yo, i just want to know what are the best methods of farming in this game? i constantly here around this place that its "easy to get coin" but how easy is it?

so here is my list of questions.

1) what places are the best farming spots to farm coin?

2) what is the best class to farm with? are sins good at farming?

3) what is the best level to start farming at x location?

and 4) how much money daily do u get from farming these locations?


also i already know about nirvana and all that. im mainly talking about farming spots BELOW level 100.

any help would be greatly appreciated thx =) i really want to play this game without having to buy gold.

    Well, :

    in the 85-93 range or so, there's the spiders near camp of intrepid if u are a physical class.

    in the 68-74 range or so, u can hit the thiefs east of sanctuary (physical type still)

    lvl 78-83, butterflies at lake of woe for a mage class (Easier as cleric cause u can purify yourself of poison.)

    Hope that helps, don't want to give all tips/tactics..
    Proud supporter of the new expansion. Sure it has it's share of bugs, like any games. But for a pure farmer/grinder, that's a whole lot of new mobs to go beat up b:chuckle

    -Farm mats near wall and sell near wine guy in arch.

    -Yes sins are great with farming.

    -I've seen low level noobs on mounts just farming for hours.

    -depends on your servers competition.

    But farming won't get your as far as merchanting.

    i should make myself clear. i cant solo harpy wraith for one and i was mainly talking about farming coin. i heard some ppl farm 10 mill coins in a day "EZ" and i want to know a good method of farming those coins.

    is it really all from merchanting? (buying low and selling high)? i guess ima have to research the economy on my server for that. but if thats the case what would be a good coin starting point to start buying low and selling high at? and what are the best items i should buy and resell?

    (this is on HT btw)

    Figure it out yourself. That's what the game is for. Playing.

    Merching will make 10 times more than farming. But no one said you cant do both.

    you can make hundreds of million of coin a week if you merchant well
    you can also lose if you merchant poorly, but someone with a fundamental understanding of the game economics make a ton merchanting

    its easily the best moneymaker in the game if done well

    I dont know whether you mean farming mats or grinding on mobs, but if its grinding mobs here my two cents:

    First off: I farmed normal mobs during most of my leveling, and its not a too fast coin maker. Without double drops i usually make around 150k netto in an hour (that is taken away the repair costs).
    Sins are poor farmer in earyl levels, but around 60-70 they really start to shine due to bloodpaint enabling endless grinding (aka no potting).

    Here some of my grinding spots, all pure melee mobs:

    lvl 73 Hooded Adalwolf near Village of the Lost
    lvl 75 Deepwood Hermits
    lvl 80 Chief Assassin on Nightscream Island. As a BM or Seeker you can do wonderfull AOE pulls here
    lvl 89 Araneid Cruelheart north of Sirry Wine Camp
    lvl92 Nivastok Shieldbearers east of Snowy Village

    Hope that helps a little bit...

    I can get 100-120 Hay a day at level 22. Generate ~2-4 genies as well. Keep the ones that go to 20/20, trash any others. Going to move to evolved Viperons at level 40 over Lost for Fruit. Grinding on a severely overgeared Archer.
    101 Sage Sin*/Archer
    100 Demon BM*/Barb
    96 Demon Cleric/Sage Seeker
    95 Demon Wiz/
    94 Sage Veno
    85 Psy/80 Mystic
    And a handful of other alts, all 79 and under.
    *Pre RB level

    Well, if you are able to, TT is always a good way to start off making money. Do several runs a day and if you get good drops, you can make a few million. That's enough to start out on merchanting as well. It's really easy to do that now that we can multi-client and keep a shop running at all times. Honestly, like ImNotFiveAPS said though, there is no reason not to do both.

    thx all for the replies. ima get on that. also what do u mean about generating 2-4 genies a week? u make alt chars for the genies and lvl them up by FFing or something then sell the really decent ones? that sounds interesting to.
