How much are you pulling in?

not a lot...have seen people talk about making 50k a day or more, but i dont seem to get anywhere near that even with 24hr farming.
 
It depends what and where you are. From testing Kiss in brothers isle for like 5 weeks I made like 30-60k from stuff, mostly diamonds and blue diamonds when running 24 hours but I got 3 chase loot drops that i sold for a total of like 12 mil plat. Plus the spell orbs that drop go any where from 30-120 each. Farming grounds in a non stop killing camp is like 20-50 k a day depending on fast you kill.
 
I was making around 120k a day before I took my most recent break. Also got 2 chase items and make 6 mil off those.
 
I run a group in Underfoot zones during the night and pull in around 40-50k in 10 hours prolly and nobody goes to those zones cause they're stupidly underconned but they drop a lotta gems.
 
which underfoot zone? tried one spot once... pain to get to and toons kept dieing...but they were only about lvl 85 then
 
I bring in over 4 mil a month (been paying for krono at a mil each for all 4 of my accounts for a few months now).
 
I gotta find a better spot to farm then. I'm lucky to bank enough each month to cover 1 Krono. Let alone enough to keep all 4 accounts All Access lol
 
UF zones were my cash cow back when I played on live.. let me log in and see if I can figure out which zone it was that I used to make tons of cash in


i was in foundation, top right corner ish area where you have to go through 2 tunnels total to get there.
 
I was in my usual spot last night and in raw plat raked in about 8k for an 11 hour session... But I do have an apprentice merc tossing minor heals though. She costs me about 100p an hour.
 
Farming is all about dps and killing as fast as you can. You want a full group in a lower level zone that has decent gem drops.
 
If you don't have a baz mule I'd say you can't make enough to pay for krono... Right now farming briny is the best way to make some plat.
 
As long as I pull at least 12 hour sessions for 10 days I can make enough. Got real lucky on this last session. Ran for about 21ish hours and banked 46k before the vendor trash. Granted, if I were to recall how to swarm, I could probably make a lot more.
 
Underquarry is the zone ive been using. I know theres a guide somewhere for one spot, but i use a diff room and kill the molepeople. They drop 30-40p in coin and gems. Theres a bunch of rooms in there with 15-20 mobs so its easy to find one to camp. I manually break in the room then let it run all night and 'usually' don't have any problems.
 
In Argin Hiz, Running War/Clr/Ench with my 3 J5 wiz mercs over 11 hours I pulled in 93k in gems, vendor, and tradeskill stuff... Gonna run again tonight and see what it does.

Click to expand...

Damn. I've wanted to try Brother's Island but it just feels way too small and exposed to player traffic. I'm impressed :P
 
With recent developments, mostly due to my need for more than 1 krono a month, I need to find a safe spot where there isn't much traffic, has good enough plat drops to fund my J5 merc (400p an hour), and naturally, needs good vendor trash drops. Currently using a 100 SK with around 7800 well spent AA. Wearing Dimenionsal gear with a few odd ball pieces. I use this one to PL my other characters. I do not have the latest expansion so lvl 100 is the highest I can go. Thoughts?
 
The problem is an sk is not an efficient killing machine without you behind the wheel(swarming). I'd say maybe just turn him loose on Hunter in the grounds or something. Or check /barter and see if there are any easier to farm TS components. Chronal resonance dust for example used to have a buyer on my server buying for like ~400pp a piece.
 
KA does almost the same things that I would do. And I've been farming the Dust and lots of others. Just not raking in enough.
 
Personally I farm my krono in EQ2 and usually end up with a few left over to sell for some plat each month. Am currently keeping 7 accounts on all access and making several mil a month in EQ1. Takes much less time to farm over there and transfer than to try and do it in EQ1.
 
I make roughly 250k a day in vendor trash. Typically get 2-3 Glowing Briny's which sell for about a mil each on my server per day as well (and a few greater/medians as well but those don't sell for as much). Chase loot on average probably every 2-3 days, although sometimes I'll go on a longer stretch without seeing one before getting a few in a short space of time.
 
I've been thinking about writing up a guide for my spot but I'm also a little wary because I've read a lot of posts about certain locations becoming too popular and gaining GM attention. I'm about 50/50 on it at the moment but will think about it some more this week and (maybe) post something up over the weekend.
