took like 2 weeks of farming Wind2 and selling them overnight to make 2mill
then I spent 500k on a cheap stone(since somone likes too overlook everything...) of int (lvl3) and changed it too a stone, re sold it for 800k, I then found some wep elixers and sold them for 300k each (I had 3) i had 4.1mill by then, then I continued buying/finding cheap stones/and or tablets and selling them. Which is how I eventually got 50mill by lvl48, by doing sh*tloads of stalling. By lvl63 I had 78mill total. Most I have ever had was 103mill.

Then, when I quit...I gave it too my guild everyone got at least 3mill. :) (yes even the lvl13 noobs)

took me a month, i had never played a mmo before, and this was my first time with sro (heck, i didnt understand the concept of stalls for like 3 weeks, and i didnt know how to do alchemy for like 3 months)
now i have been playing for 9 months, this is my second character, sp farmed and lvl 69, i have many valuable weapons, and about 120mil in the bank (alchemy is the key to riches in this game, and luck too)

It took about 20 minutes of grinding during the events. But normally unless you get super lucky, it takes awhile or at least until your 30+ as the drops before then suck.

Unfortunately true,

Heh, I remember at lvl26 I was dirt poor (only had like 96k, which down alot because of pots) but by lvl30 when I got my nukes, I died less and there was less need of hp pots. Just more need of mp pots..so I only bought like 100 hp pots but like 600mp pots.

you spend 500k on a tablet?

i usually make a mil a day. start out early before i go to my classes in the morning...buy all the good deals in jangan and resell during the entire day...usually make a few mil a day. Not always but usually i pull 7mil a week. But i'm poor cuz i'm supporting three chars of mine full sos.... and i like to spend money on wolves (they will be the end of me).

It took me alittle less than a year of very relaxed playing, and a 6 month break.

So in reality it's more like 3 months, but it took about a year of real life.

If I sell everything from my moneymaking affair I'll get around 45mil and I started with 18, it takes time.

How to do it:

1) Buy D2 chests from the npc for 4500 gold
2) Rondo them for elements (4-5 lvl1 of 1kind; 6-7 lvl2 of 1 kind): EG:1 chest => 4 fire 1, 5 water 1, 6 earth 2 and 7 wind2.
3) after a while you stall the elements.
I stall them for the following prices.
Wind2: 450pieces = 1mil
Other lvl2: 500 pieces = 250k
Lvl 1: 1000 pieces = 250k

Ok stalling takes a while, but it's worth it imo.

Starting out, if you are after making $$$, level as fast as you can so you can grind on GREEN mobs that drop better cash and better items. You can probably make a mill without leaving town by buying low/selling high but I don't stall/shop a lot, so like to make money and character progress at the same time by grinding. :)

When I first started playing it took me a few weeks to get my 1st million, but now just a few days with a new char b/c know the ropes.

Because he gave me all his money. :D

On Rome it took less than a week when I got my first mil. PsYch's generosity ftw. :D :love:

So poor beggars on Rome, stop spamming '10k plssssssssss', just ask PsYch if you need a bunch of money.
