Guild Wars 2

Like most people I too am grinding away at my Legendary.

And although I’ve still got a way to go I can already tell that money, not Karma is going to be my limiting factor.

Hence I’m wondering if and how might be the most effective way of turning my excess Karma into something I can make money with?

if you’ve got the mats, buying all the exotic 400 recipes and crafting them can net you a profit.

in terms of flipping karma bought items? i don’t think that’s possible since they are usually SB or AB

With character I dont play anymore I just bought tons of green 80 lvl weapons and used it in mystic forge. Then I sold the rares I dropped

But I dont think there is really any good way to turn karma into gold anyway.

Money will allways be a problem, becuse of the Itemshop. Where the hole idea it for players to buy Gem to turn them into the money u dont have/cant farm ingame

Money will always be a problem because there is too many gold sinks.

No, you will not be able to sell to a merchant or Trading post anything bought from a karma vendor. They have even stopped the salvaging of the blasted items. So if you don’t plan on having that piece of karma bought armor very long don’t put your fave rune on it, you won’t be able to get it off.

As pointed out before, the only use for them is put them in the Mystic Toilet and see what happens

Not so much making money, but you can save yourself some money by getting gathering tools and fine salvage kits using karma rather than cash.

I would suggest putting the karma items you get from a vendor into the mystic forge to get a non-bound item you can sell on the TP

It will not be quick money, but it will allow you to transmute one resource into another. Best of luck to you mate.

cooking, sun beads, tools&salvage kits

quick ones to come my mind.

salvage kits for ecto business..?

NPC: “Hey there, you did a good deed for me. Take this note that give you 158 good deed points (karma)”
Player: “Thank you sir!”

Player: “Hey there mister shopkeeper, I have this note that says I have done a good deed. Can you pay me money for that?”

Do you have any idea how ridiculous that sounds…?
