I need ~1 million in 3 weeks. I've been working on farming lately. I need it for ale/sweets/lockpicks for titles. I want to try to make a ton of money by farming a few hours a day.
The best solution appears to be farming underworld. I just made a trapper today, but I noticed it is painfully slow, and that I used to farm with an ele build that could kill more monsters much faster.
So does anyone know the highest gold/minute farming areas?
1 million gold in 3 weeks

Buy low, sell high. Make money in no time. Yeah this is the quickest way, but its painfully boring... but so is farming at times (but a lot less i think)... but the good thing is u can get drunk while selling =/

And remember -
When powermechanting and you\'re buying at the lowest price range possible, or selling at the highest don\'t listen to those who say -
\"What r u kiddin me? lolz nub gl findin it 4 that\"
or
\"ull neva get one\"
Just ignore them, because it\'s worked for the others who have tried at it so apparently you can get what you\'re looking for at your price, just make sure it\'s not TOO low. Say something has a range of - 6k - 10k. Ask for it at 6.5k to 7k. Then sell it for 9k - 10k. This isn\'t dead base powermerchanting, if it was you\'d be buying at 6k and selling at 10k you know, but this strategy helped me moreso because people seem to respond to it better, give or take a platinum
This is what I\'ve followed and made about 40k-50k in the past 2 days. Yes it is painfully boring, and yes you\'ll probably be sitting somewhere for a huge amount of time, but once you get something for a low price, DON\'T HESITATE, and start selling that right away. The text box should almost look like -
[[WTB ECTO 4.5K]]
WTS Zealous Sword of Fortitude....
WTS ****ABSINTHE X2***** 500 EA
[[WTS ECTO 5.5K]]
Understand? Go right into it, because the longer you wait..the more tears of boredom will be shed.
Another small tip I\'ve found to work is - in LARGE populated places that are premier for selling things (Kaening Center, Lions Arch, Kamadan Jewel of Istan) sometimes you\'ll easily miss the PMs you receive because of so many people selling. You can do two things to fix this problem - you can make the text box bigger. Yes. Make the text box long, but not wide, and this way you\'ll have a much bigger range of seeing who\'s saying what. Also, you can turn up your sound in-game and you\'ll hear a \"ring\" when you get a PM - This can help even if you\'re AFK! This is what I did when I sold one of my Mini\'s. I wasn\'t really on - I put WTS ...... and then after a bit I heard the ring, checked, and sold it, just make sure you respond quickly to them, they may find someone who has a lower price!

Power merching has worked for me. Buying ToT's for 150 then selling for 250. Made 30k today. Holiday and collectors items anytime of the year are gr8 for big pay-offs.

lol.........if you have luck in ha.........a cry sword or ghostly hero will earn you 1 mil in 1 single run...........there is never something that you can't, unless you're not trying............

I would say get about 150k - 200k, and then power trade... If all else fails I have another idea but it could be considered
cheating :P

Anet really screwed up farming and those titles are like 10x harder to accomplish. My advice is that you farm way in advance before an event and just trade in your stuff for the beverages or sweets you need. You cant expect to get 1mil every 3 weeks its impossible legitimately. You just have to plan far ahead and start farming possibly even six months in advance. Last christmas I farmed like 2 week in advance (mind you before nerf for gargoyle skulls) and I made 1.5k spiked eggnog. Most of which i sold because I was dirt poor and never did UW runs until much later.
I beleive at that time it was possible to get FOW armor in a week. UW was so much easier to handle. Actually even way after when they did the free UW/FOW week end i manage i 130+ ectos in just 3 days!! Now it is harder to get ectos like this but it was very possible to back then.

^what D-core farm r u using?
Vann Borakul
What's the best way to farm ectos? I've tried trapping, but it takes a painfully long time. I also don't know if it's best to trap with 1, 2, or 3 people.
dont feel no pain
Uw farm = 25-50k per hour...
say you get 25k per hour
1000/25 = 40 hours
2 hours Uw grinding per day for 3 weeks = 1 mill
gg
wait... does this mean
2 straight days of UW farming = 1 mill.....
I do not have the time... nor would i use it.... i just play for fun... its sad
