The extended Thanksgiving Event with all the job suits ruined the economy. I started a new char during the event and had made almost 20 mil by lvl24.. mostly from NPC'd job suits.

Last char I barely had 1 mil by that level.

My recommendation is to only stall blue or +'d items that will sell for a decent price and break everything else. Sell the elements or use them to make/sell stones.

When some guy is spamming he needs wind2 and will pay 2k each you'll be happy you've saved a lot of them =]

The economy should slowly recover but I doubt we'll ever see 180k weapon elixers again..

You buy & resell on Venice? How? Prices are always outrageous imo. These ppl leave no room for a resell.


Yes i do.
But we'v got like 10+ hardcore buyer sellers atm so its kinda hard to find deals nowadays.
My best deals are from the goldbotter's stalls. >.< They sell the things 1/3 of the going price.
Sometimes i find noobs selling for cheap. Ive bought a lvl 16 sos bow for 18k once. ^^
And the third ppl selling cheap is those who think the prices is what they were for a looong time ago.
Ive bought 2 lvl 16 som bows for 29m, resell'd one for 58m, using the other.

Thats how it works. :wink:

Buy low sell high.

Seriously, you can make one mil in an instant, all you have to do is have the patience to look around and search for a cheap sos (or anything) and then sell it at a higher price.

And with all the pandora boxes selling at 400k and stuff, you'll have heaps of money in no time at all :D

Just make sure you sell your elements and you'll have your mill in no time. When you get there:

Once there was a guy selling event job suits for 400k. So buying his wares and stuffing 'em all to npc had made someone a profit. I guess it says everything. Too bad i guess he was one of the kind.

events work for me :)
as soon as I have over 500k I put what's more than 500k in storage. I sell used protector sets with much + int. There are always characters who are being pimped by their guild/previous character which buy my stall in a second.
I save up all my elixers, when I find an item with lucky/immortal I put them on it and I usually get +3 easy.

The best way to earn money is to buy a weapon with good % ( 60 + ) and then +3/5 it.
You will make insane amounts. I bought a level 35 spear with lucky/immortal etc for 125k. Made it +3 and I already have an offer of 1.2m, but I'm gonna make this baby +7 :X

Weapons with +3 and good crit are top sellers. +5 is already to difficult to make and not so worthy to risk on non-SoS weapon. I once failed 16 times in a row while making +6, and had to stay at +5. Usually it takes only 3 weapon elixirs to make to +3. Oh and most ppl still look only at blues, crit and enhancement, althought stall label says "Spear for nuker mag +many%"
