Plat farming locations off the beaten path?

TBF, blocks of ore were nice but the drop rate of them made the overall % plat from them kinda low when I was farming gobs (sol a though, not perma).

Like, I could have 3 bags full of crap, with 2.5 bags of FS weaps, some bricks of ore, and maybe like 3 blocks of ore.

I would go to perma with my mage and rake in anywhere from 500 to near 800 plat per set of 3 to 5 rounds in the preacher/archeologist areas, before I had to gate out and sell. The 300 plat swing was usually due to how many blocks I'd get, which was usually 2 to 6 or 7 per set. The rest of the loot was made up of bricks, fine steel, bronze, runes and even a stack of Tares Lichen gets me 15p.

I'm going to miss those blocks. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Might want to give Erudin guards a try, they supposedly drop gems now (what kind tho!?!?!)

killed a TON of guards last night in Erudin and Erudin Palace after i read that... not one single one dropped any gems... so it is VERY VERY VERY rare.... if it all [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.][You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Paineel guards are almost always camped these days. The camps are SK, Bank, Palace, Library.

AoE kurns and sell stacks of bone chips. Bard is great for this.

Droga used to be my goto empty spot to farm easy cash spots. Earring of Essence from the Soothsayer... Gauntlets of Potence from the bodyguard... Idol of the Thorned from the Chief... plus you get skins and salts that people are paying big for right now to get Chardok faction.

But since Chardok update, Droga isn't a good spot to go since it's full of 60s grinding faction.

Grobb guards are very easy to do for some classes... 16+ mobs to kill in your rotation... drop 15-16pp each.

If you're lower leveled, then bone chips are always a decent source of starter income... mid level range, goblin ears from HHK sell very well.

I used to always go to Sol A and Permafrost because goblins tend to drop 50pp ore from time to time.
