So Broke!

[Kimja]

So, I haven't played EQ since 2004, and I am enjoying my time back here on P99. The only problem is I'm level 9 and broke as a joke! I can't even afford to keep up with my spell costs. What is the trick here? I don't remember having coin problems way back in 1999!

Note: More of a rant than an actual question, although any ideas for good money making camps in the level 10 range are more than welcome!

What's your character name in-game.

Also stack bone chips sell easily 10pp or so, HQ Pelts for 10-20pp also, loot everything and vendor, even if it's a few copper, stuff adds up quick

[Rhaj]

I can hook you up with some coin as well.

I did the greater lighstones quests for spell money, as well as the bandit sashes in Qeynos. Not sure if there are equivalent cash quests in the Freeport area.

[Mardur]

There's places to earn money all over the game. I can sort of understand someone being too lazy to do their own research, but you didn't even mention where you are or your class. And I'm not about to list suggestions on what to hunt in every single zone in the game if you obviously can't put in the effort to earn anything more than handouts.

If you're interested in hunting yourself, at least provide a class and location. If you're just looking for free money, then be up front about it.

A tip for when you hit about 16-20 depending on class ~ Certain guards in paineel at that level will be white/blue to you and will drop 9p or so per kill. No faction hits, and you can bank/vendor freely. The spawn timer is 20 minutes or so now, but I loved this camp leveling my monk here originally.

[Mardur]

Definitely depending on class. For almost anyone, the paineel guards are just way too hard at the range they give experience. You almost always have at least 2 and you usually have very little room to work with. And if you're killing them when they're green, there's generally better money to be had elsewhere.

I think many of us just forgot how crappy it was. I remember looting every dang rat whisker and still hardly kept up with spells. I think my lvl 10 rogue got his dragoon dirk at level 12 from a buddy on live.

On P99 I'm just in a loop of grinding and self loathing. Made a little money leveling a necro to 23 (i do mean little) and started a melee to put in my time. Pretty much just assuming the first 30 levels are gonna be selling crap to vendors or grouping amd praying for loot drops. Well, whatever you can consider "loot" from the teens till 30 [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]. Im still in my teens so here's to hoping!

I will say, Willowisps are decent exp at lvl 9-13 and lightstones sell for 9 gold while greaters sell for 4pp. It's not good money but decent. Crushbone belts are way better but i loathe Kelethin.

Gnoll fangs in blackburrow will net you 5g + sellable loot if you turn in at Halas. Greater lightstones give to Myrsalla at the gypsy camp in NK, you get a book that sells for 10p.

[San]

Save all your greater lightstones and once you have alot of them there is a turn in person in NK at the gypsy camp that will give you a book or somthing like that for each one you turn in. The book vendors for 9p I think. Hope I am remembering this correctly.
