase stores. they sometimes offer pretty good money for materials to boost their productionskills. Sold tough meat for 50c each yesterday. 2500c easy as a pancake... :)

oh on a second thought...if you find any pets?* like in treasure chests?* they sell for 7 silvers...thought u should know... another thought is using your fame to buy alchemy stones because they are hard to find out in the wild then selling them for 800 a piece when u buy them with your fame in elderine u get 50 of them that's 40 silver if u sell all 50...so use your fame wisely and it will reward u well

I've been semi lucky.** i figured to be patient and look for people buying*my mats.* its sort of a reason to horde my materials.*


*so joffetomten.. i figured that out too =b


 


anywho...*I know our charcters will be erased come*opening... so I'm just finding the best method to raise money for next time =)

If you want money take the erule skill and make as many as you can than sell them for 30-50c and they'll be gone in the first five minutes
