I think running earns the best money for people who can't merchant
4ppl payin 2k every 10 minutes for a run (this is kinda worst case)
makes great money I've had 50k an hour

From what I know it's Powertrading; buy less, sell high.

k, jokes aside.

I tried trading, mission running, farming (abit).

So far, i rank them as follows:

Trading > Mission Running > Farming

Trading wise, u need some start up funds, and a good knowledge of item prices. Negotiation skills helps alot too.

Mission running isn't too hard if you can mod up heros and do some of the harder mission which are more in demand. From my exp, jennur horde, nunda bay, raisu, hell precipice, gom are the more popular ones.

Farming: you either find a really good spot which no one knows, or just be contented to an overfarmed area which someone has shared.

Yeah, as of now, may I ask for some Good farming spots? It probably takes me 10 times longer to load screens than most fo you, so I can try missions a bit, but idk how long people will endure me... Anyway, I may try running droks if I ever get a faster pc, which doesn't sound like bad money, since I got the build and everything

Keep the answers coming, there all great.

And Merchanting/Tradeing, doesn't sound bad, sounds liek alot of you make alot of money, but as of now, I'm not donig too good on that topic, I boguht a ammy of the mists for 8k, and now I can't even sell my exalted aegis(str) for 12k lol. So we'll see what happens

But everything sounds great, I love hearing all this advice, thanks so much.

P.S. Oh... How does Impieral Sanctum sound with teh A/D build? I mean I can't relaly do it masters, but I can do it for like 1k and get a nice number party.

The fastest way is buying gold. 2nd fastest is scamming someone rich and dumb.
Seriously though, power trading is the best if you can stomach it. I would say farming > running missions though, running missions is only really worth it in the few months after a campaign is released when lots of nubs need help. ie you could get 4 people a run at 25k each pretty easily for gate of madness in the first 2 months, now people scream bloody murder if you charge more then 4k each.

Asking for examples of farming builds or techniques in a farming section is very retarded. Do it yourself.

Hope 'm not offending anyone, but I mean examples from you guys... I mean, your telling me to do like farming, or the best is missions, I did get an example on missions, but can someone please help me more with what kind of farming I should do.... I'm only asking for advice, I would really love if somone could just point me in a way for mobs. I did find a nice place, I remember noone knows about as of my knowledge. Working on a build, but hfff, is ok, but... well my pc takes like a minute to load in and out of there sometimes a bit longer since my pc is bad... so we'll see

For me, it's all about power trading. The most boring, yet effective way to make money in just about any mmorpg (I know gws isn't exactly the type but it is kind of a rpg).

I made about 100e in like 4-5 days just by buying low and selling high.
