Making money through selling elements?

[DrunkenAngel]

I try to gain some gold from this method. However, it just seems some elements dont have the demand for it. My question is, what elements at what lvs tend to have the most demand so i can sell it fast? And how much do they sell for?

I dunno how your server is.

applies to 7d and higher:
defuse weapons with blues, sell the stones, use the elements to make 9d stones(9d stones only), sell those stones, sell extra elements
add steady to weapons with no blues, to make it blue, then defuse it, sell the stones, use the elements to make 9d stones(9d stones only), sell those stones, sell extra elements
sell all rings, defensive gear, and shields regardless of blue

or use the stones you get from defusing weapons and pimp out another item, usually weapon makes the best profit.

applies to 6d and lower:
save all your elixirs for 9d, it is not worth to + low level items, unless its sox
use the items you find for yourself, reducing the need to buy items
sell the items you can't use, or dont need

pick up materials from the monsters you fight, and sell them -

Most in demand are the low level elements needed for D8 and D9 str and int stones. Wind 2/3 and fire 2/3.

If you want a list of the quantities needed for each stone and a list of the mobs that drop specific elements you can check out mmosite.

Grind on green mobs
get a lot of drops
destroy them with rondo
then keep elements for personal pimping or sell
and you get pure profit if you count out destroyer rondo

Thats what I am about to do when I complete my Yeti quest
