Thank you for all the good advice, Pyro :)

As a melee im always looking to upgrade my gear, even if its the smallest boost to my dps it was worth it.

I'm a few levels from being the only planes ranger in my guild and I still went out and bought 2 ebw's instead of using inferior weapons for a few days.

My point, as a melee its always worth it to upgrade your gear you should constantly be trying to be #1 dps otherwise..whats the point?

If you're not playing until sky go ahead and save up, otherwise keep the best gear on you as possible at all times were not casters after all.

Hey asshole, you didn't buy those ebws, I camped the fangs for you!!

Bullshit everyone knows an enchanter can't camp anything. You begged kina to come and save your ass, fangs were just payment.

Go back in time and camp 50 manastones... that'd sort you out. Everyone wants a manastone, even if they won't be that much use, just to have it.

druids, wizards, clerics. they can all make a tidy sum if they spend a few hours porting / rezzing. Hell, i see some people offering 500p for rezzes. do that 24 times and you get an fbss! bargain.

Money is just a small part of the game though :p

there's really many different ways of making $$ in this game, regardless of the class. The one consensus seems to be hitting 50 first. I can think of 4-5 ideas off the top of my head that can grant you a couple thousand plat in a couple hours of work, but at level 50 they're far easier to achieve.

I do, though, pity melee classes. They do have to spend quite a pretty penny to maximize their potential.

I was a warrior on live, and I was just about dead broke until I started raiding. All the money I earned was invested back into weapons/armor and other upgrades. Once I was raiding my guild funded my resist gear, etc.

I didn't make real plat until I played a caster. As is the case here on P99. I can go anywhere and solo almost anything and farm rares, or fine steel. Money is not an issue here due to my class. There are also a few "key" items that are easy to farm, and quick to sell. Very similar to real life. If there is a demand for a particular item/class items, go farm them and sell them over market value. Congrats you just made a profit, and everyone is happy!

This is also the reason people refuse to sell SSoY's for less than 14k now, because the demand is high for warriors (best aggro weapons atm), as well as the influx of warrior alts. We all know who the real tanks are come Kunark/Velious ;) step aside hybrids! :D
