    A successful gamma run will give you 500k~ish profit, possibly 3mil+ if you get some immaculates. You can also put exp into a genie then sell the genie(a 61+ LP genie goes for around 4mil+ on sanctuary). If you don't mind your friends outleveling you, you can max all your skills out.

    I left gamma as soon as I could, Blade Tempest was the main skill I leveled(Lv.9), I got a few that I liked the look of such as hailstorm. Also got a few that I wanted to test, finding out that crown of flame and pitfall are incredibly useless.

    Me, I can actually make decent money grinding on Dazzle wings and such, but I'm just too lazy... So I started a Barb.. can't wait to get his AOE up and then make some real money and charge for tanking bosses... Mean, but hey.. it pays the bills.b:victory

    We earn money by selling Blemished gems in our catshops and passing them off as Beautiful.


    EDIT: At least that's what happens in our server...

    Erm, right... anyway... its hard at your level to make money. Just do quest do some grinding go level, and from 60+ grinding drops can give you a good amount of money. At your level, well grinding is the only thing you can do to make money.

    ya 60 here and I don't even have pyrogram/divine pyro up past level 1 because i'm so poor. b:shocked
    I had to compromise and get the more functional spells (gush/SS/stone rain/essential sutra/err also BIDS but it looks sooo nice~ b:bye)

    also looks like the old 1 hour zhenning session might be out of the question right now seeing as how guardian and spirit charm prices are through the roof.
    maybe we could do 10 minute zhen sessions with meditation and apoth pots in between? xD

    or maybe we could do the OP suggestion of getting one AOE and a bunch of mobs that are weak enough to kill in 1 hit. (T.T') BIDS level 1 does half the life of mobs like 7 levels lower then me b:chuckle

    i know it was stated alot earlier in the thread but makin a veno alt is a great way to make money. once u get the veno to lvl 20 catch snow hares. each one sells for as low as 50k and they spawn once every hour with little or no people there to tame it. that alone isnt to much money but if you do that all day (5-10 hours) it really adds up. when u add that to anything made while mat farming or grinding its quite a haul ^_^

    You haven't leveled Pyro or D.Pyro? AT ALL?

    What the hell are you buying?
    Bladestorm lets you spin around like a carnival ride and do damage. Not using it is almost like having a move called Confetti Rocket Power Leap and saving it for "emergencies"

    don't remember the name of that herb but looks like weed for sure.
    Maybe the Hamsta' is on a roll.

    Well , on topic, I make about 1 mil in 1.5h of play every day. Sometimes 1.3-1.4 mils, depends on luck and about 400k xp and 80k sp during that time too. That's cash after all expenses.

    Have you looked in City of the Lost lately, there are too many ppl trying to sell Snow Hares, that it is not a viable way to make cash.

    There is always someone trying to sell Snow Hares...

    Grinding seems to be the way to go to consistantly make cash.

    I suppose you could CatShop the DQ items, but there are more ppl doing that than selling Snow Hares... lol

    It is tough for Wizards, cuz we need Pots and Powders, well that is, if you don't run with a Cleric in tow. =)

    part of it is doing cube every day and selling the reward box for finishing it for 100k. + I almos always hit the 1mil or 5 mil box room. If not that, I hit the chips room (today I came out with 10 chips + 5 mil box, yesterday I had 5 chips and the 1 mil box). I sell the 1 mil box for 300-350k and the 5 mil box for 550-600k.
    Average time to run the cube: 20 min.
    The second part all I say is look around what ppl need every single day. Provide that service and u will make money. OFC, this is the cash at lvl 88, at 7x u will make less, but expenses are less also.

    Other tips:
    Don't use a MP charm. Apothecary is the easiest skill to lvl. Gather herbs, make MP restore potions( not that 50 or 100MP/sec for 10 min, those are absolutely not worth it, make the 6k/30sec or 9k/30 sec ones - I have around 30 9k ones at me at all times, only using them in TT/TW after death). Always double spark when u can to regen mana, max your wellspring quaff (or raise it to a decent lvl) to have the maximum possible mana pool, water shield always on. I can grind about 20 min ( the quests I have at this lvl) without having mana problems. After 20 min just grab a coffee or a beer while meditating for 30 sec and you're good to go for another 20 min.
    Once I hit 89 and get the tripple spark + chi skill bye bye mana restore pots.

    Good Advice... I will try the 6k/9k ones and see if it makes a difference...

    Hopefully HT is back up by the time I get home... =)

    yeah , for venos those pots are even better, cause with soul transfusion u can basically replenish your HP. That's basically a 300HP/sec recovery ... 0_o. Pop one of those 9k pots and u get both HP and MP refilled.
    Man, I need to play my alt veno more .... lol. Poor soul is only lvl 25.
