I understand there's a platinum/leveling guide on this site, but a lot of the recommendations are sadly beneficial for evil races.
So, I'm wondering what recommendations there are for farming some plat for a level 27 Shaman, soloing.
Ideally I'd be higher level, I know, but I need money for spells and alchemy.
Thanks in advanced for you help and comments!

The best way to make plat is to make more levels.
thex dagger quests resell rather well, i made a few thousand selling them already to guilds who are stocking up before quest gets cut from game.
lvl 8 you can solo Recfek Shralok in Kithicor, the lower level version (he's only lvl 11 in KF), shralok packs sell nicely as well

So helpful!
you can also make a lvl 1 halfling, head over to high pass keep and see about looting guard corpses. i was surprised to see so many untouched, i made about 300p in an hour selling the swords late last night

I think that's against the rules

I've been avoiding doing this, but might actually consider it

I mean... it's not a joke. You can work hard to make a few plat now, or you can pop out another 8 more levels and /list a mana stone and sell it for 10kpp or some shit.

At 27 I would be trying to group Goblins in HHK. You can likly make 1kpp-2kpp while leveling there form 27-mid 30s

As long as you don't mind going without one since stuff on a /list is 1 per character so if you get a manastone on a character you won't be able to get a 2nd 1 on that character.

Yeah that's incorrect.
Manastone: Level 35, Distance 200, Z Distance 30, 1 Week Lockout.
...
Lockouts are indicated above, which means that once you have been granted an item from a /list, you cannot rejoin the same list for that period of time on that character.

I have zero desire to camp a spot for 3 days straight lol I know wild for someone who goes out of their way to post on a forum dedicated to a game that was popular 20 years ago

You could always say bah gonna delete that character and level another 1 but it's another hassle. Not sure how long it's gonna take you to reach level 35 1 more time.

I never had any interest in killing guards too. I always thought it was a pvp thing.Seems to me it gonna hurt too much faction to bother with it.I will probably be call a carebear for telling you that but I got thick skin.

In your 30s most mobs drop FScweapons which vendor super well. Splitpaw comes to mind.

You arent blocked from joining the list for the same item once you get it forever, it is only a lockout which means once that is up you can jump back on the manastone list with the same character.

My main response is play the game for your upgrades. It's silly too grind plat and buy upgrades when you can get the upgrades by playing.

It's a one week lockout. You could literally /list on a manastone once a week for seven months if you wanted to.

If you like to RP you can still do guards: Troll guards are great plat when you get high enough for them.
But really:
The best way to make plat is to make more levels.
is absolutely true. That's just how the original devs made the game.

Though one thing I always found funny is it’s usually easier to make vendor money for level 1-3 than when you hit 4-8 range going from decaying skellies/orc pawns/gnoll pups to bears/cats/snakes etc. I usually still kill every skelly I see after they green out just to afford level 8 spells.

Go to a newbie zone in the off-hours so you don't piss people off. SoW yourself and run around and pick up every decaying skeleton you see. Use a shit weapon or hands to aggro them so you don't one-shot them. When you have like 20, stop and AOE the lot with Infectious Cloud. Loot all and repeat every 2 mins and 40 seconds. Vendor everything, sell bone chips in EC tunnel.
Only get enough for your spells. Forget Alchemy. It's a giant money drain at your level and people can't afford your potions yet anyway and it's not like you need the potions yourself. After you have enough plat for spells, concentrate on getting to 34 rather than farming plat. Once you hit your mid-30s, farming becomes a LOT easier.
edit: forgot about the AOE limit, I don't have casters on p99. So if that doesn't work you can whack em down one by one like my SK does.

Try casic thule , Sol A, or Splitpaw, all drop fine steel, or camp the centaurs in south K , they drop bronze and you can sell there . no faction hit killing them
