100M+ into Farming, any suggestions?


Kaphias

Recommended Posts

So I've gone from 20m to 100M over the past 6 months without even trying, 40M from an accidental "investment" and 40M from MTK. The only skill I train is Farming, I have no intentions to ever do anything else, it's all too boring. So, I know basically what I want to do, but I'd like some help from those who know the markets better than me.

 

I'll be buying either Papaya or Palm seeds, Calquat seeds, and some sort of herb. Don't need suggestions there. Questions:

1. Should I buy all the seeds I can afford (or with ~15M of) now, or buy them gradually?

2. I would like a herb seed suggestion. I'm really only going for XP, so Torstols don't look to bad now... will they remain decent in the long term? Or should I go with something cheap like Toadflax? Or buy in 100s and change as the prices do?

 

Thanks. ;)

Don't bother with herbs for xp, go with fruit and regular trees.

DK drops (solo/LS): 66 hatchets, 14 archer rings, 13 berserker rings, 17 warrior rings, 12 seerculls, 13 mud staves, 7 seers rings

QBD drops: 1 kite, 2 visages, 4 dragonbone kits, 3 effigies, lots of crossbow parts

CR vs. CLS threads always turn into discussions about penis size.

It's not called a Compensation Longsword for nothing.

I've sent a 12k combat mission to have Aiel assassinated (poor bastard isn't even Pincers-tier difficulty).

I may end up doing that, I'll get that all sorted out when I can spend a hour or so working on calculations in my spreadsheet. I've always found regular trees too expensive and slow considering I'd only be doing one, maybe two runs per day.

You should always do herbs, they're good xp and money. Even buying magic and palm seeds, herbs can still keep your cash pile high.

Also look into planting poison ivy bushes, they're the same ammount of work as trees (just plant, check, replant) and make money.

 

Atm, Torstols are a very profitable herb to farm, assuming you have the average yield of around 6-8 per seed. If prices change too much, you can always revert back to a safer seed, like Kwuarm or Cantadine.
