Good conversation guys thanks!

Hey Mardur, been playing the game since 99' so I really didn't need a lesson on research. Just kind of venting to be honest. Thanks for the offer for plat guys, but I'm a purist and don't take handouts!

I'm an Erudite Enchanter named Kimja, in the Qeynos area at the moment if anyone wants to get together and group.

As a new enchanter around your level, I saved stacks of bone chips. I eventually found buyers who were offering generous amounts of plat while hunting in Everfrost and Qeynos Hills. It enabled me to pay for spells and save some extra. But other than that, I was fairly poor until I started turning in GLS in my teens.

Ways to make plate 1 to 20 qeynos edition
 
YOU WILL HAVE TO SACRIFICE TIME TO MAKE PLATE IN EARLY LEVELS JUST ACCEPT THIS

1 to 20 seem to be where the most folks have hard time gather coin, so i will discuss this from perspective of qeynos toon.

Disclaimer ** This small sample is no where near the many ways you can make plate in P 1999 do some research on your own if this small sampls is not to your satisfactonIII


Qeynos area:

level 1 to whenver you get tired mail delivery run to surefall talk to bard in ranger building " i will deliver mail to qeynos" now run across qeynos hills and zone into east karana hug right wall till you hit barbarian village. Their is a bard chick in on of the buildings " i will deliver mail to qeynos" run back to qeynos or gate if you can and head to bards guild turn in letter get good xp and roughly 3pp.

Level 1+ rusty weapons sell from 3sp to 2gp each kill every dam skele / kobold you see they can also drop cloth armour and bags also values from 5sp to 4gp.

level 5 to 10 kill bears / wolfs bank all the Low , medium , high quality skins you get value varies but from 1pp to 20pp on various skins.

10 to 20 Bandits in karana rarly drop bronze now if the monk female males holding a weapon IT SHOULD ALWAYS BE BRONZE not sure if it now as i have not tested this in a month. More importantly they drop Bandit Sashes turn into karana tempel for more bronze weaponsl

10 to 20 Grizzly bears can drop GRizzly skins which can be turn into rienforced medicin bags 10 slots 10 pecent weight reduction Gaint sized item capacity. Sell from 10 to 30pp depending on buyer.

10 to 20 North karana and South karana Raiders drops bronze and bandits sashes for more bronze

10 to 20 North karana West karana undead camp. Zombies and ghouls have been fixed and will now drop rawhide on a regular basis on top of occasional bronze weapons.

10 to 20 North karana Wiisp wisps wisp and more wisps their is no place currently in p1999 with the amount of wisps as this zone for those that dont know they are the placeholders for all the mobs in this zone with a few exceptions. anyhow light stones 9gp Greaterlight stone turn in quest at gypsys for 10pp item. engouh said.


*** EDIT *** 1 in 10 is not uncommon get a Greater light stone if you level your toon in North karana level 9 to 15 you will make more than enough plate to support your spell habit. North karana is bindable as the higher levels who hang out here to bind you at gypsys camp.

Learn about the quests too. If you see furgit up (he's near cottage) in qeynos hills then kill him and turn in his head at a guy in surefall at the fire. You something several plat the first time, at least. Kill hte poachers and you can turn in their heads for sh**. Turn in rabid wolf/grizzly diseased/putrid pelts at the rodcet nife shrine for 2-3p returns. Etc.

There's lots of things but it does take time. Just do these things whne you can get experience from them. That's the best way to keep yourself busy and occupied. The more you know, the more effective you'll be.

But I'd sure like to go over it all and make it better. The holes are bad too. For example, the smugglers in the sewer really don't have an incentive to do them that I can tell. But improving all this is lala land.

I for one remember always being broke on Live. I definitely remember sporting leather on my cleric well into his 30s. And my monk still had lots of Wu's in his 50s when I stopped playing regularly.

To answer your question though, you are the perfect level for the Greather Lightstone Quests.

I have done multiple long ass quests to get mediocre gear and I have never had more then 2,000 plat at one time, and that time was because I stripped and sold all my gear on another char.

This is ridiculous. The reason you aren't able to afford a haste item (what like 15k pp?) isn't because you aren't cheating, its because you're clearly not farming for plat or farming correctly.

When my magician was in his 40s I decided to start farming plat in all the usual spots and I had 10k pp made before I hit 44.
