Farming the new trials provides good gold when you sell what you find.

Let's you actually test builds and stuff like that while earning gold.

If you have the DLC, you can start the dark brotherhood storyline at whatever level. You can get skill points from the quest, but more importantly, you can learn how to blade of woe people.

Killing them, leveling up your legerdemain simultaneously, and pickpocketing for loot and then laundering it is a consistent way to make money without having to get involved with the in-game market.

questing zones you over leveled or doing daily quests, or any quests in vet zones, gives good gold. You can make more then 25000k doing that. Questing is one of the means of getting gold. There are so many things you can do to get gold just go out and quest or explore or do daily quests, and you will get the gold along the way

I only PvP and have less then 100k. Can't even upgrade my armor to gold, not buy new pieces. I am luckily my own crafter (only 8 traits because I don't have money to buy training equipment for the 9th). Being in a guild helps me get the armor pieces from drops which I require.

I do have a surplus of AP which I wish I could switch to gold on a 1:1 ratio. I got 5 million AP and I got more then enough siege weapons.

I can't join trader guilds because that means I have to be consistent in selling stuff, but thanks to bad RNG from my last lootboxes I was kicked due to to few sells.

Making money is hard for some people

5 Million AP? Buy Akaviri motifs and sell them.
Most people sell with 5:1 so current prices would give you 1 millioen for whole set of motifs.
Of course finding someone willing to spent that much is difficult, but with lower prices
it will be easier. I've spend 300 K yesterday for some missing parts...

I have been gone for abut 5 months and have missed a lot.

Where do I buy akaviri motifs?

Farm old orsinium for rubedo, sell rubedo.

I make a fair amount of gold from looting chests, running around gathering materials. Alchemy reagents sell quite well.

Try to join a guild and sell extra recipes and materials.

Do some of everything:

* Sell loot on farming runs (if you have the merchant this makes it easier) - I do zombie runs in Alik'r Desert (as EP)
* Do quests - with several chars this can give a good portion of gold back
* Sell motifs - Akaviri if you PvP, Abah's Watch in TG, Trinimac in Orsinium
* Farm mats and sell them + gold mats from refining
* Max out TG and steal stuff
* Find a trading guild (a vendor on a good spot helps a lot)
* Run trials - you get some good stuff here and som BoP items can be sold in the group for 50-500k

I only pvp and have over 3 million gold saved up. All i do is sell my rewards and spend ap on the pvp crates then i sell whatever i dont need. I also do my writs everyday

Good point - forgot to add writs.

There's a question of resources but some times I run 4-6 writs on 9 players. This gives me about 20-30k+. Combine it with some Covetous Countess and it can be nearly 40k a day + money from the motifs they drop. These motifs don't sell as good any longer but most of them sell for about 15-30k.

I don't struggle too much with gold.

But... I invested all my skills into all my crafting so I can make basically anything, which makes it easier. I'm also part of two well positioned trade guilds...

Here's basically what I do:

Harvest every node and sell gold mats at guild stores - these sell quickest.
Sell motifs you don't need, rare ones sell better of course.
Make highest level potions and sell at guild stores.
Make Nurn armour / weapons and sell it at guild stores.
Make highest level food and sell it at guild stores.
If you can't craft, sell the reagents, nurncrux and all the standard mats instead, if you don't want them.
If you can be bothered fishing, sell perfect roe.
Also you can buy stuff cheap if you cand find it, and sell it for more but it's a slow process and usually takes time to sell.

No guild
If you are not in a guild, then quest, or farm, pick up everything, and sell everything you don't want.

You can also make weapons and armour using low level mate and sell them to vendors, I think low level bows are something like 3-6 pieces of wood but sell for 40-70 gold, or something... It's been awhile since I've done that.

Also steal things. But don't pick up anything white, only pick up green or anything over 100 gold, and put skills into ledgerman so you can sell more and earn more from the sales.

Do dailies.
Do writs.

That's all I can really think of at the moment.
