Hi there, you clicked on this thread because you want to make money right? Awesome. Lets get you started.

 

First off you will be using these websites a ton, so bookmark them and learn how to use them!

 

http://ragial.com/iRO-Renewal  - This is a market checker, just type in the item name and it will show who is selling, how much, and where.

 

http://irowiki.org/wiki/Main_Page  - A wiki with a ton of info on all the stuff you will need! A little outdated but still good never the less.

 

http://db.irowiki.org/db/ - A database that contains raw numbers. Wanna know what the drop rate on an item is? Or maybe where to find monster X? This is for you.

 

Note: This guide will also refer to specific maps. If you don't know how to use the map system in Ragnarok please read below.

In game Press  CTRL + ~ to pull up the world map. From there hit the ALT key to bring up maps names. Or hit TAB key for monster levels.

 

Anyway after looking over these 3 links and knowing how the map system works, I want to make this a main point....

 

 

MAKE A MERCHANT CLASS. This is non negotiable. You will need the Overcharge, Discount and Vending skills. They are needed to make money.

 

Alright, so you have a merchant class and have seen the 3 websites above? Okay lets go!

 

 

Note: All these drop rates go up if you are a VIP! So if you wanna make even more money go VIP! New options for 200 WPE you can get 1 week VIP to test the waters. It is worth it I promise you that much.

 

 

Low Level Guide:

These aren't going to rake 100's of millions of zeny in. But if you are willing to put an hour or two in for 100-250k this is for you.

 

 

Strawberry Hunting

 

Recommended Level 10+

 

pay_fild02.png Or pay_fild08.png Hunting: Strawberries Killing: Spores 

 

Yes this does not make huge profits, but if you want to spend an hour and make 100-200k this is a good way to do so. Spore monsters drop strawberries at a high drop rate. These again are items always in huge demands. You can get them in a few different maps. I would recommend Payon Forest 02, because the map one right of Payon is always crowded. 

 

Always check Ragial for prices on how much to vend them for.

http://ragial.com/it...al/HbXm5a42iFgr

 

 

Yggdrasil Seed Hunting

 

Recommended Level 50+

 

cmd_fild03.png   Map: Comodo Field 03  Kill: Alligators

 

2 Maps east of Comodo, you can kill Alligators and they have a chance to drop Yggdrasil Seeds. These items are always in high demand to end game players.. They are currently at 78,000 zeny a piece. While that price fluctuates, you can follow it here.  Drop rate is kind of low yes, but the alligators are out in large numbers, and they are not hard for anyone 50+ to kill.

 

http://ragial.com/it...al/HbXm5a42iFgN

 

Note: If you want to get some EXP while doing this check out the bounty boards in Comodo!  Comodo-Bounty.png

 

 

 

Maneater Blossom Hunting

 

Recommended Level 50+

 

Another item that is always in demand, Maneater Blossoms. Prices Fluctuate a lot with these items but you can skill make 1-2k per blossom sold.

 

cmd_fild01.png cmd_fild03.png gef_fild08.png

Comodo Filed 01                                         Comodo Field 03                                          Geffen Field 08

 

Hunting: Maneater Blossoms  Killing: Flora

 

Flora drop these bad boys with a whopping 90% drop rate! And all three of these maps have high spawn rates so farm away! They are aggressive though, but with 2k hp they can only do oh so much. Keep an eye on Ragial to see how much to sell them for.

High Level Guide:

 

Coming soon!

 

Old Ghast Helm:

Faceworm:

MvP loots:

 

 

Dailies:

Coming soon~

 

Mora

Eclage

Turn In Farming

 

 

Buying and Selling WPE and KP Items:

 

Coming soon~

 

Buying and Reselling Item Guide:

 

These all require money to make money. Buy low sell high that kind of thing.

 

The trick is don't go overboard. That means waiting to buy at the right time, selling smart, don't jump the gun, and accept the fact that you may lose money.

 

This method also make take time, so learn to AFK vend :P

 

Dead Branches:

 

Any Level

 

These items are an enigma. They are a total waste of money, but everyone buys them and the price always fluctuates to either really low, or crazy high. You can farm them yourself from Elder Willows, or buy them cheap and then go to Prontera Field 08  and re-sell them. This is about playing the market smart, so you can lose money if you are over eager. Buy low, sell high.

 

http://ragial.com/se...em=HbXm5a42iFgR

 

Investment Machine:

 

Any Level

 

This one requires the most money to invest, but it can yield high profits if you have some luck.

 

http://irowiki.org/w...vestment_System - READ THIS FOR A THOROUGH ANSWER AND UNDERSTANDING HOW IT WORKS.

 

Here is basically what you need to know...

 

Head on over to the Valkyrie WoE realm (or any WoE realm), One map north of Prontera or copy and paste this into your chat bar:   /navi prt_gld 158/96

 

You are looking for the Cat Paw Merchant NPC. Talk to him and if the time is right you can invest. he investment period begins 1 hour after WoE Ends.

Woe is 4pm-6pm PST

 

s8yzuGC.jpg

 

Tell him you want to invest and he will ask you how many times you want to. Each time is 10,000 zeny, and you can invest up to 200 times.

 

10,000z - 2,000,000z. You get to pick. He will then give you 1 Investment ticket per 10k spent.

 

So 10k Zeny = 1 Investment ticket. Then you can take your Tickets, and exchange them for Paw Bags.

 

vIxVQVB.jpg    OzYmmAI.jpg

 

Red Paw Bags (5 Tickets)  -These give you some good items to sell and make more then the 50k investment. Be warned there is some junk in here so it is a gamble.

 

Black Paw Bags(50 Tickets) - These give you a chance for WoE gears, that you can resell or use if you plan to WoE. It also gives higher amounts of the normal rewards.

 

Things you want to get from investment to resell:

 

WoE Gear

WoE Potion Boxes

Yggdrasil  Seeds/Berries

Speed Potions

Amulets

Old Purple Boxes

 

And much much more. Please see the iRO wiki page for a complete list of items and then check them against Ragial before you sell them.

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

NOT COMPLETE YET I KNOW, AM I FORGETTING SOMETHING? LET ME KNOW.

 

This thread was written for Janeway victims and all new players who are just joining us here on iRO. So let me be the first to say, Welcome to iRO~

 

Enchanting may come later. Idk stuffs rough on newbies.

very nice! looking forward to the completed guide.

one minor change->ygg berries to ygg seeds for alligators, since you mention farming seeds in the actual explanation

question on investment->the 2mil/200 tickets cap is per dialogue right, not like 2 mil per person per investment period?

Well put yourself in a new players shoes, they have limited gear and money, so gathering and selling is all they really can do.

much better if they unlock geffenia dungeon and attack incubus & succubus using RC skill (as GX class):

 

Farming at Geffenia Dungeon

kfAQxI.png

 

OR

 

If there GX are so poor

why not hunt lower valuable mobs card e.g.  hunter fly card & phen card

 

Edit:

other low level mobs with expensive card. 

lv.50 skeleton archer 10m

lv.52 Phen card 20m

lv.58 matyr card 10m

lv.63 Hunter fly card 15m

lv.68 dokebi card 15m

lv.79 pasana card 20m

lv.79 marduk  card 10m when High TI needed 20m

Dead Branch is dropped by Elder Willow, not Greatest General. prt_fld10 has the highest spawn rate for Elder Willow.

 

EDIT: Investment: Right, there is no ceiling on how much zeny can be invested per character per period. There's just a limit to how much zeny you can invest per dialogue session.

Per dialogue, you can dump as much zeny as you want on the cat.

this is awesome i will look on the investment system, it seems to be good!! and a really good investment is to buy elunium and

re-sell, and i think u can say that buying low and selling high is not a good way to explain the market beggining, if u think, buying elunium from players paying 20k is good but u will waste much time until get a reasonably amount of the item, if u can aford to it, pay 27k or so and the players will sell to you much more fast, and u can re-sell the item for 40k ea and sell really fast against the ones that sell for 45k or more. so TIME IS MONEY!! and u can get more money paying better and selling for prices a little lower than the others.

Hi there, just wanted to ask if people are buying WPE or KP or both?

 

What's best practice to sell and buy?

 

Is it allowed? Looks like RMT...

Thats a pretty good question. How do people even go about selling WPE/KP? I know I see a lot of people in eden selling em. But one way or another someone has to take a change right?

 

either you give them wpe and then get paid, or you pay and hope they give you the wpe?

For KP it's easy and pretty safe:
They tell you what items they want and you buy it for them.

The rest is just regular item vs zeny trade.

If the buyer wants something from an untradeable box you'll have to open the box and trade whatever is inside.

Even if the buyer backs out then (wouldn't that be some kind of scam? sure would feel like it for me) you could always sell the items in a vend.

In that way, WPE has more value that KP, because KP is converted WPE and is account bound.

WPE, instead, the code can be given to the buyer.

 

But, what I see in Eden Group 1st Floor is that, buyer expected too low price and seller expected too high price. There must be some negotiation going on...
