Everyone else is richer than me.

[Encroaching Death]

How do you people make money?

I've been killing guards, farming Goblin earrings, teleporting folks, etc.

I only have a measly 40k saved up.

How do you nerds make enough for a Earth Staff or a Z-Heart even?

5HP/tick Regen for 200k? Fuck you.

I should be given anything I think I deserve without working for it.

Oh, you have friends and you're able to save enough DKP for an AoN to sell?

Fuck off. IT"S TIME FOR A COMMUNIST REVOLVUTION.

SPREAD THAT WEALTH.

Take that jacket off. It's mine now. Oh those are fresh Jordans. MINE NOW.

Be Enchanter and no life certain camps and get lucky, or just join a top guild and buy expensive stuff with DKP to sell. Camping raw plat is super slow and not worth the time investment.

Thank you for sincerely posting a solution.

raid then sell the loot in ec

[magnetaress]

Play for like 3 years straight. Servers been up what 10 years? so ya ppl be rich just farming gobbo camps in LS x 10 years == at least 1 mil pp

(there should be "economic collapses" in game determined by RNG when the goblin FTX goes down and everyones plat gets reset to zero or some random amount between 0 and what they initially had weighted towards zero so that ppl with less plat end up with more plat after the economy collapsees and resets than the ppl who started out with more plat)

This would be a blessing from G-d upon this community. And putting it in the program and not determined by a man makes it come directly from G-d.

Kobolds should rob the bank(s). Brave adventurers must stop them before they steal it all!

Also each city should have its own bank.

I'm braindead and automatically assume all raid loot is NODROP.

Real life is even worse. That house my Dad bought right out of college for engineering is now $800,000. You would need 3 or 4 times a staring engineers pay to buy that today.
When he was in college a company paid him money to agree to accept a job after graduation.

I agree on the housing fuckery but hiring bonuses are very much a thing now in the labor shortage, as are referral bonuses

Shoot our agency isn’t rich but they were offering like $3k to anyone who referred someone who got hired and like $10k (5 initially then 5 after like a few months) to anyone who was hired on

Some places will also pay for your education (typically graduate school) assuming you sign a contract to work for x years after and not just bail on them

[unsunghero]

To ED, you got way more than I do

My secrets: overpaying for almost everything, buying incredibly minor stat gains rather than functional items like gazugi ring, offering fair port tips (50p), and almost never logging in

The post was tongue-in-cheek (I swear...), but yeah, I think my issue is I tend to spread my funds around to different alts rather than focus it into one main character.

I'm too ADD to do that though. I get bored way too fast if I just play one class.

[Videri]

OP, people with six-digit plat are people who either regularly farm dungeons on their enc/nec/shm/druid*, or regularly play the tunnelquest game in EC and flip items, or both. They're the type of people who farm multiple fungi tunics, hierophant's cloaks, manastones, Holgresh beads, etc etc. Or, as some have said, selling raid loot. I, though a colossal nerd, am also not such a player.

*: yes druid - they can solo farm in Kedge Keep and Siren's Grotto to great effect

[Raj]

High levels druids and wizards can farm Jboots MQs like nobody's business. It's a bit tedious but the OOT AC camp is also very decent exp like 44 - 53ish over time if you're comfortable w a very semi afk camp while doing other stuff on your computer or working around the house with your 5 or 5.5min timer set on your phone after you down a PH. :cool:

Lots of other casters can do this too but being able to port yourself to SRO shortly before 9pm game time and porting all over the world to check shadow mans for rapiers, then being able to port both yourself and others close to Rathe mtns/Hasten to finish their "quest" makes wizard/druid best at this hustle.

[Valakut]

go get a job at mcdonalds i think they are hiring and you will make a lot of money

Anyone else remember back like 2012 when so many of us were using macroquest that the staff couldn't ban everyone or they wouldn't have a server anymore, so they stripped all offending accounts of all coin and took 10% xp from each toon on the account.

I remember, i had alot of plat =\

My dad got his job with a high school diploma. While he was still working there, if I were to apply to the same company for the same job, they wanted a high specialized degree in radar technology, as well as military service because you were required to have a security clearance. Ironically the same job in 2022 pays less than it did in the 1990s despite the fact that it's much harder to get the same job. It kind of blows my mind.

thread is about eq riches if u are a loser irl stfu

[ragontx]

Retired+freetime= big plat on p99 !! LOL, or at least that is the way I'm envisioning my fast-approaching retirement date lol ... until then ...plat farming sucks !!

[Encroaching Death]

Everyone has like 10+ Fungi Tunics for all their alts.

They probably 4 or 5 sitting in a bank somewhere.

Probably 300 or 200 Manastones, Elder Beads galore...multiple DE masks and AoNs.

The average Blue player probably has 1,000,000,000 in the bank.

Bunch of Bill Gates and Elon Musks running around.

Probably pay 7p for a port.

I want money for nothing and chicks for free, dammit

When the dementia kicks in and each time you play is like reading your favourite book again for the first time!

Play the game for a decade.

lol ive been on the server since '13, so closing in on a decade.


still poor. if I liquidated everything I had, I might have around 100-140k.
not that i'm complaining! thats what playing this game casual gets you.
I'm having fun tho and I think thats whats most important.


...although now that im sham is closing into late levels the cost of his spells and epic are certainly daunting. at least I wont run out of shit to do for a while in game lol.

[Evia]

sorry -- wanted to add that id be semi rich if I was smart and accepted the offer of a pair of elder beads for my fungi tunic back when elder beads were still dropping. I declined since my fungi was my most prized possession in game at the time...but just think how many fungi tunics I could have now if I'd accepted the trade. :P

I bought a pre-nerf CoS when it was still cheap.

It's performing better than my crypto portfolio.

This hurts.

I got in at 2017 as well.

If I made the same investment, but only 3 months earlier, I would be a multi-millionaire right now.

Same thing happened to my dad, but with penny stocks. He was going to put $100,000 down from the money he made selling his house, but mom stopped him at the last minute.

He ended up only putting $3000 in and 10x his money..

Lol

I bet mom slept on the couch for that one.

Focused water pet is more dps on red cons.
Zheart is only 50hp/min. Go AFK and make a grill cheese.

There, saved you at least 1mpp.

[Bardp1999]

Sorry you are poor

[Naethyn]

Get to 60. Join an unstable raid guild. Only bid on droppables. When the ship sinks cash in your p99 401k.

[Wrei]

Join a guild that does HoT regularly, get on the pick 3 raids and sell MQ's, can do this with any class really if you don't have a dedicated farmer.

[Jimjam]

Pp only good for buying bandages and jum anyway.

[Castle2.0]

I lost track of how many manastones I looted.

Ever since farming urns for plat, i could never look at farming plat any other way ever again. Like being semi afk killing blue cons for 150k mq just cant be beat

you could spend an equal amount of time duoing fungi king and not touch that rate
