I am so freaking Poor

aklairenb14_ESO
Im level 47 and broke. i bought 110 bank slots and 100 carrying cap in the game recipe for cooking and that is it. I have 3k to my name. I have started crafting and my guild has 300 people. Ive not sold any food purple and blue 50 stat. I like to pvp but cant because of the horse issue. I wish this game had fast missions like SWG where you can make some coin. Now i think i have to be like the porter run around and collect resource because my food is not selling. I have been trying to save for one of those 47k horses instead of wasting 17k.

    If you want to make money, do not craft...sell those drops, they add up. Even vendoring them should accumulate money pretty quickly.

    The market is ripe out there! Prices vary so much that flipping items can be quite profitable. I made a purchase of 30k worth of items from one player, sold those same items to another player for 250k. 220k profit just by being able to find good deals. With no global ah (which I love that there isn't one) prices vary from zone to zone, player to player, and vary by time. Buying something during primetime you may find other players buying the same items for more than you, buying when no other buyers are on will usually get you the lowest prices. It honestly is quite easy to make gold in this game compared to some other mmos. You simply have to invest some time and effort into making it.

    That was probably dirty money from the item duping bug.

    Actually it was simply by flipping Argentum, Copper, Palladium, and Daedric Hearts. I was able to find a seller that does nothing but farm for those items as well as the daedric and ancient elf motifs. This player rushed through the main story to be able to get to the 3rd alliance zone and farm these items. I run 2 trade guilds that use our guild bank as another place to buy/sell. Me and my co-gm go around looking for good deals and find suppliers at low prices then place the items in the guild bank to sell to our members at decent prices instead of having to spend an hour in zone chat looking for it themselves. But if I see a player in zone chat buying these items for 1k ea for the first 3 and 2.5k ea per heart I'm definitely going to sell some to him. As not many people had made it to the 3rd alliance zones yet these items were very rare and in huge demand. Just because people are able to make gold in the game does not mean they profited from the duping glitch. I hate that so many things got duped as it hurt the prices for the items I was selling. There is very little profit to be made from flipping the actual motifs anymore as the market was flooded with them by the dupers. Believe me, I hate that they were able to get so much gold by cheating while I had to do it the legit way. But hopefully they will get banned for cheating and us players that invest the time to make gold in the game the legitimate way won't get bunched in with these dupers.

    have been thinking of going there, but how does pve work in Cyrodil, with 1000 others around doing pvp?

    can I log in there without them slaying me while im on a pve mission?

    Do you repair your gear when it breaks? If so, stop doing that, and just craft new stuff, or wait for stuff to drop (even white gear). The repair cost is quite high and often not worth the amount you pay. This alone will save you alot of gold.

    Buy nothing. Except bag and bank space. Craft all/find better gear. Don't repair, craft gear like Pokebreaker up here also said. Loot EVERY barrel, trunk etc. I never had money issues this way. I also level every crafting skill (except Enchanting cos I believe they will improve exp rates at some time).
