it is realy expensive. I have a 20 Derv and 20 Sin and plan on buying 15k armor for both but i have no clue how to make 60k+ the cost of mats. Any suggestions? i have a few of the mats saved up, but the money seems to be the main problem.
P.S. i plan on buying the derv's first

I know this'll be an incredibly slow process and there's probably better suggestions out there, but you know the drops you get in the game? Pick them all up and sell them. I had 60k before I even realized it :3

Farming, trading, running and vanquishing are all good ways to earn fast money. I also personally like Fronis Irontoe's Lair in HM (1.5k each 10 minutes run, tomes, lot of xp, and ale ^^)

Identify your white items as well, it adds to their value.

Do EotN xD.
I was able to buy half of my sin dwarven armor when I finished it (and I had to buy the stupid skales xD) and I still had some money left.

Along with some of the suggestions in this thread, make sure you do Zaishen Challenge every day. earn the faction up quick, buy Zaishen keys, open Zaishen chest (or sell the keys for like 3k each). Most of the time you'll get crap from the zchest, but it does have the chance to drop a few items, that just one will make you filthy rich for the rest of your GW career.

Yeah, you should be unlocking stuff for your heroes before using the Z-chest.

I wasn't able to afford my first 15k set until about.. ooo.. a year after I started playing. However, that was without dong heavy duty farming runs. The extra time spent makes me appreciate the sets that I do have even more.

Just save your money, work on other things, identify your whites from high end areas, and you'll probably be pleasantly surprised by how fast that 75k shows up in your pockets.

I suggest Farming to get cash-

Power trading, Chest running, Z-keys are a bit of a gamble and you dont have money to throw around.

For starters

do you have HM on any campaigns?

What professions do you have skills with and what professions can you play>

Use whatever money you have saved up to gear your dervish for UW/FoW solo. You should be able to make the money easily in a week.

Getting all the Treasure Chests in Nightfall with 3-4 characters should yield you 60k.

NF chests ftw.

A single run on my necro yielded me 30k, then my ele was another 20k, my mes got 25k, paragon got another 20k.

This is including drops on the way/from the chests.

I wouldn't reccommend UW/FoW until you have a decent amount of money already and are experienced in farming, since it can end up costing you way more money that you make when you first start. If you have prophecies, running from Beacon's Perch to Droknars Forge can yield quite a bit of money.

If you have HM unlock in Factions, you can take a Monk Hero with your sin and do Naphui HM to farm feathers, a stack of feathers sells for around 7k at current market prices. And doesn't take that long to get.

PM me if you need builds. ^_^

The way I make money:

Vanquishing.
CoF Running with my 600.
Regular running with my ranger.
Selling tons of whites and really bad golds.

Every now and then I do a UW or FoW run, those are nice if you need ectos or shards.
Just remember, money accumulates fast but is spent very easily.

That is not power trading. That is trading.
