    Um, it's not impossible.

    It's time + just watching and learning the CS and checking price fluctuations (takes time and studying) + farming items in areas you can do to sell the popular CS items + some luck.

    I believe one of the merchanting guides (Evolt's?) was trying to point out that you'll want items that sell regularly (say for 5-10k) and aren't too difficult to drop (this includes some greens, purples and common pinks) in addition to the rares, which sell for ungodly high prices but are also ungodly difficult to drop/acquire.

    As people have stated, farm end game... Or, as soon as a new map, quest/campaign comes out... sell sell sell high at the start, then it flattens out People tend to say keep and sell later (i.e. halloween) but I beg to differ, maybe it's for long time experienced merchants -- e.g. Halloween items, where they have a whole year to sell it until next year -- and even then, too many people have these items already. I made some nice earnings the first two days of halloween, and now CS is saturated.

    Categorise your sales between:
    1) Vanities, i.e. just for show 'cuz they look good -- in which case sell early. Lessons learned from STS, they will come back so items are not really rare as people think! (take note on drop rate).
    2) Useful items that give bonus as sets -- prices will flatten out, but will always sell.

    My advice, sell high as early as you can, then move on

    Please actually take time before going and randomly calling people idiots.
    You're not exactly being helpful here.

    First of all, I stated several places to farm in my guide, and none were Skeller Krunch.
    I however, DID state to farm Skeleton Cult Crypts as a long-term profit thing, so he may have gotten mixed up.
    Second of all, merchanting is easy, just need money and CS slots.
    Last of all, 1,000,000 is easy to make at a high level.

So yeah, remember, money is in the end game content.

    EDIT: Don't bother with merchanting unless u r planning to sit there and scan cs 24/7. I bought 36 slots, tried scanning cs all the time for 2 weeks and only made 200k. Seriously don't waste your time.
    I doubt you actually tried to merchant.
    Go check up Hunzzz or Evolt's guide. And no, merchanting doesn't waste you time.
    You're just not good at it.

    You do not need to spend a lot of time to merchant. That is, in fact, one of the primary reasons I merch—I don't have a lot of time to play, so merching allows me to make a good chunk of gold for a small amount of time in-game.

    Don't start it with me whirlz. And i actually was helpful as i gave him a real advice that works. Also if he has never seen a mil then he will probably have trouble with merchanting at first. So that's why i told him to farm end game content. I made 10 mil in a week just by farming.

    And yeah, farming cripts or any other lame campaigns like dark forest won't make you any money.
    It was fun while it lasted.

    ... Merching...useless?...

    How you think I made my 400m? (350m now cos of Halloween...) and FYI I NEVER farm, how you suppose I get money like that then :0?

    If you get used to merching and searching items, only takes about 1-2 hours a day to make 400-600k each round.
    Having a lot of slots helps by selling great numbers of items at the same time, raising your total profit.. (one slot 10k profit each= only 10k profit, 100 slots 10k profit each= 1m profit)

    Also, it's a persons OPINION wether they like merching or farming, you might like farming over merching, some prefer merching but bottom line is.. No ones money making ways "suck" or don't work, its only about the amount you make at once, and the time you spend.

    Also about the 'watching cs 24:7" I don't watch cs 24/7 either, but I KNOW what to look for.. You made 200k in 2 weeks, you obviously have no idea or very LITTLE idea on what to merch, making 500k a day is quiet easy when your merching quick sale items.. Eg: 100 slots all full of 10k items which you buy for 5k (different items of course) that's 5k profit in each slot times by 100 slots, 500k profit EASY as long as you know what your doing.

    I hope that helped and please... DON't FLAME

I have no clue how people are buying Demonic set pieces for 1-2 million a piece. It takes me about an hour to farm 10K direct gold from killing the spawns in Skeller Krunch + around 6K in pinks. 16K an hour isn't much.

    Can somebody please enlighten me on how I am doing it wrong? I know I am.
    I have a 55 pure INT mage so if anyone has any farming tips please let me know. Thank you!
    Ehh first of all be int/str or int/dex. And yes its possible, much poeple have >1m. I have 2.5m hehe. How? Merche and farm nuri bosses, like panto. They drop things around one mil often. Second: merche. Always check the cs. Hope I helped!

    There is a thread by samhayne ( can't remember the name of the thread but was posted on 10/ 22) stating that they are going for a end of november launch date for mount fang...that must be what they are talking about.
    The post was made on 10/20 not 10/22 and its titled "what's coming next for pocket legends".

    The votes are accumulating. In November, you can add votes from Oct and Nov which becomes more than 50 %. So, it is reasonable to expect the new map in November. In December, it will be like 65%.
