Get Rich Quick

Buy low, sell high ...
Find out what people are looking for, go through the guild stores and look for a good deal, resell with profit.

When Psijic Ambrosia fragments were 10k+ a piece in zone chat and 75k+ for the complete recipe i made tons of money by buying fragments for 7-8k in stores and then selling complete recipes for 75k.

Instant 25k profit every time i sold a recipe.

A lot of trading comments but I'm only level 38, would anyone even want my stuff and if they did would I get enough return to make it more worthwhile than selling gear to vendors?

Sturdy body pieces, purple jewelry and reinforced/sturdy/infused shields will sell the most.

I'm just selling to venders atm, sure I'll get into trading with real people at some point but now don't even know what's what, just wanna get this house so I can get back to questing and enjoying the freedom again.

Well there is your problem. Selling certain set items to people will net you way more gold than selling to vendors. The amount of gold vendors gone you is very low.

I couldn't imagine grinding my gold that way. I would suggest buying low and selling high but you really don't have enough gold to do that, plus it doesn't seem like you are in a trade guild.

Go farm resource nodes and sell the unrefined material to other players. That would be much quicker than your current grinding.

There's plenty of items with no level restrictions that you can buy/sell/trade.
Like i said above, find things that people want. And you can buy/sell CP160 gear all day long, even at level 38.
If you're not into crafting, sell gold tempers you get from deconstructing gear.

But be advised that good gear is expensive to buy. I'd start with other items that you can buy in the 5k-10k range.
If you can make 1k profit on a 5k buy and you move 20 of those you'll be 20k richer, simple as that.

I got 50k in like 2 hours just farming obsidian scar (public dungeon in rivenspire) and selling everything.

The fastest way to make money is to flip items. Buy low/sell high. The best long term solution is to do crafting writs on multiple toons everyday. It is not a get rich quick scheme, but it works. I make 30-40k a day in just gold from the quests, not even considering the gold mats or master writs that drop.

If you are looking to grind gold, the best thing to do is pick something of value that you are capable of getting and grind that. The new motifs in morrowind will certainly sell well. Green Pact, Plague Doctor, and Necropotence all sell extremely well. Pick a zone where they drop and farm public Dungeons and Dolmens. Lastly, you can make a reasonable amount of gold by fencing items. You can only do so much a day, but the gold is not bad.

Just farm nodes for a few hours. Alchemy plants always sell well. Raw mats also sell well. You can also refine the raw mats and get golden tempers which sell super quickly.

Tryxus

- Farming: dailies, delves, world bosses or dolmens. There's always gear that's high in demand (Necro, Sun, ...) as well as motif pages that you can obtain. Both of those should fetch you a nice price when you put them up for sale
- Gold Grinding: I find that both the DB Contracts as well as the TG Dailies (Tip Board) can earn you a lot of gold (as well as some XP)
- Writs: A good source of Gold upgrade materials which you can sell
- Fishing: Perfect Roe
- Deal farming: go by Guild Traders and look for good items that are (severely) underpriced. Buy them and sell them for profit

Get a pal to carry you through skyreach and you will get decent gold but also level up to 160 if you want to sell gear that drops. Under 160 gear has little market value.

Some non level dependent things like flowers, motifs, fishing bait, and paintings can sell for good money. Furnishing mats are pricey too but you probably need them to make furniture.

Price check on google, sell in zone. Easier than you may think.

CP 10 - CP 150 gear is worthless, but I've found some lower level items (level 40-48) tend to sell at higher prices than the CP 160 counterpart. Some players are looking all over the place for specific sets to twink out their Blackwater Blade characters.

Selling, or buying and reselling has been and always be one of the best, if not THE best, way to make money. I got rich in EQ that way and subsequent MMO's. However what I realized is that the game got a lot more.. UNFUN doing that. It was like work. So in this game I have been completely ignoring player interactions when it came to buying and selling. If I find something useful, I will just keep it for alts instead. If I get duplicates I'll just try to sell them dirt cheap in zone chat to people that's looking to buy cheap and resell for profit.

I am personally a motif broker. There are tons of motifs that sell anywhere for 10k to 100k for each chapter. Each has a specific grind to earn them....many are quite easy. To play this game:

1. Check guild stores for motifs and familiarize yourself with the types that are expensive. (My initial recommendations are Minotaur, order of the hour, draugr, thieves guild, dark brotherhood and abahs watch...profitable w easy grinds).

2. Look up how these drop. For example, Minotaur and order of the hour drop in gold goad world boss dailies reward chests.

3. Build up a collection of these...maybe save up 10-15 so that you have something to load your guild store with.

4. Join a guild that maintains a weekly trader, preferably in a good location (Wayrest, mounrhold, Rawlkha, Elden root). Expect to pay a monthly rental fee of 5-10k for store access.

After that, earn some motifs on a regular basis and keep your store populated. If you go get two new chapters to sell each week...that's about an hour of play time...you should be clearning $40k minimum, then of course you can learn what other stuff is valuable and add more stuff to your store.

I thought this thread was going to be a khajiit pyramid scheme plan.... a bit disappointed.

Anyway,
A stack of soul gems sell to vendors for I think 6k? They fill really quickly at dolmens if you tag every mob with the soul gem skill (forgot the name).

There is always stealing and/or turning in writs.

@max_only this one knows of an Akaviri prince with 10,000,000 crowns unclaimed in his will. This one could organise to transfer these funds to you for a small fee to cover operational costs of 50,000 crowns.

Sounds legit. Where do I sign?

By the by, have you heard of this amazing all natural organic locally sourced Moon Sugar Juice? See you get two friends to buy cases and they get two friends to buy cases and they get 2 friends etc. Everyone in your ladder (not pyramid btw it's more like a ziggurat) makes money but the more people you have under you in the ladder selling this amazing health supplement, the faster you can earn Super Diamond Malachite level sales bonuses. Our Super Diamond Malachite members are top earners going on trips of a life time to the Shivering Isles and more!

That's not all! Act now to get in on a lucrative time share oppurtunity in beautiful Coldharbour!

Been grinding for a week to get 65k for my house doing loads of dungeons selling EVERYTHING and getting nowhere fast, all the youtube videos are crap and just full of flashy stuff designed to get subs but none actually help.

Suppose what I'd like to know is there anywhere I can go grind for gold at a much quicker rate than doing dungeons or does fast cash not exist?

Lockboxes and cabinets. Steal everything that's not nailed down (don't get caught) and then hit up the refuge and go to the fence to sell your stolen goods. Helps to have a few points in trafficker passive(4pts = 140 items/day) in the legerdemain skill line.

jlboozer

Yeah, join a trading guild and learn to sell. If on ps4 NA I can get you into some that keep major city traders. Message me on psn if interested (jlboozer). It's the only way to millions!

I average around 80-120k a day...js!

Invincible

30k a day per toon selling stolen goods, probably the easier gold farming routine to get in to for new players. It's how I started. Crafting dailies are good as well so long as rnjesus is on your side. At lower levels it really is tough making gold, but once you hit 50 everything in the game literally throws gold at you.

Oh, group finder dungeons?

No I meant delves and public dungeons. 4-man dungeons won't get you rich quick, all the good stuff is Bound.

Tried a public dungeon for first time and its way better for gold, drops from ads are like 30 gold each instead of 7 plus I dont need to put up with low level DPS who would struggle to kill mudcrabs.

A bit difficult being a healer but I reckon a few more levels and it should be a lot easier and a much less frustrating way to earn some coin.

Argah

Mind you still taking a while, played from I posted this yesterday till 2am and only made 5k taking me to 37k, the grind is real.

Yep. With skill points spend on proper passives (Legerdemain & if you have access to dlc - Thieves Guild) you can make like 10 - 15 K daily (RNG dependant) per character in like 30 min - 1,5 H.

Not got any DLC, just the base game.

Well you are not loosing much... Thieves Guild passive "Haggling" only gives up to 10% increased value of fenced items. If you steal and fence white & green items - it is barley noticeable. Only blue & purple items (that don't drop that often) can make a difference but still - it is not much. In the end with this passives if you fence 140 items (max daily limit with Legerdemain passive) it is like 500 - 800 gold more...

It's worth noting that 30k is 120 blue stolen items. That will take a while, even if you get lucky and find one purple item.

Shadow_Viper_vX

Which YouTube videos have you watched? I found alot of the gold making guides quite helpful.

Steal items and sell them to a fence, great way to make gold solo without needing other players.

Also start doing at least level 1 crafting writs each day for EACH character.

downset

Do morrowind dailies and open chests there - i made several 100k on a lvl 20 toon over 3 days by just selling all the new motifs and recipes you get - prices are still quite high for them.

Come on friend you can't make money without using the trade system in game. Everything else is going to be a grind because actual players are the only ones who will find value in what you are selling.

I'm only level 38 was planning to wait until highest cp before jumping into trading, it's my endgame.

Level 38 is your problem. You get more gold and better items when you get to CP levels, with the best at CP160.

A house, and even 65k is pretty difficult to muster up without using trading. Vendors give crap gold for everything, so there's nothing you really can do. However, even just starting - you'll likely have nothing of value to trade anyway.

My best advice is to wait on the house - you can get a free one which should suffice until you can earn enough money. If that's not enough then prepare to be cut off from genuine questing for a while during which time you punish yourself with grindfest to sell items to vendors for 12 gold a piece.

Just gonna keep at it, the house is perfect it's Hammersmith Bungalow I think and in a great area with an arena next to it and a little craft area too.

Not really. I stick to busting open chests it takes an hour tops.
