Soul stacks (999 souls) go for 100-120g. Selling for less guarantees customers, but 110g isn't unreasonable. I'm not sure about mailing your other characters gold though.


Wow mate, don't get high hopes to ppl, 999 stack of souls its 75-80gold. +100 its a pure ripoff

Dekard was around 90-110g a stack.

I'm sure someone will but, I'm not buying souls for 200g a stack (which is the lowest price on the market lately).

The increase in price is because the armor worth more if you sell them to NPC. It is ridiculous to make them to soul and sell them at lower price than the amount of gold you can get from selling them to NPC.

WHAT? I've been souling all my armors this entire time... Damnit!
Right now, the cheapest Souls are 19 silvers each. I tried to buy a stack but it ended up being 199 gold and some change. I'm not THAT desperate to advance my extra set item that nobody wants to buy in the market >_>

So now you know. -_- People who try to buy your stack of souls less than 100g is trying to scam you.

it seems that chaos maps appear to be the new farming place, from my experience;

-one CSS run with a lv. 58 HQ i can make ~450g (selling all weapons 6-7g and armors 1-2g)

-another CSS run with the same lv. 58 HQ i made ~200g (selling ONLY weapons) and just over 1 stack of souls.

also with the current drop rates ive only been able to obtain 1/4 the amount of weapon/armor dust (~20 wp, ~50 ap) compared to THQ's rates (~80 wp, ~180 ap).

money bags also to only provide < 2g compared to the ones from THQ in which we could obtain > 3g.

yeah but previously the money bags were random. Sometimes youd get 3g and most of the time youd get 6-76 silver from Arkah's money bags. Which was really lame. At least now we get a fixed amount.

Souls at 200g/stack sell. I would consider that to be a reasonable price to set if you're willing to wait an hour or three for a buyer.

They were cheaper on dekard. Actually, by half of both of those prices

The new prices are due to people selling cash for gold, then buying up everything for high prices.

O;

How many coins per x amount of souls? o:

And erm, I have most of my market licenses on my wizard which I do not play anymore, and no way to transfer the gold over :|, or am I allowed to transfer gold by using the mailbox to send to a character on the same account?


Yes, you can.

Just make a mail with the amouont of gold you want, type the name of your main, with no fear, and send it.

It shall go to your main char when you open its Mail. (Its always good to test it first, sending little amounts of cooper to confirm).

About how to make gold.....

My way is simple, go to Hidden Maps, get all the item drops, Break all the torsos/armors/top (which gives more Souls)Sell the accessories (rings/earrings and necklaces) sell the weapons to the NPC (which are worth more G) but DON'T sell the Sealed ones, just stall them on the Market for a decent price, and sell everything else.

That gives you a decent amount of gold, so Hidden Map/Chaos Maps are your solution.

Note* I was too lazy to read the whole thread.

i was too lazy to read the entire forums, so i apologize for any repeats.

my money-making method depends on my current budget.
if i'm broke (under 1000g), i'll do an MM for hidden scrolls (highest level as of now is Forest of Illusion, lv.53-55[?] i think.)
i'd get in for the hour it begins, just to farm DSS [Devil's Soul Stones]
then i'd use the DSS to buy myself a Time Shield & Chaos Scroll.

from the Chaos Map i'd stay outside the MM farming weapons & whatnot.

a bit offtopic'ish-but-notreally, B> souls! 110g per stack is AWESOME. i usually pay a ton more :{

weapons at CSS (Chaos Smoldering Swamp, or Chaos Vella/Belka/w.e her flippin name is) sell for over 6g each.
I usually find 30-40 weapons within the two hours i'm there (i'm a 60/recently61 monk, magma weap)
as for the belts/accessories, i tend to save them too (considering at times i'm usually under 100g.. each one sells for 2g or so. EVERY G COUNTS!)
[selling to NPC = 6g+ per weap, ~2g per accessory, for CSS map. selling price varies upon level of equipment.]
edit*: oh you can totally sell weapon powders for like 10g each, but i didnt include this 'cause i always need them.

bring tons of seal removers & unseal everything! never know, might find an accessory with AR/evade, or even special/artifact acc/equips!

then again this only works best for me 'cause i have the equipment inventory extension from THQ*ICE (which is HUGE!!)
[for the curious: http://img15.mediafi...35ef6b4bf6g.jpg (my inventory)]
-- btw i've reset my skills so everything is different now. pls no hating on my noob build at that time D:
[not that you can see much of it anyway]



sometimes though, i browse the market for cheap items, and resell them.
for instance, i bought a wall scroll balloon for 450g & resold it for 725g.
and i bought an artifact shoulderpad (lv.3x) for 10g, resold it for 20g (haha could've made it higher but honestly didnt care)
it's an uber time-consuming method but it works for me.

if you're lucky you'll find weapons/unique equips really cheap (as if the seller forgot to add an extra zero)
happens every now and then. just resell for the regular price.

regular MM's are okay too.
if you find jewels, people normally buy them for 5g apiece (maybe more, but i never put it up for less; always sell)
if you have spare Gada coins, you could "farm" your own set & sell them on the market (might get lucky & unseal a really good one!)
also if you have spare Gada coins, i think the current going rate is 2.5g apiece. could just farm gada coins if you wanted to.

(didnt proofread this time, too many blocks of text; i wouldnt even read my own post 'cause it's so long LOL!)

edit2*: addition to farming monster count for gada coins, it helps to do the pet quest too.
people will buy pet eggs & certain pets depending on the stat.
search for Husky or Phelix on the market to get a general idea on pricing.
