Re: Earning Gold

if you can do swoops in spirituality when the crowd isn`t there you can make mad amounts of gold doing them because they spawn fast.plus they give minor arties that you can sell for gold.swoops usually give out 2k a kill....my own personal best for making gold there when i`m alone to myself is 350k in about 2hrs.it hasn`t happened since because that time i was the only person there.

doom is another place that hasn`t been mentioned yet.dark fathers give out some really desireable arties,ornament of the magician being one of the highest if your lucky to recieve one.i sold the one i was lucky enough to get for quite a pretty penny.

when i was bored and wanted to something different for fame and decent gold i`d do orc brutes.you can get to "glorious lord/lady" pretty quick doing them and pocket some cash at the same time.

(for newbs)the passage south of the compassion gate that has gargoyles can be fun if you can handle the paragon vertion of them.they give a decent amount of gold and various gems that can be sold to npc jewelers for some added cash.there are mutiple gargoyles that spawn there so you`ll keep it coming in quick.paragons give out chests too....some people like to collect paragon chests so thats a added bonus.not to mention the resist gains!

i know i left out some other spots but i hope this helped.

Re: Earning Gold

There is no "easy" way to make gold in UO, unless you're already rich to begin with. I became rich because I had an old account that had a lot collector's items on it that I later sold for tons of gold. Also, this account was given to me and started with a ton of gold on it as well.

The best way I've seen to make gold is buying low and selling high. I make pretty much 75% of my gold now buying stuff and then reselling it for a profit. Today for example I made 23 million. 8 mill off my vendor, 5 mill selling a gorget that i was wearing, and 10 mill selling midnight bracers to some guy looking for them. The gorget and bracers was a completely random occurence, but the vendor is my big money maker. It's right at the brit moongate, which in my opinion harbors the most random traffic out of any area in the game, atleast that's how it is on Atlantic. I see people there everytime I come to check my vendor.

basically, farm up a nest egg, then start buying and selling stuff. You'll make small profits here and there, but sooner than later it'll start piling up. I'm selling champ spawn rune books for 150k and people are actually buying them. Find something people need that you can supply, and you're on your way.

Re: Earning Gold

The easiest way to make money is Destard Dragons.
They are easy to kill and the loot consists of about 1600 gold, gems, leather armor you can enhance, hides and scales. If you consider the sale of the gems and armor to NPC's and the sale of bulk leather to other players its about 2800 gold per dragon.
Also White Wyrms give similar loot and you will be a Lord/Lady in no time.

Re: Earning Gold

This won't make you rich or anything, but if you start a new char on a shard you don't have anything on...you can kill hinds, great harts and goats for their hides. You can then sell them for about 18-19 gp each. A great heart is worth about 612-646gp. That is pretty good and pretty low risk. I only mention it because I used to think killing skittering hoppers was good money...the time I wasted.

-------------------
Well, at least that is what I have experienced on Mizuno.
