So

I was wondering what is the best way to get money? I have a level 5 W/R but I want to get some good armor and weapons but so far the money that I get seems to be quite small. Then again I have only gotten past the great northern wall quest. So how to I become rich so I can get some wicked armor and stuff?

First of all get to higher lvl, do missions and pick everything that drops for you and sell it to merchant, dont ID any non max golds you find exept very rare skins, so you can sold them to ppl for wisdom title You can get around 1.5k from each unid gold

browse the forums... since you have a war it should not be hard to get into farming as most of their farming is pretty basic.

Well, as a Warrior in Prophecies you will have many farming possibilities. You won't really be able to start making alot of money until you are level 20 and can solo higher level creatures, but that wont take very long. Go through the quests and missions, you will be able to get better armor as you go along, max armor once you get to Droknar's Forge. After that, go through the forums and look at farming builds, there are a bunch of them. Several green (unique) items are pretty cheap for a warrior, check out guildwiki.org for information about all that. It's your friend!

The best farming you could do is just play the game as it was designed to be on the first go. Do all the missions + quests. This will give you more then enough drops / golds to get you by. Also join a nice pve guild, they will prob. donate you max armor ^^

I suggest you check out Collector npcs at http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Collector they offer quite nice assortment of armor and weapons for bargain prices.

Anyway, tip to start:

* Getting skills is way more important than weapon or armor at your level. Good defensive skill is way more effective than armor you can get right now, good offensive skill is better than any weapon you can wield. Do quests for skills, buying then at your level less effectve than finishing quests.
