Well, we do have a guide with some tips: How to Make Money in EQ2. Some of it is about selling things on the broker, which is your disadvantage, of course.

- First, either level up yourself in crafting enough to upgrade your own spells or to only buy spell upgrades you feel are absolutely necessary (at 55 I honestly wouldn't be spending much on them), or even, harvest the ingredients you need for your upgrades then as on the Crafting channel for someone to make them offering a small tip.

- Next, concentrate on bigger money-making quest... the Gathering Obsession quests are good for any level (and you can do most of them at 55) and Tenebrous Tangle quests pay out a decent amount of coin, which adds up quickly if you're not spending it.

- Consider trying something a bit off the wall: mentor down to level 5 or 10 and go through some newbie mobs, collecting tradeable Treasured items (adept books, armor, weapons, jewelry). Add up how many tradeable items you have figure out how much you would earn if all of them sold at 5g each (so 12 items would be 60g, 50 items would be 2p 50g, etc). Hop onto your server's Auction or 1-9 chat and offer to sell all those items for that cost ("Selling 50 level 1-9 transmute fodder items, 2p50g for the whole bunch, send tell!). I can't promise that someone will bite quickly, but when I sell low level Treasured transmute fodder piece, I sell them for 5g each on broker (Legendary items usually go for 10g+ each... this is on the Everfrost server... you may have to browse your own server for pricing).

- If you have excess monthly event currency (City Tokens or Elemental Tokens) that you don't want to use, offer to buy someone items with them in exchange for a payment.

- Finally, sell everything you don't want to keep to a vendor! Again, this adds up over time. Tenebrous Tangle (and other KoS zones) has a lot of "Treasured" armor drops and those should sell at a respectable value for that level range.


BTW, I'm Phantasy on the Tunare server (originally from E'ci). Noticed your sig!

Hah it's okay, I'm not on there often either! But it's not often I bump into someone on here from my server.

Glad to help, good luck with getting your funds back up! Make sure you're doing tradeskill quests, some of those will grant advanced books.

What I do for myself is buy up fertilizer foods for the house pet (you give him fertilizer in exchange for shinies). Whatever shinies I get, I sell on the broker. Some of them go for around 150p a piece (and I only spent 15 gold to buy the 3 fertilizer items).

:)

You mean they Buryani shinies or the plant potions?

I think Miss Jackie means the collection items you can get--not for feeding the carnivorous plants (that's what gives the roots, which aren't tradeable), but for giving fertilizer to the burynai seeker or coldain herbalist guild amenity. http://eq2.zam.com/wiki/Fertilizer_(EQ2)

Right, guild halls are at 30. If you can find someone's house with a burynai seeker in it you can feed their seeker. I used to do that prior to guild halls (I never had the RoK pre-order either). Or, ask around on your server's chat channels and see if anyone would be willing to create a char and /claim and place a seeker in one of your homes for you.

oops, double post
