I was just wondering what the best way to make money is? ive been told that changing weapons into elements is quite good. I did this with a lvl 48 sword and i got over 500 lvl 5 and lvl 6 elements. How much are wind lvl 5 elements worth each?


Title and whole post re-written so it is not in caps. Next time i see a post all in caps from you it will be deleted instead-FFG

well to answer your question.

The best way to make money fast in the game is to trade, hands down
its less costly then turning items into elements. Just do a few 2* or 4*
trades (making sure you have enough back up to protect you) from
DW to Jangan. and you will make a lot of cash after about 5 to 6 trades.
and if you know the routes it can only take you 10-12 minutes a trade.

As for how much that wind element is worth...lol no idea, try to sell it
at an NPC, and what ever price they give you. is half of what the real
price is... (e.g. if you got say 10k for an item at the NPC, its really
worth 20k).

:D

Trades etc is far from the best way to make money these days, i'd daresay if you're really aiming on getting some more gold in your pockets, start trading items from stalls to players.

For example, when server is really laggy or when majority of people start their overnight stall in your server, run around like your pants are on fire and check each stall for cheap stuff, and sell for more.

In the beginning this will be hard as you will need to *study* the avarage prices, supply and demand. Once you get a grip of these, making 10m+ per day isnt hard at all.

Tip: spend alot of time in towns, always someone in desperate need of cash yelling "selling 42 sos 15m" etc.

Grinding, IMO, you can easilly make a good mil withen an hour of grinding at higher leveles (I know some people who made 100 mil+ farming at higher levels), and while trading you get killed poped/killled. Also with grinding you get experience/sp, kill two stones with one bird...I mean kill two birds with one stone LOL.

yea, trading is a waste of time unless you have 3-5 star. even then you will have to use a lot of pots, and will take a HUGE chance of getting robbed and losing money, satman seems to be wrong about a lot of things.


anyway, buying and re-selling is a GREAT way to earn money. and grinding too. peace.

I got 5mil a day buying 5th degree weapons for cheap,
destroying them and selling elements...
e.g. buy a sword lvl32 for 60k, destroy it for ~~4k and get about 500 elements
most element pieces on non-new servers are worth over 800 gold...
have fun :P
