Money Maker
Hi guys,
Old school EQ player here, had a 60 bard on Sullon Zek. Playing on the non-pvp server and looking for a first class that will make me money for my future alts. I know people say Druids are good for ports, but exactly how much money do they actually make from ports. My playtime is at 8pm to midnight pacific time zone. Will there be enough activity in porting at that time to make a decent pile of money? I only solo so I was looking at Druid or Necro as a plat farmer. Thanks for any answers. | ||

Mages are pretty good for farming pp

If you plan on making it to 60 and playing on blue then play the class you want to play endgame from the start. If you're playing druid just to make plat off ports you're a sick individual.
I have a mage in a mid 50's. Mage pet is strong and smacks most things down with ease other wise chain summoning or chain nuking finishes the target. But mage doesn't have all the safety nets that necro does. necro has fear, snare, root, FD just to name a few that the mage doesn't. As much as I love my mage I wish I went necro to open up some alternative solo hunting options. But as I said in the beginning, I recommend you play the class you plan to finish with, not a plat making alt. Blue isn't a new server so there is lots of gear for cheap and lots of plat which makes easy sales on items. Welcome to Project 1999 and I hope you enjoy your stay! | ||

Yes you'll make enough on a druid. Everyone uses the Skyfire ramp in OT as a hub to get places so bind yourself there and wait for the LF port messages in ooc etc.
Probably worth joining Dial A Port. Also considering your pvp background its worth mentioning that the pvp server here should be tried; roll a character and see if you like it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] | ||

We could always use more PST players. Make a Druid and look up DaP.

Porting will probably net you 20-50p per port/person, 100p per EJ evac. Very easy and will outpace Necro farming until mid 40s. Once fine steel and better vendor trash start dropping for the Necro, you'll soon be amassing a small fortune. The only caveat is farming specific named drops, where Enchanter and Shaman outpace Druid in particular. Enchanter is nice because they can be geared on the cheap, while Shaman "require" ~150-200k to really shine.

Play whatever is most fun to you, plat comes with levels. Esp if you think you may wanna see raid content, don't wanna get stuck playing a role you don't like.

Depending on the hour of the day, you can net up-to 200-300 plat per hour. | |||
