Gold help

Post by kevv »

Ever since the event started I haven't been able to make any money since all my money came from rondoing 8d items with blues. Anyone have any tips to make money? I know buying and re-selling but the market can be random at times.

Thanks.

Get elixirs. If things on your server are like what I've been hearing on others and my own, inflation is MASSIVE. Weapon elixirs on Venus for instance have gone form 120-180k to about 180-250k.

I took that risk and ended up wasting 20m for 6 str stones to fail, I think I'll pass.

Str stones and wep elixirs sound like a good idea, both are in high demand right now. Thanks all :)

What i do is i use all my prot elixirs and str/int/dura/doging tablets and use it on gears that i get from drops. Using my own elements and pimping the gears. made a few hundred mils of that.minimun cost. And if i get like garm 75 hat and pimp it good i can get 40-50 mil from what most ppl sell to npc for 700k :)

well i have noticed its better to sell them separate, for example say you put a str stone on a lvl 77 chest piece and get str 4, you could have sold the stone for 4 mil and the chest plain for 4 mil but if you try to sell them together everyone wants it for 5-6 mil, but there is also bigger chances with that, what happens if you get str 1 or 2, you pretty much wasted a stone.

So why cant you continue rondoing 8d items with blues? If they arent selling like they were b4 the event, just keep doing it and save what you get.then when the event is over, start selling again. I rondo all my drops, wind2 4 fire2 and water4 still sell great. Btw, are there any other elements lvls 1-5 any one is aware of that sell well, at a decent price

alchemy is still the key, from elixirs to stones. problem is more people know so all cheap items to destroy will be gone fast.
if you are short on money and have low stalling time then make sure you stall everything close to your minimum profit price it will sell and keeping you alive.
if you got a second pc then stall the "rare" items on maximum profit price and add a couple of fast selling items for a normal price.

check the stall network you can usually find out what will sell.

get luck stones in the event hold on to them 3 weeks re-sell the 8D ones to all the people who wish they had gone +9 before. Find white weapons with nice crits + them to four and sell.
