Guide Efficient (pre-gavel) Money Making Guide (level 38+)

Because of the forums tragedy known as 9/7, all threads, including my old money making guide, are forever lost. I am mainly reposting and adding little things in this money making guide for all of you.

Anyway, you have to complete the Canyon Condor quest to have access to one of the necessary factors of this money making guide, you can still follow this money making guide as a lower level, but you won't make as much money.

First, you must go to this location in the Mesa. It has a high spawnrate of Dead Prospectors which have a special drop, Gold Ingots, make sure to get a stack of these as they will be useful later! Coords are in picture.

Keep killing these guys until you have a stack of gold ingots (64) and you'll have to move on to the cave shown on the screenshot. Also be sure to pick up Unique, Rare, or Legendary chain/iron items that drop from them. The mobs that spawn in this cave are Corrupted Ores, they spawn more abundantly than the Dead Prospectors but they can also be deadly if you get caught into their "death ball"

There are also 2 Loot Chest IIIs in the cave that can help give you emeralds or more gear for your convenience.
When you're done, your inventory should look a little bit like this:

The three empty slots are for the next step, buying Outlaw Armor on the Mesa Plateau. The total cost of the set is 64 gold bars. Here's a picture below.

The next step is selling your loot. I tend to sell all unique and rare items to the item buyer as noone tends to buy those types of items. Each item is worth on average 30 to 40 emeralds per piece.

On certain occasions, you will find a legendary item from one of the mobs such as this one. I advise that you do not sell this to the item buyer as they are certainly worth more than 40 or so emeralds. I tend to sell these for 12 or 16 eb depending on their defense and level value, I also recommend not identifying them before selling them.
You shouldn't sell your Outlaw Armor either, the set in general is worth a good few emerald blocks and I tend to sell them on Detlas Server 1 because it's the fastest place to sell something. I use the "buy more for less" method of selling where I make the cost of a single piece higher than the total cost of the set, and example would be Selling a piece of outlaw armor for 6 eb individually, and sell the entire set for a worth of 20 emerald blocks, it helps things sell faster and more people are inclined to buy it.

After that you should have quite a good bit of emeralds after making a trip to the Corrupted Ore Cave. For this run where I recorded data, I managed to make a total of 51 emerald blocks from everything totaled up.

I hope this guide helped you! By going through this route a lot, you will be getting quite a bit of liquified emeralds in months!

As always, constructive criticism is appreciated.

 

How long does one cycle take on average? Because currently I prefer messing around at herb

 

This is actually now I grinded emeralds to make my guild, lol.

One cycle for me was about 30 mins, and I got about 32-48 eb every time.

 

What helmet are you wearing?

 

i meen... i stopped farming when i reached 75 on my mage and i have 20 stacks of le + every collectable in the game, is this really efficient?

 

It may not be the most efficient for the level 60+s (herb cave), but this guide was meant to compensate to the lower leveled players as the level 40+ range will require more money to get gear, and do certain quests requiring money like the House of Twain and Zhight Island.

I'm wearing spectre. A level 65 legendary diamond helmet with 67 defense that has more combat oriented ids compared to Blue Mask.

The average cycle usually takes 30 to 40 minutes, but it can be shorter or longer depending on your luck and loot bonus.

... You crazy

 

me no crazy u crazy

 

I have an emerald run similar to this, I go through the abandoned cave getting the loot chests there, take a left once I reach the mesa and follow that river all the way to bandit cave taking the loot chests on the way over from other caves. I finish at the bandit cave and get the loot chests then use a scroll to go back to detlas and sell the items I gained. I don't really stay to kill the mobs so if I go fast it can take like 10min assuming all the chests are there.
