But with missions, i set up scheldules with clients and run missions that take like 15-25min for 15k. Never have to worry about spamming in chatto get ppl.
Running all kinds of mission across Factions and Nightfall(barely in Tyria) i make usually around 30-40k per hour. How muchs obby these days? 600k? 800k?
Thats like 20 hours runing maybe? Run an hour a day(not bad at all) maybe 2 hours on saturday and sunday and you got urslef a set of fissy armor in 2-3 weeks. Pas mal, pas mal So which missions DO you run.... and how? I mean how the heck does one "run" a mission when it requires killing things?

Run means more than just straight running... I thought that would be obvious to anyone smart enough to use a computer. :/

When I think of "running"... I tend to think of equipping speed-boosts and damage mitigation.... then charging from A to B without taking too much damage.

I'm trying to think of missions that can effectively be "ran" ... and only a few come to mind.


So.... what is your obvious (yet totally counter-intuitive) definition of "running" something?

I think a few missions can be "ran" as you think of it. Such as the Great Northern Wall. One can run to the cutscene, then run back along the wall. I have also considered "running" a mission to be someone who loads up with a few heroes / hench and takes a couple of humans with them. The runner is confident enough in their abilities that they can complete the mission without a full team, allowing the humans to go afk for the duration. I think "running" a mission is just an extension of the previous meaning of having an Explorable area "ran".

There are some people who offer such a service. Some people can charge up to 50k to run one mission as far as I know. I would find the link but it was so long ago I really can't remember where I saw it.

More like "rushing" with my good heros and some henchies usually 1-2 ppl at a time. A select few missions, however, i can actually run.(Elona Reach, Sanctum Kay, Jhenur's Hord, etc..)

And i run pretty much all of them, I mean of course people dont want easy ones ran usually but the rest..
Most Popular- Dragzor Bastion, Jhenurs Hord, Naqui Quarter, Gate of Pain, Gate of Madness, Abbadon, Thunderhead Keep, RIng of Fire, Abbadons Mouth, Hells Precipe.

I generally dont run in hard mode(ppl usually dont want to).

Also, i have mish+bonus differenciation sometimes. Example- Mish-10k Mish+Bonus-15k. But if the bonus is on the way of mission ill usually just do it anyway.


Regardless, however, i would have to agree that power trading is definetly the best way to make money. However, it requires you to have a good understanding of the market, which can take months to learn.
Most of the money, though, i have ever made was from power trading..

Useful...real useful. 50k is a little steep for an ordinary mission...

However, i have heard of people paying 100k+ for ppl to do DoA for them. Never tried it my self, but if you have lost of time that might be a good way...

There's actually a forum for these kind of services (Although I don't use it), click here.
