sarcon Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 So, I have been playing this game for quite sometime but I never really felt I needed gold. Usually I just went to the dragon chest when I needed and poof I had the basics I required. However, with Merchants around now and a class that seems to need to purchase some crazy expensive things, I find that i need it more. Is there anything else besides the Dragon Chest, Selling crappy equipment and quest that bring more gold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enethier Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 You may or may not know of Fizzie Ironsprocket. If you do, you'll know that my wealth is second only to Anamus (cause he cheats and pools all the knight's donation money!). Unless you count Brehan... Bastard is loaded. So you can take it in good faith when I tell you. Titanium Bracelets Chimera Items Battered Iron Breasplates (~7k a piece if you spread them out and obtainable around level 5-10 in Talos. From the crossroads above the dwarf forest, s s s s w w w w w w s s s s s (so thats 4 south, 6 west, 5 south). Very easy kill. May flee at lower levels when you can't kill it outright. It generates those ruddy breastplates very frequently. each shopkeep has a set gold total, and it takes a LONG time for them to reset, unless characters buy a lot from them. Peltz in Val Miran has the most gold frequently. Farm those items often and before long, you too will be a multi-millionaire. Hope that info is allowed....

Tantangel Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 I was going to post a more simplified version, but Enethier nailed it on the head. There's a few other things you can do as well, but that is the big one at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jibber Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Halfling Hamlet shopkeeps hold a fair amount of gold, as does the shady dealer in the north east of the hamlet. (i.e., easy to kill, easy to farm) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister E Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 When I need gold I kill wealthy mobs. Ask around in game or experiment with this to find the best ones for your character. Luckily for me my current char seldom has use for gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enethier Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 The bag of gold from the arena CAN be worth the investment trying to get. So can slaying the black dragon in house decobru and taking the treasure, which is ~12k. I think I have a small idea who you play, and i wish you all the best of luck! EDIT: ALSO! master your haggling skll by buying a metric buttload of milk. <5 gold a piece and always useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jibber Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Money behind Decobru is 25K if I remember correctly. And you just have to kick dirt/blind the dragon to get past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarcon Posted February 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Ya, the dragon was always my main source before. However I wanted to scoop up some other methods as well. I picked up that armor Enethier in Thalos, it is worth 7K.. very nice. However, None of the shopkeepers in the city were even interested in that.. The bastards. I had to travel far to sell it to someone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enethier Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 the armorers of every city will buy it. i set up a trigger to collect them that runs me back and forth between peltz in Val Miran, so at the very least, he does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enethier Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 That's called a macro. The more you know I built with the trigger section of mudlet to go off when i go to that room soooo its a trigger. The more you know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aulian Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 How about finding something awesome... And selling it to the Merchants. Specifically the ranger one and the warrior, I think they both 'specialise' in rare eq. Its a business deal though so I wouldnt expect top price, but you can make a fair bit brokering whatever rares you have through them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Forsaken Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 If you're level 50 or close, the ration seller in Tainted Valley usually carries around 20k. Pretty easy kill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akoz Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 When I need gold I just kill someone who carries it... jibbers... fizzie.. ect. lol j/k we all know I cant pk ANYONE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pali Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 The goblins leading up to the lieutenant tend to have a thousand or so on each of them - a run through is easy and quick and tends to net around 20k. But my personal favorite is to kill the chimera a few times until I've got three or four sacks of gold - sure, you don't want to log off with them since they're rare, but if you've got an hour or so of playtime ahead of you you'll be netting craploads if you use them as often as possible (twice a day, I think). 20k or so investment will net you over 100k in an hour's play, and you can do other things while raising the money. Daenaer raised millions doing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f0xx Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 There are so many ways to get gold it's not even funny. On that topic, goodies have it a bit harder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyzarius Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 By definition a macro completes a series of instructions. An alias is a substitute for a command Gold though, slay temor, grab arena bags...sell titanium bracers, kill other players who carry a lot of gold.

The-Nameless Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 if your not opposed to killing halflings you can kill the shopkeepers, and the modest halfling, in the hamlet. I seem to remember netting around 70-100k per pass. You can sell back the loot you get too. Very useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Filth Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Selling back their loot only works if you do not plan to kill them again. They will respawn with x gold and use that gold to buy your loots, and have whatever is left on them when they die. And let's settle the macro/alias/trigger dispute by taking a step back and calling it your script. You made a script to gather items and sell them to shopkeepers. Also, I remember someone posted a while back how a shaman can literally farm gold. Does anyone know the details of this claim? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Implementor Anume Posted March 14, 2012 Implementor Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 This works also with archers. Apart from that, there is nobody who can make money as fast as a Merchant who knows what they are doing and is putting some effort into it.
