Pure Gold

There's is an amazing amount of info on where to farm for items and what kind of build to do so.But what if your need is not items and your build is ok,but you need 500k gold(money).Now some would say go farm ectos and sell them(or some other high end item).I've noticed that when you start talking "I want 50K+ for my such n such"that you could spend a couple hours trying to find someone with that amount of gold to burn on it.Where or how is a good way to go after STRICTLY gold?Can this be done in both Normal and Hard Mode?

The way you make money is by getting those rare items and crafting materials then selling them for gold. If you just farm gold it would take years to get to 500k since only like 100-200 gold drops on average.

thats not possible. You can get gold items and sell 7 of them from 5k thats a good deal for wisdom(title) people

So basically farm items or live on welfare.

Alright message taken.Was curious if maybe I was just completely farming wrong or something.I am relatively new to the game and was just wondering.

Everything drops gold, there aren't any spots that drop more then another. So youir best best is to provide a service or sell items.

Hero faction farm.... 150 gold per min... no where else in the game can you make gold that fast (without getting a lucky item drop) Lutgardis Conservatory (factions) is where this is done from....


Breakdown is like this if your farming the Kurzick title track

10k faction is 25 runs thats 3750 gold per 10k faction... takes about 25 to 30 mins for 10k faction.

To max this title is 10 mill faction donated... that is 25thousand runs.....

that is 3 mill 750k gold farmed... time... well nah thats about as far as my math skills go lol

Personaly I think this farm right here is just one more set of evidence that loot scaleing seriously needs to change. When you can make more gold killing NOTHING......something is seriously wrong with the drop rate of cold hard cash.

Allow me to ad I dont find anything wrong with this hero faction farm it is a nice thing for those like me that can not stand alliance battles... But... come on I've totaly stoped killing baddies for loot because quite frankly .... this is more profitable.....

Loot Scaling isn't the problem there...It's the fact that a runner can make 350g in <1 minute, every minute (His 150 + two other people dropping him 100 (the usuall going price for HFFF))

MLiC

Power merching elite tomes.

Buy low, sell high, pocket the difference.

You need a minimum of 50k to get started. Buy monk, ele, and necro tomes for anything below 10k, and sell for 10k or higher. Rit tomes can be had for 10k and easily sold for 14k. The other tomes generally dont move as fast as these 4....

I tend to stick mainly to Monk, Ele, Necro and Ritualist elite tomes.........especially when you're just starting. Once you get to the 150k levels you can expand into whatever you want. I made about 200k in a weekend pretty quickly and very easily doing this.

Stick to the 3 large trade towns (kamadan, lions arch, and the one i always misspell, kiachang center.)

Kobey, Bocjo and Dr Dimento have the right idea.
Run people from to town to town / missions / dungeons. You need to be good at it and fraud / failure is a risk. Power trading is the how-to-guide to getting stinking rich. Boring. HFFF with multiple accounts is working for me to farm just gold. With 3 a/c's it takes me about 80-90 secs per cycle (town > zone > mission > 3 x reward > town) and nets me 20K / hr in gold. Two accounts trade their faction for Amber, so toss that into the mix. Boring but the faction title tracks are useful for PvE skills. Event weekends are a gold-mine. Event items sell like hot-cakes so it's easy to make 500K-1000K over a weekend. Requires elbow grease and mindless repetition. Hidden treasures in Nightfall. With 10 toons (1 of ea class) grabbing rewards once every 31 days, there's an easy 100K-150K for one day's work / month. Treasure drops include cash rewards of 500g to 2500g, they add up quickly to around 10K-15K per character per run. Farm Raptor Nestlings for gold items, sell in Spamadan as 7 gold unid 5K.

~270 gold/minute

IMO Destroyer Core farming is where it's really at these days. They go for 300-400g each, usually 300 though. If you have the right build and equipment you can solo NM as a Warrior (which I see that you are). It takes about 3-4 minutes and you usually get 3 per run. If you do this I recommend that you save up more than just a few because most people will prefer to buy in bulk.

Follow the directions, except for stats. You need 15 Strength total, otherwise you are more likely to die because Dolyak won't give as much armor, and will last only 18 seconds, rather than 20. Just take points from tactics, because if you have at least 3 in tactics you're fine.

Hope this helps. The only real way to get raw gold has been nerfed for a while now. You used to be able to farm Vermin outside of Senji's Corner and get tons of raw gold but not anymore.

You can make a metric shit ton of money with an elementalist (and a friend who is also an ele) running people thru nahpui quarter (both normal and HM). The run takes about 13 minutes.....and (charging people 4k a pop, 5k for HM) you can make about 30k per run (split 2 ways is 15k per person).

Takes no more than 13 minutes once you get used to it.......and since 25 is masters (like 30 something in HM) it's easy money.

I find the biggest thing that slows me down is people calling me a scammer in Nahpui because according to them it's "impossible" to do it with an ele........despite the fact that i've solo'd it multiple times (takes 40+ minutes completely solo).

wait so you just duo? No heroes or anything? I might have to look into that, mind showing me some time?
