what you said:

Contagious tumors, wisp stones, salt crystals, goddess statues, sparking random epic gear and hoping for a decent roll, et cetera.

what i read:

>luck, luck, luck, abyss, bigger luck, etcetera.

guess i'll go do wisp stones on master, should provide some some onyx too. i get almost half a stack of onyx in a desolation run.

Right now I'm experimenting with merching rare apoc materials. So far for apoc eyes it works like this
Buy for 800, sell for 1,000. Sometimes it takes a few days, sometimes they sell the same day. It's several k gold per week with minimal effort, I think it's nice. Currently keeping track of other apoc items as well, and I'll try merching them as well.
Of course, as 50 cap approaches, I'll move to materials that won't have massive deflation.

It's never worth it to merch high priced items when the profit margin is tiny imo. High priced items end up eating a ton of tax and if your profit margin is like a measely 100g or 200g, it'll eat like a chunk of it. High quantity of low priced items tends to be more liquid.

Personally, I still believe just doing all your nest runs and just plain doing dungeons is the fastest and most straightforward to making gold. Or if you're lucky (lol), spark / enhance for profit.

Luck Luck Luck. Yep. -_-.

Another method is to run master dungeons to gain faction points for royal court and trade them for epic diamond sparks. It's focused way less on luck and the return is pretty consistent.

I'll probably do the Hell Solo tomorrow.

nice, what were your stats?

and one last question, can anyone explain to me how set equips work? i was looking at the smith and noticed that there was no requirement for, say, manti materials when crafting a life giving mantic, but there was also a clean version of the item available for forging, how comes?

If you have a market pass, master forsaken village is totally worth it. You get like 10-15 onyx a run, it has a royal chest spawn right on the beaten path (that first lefthand turn in the second room, theres another chest there too), and since it's only 3 smallish maps it's quick.

forsaken village #1. It's super fast, has tons of mobs, and the crafting mat it drops is worth a ton.

Honestly though, the best way to make gold is to make 2 lvl40s and just do your weekly nest runs. I sold a revelation ring I got yesterday for 5.5k .

and tell me how stupid this dude is.... I bought a manticore gauntlet, +6, with magic/agi/int hiddens from friggin 3.7k rofl. It costs a minimum of 6k just to craft the thing and I got sweet hiddens on it for half the price.

In all of my manti/apoc runs, I've never gotten an item worth more than 50G, nests are not profitable for me at ALL lol.

well if you didn't do stuff like i don't know.... miss manticore helms, then you make lots of gold

I almost always roll a good gold box, but since I never get it it doesn't really matter. 25% for me is closer to 1/100 than 1/4.

Literally 1 hit away from a perfect run.

tell me about it, i've been raging at that thing in the market for days, he wasn't able to sell at all it seems though, could probably have gone lower if you tried

and no rusty, i can assure you, my luck is worse than flonne's, i NEVER even get good stuff in the gold chests, let alone hit them. best i've gotten is a stupid silver necklace.

I'm listing it for higher . Varant is also my character (the one who relisted it for 6.6k)

Edit - FINALLY. 3 tries just to get the ring to successfully craft and then >>>>>SIX<<<<< diamond sparks to finally get this so so hidden. All that gold I made on that revelation ring is gone now

oh well, I have the battle howl duration crest and higher than max level battle howl (level 4).

btw anyone wanna play my merc/ele when I leave for boot camp for 9 weeks? You can use it for extra weekly nest runs and very quick dungeon runs. Just don't take my stuff . You can keep whatever you make from nests/dungeons though.

flonne you want it?

So yesterday I went to Apoc for the 1st time with my guildies and it wasn't to bad, only 2 deaths. Dam little snake creatures are so annoying.

Ele might be cool to try, but I suck with melee lol. I wouldn't play it much though, so I would prefer you didn't, just in case your account gets nexon'd while you are away; I'd rather not be in the middle of that. Maybe if it were a company known for their security, I would consider, .

i'd take it, but i wouldn't be able to play after 2 weeks or so lol, stupid game and it's region block.

On another note, I think I'm just gonna wait for unique gear before I upgrade more, I noticed that it can roll mdmg%+element%+int%, whereas epic gear can't roll dmg+element ever. Not to mention, them stats man.

I think I might be the strongest merc on gerranta :f6:

That Vast guy was the only person I've seen who I thought may be stronger than me, but he posted his stats in the warrior thread and now I don't think so. He stacks final damage and probably has around 600 or so, but I have 700 phys range over him and probably double his crit as well.
