Silkroad Online Forums

I have been struggling with gold, but I mean, I really dont wanna pay real money to buy gold from the third party especially when gold farmer are really annoy. I got lots tips of how to make gold from friends on silkroad, but it just seems not enough to afford expensive taxi and sos weapon. I know some people made about 300mil in 1 month. I just dont know how can that happens to me.

Here is what I know.
1. people said to destroy the weapon and protector into elements and then sell them in the stall network. however, i've been doing it for a week, i really dont see a huge demand for it. I have elements from lv1-lv5, nobody really buy them.
2. buy low sell high. elixir is a good example. cuz i get elixir cheaper in donwhang, and sell them more expensive in hotan. but i can only find cheap ones once a while, not to mention i only make 150k profit of it. i guess it's not that bad, but it does take a while to find people sell them at low price.
3. trading. 1 star trading. 50k for one trip. total not worth it. i tried 2stars, total got owned. really dont wanna try again until higher level.
4. taxi other people. i mean, im really jealous of those high levels who can give other people taxi. im only lv43, so, cant really do much about plvl others.
5. i saw some idea of making a new char and go to roc. mountain to drop low level items around bots till they have full inventory. and just take their high level drop. it just sounds unrealistic to me since u have to wait a long time till those drops dont belong to the bot anymore. never tried before, and maybe going to.
6. scam? not an option.

so, seriously, is there any other ways to make gold quickly???

Well, get yourself to an higher level and give powerlvl.
You can also do more dangerous trades , and if you're a hunter you can protect 5*, or if you're a trader you can hire a high lvl hunter.

any tips on how to hire hunter for5* ?

coz they dont really seem interested ... ..... bussy lvl90's

Easy first of all elements 1-5 lvl dont sell much. 6-9th do! Earth 9th is expensive! Now u thinking how do i get earth 9th? Easy get cheap ass equips 9D in hotan for like a mil you get like 600 of each element in 9D mostly. Weapons give u the most. Next step make 8D and 9D stones. I dont do it on Venus but when i was on Pluto I easily made 30-40mil a day easy.

Thanks. I think that would be really helpful. but are u saying that i should sell the element, or the magic stone? if im selling the magic stone, i have to get 9d tablet. and where can i get them? stall network?
and how much a 9d stone usually sell for?

5*? im scared already. how much profit would a trader make in 5* trading? and how much i have to pay to the hunter normally? sorry, im pretty much a noob regarding jobs....

One of the best ways of getting money is to grind on mobs lower level than yourself. Each mob killed is a gold drop and possibility of an item drop and you get more gold out of 3 very fast killed monsters than 1 difficult to kill monster in the same amount of time.
It's basically what gold bots are doing.

30-40 mil a day?
That just seems too much

A 5* on camel from constanz to samarkand gives around 1 mio gold (310 % profit). Hunters are paid through the job system. When you sell your stuff as trader there is a commission fee taken from your goods and put in a pool. That pool is divided after inspection under the hunters, best hunter of the week gets most.

the amount of money you make is proportional to the level you are. So the higher your level, the more money you will make.

1. Not all elements are wanted or usefull, and hotan is the only real place to hope to sell them with any speed
2. Elixirs you gota sell in mass, and buy low sell high for gears you gota learn prices they will sell at, and how high the demand for them is, like cleric rods that are good are in low demand cause most people wont' spend alot of money on their subclass, and don't sell hi, sell medium and you'll sell faster if you're not patient enough
3.Hire a hunter
4.Meh don't even worry about taxi's for a good while, if you do you can probally do crab taxi's, and charge like 25 k an hour, you might gain like 150 k an hour if you fill up
5.Some bots are set wrong and they stop picking up gold too, how ever grab alchemy drops, a mate of mine goes on a low lvl noob every time shaitain spawns to get alchemy drops/gold/gear, he some times traces around full bots to get alchemy drops, and if you're lucky enough for gear to drop all the better
6. good don't scam its like bad and stuff


edit my stall methods better imployed by my mate Anti, who i taught my meathods turned 500k into 50m and full sox set in a matter of only 1 month, i mean professional stallers can gain way more faster, but you know thats still not that shabby, and when he gets to hotan level he'll be more then ready to invest into the market and get large pay offs,i taught him my methods he was just better at them lol... of course i've been jumping markets alot to experiment, for me i find the easiest market to work with is the DW sox market

if you got enough money, look in stall network and buy any d5 weapons you can find that are on sale less then 100k, resell for like 150 to 250, this is an easy way to get a amount of gold that you can use to invest in cheap sox, and then for the time you're in dw you should have at least 20 m by the time you're lvl 40 doing this easily

more edit, dont' npc drops either, if you are running low on sox to stick in your stall cause you dind't find any cheap enough to make a good enough profit from, throw in some drops, do this when you go to work/school/sleep that helps too, sure 150k from a weapon may not seam like much but thats 3 times what the npc would pay you for the d5 weapon

Foudre is right, you can have a lot of benefits from stalling, all you need is to stay a couple of hours on the game while afk and in your stall or make an arrangement with someone of the guild. It also depends of your server because you can't make money with lower level stuff on an old server.

For new servers:
Weapons sell good so keep all drops with nice blues on it and stall them. Especially the intermediary ranges (so not the 8 16 24 but the in betweens) are in demand. Put in other stuff you dropped and before open your stall check through stall network the elixirs, perhaps there is someone selling under value. Buy them and resell immediately. I NPC what isn't sold after a couple of hours.

Gold grinding by killing mobs of lower level is very effective too, with a grab pet and a bit higher level you can get 1 mio per day that way. I pick up everything and just drop the bolts and arrows from time to time with my ability inactive and move on the map.

And I'm so lucky that the guild provides help with 5* ^^

Thanks a lot, everybody. Im making a good amount of gold now.

This made me rich one time.
cause u get 2 way to get money in this way

1.- Gold from players who want to buy your taxi (and if your taxi is good, fas killin' etc) they'll buy more hours.
2.- Since u are killin mobs for taxis, also u get drops from mobs and those drops u can stall them to get even more gold

Indeed ^_^"

Go to Dead Ravine and grind. Those mobs drop really good element that gives you alot wind2. Sell in Hotan.

can somebody tell me good place in venus where is allot of bots that don't pick gold and stuff and i exsuely didn't understand which way is best and which one is fastest
