I've been wondering what class can generate the highest profit when training since right now getting money is slow for me. I mean at high levels, not low levels. Thanks for any comments. :]

Wizards or pure int spear nukers
Of course the char have to fight against mobs 6-10 lvls under the chars lvl.

Also, I would guess that farming money at higher lvls isn't that good as you find less drops. I don't know though, just my thought

A bard, get a bit of training, keep mp cycle on yourself and voila...hardly any mp usage.

Bard/cleric(never dies and has to go to town rarely).
Xbow/cleric(since you get lots of money with it, you can buy speed drugs).
Xbow/bard(you don't have to visit town often for mp, but you may have problems tanking a giant).
Full int spear nuker-cold,light,fire(they are good at lower levels[above 30], but hey won't get much gold at higher lvls[atleast i can't].

Have no area of attack and therefore kill slow
Xbow/bard(you don't have to visit town often for mp, but you may have problems tanking a giant).
Same

This is a great build for money farming

Remember, its not all about saving money on pots etc. Its about killing fast and by doing that, get lots of drops and gold

Get on a bit lower lvl mobs and a bard/cleric can 1hit them too. Then including mana cycle/RD/Bless etc they are way better than wiz/cleric or wiz/bard. Chinese nukers are mp monsters, can't make much profit with them even if you 1hit the mobs.

I'm a level 53 bard/cleric and I can get gold and drops pretty quickly. I use a wolf to finish off those I can't one-hit. I have been able to KS nukers with two hits while they can get one shot. I'm not sure if that trend will continue, but it's nice using hardly any pots at all!

Yeah, you're right.

However, if you meet a giant it will still take longer time than with a wizard/nuker

Endless discussion.

Go with whatever you like most I guess

No Chinese build, I tried gold farming with a chinese nuker at low lvls (30-40) and he used too many pots, may be different for higher levels though.

Wizzies will need LC/LT to really outdamage a bard, and that's dangerous at a giant. At lower lvl's atleast when you got bad gear. Nukers are out of the question cuz they use too much mp. Also during the time no giants are around a bard probably made enough kills to keep up with a wizard.

So so far I'm getting the notion that a bard subclass cleric is the best build for gold farming?

Again I agree, but wizards have stronger AOA (Area Of Attak) skills I guess and therefore might kill faster.

But yeah a bard/cleric would be quite awesome for goldfarming

Yes.
And that's gonna require some sp.
I don't know about bard, but wizz is good as a gold farmer after lv 40 and after some farming is done.
