After making some good money mining, I thought I'd try my luck in the GE, again. But, this time, I was going to merch what I new was HOT....the ore and bars! At that time, everyone wanted a piece of the new masterwork armor set. I know guys that got rich selling +4 bane plates to people who were making burial sets, etc. and also got rich from merching the ores/bars in the GE, like you're about to read.
We actually had ore shortages in the GE after the rework. The demand clearly outweighed the supply, and I could see that. I had to take advantage of this rare opportunity. We made a lot of money back in those days. My goal was to buy and sell an ore until I saw a 200gp+ price difference. If you do the math, you can buy up to 25k ores and
25,000*200gp=
5m!
The thing was, though, is that I got lucky, a lot of times, and my price margin turned out to be somewhere near 4-500! ON MY BEST DAY, USING MY PHONE, I MADE 10M/hr and kept doing it over and over, until I had 300m+!
Gold wasn't an issue anymore, and that's when something clicked. I went to w3 and I turned into one of the angels I spoke so fondly of. My first giveaway was just a good old fashioned sloppy drop party, but at the GE. I just dropped Rune armor sets, but I noticed something in my travels that concerned me. As I was walking through the bank, south of the GE, I saw some people skilling there, smelting bars, smithing swords, etc. I immediately stopped and said, "Hey, guys, if you go to W3 in Burthorpe you can get more xp by leeching off their pulse cores!" Most didn't listen but there were a few that thanked me. It felt good.
Now, I started feeling like I was giving away too much money, so I guess I needed a cheaper way to feel good. My eye was open, at this time, and this is when I saw a lot of pain in Geilinor.
Everyday
there are literally hundreds, maybe even thousands
, of noobs roaming Geiliinor in need of help. They can be found wearing melee armor, holding a crossbow!
