A Cleric guide to make some coin ( for the poor people )

I was lucky to start off with whatever my BM had saved up before I switched to my Cleric as main. But yes, in general this is one of the most expensive classes mainly because of the costs to keep your MP up when you are leveling and whatever. But it's not impossible to make some coins on it, if not quite some of it even if it's your main. Note : this is only for the non-rich people playing.

First of all, it's nice if things go faster but you can't rotate the entire world in a second. Don't be bothered by meditating, just go do something else while you do it, it will save you a lot of coins and with a MP powder activated it will go quite fast to reach full MP. With maxed Celestial guardian seal it won't take as long to get full MP. It is quite a costly skill but will pay off in the end ( it shines when you are soloing and meditating or not doing anything )

Our biggest coin sink is pots, a lot of pots. I rarely buy them and usually rely on MP powders, so herbs are your best and cheapest friend. Depending on if im just solo questions or in a FB/TT/RB I will buy pots accordingly. The low ( cheapests and reasonable ) pots for solo, and the mid/high pots for the other instances depending on your role. The recover x MP over 30 second powders are your best friend before putting up a RB or BB or in the air/water with low MP.

If you have enough space in your safe collect all the possible mat drops from mobs and whatever you can harvest. Depending on the selling price, some will be worth more than others so you have to set your priorities and look at the market. The more you level up, the better priced mats you will get, so at a given time you will have to replace one of your safe slots with a higher and better selling material/herb. I personally never bothered with filling my safe up with DQ ( dragon quest ) items, but whatever floats your boat. DQ items over time will bring in quite some coins even if you only sell it to NPC's. Whenever I have enough spare coin I buy safe extension stones, they are essential and guarantee more coins in the future, although it needs time to pay off. If you are not familiar with the safe extension stone quest from the banker, the same banker can complete your quest with a stone in your inventory, regardless of which banker the awarder might be.

The biggest part of my income comes from the ultimate substance materials ; anthracite, refined steel, rubstone powder and fine lumber. Try to grab the other high mats like high-grade lumber, corundum powder, charcoal and steel alloy as well. http://www.pwmap.ru/pwi/ there is a nice map of where the resources are located, although the type you are looking for might be in a different location than on the map, but nonetheless something will be there for you. Just get accustomed to a regular route and maybe play PW windowed and watch something in between the mines/herbs to keep up the spirit, unless you are very determined. I also use auction a lot to sell herbs I don't use, drops or at times some snow hare eggs I tame on my low level veno ( it's the only reason she exists ) Regarding herbs : put some research into which herbs will probably be most demanded and focus on them instead of the others, unless you have the space for them. TT ( Twilight Temple ) runs can be worth it as well if the materials drop that you are looking for.

I tried soloing FB 29 at around 67 or so and it's doable, you could try that for possible mold and item drops, but you probably need quite a few runs for it to pay off, and it's usually is a waste of pots/powders. Depending on how many pots/powders you have you could offer your "help" in BH's for possible drops you might get.

Although I try to get as much coin as I can get, don't let people wait for you for like 10-15mins just to save a few thousand of coins.. I find leveling important, but coins are equally if not more important. If you are not rich, don't bother to use coin to get more EXP, period ( Crazy stone being an exception if it's affordable ) But whenever you have the time, don't use the x thousand coins teleport and just fly.

And finally about the skills, of course a few skills are worth maxing at your level depending on which type of Cleric you want to be ( support or full attack ) But if you are low on coin I suggest you put your time into making more coin instead of leveling it, life isn't always fun so neither are games, just take your time to collect some coins and be patient.

This is my experience so far, and I have lvl 4 BS, nearly lvl 4 tailor and lvl 4 apothecary with a home-made TT70 weapon which I bought all the mats for and I have 3.2mil in my safe. Also, I almost never buy equipment unless it's really, really worth it. So far I only bought one piece except for my tt60 weapon dude to insuffcient funds. All my necessary skills as a support Cleric are maxed for solo heal that is, but it only takes 1-2 seconds to switch to another target to "save" On a side note : a person with very low hp can only be saved by wellspring surge casted once or twice and then stack ironheart. My other support skills are, purify lvl 7, revive lvl 10, stream of rejuvenation lvl 1, chromatic healing beam lvl 1, all the squad buffs, Heaven's wrath and Regeneration Aura, blessing of the purehearted lvl 1 ( Chi builder ) The "offensive" skills are like this : Cyclone lvl10 , plume shot lvl10 , wield thunder lvl 4, Razor Feathers lvl 8, tempest level 1. Elemental seal lvl 5, dimensional seal lvl 1, silent and chromatic seal at lvl 1, metal mastery at 5 and the not-fitting-in-this-list flight mastery at 10 to be cheap.

So far for my little noob guide, don't be offended I'm a noob as well but I try to learn. Just wanted to share this with people who have Cleric as their main character and to show that you can make quite some coin if you put the effort into it.
