"Oze, how do I make profits from farming?" I hear you ask.
Well, it's quite simple really. Lets take Vaettir farming as an example, for builds see the post by Sawyer
here.
So how do you make a profit by doing this?
There are a couple ways you can make a profit from vaettir farming, and I don't just mean by selling fancy event drops.
Method 1Firstly the simplest is to collect gold drops and perfect mods off the drops you get, then sell the useless golds to the merchant for ~300-500g per piece and the mods to players for varying values ranging from 1k to around 25k. This proves to be a relatively effective way to make profit from your farming and if you are doing this I recommend taking merchant stones to sell your golds without having to go back to the outpost every time your inventory gets too full.
Method 2Materials. Salvage your whites, purples and golds
1 into materials. Materials such as Iron and Dust are used constantly for
consets so keep a relatively stable price in the material traders. Due to there being relatively high demand for these materials it is quite easy to sell them in Kamadan. Or you can make your own consets, in order to do this collect up all your iron, and dust (steel salvages into iron with a standard salvage kit) and using the consumables traders in each of Rata Sum, Gunnar's Hold and Central Transfer Chamber create a conset! Consets vary in value between 8k and 10k and sell like freshly baked cookies in ToA.
Notes- Know your mods, which ones are worth keeping and which ones are not.
- Know what salvages into what and use your measure for measure inscriptions wisely
2- You can be genius and multi-task this with a character to get survivor so it's not just for moneys!
- Don't forget to talk to the Norn guy by the shrine at the start for norn rep points!
1Obviously if the gold has a valuable mod on it, take it off first.
2I recommend putting them on Ruby Mauls, Copper Crushers and anything else that salvages into Granite as it is valuble!
