    Smile How do people get so rich

    Hey everyone

    I've been wondering how so many people in al get so rich? Is it a lot of luck or just paying lots of $$ on the game?
    I'm thinking about starting up and playing again but I only have my mythic armour and helm crafted so I need to get some better gear to enjoy the game more. Anyone have any tips for me to make some gold I'm tempted to buy some plat but not quite sure yet.

    Any advice is welcome

    Thanks

    Most of the uber rich either spent a hell of a lot on plat, are exceptional merchants or plain cheated. You can still have good fun without all the best gear but I'd stay away from endgame PvP. You could always farm a few million in a couple weeks but sadly unless you can afford 20k+ plat your not likely to be able to obtain the best gear/pets.

    You can get some cheap gear to pair with your mythic set then run km3 or backenridge for 2-3weeks, make it a goal to loot at leats100k/10+ lockeds x day.
    when you accumulate enough lockeds phase 2 starts.
    You have two choices:
    a) you can buy plat and try your luck with crates
    b) you can sell the crates and continue farming. when you accumulated enough gold 3-4m you can start merching for 100-500k gains.

    goodluck =)

    Also iv just noticed your AL ign.. idk if you'd be willing to sell those names and its a bit of a risk incase of scams but you could easily expect to raise 100m for the sale of all 3 especially Sun I can see being particularly profitable.

    Plus if you haven't played for a while any items you still have in your inventory may now be collector's items so be careful what you sell and for how much. Use the auction house or traders market on the forum to price check

    I've never actually bought or sold a name however id assume you would use a trusted mediator to hold the buyer's gold and pass to the seller once the name has been changed.. possibly for a small fee im not sure. Pvp is better and cheaper at twink levels I find 7-18 and 25-29 to be the busiest and most fun but that's just my opinion. If you sell your ign go boss it at endgame with samael and arcanes! Good luck

    Level 7 is where you find the most 'food' or easy kills. Mainly ppl who just made it through brackenridge, buy a few cheap equips and give pvp a go.. bad mistake with people like jurmans lurking in full gears lol

    Well since u don't seem to be rich, at lvl 7 there's no mythic gear or arcane hooks, arcane pets don't give a huge advantage here, so rich players have a smaller advantage over the poor/middle class.

    It's an active bracket.

    Lots of clashes (+ for me).

    Lots of people with a big mouth (- for me).

    But as I said it's cheap active and fun.

    You don't NEED maxed gear to PvP at endgame but it certainly helps. See, in PvP right now there are basically 3 categories: the geared out folks, the not-so-high-geared but skilled folks, and the undergeared not-so-skilled folks (see how I deliberately avoided using the word "noob" there? ). To win in endgame PvP, you need to be either of the first two and definitely not the last one!

    To begin with I'd suggest twinking to really get to learn your class in PvP (I'm assuming you're a rogue?). A mythic armor & helm, expedition bow, power ring of brutality and a wild talisman/fang of fenrir should do you good enough at endgame, long as you know how to play your class to perfection.

    I speak from experience, as I didn't have mythics for 2 seasons of PvP and only got maxed out quite recently. Well, gl!

    Rich Folks got lucky with the Locked Crates, or spent a ton of $$$$ for plat, or simply have so much time in their hands that they play all day Merching and grinding maps. Either way, it's pretty hard to do any of those things to get rich, except if you have real money to spend. I suggest you do what regular players do and enjoy the game and play when you can and have fun It's a game after all
