    Wouldn`t call any of them favourite since they are boring, but if I must then farming SOT, and after that plain old merchanting, though I wanted to try farming card bosses, perhaps when next 2x arrives.

    I'm not much after coins atm, but if I need some I just do the 6 bh I can do a day and do some left-overs if I have. As for favorite, would depend on what you mean by that. I like TT most as it has the most change possible. If I really need coins, I take brim though.

    Caster nirvana. With a good squad, it's actually fun

    I don't merchant much so I mostly farm things but my time is limited when I have college in general. I'd say my favourite farming instance at the moment is Caster Nirvana (and it has been so for a while) but even that gets boring when you spam it during 2x. I like Nirvana too (because I run with friends or faction so it's fun) but I get tired of it halfway through the 2x.

    Farming Treasure Maps has also been fun to me. I like full Warsong and Delta but I guess those don't really count as farming instances.

    Warsong has made me 400m so far.

    Delta has made me 300m.

    Most people just don't have the inclination to farm those instances for money.

    +2 for Delta. I make some decent coin running that, and make chi stones to refill my genie to boot.

    Actually if I have time: Lunar.. Most ppl say "Fee makes it too expensive", but that are the ppl that do Lunar as BH and leave the Squat after Hounted Queen.. Actually a finished Lunar gives me around 3-7mil, depending on if I payed the whole entrance or just took over one instance from some lazy BH-Hunters :)

    Depends on your server and prices of the rewards. Delta has become a horrible farming place on my server for coins since fragments hit rock bottom and barely living at like 105k right now +/- and old book pages are profitable but not enough drop out of x2, and warsong...is just warsong. Mold drops/BH or no1 wants to go.

    I farm the Cube of Fate. I can run it 6 times per day with my 4 100+ toons plus 2 COF Directorate letters from Luminance. That's 3 mil+ a day for just pages of fate. Add to that 80K per golden box and 300K per plat box and it can be close to 4 mil a day. I get do-alls from DQ points so there's no expense there. It usually takes me less than 2 hours to make the 6 runs unless I run into a streak of bad luck. The 1 mil exp isn't shabby either. I may start running the extended cube for cogs, but for now I'm staying with the sure thing.

    I used to farm Cube of Fate a lot, especially when I needed to get Demon Parasitic Nova but I'm so sick of it right now that I don't want to step foot in there. I will have to go back to cube eventually though :( if I decide to opt for lvl103.

    I merchant, but my favorite way to make coin, is farming TT. I absolutely love running TT. It is still my favorite thing to do in game.

    I don't run delta to sell the mystical tome fragments. I run delta to get enough tome fragments to make a pan gu. I sell the pan gu. Old book page, gems, coin drops, all those are extra things i can spend on myself.

    Warsong i run for badges. I make 1 weapon i get 90~120m. I made 4 weapon for different people. I get to have fun with friends, and make money on the side, works out for me. I already have a stash full of molds for HA/LA/AA armour, and most weapons, i am always short on badges. I could sell things cheaper, but people who want things will seek you out and pay your price. I have seen people selling their badges for 300k~700k and getting frustrated with them, because no one is buying. People i deal with, know my prices and trust me, so it works out. This means doing 1~3 full warsong runs a day with a squad that takes 30~45 minutes per run. Even if the squad takes 1 hour or a bit more is fine, warsong is about fun, not run like a vana spam run. 6x7 = 42 badges a week, In 2 weeks you get 90~120m. In a month you get 180~240m. That is super easy money in my opinion.

    Before the question begin on warsong, your squad has weak dd, take a veno. If you have thoughts ideas about warsong or want to know what we are talking about, read this thread by DivineMight As a test, if you can kill the metal boss in under 30 seconds, all bosses will be fine, if you can kill the boss under 15 seconds, squad is good. If you can kill the metal boss in 5 seconds or less, squad is way too OP b:chuckle.

    Caster vana when I have talis
    Traditional vana during 2x
    Daily 100+ BH (turning chips into dice tickets n selling them at worst, 5 mil at best :D )
    Farming n selling herbs
    Merchanting things, but not anything that comes from packs or the cash shop. I like to sell lower-priced items that I can farm myself or that buy/sell for less than 5 mil each. One could say it takes longer to gather funds, but I'd rather have a steady flow of lower amounts of coins rather than waiting for a few big ticket items to sell. Plus it gives me more of a purpose to play when I see I need to farm certain things when they've sold, so I'm never bored or lack activities I need to do.

    But my favourite way to make coin is not to spend coin :3 Keep your expenses to armor/weapon repairs as much as possible and with just a little effort you can turn a profit each day. Admittedly some classes have a better time at that then others <.< but you do the best you can :3

    not necessarily stuck, but my 3 main options is to duo fc, becuase soloing it takes about 2hours+ , sell room for 1.5m and split
    2nd option is i can sell zhen log my 91 cleric and 81 seeker and make 2.5m /hour and split with a partner
    3rd option being Twilight temple b:shocked mostly i farm hook and thorn mats from TT60-70-then 80's and sell for a good 5-8m depending on sockets, shards/ refine yet since 2x its been tough b:surrender

    Gold trading all the way, when you have more then 30M, setting up a buy/sell offer 2 times a day can make alot. it only takes about 10 minutes to watch the prices and add the 2x2% fee, and make 7-12% profit without doing nothing... this is how i made my first 200M b:laugh
