Guild Wars 2

Hi,

I’ll cut this short. I’m kinda broke in-game. lol

Level 40ish, with 50silvers. Yep, 50 silvers. I have 1 gold, but I bought the Manual for my Guardian, accidentally – thinking it costs only 1 silver. lol

Anyways, are there specific areas in game to farm gold? I mean, I don’t need fast gold – just consistent income for my travels.

How do you “farm gold” here? Do you play with the Trading Post? Do you sell ALL LOOTS to NPCs? Do you craft something and sell it to players?

I’m kinda new to GW “system” – I do traditional MMOs like Cabal, Diablo 3, Ragnarok (ooh old stuff).

Thanks in advance! Cheers!

Personally, I craft goods and gather then sell everything I don’t use on the Trading Post. I’ve made more than 5 gold and none of my toons are higher than level 15 yet.

Oh. And, I don’t mean to state the obvious. But, you can purchase Gems on the TP for RL $ and trade them for gold.

All the above, plus completing a dungeon is a 26 silver reward. Dynamic events pay money so participate in events whenever you see them. Salvage some select drops from mobs for crafting materials, either to use for leveling your craft or to sell to other players via TP.

1) The trading post is a universal system which all servers tie into. While you can always try to play the market, just understand that you’re competing with EVERY other player in the game (instead of just your specific server).

2) You’ll get +20 Silver coins for every non-city Map Completion. If you complete all of the Heart, POI, and Vistas on a map, then it can be very nice.

3) Sell crafting materials. Crafted items are often used while leveling up. Also people are grinding many crafting classes up to the 400 skill cap because they’re needed to make the Legendary grade weapons. As a result, some of the raw material crafting items sell for a ton. Interestingly enough, you can make good profit margins on some of the lowest T1 crafting materials and on certain crafting materials in each higher tier. When you find something that looks profitable to farm, I would suggest that you just choose the option to instantly sell them using the “Sell to Lowest Offer” choice. While they’ll normally under cut the lowest selling price on the market, you can often find some decent profit margin offers and you’ll get the cash instantly (instead of trying to compete with hundreds of other selling offers on the market).
