I've been playing gw for quite sometime. Have loads of skills(close to skill hunter title on all the campains) and close to finishing/vanquishing most of the campains(finished prophecies). So I pretty much have access to all area's. Most of the time I'm running around with +- 30k, cant seem to save up more than that :$.

Suddenly I have a need to buy obsidian armor. I've never tried farming before, can you guys recommend any places to start of will an Ele, including maybe a link to the skill set to use?

L33tNeMiSiS,

You must be spending alot on something, I just finished vanquishing Tyria and have over 150K gold from salvaging/selling all unneeded items. If you truly are L33t, I would head over to Domain of Anguish and find a group that does all 4 areas in Hard Mode. I haven't been there in awhile (due to vanquishing), but the Searing Flame Ele build use to be popular. Check this link:

Not sure how I have been doing it but I have been making good money just playing GWEN. I stopped buying keys and it is amazing how you start making money.

Meh. I got complimented on mine just yesterday. But having it doesn't make one "1337." Being damn good at what you're doing is what matters.

Well, powerselling might work for you? All i have to say is have fun lol obsidian armor takes time and you will need more than 1.5 million in total money. If you are patient i think you can make that much without having to be all gungho on gw in say two or three months maybe more lol

1.5 million? Not for a long time. 105 ecto at 5k each is 525k, 105 shards at 2.1k each is 220.5k, around 6k for other materials (estimate, I have no idea) and 75k in actual money is 826.5k. That's about half of what you said. I have looked into these prices briefly as I was considering buying my first FoW set myself.

Thz for all the posts. After about 500hours of game time I at least wanna have something to show for it :P. Did my first farm run last night, soloed HM Ascalon, made about 1k every 10min. And as somebody else said. It's quite amazing how much lockpicks cost you in the long run :P.

Correct... on the lockpicks. They ultra rarely generate anything of value. They are good for one thing only. Wisdom and Treasure titles.

With the right team you can do the noob Antiquity dungeon really quick 15 min or so. 1500 gold every time and chest at the end.
