I made a new char on Eldorado and I don't have any money cuz it's my char on that server. I kept on buying 50 herbs MP and HP, and now I don't have enough to buy more.

My personal new server char strategy...
No matter what weapon you wanna end up with, start as a bow. fight mangyangs till 6-7 You dont need pots just wear what you find and use whatever weapon you find is the strongest. You dont have any mastery yet, so it doesnt matter at all what weap you use. Save all the gold and herbs you get without using them and bank.
then fight bigeyed/smalleyed and weasles till 10-12 also dont really need pots and the above still applies if you are going to be SP farming at 16.
NPC all the drops you get that are white and poor %, stall everything else. New servers means everyone is looking for non NPC gear and even white with good % will sell.
At 12 you can start getting herbs and go fight the stumps. Keep NPCing gears you dont actually need and wearing what you find. When they are green or blue go for the tigers. You WILL need herbs by this time.
By the time you hit 16 you should have saved enough money to buy a decent bow.

Well, if you are going to farm adn you wanna have a nice bow on your first char it's ok.
But if you just wanna level and not wanting to farm I wouldn't do it like that.
Nice sig btw!

thanks!
But even if you arent gonna farm, you can just buy at level 10-12 whatever weapon you are training your mastery in and go from there. It doesnt really matter what weapon you wanna end up as, starting as a bow means you use the least gold for the number of mobs you kill. Bow is fast and mobs dont usually touch you before they are dead. And if you stick to white or less mobs, you make some decent gold with drops and such. The strategy works for both ways.

Shouldn't you just gain around 200-400k (since it's a new server) then buy high crit items (except swords) and then stall over night overpriced? It worked for me... And now I'm rolling in it XD
