Guild Wars 2

So does anyone else think that you should earn more money for quest because i’m level 30 and only have 17 sliver and i have bought the only things i need like armour and weapons and i don’t really like how much money your character gets from completing quest and events and i think that even the story quest should give you more money anyone else have the same opinion?? or some tips for quick money???

What are quests. We don’t have those.

Harvest more nodes and sell all your mats. Sell blues and greens to vendors, or salvage them and sell the mats.

You’re still low level so you shouldn’t be worrying too much about money. But your best ways of earning gold are as follows:

1) Dungeons. Right now only AC is open to you but you should run at least one path a day. This will earn you a guaranteed 1g+ a day in addition to tokens and other loot.

2) Gather everything. Everything you see. Things like soft wood and iron in particular are very valuable. If you plan on crafting, save what you gather; you’ll be glad you did later. Otherwise, sell on the TP for good money.

3) World bosses. You won’t get the bonus rare chest until you’re level 80, but right now you can still earn lots of loot, karma, and xp doing the bosses and their pre-events.

4) Map completion. Each map will give you bonus gold, xp, materials and loot on top of everything you get from doing all the hearts and other points around the zone. Rewards will increase with higher level zones.

Doing all of these is a sure-fire, steady way to earn gold, materials, karma, and to level up.

Holy run on sentence, Batman.

Yes to harvesting nodes. Don’t sell blues and greens to vendors.

Don’t buy weapons/armor while you’re below lvl 80. Sift through all of the items you get as drops and see if there are items you can wear. Use those. Alternatively, when you complete a heart quest and it’s close to your level, you can check it and buy some karma armor if it’s cheap. Just be aware that after you buy it, you’re probably going to have to mystic forge any of your obsolete karma armor.

For any drops that you get that are blue and green, if you can’t wear them or they’re not an upgrade from your current armor, you should first look on the Black Lion Trading Post and see if you can sell them there. Vendor prices are usually much lower than Trading Post prices.

If you feel like the price on the Trading Post is not worth it to sell, then you should Salvage the item.

Biggest tip, stop spending money while you level. You’ll get gear from drops, use it when it’s an upgrade, sell it/salvage it when it’s not.

Over the course of leveling to 80 doing hearts/events I made probably 20ish gold because I simply never spent a dime other than repair costs (now gone), waypoints, salvage kits, and gathering tools.

Once you’re 80, dungeons are great and champ trains aren’t bad.

yes, events should give more coin. no one does them because they aren’t rewarding.
I’ve actually been curious where all the coin in the game actually comes from. probably dungeons. What I mean: almost everything you do to earn a profit is from selling things you find. world bosses? sell the rare. gathering? sell the materials. TP trading? sell the purchases. actual coin income into the game is sneaky.

Sorry, Jerus, biggest tip is gather everything and sell it on the TP, not to NPC vendors. I had no idea about that for ages and I was sooooo poor. Learn about the trading post and how it works, and use it. You can thank me later. You should only vendor the trophy items which can’t be sold on the TP, or anything that doesn’t sell on the TP for more than the vendor amount.

I would suggest against buying ANYTHING until you reach LVL 80. Maybe pick up a Rare weapon or 2 at LVL 40. Save money and Karma…..

Limit your WP use. I don’t think it’s more than three minutes to run across a zone, unless you gather and kill along the way in which case you are making money and not spending it. Traveling that way also increases the chance of stumbling upon a Dynamic Event which also rewards Karma.

But if you blow all your money on WPing from zone to zone trying to do boss events rather than short cutting through the mists to Lion’s Arch and free gating closer to the next event, you aren’t going to earn all that much because you are bypassing all the easy income along your travels. Sure WP if you aren’t going to get there in time but try to use that as last ditch travel, not first choice, no if you are fundless.
