The Complete Guide That Cover Everything
As Written By: ~ASiAN

NOTE: THIS GUIDE WAS PREVIOUSLY ONLY FOR MY GUILD; I AM RELEASING IT TO SHOW ONE OF THE MANY THINGS THE GUILD HAS TO OFFER. MANY OTHER TUTORIALS ARE AVAILIBLE ON OUT GUILD SITE, INCLUDING "HOW TO GET SUPER RICH LIKE AN ASIAN".

So many other guides on how to make money "Fast and Easy" in Conquer have been written, but yet, so many ppl have no idea how. Why is this? Because all those other guides are written by noobs. The people with the real money making secrets, they don't want to give them out, and they wont. But here, in this guide, I do. This is only for UNLTD. Members though, all others don't even know this guide exists.

In this guide we will cover many ways of making money. Not just "Hunt a lot" or "Mine a lot". I will tell u WHERE to hunt, HOW to hunt, WHERE to mine, HOW to mine. Also, other ways of making money that have not been to widely discuss before.

Sections:
1. I'm a Noob and I want Money.
2. Finally, Lvl 70+, Now what do I do?
3. Don't waste it.
4. Money without mining or hunting.
5. Know your prices.
6. Who said u need to by lucky when hunting?
7. Mining....Not a waste of time.
8. Making Supers with your money.


Part 1. I'm a noob and I want Money.

A lot of people at level 40+ want to make big bucks, and of course everyone does. But at this level, it's just not that easy. I'd say from level 70 and under most of my income came from mets, and that is true for most low levels. In this game, low levels sell mets, and high levels buy them. "But mets are so rare ", " I'm lucky if I find 1 a day ", "Only lucky people get mets, not me". NOT TRUE. Mets can come quite easy and in bulk, and to get mets you don't have to be such a high level. At lvl 40-45 you can start to collect at least 3-5 mets a day at the least (with 2 hours of hunting). Selling these at 100K each, that's 1 Mil in two days. Now I know what is your thinking, "ok, u say all this, but HOW?" Well here is how. Get to know New Maple Forest; it will be your Atm for a while.

How to get to maple forest:

Go to PC (phoenix castle) and travel south until you come to a river. Travel right along the riverbank until you come to a portal (do no go down the bridge u will see when traveling along the river). Enter the portal; you are now in New Maple Forest.

Monsters in maple forest:

The following is a list of monsters that are in New Maple forest, and there most commonly dropped items. This does not mean that they ONLY drop these items, but it is most likely to get them from them. Keep in mind that the bandits are best for mets, winged snakes are best for elites, and fire spirits are best for +1.

Bandits (Mets, refined, unique)
Winged Snakes (mets, elite, refined, unique)
Fire Rats (mets, +1 items, elite, refined, unique)
Fire Spirits (mets, +1 items, elite, refined, unique)

How To Hunt In Maple Forest:

Archers: Use your scatter. I know you think it waste arrows, but it doesn't, so much faster. And the more you use it the better, so you can become better at using it and it can level and become stronger.

Fire Tao: Just kill one at a time, only thing you can do. Unless you have fire circle, at which point you should be spending more of your hunting time at elf apes, but I will get to that later.

Water Tao: Just kill one at a time, only thing you can do.

Warrior: Worst hunters in the game, and make another character for hunting. But if u insist on hunting with him, one a time is all u got.

Trojan: Use Hercules when your stamina gets up, but don't sit down to regain stamina, it wastes time. Just kill them normally and when u gets full stamina use herc.

If you want mets, start at bandits, and if they give you nothing in an hour, then move on to fire spirits. If you get say, 3 mets in the first 20 min you come in, but none for the next 40, move on. If you get none the first half hour, but then u get 2 real quick, keep at it.

If you want elite items, just keep killing winged snakes until they come, it is your best bet.

For +1 items, go to fire spirits first, you will have to spend some time though. If you spend about 2 or 3 hours with nothing, move on to fire rats.

Elf Apes:

At lvl 55-60 it is good to hunt at elf apes. If you go to the complete left of the screen, there will be many spawns that you can just sit and kill. If you're an archer, lvl 80 is more suitable to hunt here, but other classes are fine here. Fire Tao; make good use of your fire circle here.


Part 2. Finally, Lvl 70+, Now what do I do?

Here is when the real money start POURING in, and I mean by the buckets. At this time it is good if you have two characters, as this will help you a lot. When I turned level 70, within a week I had made a Super +3 BS with two refined phoenix gems. Then another week I made Super +2 Gown. Everyone wants supers, but then cost money, a lot of money, here is a way to get some.

Desert City Mines:

I love these mines, so many gems, and so many gold ores. Gold ore is awesome, with a full bag of it you average around 300K when you sell it all. My main strategy for money making was to stick my lvl 70 Tao in the mines, and have my level 61 archer hunt in maple forest. Constantly check back on your miner, and empty out all silver and copper ore. If you have a gem, IMMEDIATLY go back to town and store it away. When mining here the rock monsters are very strong (level 97) and will kill you in 1 hit at level 70 to most classes. Mining on the top floor is very dangerous, as there are not many pk ers....but people who will lure the monsters to kill you, then take your stuff. On the other floors there are no monsters, so you are pretty much safe.

I got a Gem:

The gems you will get here are violet and moon gems. If these Gems are normal, the best thing to do with them is the Exchange Gems for Mets quest. You will get a Gold needle and with it you can get up to 10 mets (check co.99.com for details). Refined Moon gems will sell at around 900K, but don't sell that fast, and violet gems don't sell well or fast, but still you can try. The price of a violet gem differs a lot, so just look around at others prices and put yours at a similar (preferable lower) price.

Lvl 80+:

Do all of the other stuff mentioned in this guide, but also start hunting at sand monsters. They drop a lot of +1's, elites, mets, everything.


Part 3. Don't Waste It:

Don't waste what? Don't waste monsters, and don't waste money. Don't be one of those high levels that don't pick up Sycee. PICK IT UP. I understand not the silver, but that Sycee is a lot of times 90+ silver. I know, you rich by now and picking up silver is beneath you......NOPE  Never is, never will be, trust me, it helps  When I hunt I know when to leave when I reach 100K in money that I have picked up, and this happens in about an hour or 2.

Don't waste monsters:

What do I mean by this? If your leveling in tombats, and you die, you have to make your way back. During this trip you will go by a bunch of winged snakes. Kill everyone that is in your path. A lot of mining is luck, and if you do this every time, one times you will just has to get lucky. I did this for so long, the best thing I found being a unique club. Until one day I get a DB drop. I know, how lucky. But that "Lucky Drop" wouldn't have came to me if I didn't kill it when I had the chance; so don't skip over monsters, because anything can happen. And if your on your way to an elf ape spawn, kill the monkeys on the way to, I have found a couple of +1's doing this.


Part 4. Making money without mining or hunting:

"It takes money to make money". So true. In this section you will be taught to take the little bit of money you have saved up, and double or triple it.

Recommended starting cash: 1-2 Mil.

How is this done?

This is all done in the market. In order to do this you will need to know how much each item is worth, so if you are unsure about something ask a friend or ask in Guild chat. If I am on I will let you know.

To start this, look at EVERY shop in the market, and look for items that are off priced, at least 200-300K below what they are worth.

Here are some examples of me doing this:

B> +1 Tao robe 150K
S> +1 Tao robe 900K
B> +1 Archer Hat 250K
S> +1 Archer hat 450K
B> Refined Phoenix Gem 700K
S> Refined Phoenix Gem 1 Mil
B> 3 Timber Vouchers 40K Each
S> 3 Timber Vouchers 900K Each
B> 20 Rosewood vouchers 40K Each (800K)

Turn 10 Rosewood vouchers into a Timber voucher at NPC in market

S> 2 Timber Vouchers 900K Each.

The above were just a couple of examples. The first four were lucky finds that you won¡¯t see to often, but check every shop just incases. The last example, the one with the rosewoods, this is something you see often. Timber Vouchers (for making a house) Sell at 900K VERY fast. And it takes 10 Rosewood Vouchers to make 1 Timber Voucher. This being said, Rosewood vouchers are accordingly worth around 80-90K each. Even so, a lot of times you will see them priced at 40-50K. Buying 10 at this price is HIGHLY profitable. Even if you cant buy 10, buy wat u can and save them until u can buy more at a similar price. I have made so many Mils doing this I can even remember how much.


Part 5. Know Your Prices:

If you price things to high, they will never sell, and the good items that you have found become useless. If you price to low, they will sell very quick, but you wont get their full value. And if you don't now the price of things, you can get taken advantage of very easily. On the other hand....if you know your prices you can sell things at the right price, and do one more thing. This "one more thing" isn't the nicest thing, and some of you may not want to do it. I have done it, I love it, and I think its funny. It's ripping off noobs. The best way to do this is to look at noobs equipment, and see what they have. If they have something good, offer them "a lot " of money for it. I have only got a chance to do this twice, because noobs don't always have great stuff. But when you get that noob that just got a real lucky drop, u got urself a very good deal.

I have bought a +1 bag off a noob for 160K, I told him it was worth 150K, and I was giving him extra to be nice, and because I liked him. And since he was all noobish and what not, 160K was a lot of money to him. A +1 Bag is worth 2.2 Mil.

I also bought an elite Bag from a noob at 1.8 Mil mil. Boy was he happy and excited when I offered him that money for the bag. This is how the conversation went:

"Almost 2 Million Dollars, that's a lot of money huh?"

"Yea, I cant believe your going to give me that much. Thank you so much "

"Np, I like helping out lower levels"

"Wow, most high lvls are mean, thank you "

The poor kid, little did he know that the bag was worth 5.5 Mil ;)


Part 6. Who says you need to be lucky while hunting? :

Hunting is mostly luck, but you cant blame it all on the fact that your "UnLucky". For a while I thought I was just unlucky, until I discovered what I was doing wrong. I would spend 2 or 3 hours hunting at elf apes, find nothing, and just stay there. If a place is really dry, I mean REALLY dry, and u don't find even 1 met or even a refined item, you have to switch spots, try another species, try another spawn, CHANGE IS GOOD. Also, after u find an elite, or a +1 and if you're going to continue to hunt, change spawn/species. Better to go to a whole new area instead of just changing spawns though. Odds are, you wont find something real good at the same spot twice in a row. So its not all luck, u gotta be smart about thing also.


Part 7. Mining.....Not a waste of time:

Mining does take a while, but you don't have to sit there and stare at the screen while your character mines. It is good to make a secondary character, and have him mine while you play on your main. Check back often though, because PK ers are evil and they do evil things in mines. Also, change your mining spot every so often, it helps. I also personally find that mining against walls produces better results, but this is just something I do, its not proven or anything. (But hey, I have found like 6 or 7 gems....).


Part 8. Making Supers with your money:

To make an elite item that is under level 60 (or it could be 70, not sure) in market costs 6 DB's. That is 240 Mil. To do it in TC costs 1 DB. The difference is, in Twin City it has a great chance of failing the higher the level of the item. And of course you are going to want sockets in your items, and it is 1 DB to add 1 socket to a weapon, and 5 DB's for a second. That's another 240 Mil.  Now here is the way I did it, the better way.

Found a low-level unique two-socket weapon (I was lucky and found it, u can buy one for about 1.5 Mil).

Took the lvl 10 BS in TC and used two DB's to make it super.

Upgraded it to my level in market (in TC mets fail almost all the time on supers)

Ended up with a super two socket for 6 Mil + the cost of mets to get it to my level.

Now this will not always work out like this, 1 DB could fail. 2 DB's could fail. Even 4 could fail. But even if it takes u 5 DB's, it is cheaper then the market. A little tip if u got db/s don't waist them as every one knows dbz now a days are worth heaps like 40mill/40kk what ever you want to call it.

The other thing that could make u easy money is buying db packages of the Internet the 5-db package is the one I would suggest you to buy. 5dbz x 40mill=200mill/200kk

I would suggest try you are luck on lotto use the hole db sometimes you get really bad stuff in the beginning and then you get great stuff my cousin won a elite1 soc earring sold it like for heaps.

He also won a super necklace, which is worth a lot!!!!! And when I say a lot I mean a lot. He is gangsta4lif3 in dreams-glory.

With dbz they are very tempting to use but I suggest keeping one or two in bank and don't touch them.

As prices go higher you can sell it for more.

When I fist hunted my first dragon ball I wasted it on blessing stones and bad items I wouldn't suggest getting praying stones at all.

Garments are a great way to make money you buy as cheap as possible and sell it for more cash be reasonable and sell for good price don't be 2 expensive and as I always say if you sell at least 100k of people buy it more.

If you see a noob selling something he found (a lucky noob that found super-unique-elite-super /socs or a good item use the advantage of price knowing the item might worth 1kk and you buy it for 300k most games its hard to get money so yeah.

So this is the end of my Great Guide To Money, I hope you enjoyed it and it helps you.

I am ~ASiAN~ from Wildkingdom under Kylin ask me if you need anything I am an old player so I know a lot. See you around guys.
