Default suggestion for level 29 druids on how to make money

Realistically I have no idea how profitable this would be, but here's the basic idea:

step 1: bind yourself in OOT
step 2: wait by seafury isle or some other popular location
step 3: offer to teleport people out of OOT for inflated prices

If you don't feel like sitting in OOT forever waiting for someone in need of a port, you could give yourself a clever name like "Ootporter" (but obviously not something so clearly in violation of the naming policy) so that people could send you a tell for a ridiculously overpriced port at any time.

Honestly, a jewelery drop from a cyclops can sell for over 100 plat to a vendor, so I'm sure most people would pay that much just to get the fuck out of OOT without having to wait forever for the boat.

My strategy is to quad seafuries and advertise ports while I med back up. Obviously this would not be applicable to level 29 druids.

Doesn't porting cost lots of mana or something? That's why I always turn on manasong while people are porting me. Seems like you'd just make more money medding up and killing more seafuries.

depends on what people pay and *if* the seafuries drop their loot.

Seems to me, from the way people bitch, most folks who kill them can gate.

Nah, not comparatively at 50+. Definitely at 29...

From a 29 druids standpoint, I wouldn't port for money unless its while im camping something. Porting doesn't net you tons of cash on this server as everyone and their mom is trying to do it between the druids and wizards, and at 29, your porting list is a bit small.

I personally would camp and sell Paw of Opallas, rings seperately or the whole paw. You can do Gatorscale leggings camps, probably Mammoth Hide Cloak camps, etc. There are a lot of items in that level range you can camp, just keep a "Porting for Donations!" macro up and just cycle it a bit. If your camping something, just bind there, port/gate.

Hope it helps = )

Edit: If you want specific things to camp, Holler at me in game or PM me, I'll bite.
