Greetings all,After lvl 50, the only way to advance my char further is to upgrade my spells and get better equipment, but of course, this is not cheap. I've done quite a few things in the past for cash:-Run around RoV collecting ?, sell the enchanted bones.-Run around T5 outdoor zones harvesting.-Kill solo mobs and sell the chest drops to NPC merchants.I've been trying Harvesting for the past couple days and only gotten 1 rare...and the prices have dropped on those so I don't think I'll get much for it. I'm wondering if soloing mobs is faster for cash. Although at 50 I get no Xp from them, so in a long streak of bad luck it's pretty disappointing.So, does anyone have any recommendations of how I can spend my time to make cash so I can upgrade my stuff? Any ideas are welcome.P.S. I know this has been asked before, but recent changes in the game have affected the economy dramatically, I'm asking for updated info <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

TBH the only people i know that make a lot of money are 45+ tradeskillers. most of my money comes from loot and harvesting although since offline selling came in prices have dropped a lot. eg. opal used to sell for 70g-120g now you can pick one up for 1/2 that. <div></div>

<FONT color=#66ff00>Heh just do all 3. Im only 45 but I run around FE Northern area grabbing ?, or, and killing lizardman. After all the stuff sells I usually am making about 15-20g an hour between the sales of all 3.</FONT>

<DIV>Hello there, my best making gold technique is soloing maiden gultch instance , menagerie and the nameds in feerott , i usually get alot of money out of this , i got to say its hard but with the right combination of spells and good masters spells with in combat hp regen its possible <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> need practice thought lol be prepared to die often since we are paperguys <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>                                                                                                                          Ragnor  lvl 50 Wizard Kilticor Server</DIV>

I would also say soloing group mobs / nameds.  I was killin some snow leopards for fun the other day... and the guy next to me soloed one and got a master chest.  I was [Removed for Content] as [expletive ninja'd by Faarbot] cuz it shoudla been mine.. was a nice rogue wep.  Ah, well... I usually do Vault of Flames / Maiden's Gulch / Menagerie with a couple others, might try soloing it soon though. <div></div>

FYI, GEBs, Prismatic, Robe of the Invoker all help quite a bit when trying to solo stuff heh. Almost all my 40-50 spells are adept 3'd, all of the important ones. <div></div>

Thanks all for the responses so far. Soloing nameds and grp mobs is something to think about for the future, when I've acessorized with better equipment(with power regen, more power, etc...) and more Adept III's or some Masters. Right now, even when things go right and I get no resists, I end up oop on a non-grey grp mob. So I guess I'll do the other things in the meantime. May the Plat flow through all your purses.

<DIV>Well imo and just imo - best way to get cash flow is farming master chests thanks to TW farmers best targets are well known</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>FireToads, RottenGil (at LS beach) but you will need invite someone who not lvl 50 in group in order to green em up</DIV> <DIV>RallosianBoncer, Headhunter, Aflictioner (sp) (bigger one) - lower lvl mobs that tend to drop a lot master chest</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>If you have group I'd highly recomend farm Efreety Bastion to bad this zone on 18 hour timer. SOF is good choice also 2 named take around 2 min to kill Overlord but if you also want to kill Fright you got clean upper floor so it might take upward 20min... Menagrie and Icespier summit kinda waste of efforts imo</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Btw for harvesting collectible best place isnt ROV its Obelisk</DIV>
