When I first hit 60 on the ENC I farmed HS and PoM for months saving up enough to buy items that were, at the time for me, exceptionally expensive, like PoM robe. For a long time I would farm for a solid month, then buy something for around 40k, then do it again. This worked for about a year.

Then I transitioned to selling LR in SG which was good when there were buyers but absolutely abysmal when there were not. So I moved to killing elementals which cost me more money than I made and took over a year to really become profitable. None of this was ever as good as just farming BM or something else.

Then at one point or another I got to about 200k and I bought a zheart for 120k, which I then promptly sold for 175. I did this type of thing a few times until I had 400k, which I used to buy a manastone. (I know, right?) Which I promptly sold for 600k. I very rapidly learned that EC is by far the best pp/hr, if you can bring yourself to sit there all damn day. Also, the blue economy I think is overall worse for this now than it was in years past.

TLDR; there are no shortcuts. Find a good camp. Do it forever. Find a good LR or MQ. Do it forever. Or sit in EC forever.

There are no shortcuts in EQ.
Pretty good advice!

Guess its all about flipping items that doesn't really have an " exact" value

like some items have a range

so the mindset is : buy low sell high?

Tbh I don't really like this behavior


I remember when I started the server back in 2016, I sold an item for cheap to a noob

for about 60p; I later saw him resell it almost immediately for 100p like wtf?

this happened to me a lot of times on green too but most of the time is not right away

in fact, they must have waited till I was logged off

then Ill be on an alt and see them selling my items higher than sold

So like wtf, I be nice to noobs and my reward is shit money? feels bad man

or maybe Im too gullible [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
