So after I leveled my mage to 60 I found it pretty easy to camp out gear or cash to twink my rogue. I plan on mostly focusing on my rogue until velious comes out, and I have plenty of cash to throw at whatever I want, but by the time I get this guy to 60 I'll be pretty broke after buying resist gear and other fun shit. I'm just wondering if there is a way to cushion the fall while playing this toon. Obviously I can't camp droga or ac like I did religiously on the mage for lots of easy cash, so how do most melee make decent money?

If you want to play the melee and make money at the same time you probably have a few options:

1) Join a group and do a camp that drops high value loot and win a roll. Howling Stones, Seb Crypt or King, etc.
2) Solo camp stuff that cons light blue or green. There are still good value drops from mobs that are lower level in mistmore, guk, permafrost, some individual outdoor mobs that drop high dollar loots.
3) Repeat the rogue epic to sell MQ's

At lower level you are mostly soloing for exp I wouldn't worry about money. Let your mage make the money to buy the rogue's stuff.

Rogue will get invited to crypt / hs / king / ?? Much more than the mage. You'll also be making plat as you level your rogue, just from winning drops in groups.

Don't buy a heiro cloak. You'll probably win one. I won 2 on my rogue while leveling and transferred them to other chars.

Your mage can supply the most import thing (the pp to MQ a ridiculously cheap epic).

After that all ya really gotta do is get the rogue to 50+ ASAP and then the high money items will just naturally drop as you xp and eventually you'll win some of them.

Considering your rogue is a twink, you should have littlee problems with this http://wiki.project1999.com/Ultimate_Leveling_While_Making_Money_Guide
