Sometimes it's all a matter of luck. Monster cards, Items that restore SP, and sometimes just random loot can be sold to another player. Having a secondary Merchant with Max Overcharge and Discount can help you save and sell your loot to the NPC as well as vend to other players. Ragial can be used to see what is selling.

Also, it never hurts to just go to where your server's players go to sell their items(usually Prontera) and see what items are being sold and work a system to hunt that loot if they are in your level range. Try hunting 1 East of Prontera killing Spores, Snakes, etc. They drop Strawberries and sometimes Blue Herbs. Also the Mushroom Spores can be sold to players since I believe the Alchemist+ Class can use them

Hi, if you want to know where to get the best loot to xp ratio for your level, go to wiki and do monster search 9 - 11 levels above you and check the monster locations, you will get lists of the specific map monsters and can check their drops. Clicking on the drops will show their stats, price (sell and buy), other ways of obtaining etc. For lv 26 for example the best place would be Lutie Toy Factory, The Cookies give really great xp and they also drop well-baked cookies, you can also farm myst case monsters for pieces of cake which sell decently to both human and npc's, though you will be stuck dodging the occasional boss on both floors (namely Stormy Knight on Toy Factory 2(MVP)) it is worth the trip if you are under lv 40 or so!

- Make a Merchant and teach it
___________Max Discount
___________at least 1 point in Vending
___________High Overprice

-if your on a high population server (not like yggdrasil) one thing we used to do a few years ago when i played (6yrs ago) is hang out by an NPC that people vendor their stuff to and open an OVERPRICE Chat. Max Overprice is 24% offering to overprice people's loot for 15-20% can yield some good profit since some are too lazy to make a merchant



-Vend Items that people want and are too lazy to go get:
___________I started off small with red pots and fly wings..
___________id sell the fly wings for 55 (56 on the weekends) and red pots for 40-44 (45 on the weekends)
___________once i had some capital i expanded to Butterfly wings, and Yellow potions I made profit but it was very small and there was a lot of competition.

Nowadays I have my merchant in eden on Yggdrasil vending (when i remember to re-stock)
Fly wings amt# 925 ~ 56z [60 original price]
Butterfly wings amt#100 ~ 260z [300]
Yggdrasil Leaves amt#25 ~ 3500z [4000](you can buy them in aldebaran)
Berserk Potions amt#65 ~ 2500z [3000] (you can buy them in Comodo)
Awakening Potions amt#65 ~ 1250z [1500]
Concentration Potions amt# ~ 700z [800]
Total Weight= 8000

I tend to sell very quickly and you can always set your vendor when your not leveling your other char.

you can also vend items you know are in demand
like right now with the spooky machine you can sell the letters for BOO
when the 4th seal of MJOLNIR is open you can sell rough elunium and rough oridecon for a ton..

familirize yourself with events and quests and what people search for
...materials for alchemy potions
...battle manuals on 2x exp weeks

another huge thing is selling Kafra Shop Items for zeny if you don't care about spending actual money for zenny. Many players don't so they have to search for people selling those items



if your creative you can find many ways to make money in the game. Good luck!

For your level, you shouldn't need to worry about Armor/Weapons just yet.

Have you been to Eden yet? In most towns, there's a white haired Girl with "QUEST" on her head. If you talk to her, you'll be ported to Eden. If you talk to the NPCs behind the counter, you can sign up for Eden Quests. If you talk to the orange haired one after reaching certain levels, you'll receive a quest that will give you a free set of Armor/Weapons for your level that is better than any weapon/armors you can get before you hit level 99.

You can do a quest with them at level 12, 25, 40, and 70. They'll give you better items with each quest, the best set coming from the level 40 quest (the level 70 quest is to just get equipment that you missed).

Easy money for low players who need a tip.

Go to irowiki.org database.

Type in dragon fly

Find map where it spawns. Patrol said map until find it. Then return every hour to kill. Sell clips it drops for a bucket of cash.

Go to geffen, you can walk there or a kafra employee will warp you there. The map north of geffen has hundreds of mandragoras. Mandragoras consistently drop stems which can be sold to a buy shop for 500 zenny each. check ragial.com, click on buying, click on stems in the list and it will show you where the person is whos's buying zenny.
If you're above level 15 this is a simple and consistent way to make tens of thousands of zenny. If you're trying to make millions, buy items with real money and sell them.

Make a merchant and max out your overcharge and discount skill then sell those monster drops you have. Or the other option, pay-to-play, buy items with real money:/

Oh, and sign up for the Ragnarok Online Newsletter. Every so often, they send out free promo codes (there's one in every newsletter). This month was for a free 3x Battle Manual. That's about 8 million for free. Last month it was a free Safe to 7 All pack (I think), which was like a free 15 million.

-Looting is also another option. The higher ur lv, the stronger are ur enemies, the higher is the value of ur loots. I grind and loot at nogg like hell this week and I got 1m in less than a week /heh
-Whenever u want to go to Alberta, go via Izlude, talk to the ship guy, pay 700 z for Alberta dock so u pay less than kafra teleport service ^^
-Make a merchant (vend slave) with maxed Vending, Discount and Overcharge.
-This one is risky, so I highly don't recommend u this, especially if u're new (I've never done this either). Sell WP to ppl, but do it with ur own risk since it's always possible to get scammed.

back when i used to play 6 years ago on Loki you could always go to the Tool Dealer in Prontera and on occasion there would be a merchant with a 15 or 20% OC window up it really adds up..
then again back then there were scores of acolytes/priests lined up near the milk vendor to sell warps to people to Glast Heim and other city's back then too...


you dont see a lot of that anymore
