Money Making

12.175.14.2: /* Scroll Production */

Welcome to official Fiestafan's money making guide!

== Basics ==

It's simple. Everyone needs money for grinding, skills, armor, weapons, Etc... This list could go on.

However making money is not that hard as you think. I will list a few basic ways to make money in this game.

=== Player Selling ===

Now this takes a bit more time, although you do get more profit. Just set up a shop anywhere in a crowded place, and sell off your wares from mobs.

=== Tips on making profits ===
Here are some tips on what to sell and at what prices to get you some profits:
* 1) When you open up your shop to BUY (instead of sell), price your ingredients lower than the product you will sell later on. Though, this already should be common sense.
Ex: I can buy 5c or 6c per spirit fruit AND 7c per Tough Meat, then make HP Pots, and sell them each for 25-35c. (Though I usually do it at 30-33c), and just by that, your 10-11c/ingredients can make up to about 25c profit per HP pot, depending on your price, and if you had 50 HP pots, that's 1s and 250c already! Not the best example, but quick money since HP pots sell pretty fast for me. 

* 2) Buy ingredients for a skill you don't have for lower the price you can sell it for. NPCing is what, 3-4c sometimes? Give or take? Well, if you buy say, old dusts for 5c or 6c, then sell them for like 8-11c, you can make some profit there. Though it may be a bit slow, it's still good money if you don't have that skill and don't wanna bother selling erules. (right now, the stone economy is pretty low since everybody has that skill, so I decided to sell the mats and they do sell quick!) 

* 3) SAVE! SAVE! SAVE! Yeah, saving money does help. :P Basically save up, don't buy a skill or weapon you don't really really need until you figure you do need it. 

* 4) QUEST! In simple terms, (some) quests give you good exp and a reasonable amount of money. Heh. 

* 5) Slime KQ -- try it! I think slime KQs give the best prizes (well, this is biased from my own personal experience :P), but still, KQs in general can give you really awesome prizes. If you do enough slime KQs, you can level really fast and maybe have tons of pre-enhanced weapons or something to sell.
My first KQ I got a +6 wep, then a +5 and then a lot of +2s and +3s. I enhanced them up to +4s and +5s if lucky, and sold it for QUITE a profit altogether. (: Though, haha, this is pretty time consuming if you don't get anything good. xD 

* 6) Grinding during your higher levels -- Again, in simple terms: Good EXP (if you're grinding with the right crowd) and a good or great amount of money when you NPC drops. 

*7) Farminnnnnggggg -- Yeah, lol. Farming herbs or stuff on high-lvled maps can really be helpful when you NPC it. However, it's pretty time-consuming and sometimes you might die, yeah, if you get mobbed. Woot.

- Dream.

Lol Best way if your feeeeeling strong >:) If you fight Marlone or King Marlone there's a chance at getting a speicla weapon (+ i think too) from him. If you ever get these sell them for a HIGH PROFIT!!! I would recommend for King Marlone be level 29 and for Marlone be 29+. Fighteruser

==Advanced Methods==

===Alchemy===
The most common choice for money making is Alchemy. Alchemy is divided into 5 portions in Fiesta.

====Scroll Production ====
Scroll Production is one of the most common Alchemy skills chosen and also one of the most difficult if you are just starting out. Simply purchase the materials required (Suggested Price: 8~10c each.) Afterwards, sell them off at whatever price you wish. Due to(the extremely high supply, it is not recommended to exceed 150c.

However, purchasing is not a guaranteed option for scroll productions because of the high demand for summoned beast items. Hence, for beginners who wish to take Scroll Production it is highly suggested that you stick to slimes, slow slimes, ratmen, little lizards and ice vivii when levelling up to ensure you get the preliminary items

====Potion Production====
Potion Production is more difficult and not as often chosen as the Stone Production skill. Potions require at least three materials, and the price most will buy at will be around 20-30c. Vending potions will be difficult, so it is not recommended for those with little patience.

====Stone Production====
Stone Production is also a very popular Alchemy skill. Required for enhancement, enhancement stones usually bring a decent price. However, because of the fact that there are many people with this skill, money making may not be as easy as previously thought in Closed Beta testing. Nevertheless, enhancement stones will still be needed in order to create more powerful weapons, so there will always be a demand for enhancement stones.

====Material Composition====
This skill will require copious amounts of capital. From the beginning, there will be very little profit, if any at all. After a certain point, there will be possibility for profit.

====Material Decomposition====
Similar to Material Composition, this skill will require capital as well. However, there is profit almost immediately - Tier 2 ingredients can be decomposed into Tier 1 items, which can usual counterbalance the costs for production. A bit more profit can be generated from Material Decomposition over Material Composition, but not much.

Enhancement Guide

12.175.14.2: /* Appearance List */

You want a shiny cool weapon like everyone else, right? But you don't know how to do it? Here is a quick guide on how to get it. Enhancing a weapon is simply upgrading it by adding extra damage, and adding a cool looking effect to it. But enhancing doesn't just stop there, it can also be done to armor to increase the defense they give, but they won't have any extra appearance effects.

==Basics==
===Items For Enhancing===
*'''Items Needed For a Weapon/Armor Enhancing'''
**A Weapon/Armor
**Elrue/Lix/Xir

*'''About The Stones'''
**Elrue/Lix/Xir are items that are used to upgrade weapons and armors.
**Most usable items have tiers. Tiers are item classes, and you must use a Elrue/Lix/Xir that is the same tier as the item you want to refine.
**Elrue upgrades from +1 to ~+3, Lix from +4 to +6 and Xir from +7 to +9.
**Aside from different tiers of items, the Elrue/Lix/Xir all have different types, which are Normal(green), Blessed(purple) and Lucky(blue). The different types affect different things. Lucky raises by +2 instead of +1 by a small chance, blessed decreases chance of breaking. Normal does what it's supposed to.

===How To Get Elrue/Lix/Xir===
*Stone Alchemy(Production Skill)
*Monster Drops
*Mining
*Quest Rewards
*Kingdom Quest Rewards
*Treasure Chest

If you choose to make your own stones with the Stone Production Skill, first press "K" and go to the Alchemy tab. Learn Stone Production (-NOTE- You can only learn 2/5). Then go to the skill lady in any town. Learn the Stone Recipe Skills. Right click the item and learn the recipe. Now press "K" and drag the stone production skill to the skill try and/or right click it.

Now you'll open up a window with Elrue in the list. If you see Tier 1 all in green you did it correctly so far. Now click the Elrue (The first one that appears) start making them if you can. If you cannot go kill some monsters that drop the item(s) that you need. Now you have some Elrue stones.

===How To Enhance===
To enhance something you must go to a Weapons Smith. After you find one, talk to him and click the "Refine Weapon" button. Another window will open with many boxes inside it. The center box is for the weapon or armor you wish to refine. The other 8 boxes around it are for the Elrue/Lix/Xir to go in. The lower 3 boxes have an unknown purpose at this time.

The process of enhancing is simple, and requires nothing more then luck. You pick one of the 8 boxes for the Elrue/Lix/Xir and drag and drop it in. If you have more than one Elrue, you may need to separate one into a separate pile of its own. To do so, press "Shift" and click on the Elrue, and set "Item Allocation" to "1", press OK, and click in an empty inventory square. Alternatively, you can simply allow the default number generated in the "Item Allocation" box, press OK, and click in an empty inventory space and achieve the same results.

After you have one Elrue ready, click the button in the lower left area of the refine window to start the process. The enhancing is successful if the spinning star lands on the box opposite of where you placed your Elrue/Lix/Xir. If it was successful then it will gain +1. If it doesn't land there, then 1 of 3 things will happen. Your item will remain the same, your item will decrease a level of enhancement, or your item may be destroyed. This is the basics of enhancing. If you click the button and your item disappears, it has been destroyed. Some say the more you break the more luck you have on the enhancing skills. [Unconfirmed]

Suggestion: At levels under 20, you should only enchant your weapons and armor to +3 (3 Elrues) as you will advance to level 20 quickly. Also, you should only risk enchanting your equipment if you have enough money for a replacement piece. If you don't, you may find yourself without anything to wear! If you do break your item and have no more money to buy a new one, use your old weapon. You should not sell your old weapons until you are sure you don't need it.

==Stone List==
'''Tier One Stones''' 
Tier two and three just have a number 2 or 3 at the top left corner for level two or level three items.
