I am a level 66 cleric who needs help making coins. I grind petalii but the drop rates are horrible, I always get coins and I also play catshop and AH to make profit but sometimes its not enough. I need to get coins to get my tt70 gear. Can someone give me tips about money making with a cleric?

    If you're a cleric, and have the time to spare, go through the TTs required to get the materials instead of buying them. As a cleric, you get picks on drops right after the subber and tank usually, which means you can still probably nab a few of the ones you need each time through (Or just find a group of friends willing to spam the bosses you need for your stuff).

    With that said, I haven't technically answered your question... tbh, I really have no idea how I make any money whatsoever. It just happens and I'm like "Oh hey, I've got a little coin...-spend-"

    But for your level, I think Minions of Alucard in the northern part of the Swamp of the Wraiths shouldn't be too hard to kill, and they have an excellent drop rate until you outlevel them imo.

    And if your death means the survival of the squad as a whole,
    Well...I'll see you in hell...

    TT runs are your best friend. Do them till it drives you insane. First of all, like Sralyn said, you have a decent pick on mats. So you can get your armor together pretty fast. After that, just sell the mats you don't need.

    "Bollocks - a guy that will always point out to some1s nonsense and generally indicate contempt for a certain task, subject or opinion. A balancing force and more often then not, a voice of reason around thees parts. There is also paradox in that being his cleric name, as he likes to put it "useless char", while he is one of the best clerics on the server in PvP and PvE imo."

    Usual squad consists of 1-2 clerics (2 for the harder TTs, or if one cleric is fail), a tank (usually either a barb, or a Herc Veno), a puller (veno or any other class that's willing to burn off a lot of stamina on a zeal genie), and whatever DDs the cat dragged in. Venos being the best of the DDs because their pets do not suffer the damage reduction from fighting the ? level bosses, which makes things go by much faster.

    If you go into the instance lobby, there are 3 doors, or acts. The first one is what you would consider TT1, the second; TT2, and the third; TT3. Once inside your preferred door, there are 3 different modes, or "scenes" to play on. this is where the "-x" comes from.

    So if you go in the first door, and pick the first scene, that's TT1-1.

    Each act is a completely different instance, and each scene is a different difficulty (higher scenes also have more bosses sometimes).

    Idk on what server you are, but if it's one of the old ones.
    -farm TT's for gear
    -farm mats for coins
    -grind for coins

    ~Farming TT's for coins is not a best option anymore. In ~2h what you spend in a TT just to maybe get something of value, on average you make more by simply farming mats or even grinding b:bye

    In addition to what other people posted above: find a herc veno that wants to do TT runs in squad mode with just 2 people. A herc veno at 73+ (83 if possible) can duo TT1-1, 1-2, 1-3 (minus drum boss and soulbanisher) with a cleric, provided you have enough MP food/charm to keep BB up for drum boss + soul banishers.

    Drums, and ___ armors of gold will be your primary source of coins when you sell them; other drops are bleh...

    If the herc veno has decent channeling gear and is 80-83+, you can also try doing 2-1s and 2-2s, skipping Forshura. *Note on the 2-2 bosses that doesn't AoE, you might consider RB'ing for the veno, giant ape hits hard Q_Q.

    Keep in mind I don't suggest doing the 2-x until you're a bit higher level, in the mean time, just stick to 1-x.
