I wonder, will i get so much money from making stones?

bytheway, i'd like to make dg4 stones. What stone is the best sellable stone? And what'S the price for that? I heard that it'S the STR stone.

Or should i wait until the deg5 stones? ( 3 levels) I heard from my guildmates that deg5 stones are really being looked for.

Pls answer a tell me how much money did you get from making/selling stones :)

i doubt that u can make much money of low lvl stones, but lv8 stones on the other hand :) you can buy a tab for like 3m and sell the stone for 5m, thats easy money but way to many ppl do it for it to be profitable anymore, but if you are going to do it, yes str stones make the most.

And what do you think about the price?

Stones make money cause people know how to gain tablets but some don't know how to make stones :D :) :P

Hi,

Well, I did sell 5th degree stones for a while, now I sell elements.

Strength stone lv. 5: 400-450k (Oasis)

Is making stones and selling themmore profitable than selling just elements?

I find people sell lvl 6 tablets for way to much. after you buy then sell stone, your left with little profit as the tablet cost half of the stone sale price.

Elements are easy'er to sell, and more profitable.

I don'T see too much element stalls on Red Sea server in Donwhang.
Do I need to go to hotan to sell my elements?

Any1 can make me a short element price guide ( lvl1-5 ) :roll:

Yes, most of the people sell elements in Hotan, because people there have more money and also need them.

Wind lvl2 - 2k > 3k per element
Wind lvl4 - 2k > 3k per element
Earth lvl8 - 1.5 > 2k per element

Don't know if other are worth stalling.

Simply, yes you make tons of money off of stones. I made 100M in three weeks off of buying tabs, making stones then selling stones.


P.S. Lvl 8 Str works best^.

Ehm. I'M talking about lvl4-5 stones :D
And i still don'T know that should i make lvl4 stones, or lvl up and make lvl5 ( as far as i know around lvl38 people start using alchemy seriously, and that'S why i think deg5 stones are more sellable )

Kori, get 5m, go to hotan, buy a str tab and then buy the elements. Make the stone, sell for 6m, w00t 1m made.

Note that I am just being general, it make cost more or less than what I said^ and you also may charge more or less. Note that I'm on Troy.

I am stalling off my gear cos as some of you know i have quit and last night i stalled 800 water lvl 8 for 1.6m and 3 str stones lvl 8 for 4m each.

They all sold.

Then i rondo'ed some of my old stuff and got a lvl 6 str stone with 5% and lucky stone lvl 7 and hundreds of wind lvl 2. I think about 900. Thats easily 1.8m.

To answer your question, Yes. Selling stones and elements makes money, but if you can get about 10 mill then go into hotan and invest in the d7/d8 market.

A lvl 7 stone of str with 10% easily sells for 1m on alps and lvl 8 with 10% easily for 4m.

That lucky stone you got would also bring in a hell of a price!

I just like to train for insane amounts of alch mats, then rondo them and sell elements at lowest price, and I'm happy with the money I make.. Considering im still under level 20 and allready have 1.2 mil. I don't even know if that's half decent but I get what I want, until I'm a high level that is, lol.

If you really need the gold I would say make stones and sell them as stones. If you dont need the gold atm, save them up for you final gear and add it to your own gear.

I have made several millions selling stones so far and it still does me good. I do 6th 7th and 8th degree stones mostly and it works out pretty good. (ok its not several its several hundreds...)

I'd love to do this. My problem is, I don't have a large element collection. It's taking a while to build up my element collection through killing mobs and rhondoing the alchemy items. I could buy elements, but that would defeat the purpose of making money selling stones.

I normally just collect some elements (especially wind2 and wind4) and sell them overnight to make money. I'm wondering if I'd have better luck just keeping the elements all the way until I hit like lvl 70+ and then start building stones to sell... I just never seem to get enough elements to make more than 1 or 2 stones at a time.

Ehm guys, maybe i didn'T say that i only have 500k :D

So i will not collect 5 million for tablets / elements etc.
I HAVE 500k AND I ASK THAT SHOULD I MAKE/SELL DGR4,DRG5 STONES OR SELL ELEMENTS, AND FOR WHAT PRICE . CAN YOU UNDERSTAND MY QUESTION????? I HAVE NO MILLIONS, I WANT TO HAVE MILLIONS... :banghead:

ah, i'M so angry today, sorry :cry:
