How do you make money?

**Belaslav** · 07-28-2007, 03:36 AM

I need some suggestions, cause I'm down to my last 2s and I need a lot more for my grinding needs. All help will be appreciated.

I usually try and save the drops and sell them via setting up a shop rather than NPC-ing them. Sure, it might take a while to sell things off, but if you sell them off for more than you can get from an NPC, then I reckon you should do it that way if you really need the money. You can also try training at the mobs that drops licenses (which is pretty much all the mobs from ratmen and up I think?), because I gathered a few and made a little bit of money out of them.

Have you tried mining ores? I heard you can make quite a bit out of them when you mine a bunch and sell them off. I also use the stone skill to make a stack of enhancing stones, and when I sell them off together, you become quite rich.

I knew I should've went for stone production skill!

=(

But seriously, how long does it take for you to sell your items via vendor?

Well the licenses actually took me only about 45 minutes I think (I went to eat, but when I came back I was dc'ed. I logged in again to find all my licenses gone, so I assumed I sold them all before dc'ing). I also sold some +'ed EQs from king slime quests which got sold in about 30 minutes! I think I underpriced them though since I wasn't sure how much they were worth. ><"

Oh and completing quests! I like the amount we get from at level 16+ quests maybe? It's not alot, but at least it'd make up a bit of my sp and hp stones cost.

Well Kq's weapons dont sell for muuch npc at least the level 15 ones don't. I usually sell the drops that I dont need for scrolls/stones.

If you need money, I'm buying tough meats 20Coppers each :O

I really dont know how I made money though. I got my weapons from KQs and kept the wand from job advancement. I'd suggest using shield scrolls, probably biggest pot/stone money saver ever. If you need someone to make shield scrolls, they only require 3 tough leather and 2 summoned beast leather

stone making is pretty effective and will make ALOT MORE in the future...

If that doesn't work, find your nearest lvl 20 or lvl 30 boss/elite monster and farm rares...

Definitely stonemaking on my alt.

I made 30s yesterday selling Tier 2 stones.

Actually, you know what? Maybe you can make two or three characters, each for a type of alchemy. That's actually what I have atm, that's why I can make a bit of everything if I can. You don't have to level them a lot of you don't want to, you just need to level them enough so you get enough skill points to make Elrues and Lix's (and Xir's, perhaps). I'm pretty sure Lix's can earn you quite an amount of money.

That way, you don't have to waste extra skill points on a character if you're learning two types of alchemy on one char; plus you don't need to sell off your scrolls! And Bela, try to sell them for 150 or something. That's what I see everyone selling for, and I'm pretty sure you can sell them off for that price. D: That's double the money you can earn!
