Check out the plat making guides on the p99 wiki. Also suggest bandit sash quest in Qeynos when you're at that level. Made a few hundred plat on my first character there.

Go to EC, and you get free plvl from asking random dudes for regen and DS

Thanks, guys. I have a few plat thanks to foraging. A few meaning a FEW lol. I think up to lvl 4 I've managed to wrangle 20pp. Not great. In the bank for spells.

Default Where?

Heyas!

You picked a good class to play to make money as your first, it’s just going to take you some time to get to the levels where the primary function Druids provide becomes available to them (29+). Keep your head up, check out the guides previously listed and the wiki in general. It’s going to be a tough start, but if you put in enough time, you’ll get there slowly but surely.

Also it would be helpful to know what area you are based in for potential benefactors (of which this server has many).

Best wishes!

It mightve sounded like I was trolling, but I wasn't. The 100% most effective way to start from nothing is to get to EC, get free high level buffs and kill your way to 15 in 1-2 days. Extra bonus, people often give out low level items. Then hit up like LFay sisters, where you will make about 1k plat by the time you out level them (about lvl 19).

Ya, like the sisters aren't going to be camped to death. And don't count on getting buffs. My cleric only got good buffs maybe one third of the times I asked nicel in the tunnel. You are lucky to get a SoW these days, especially if you aren't playing primetime.

I have levelled at least 6 chars in EC 3/4-15 within 1-2 days each with that method, the last being about 1.5 months ago. Often, there is some bored high lvl shaman who even advertises for you to hail them for buffs. Otherwise, just sitting in tunnel ent /say Anyone casting DS for a lowbie trying to level? will net you buffs pretty fast. Even if you have to wait like 5-10 mins, its still by far way faster than trying to just smack things as a non twink lvl 5.

Its still worth it to try and get sisters camp. It is the best money camp period until you get high enough (like 40's) to easily farm giants (since goblins dont drop HQ bricks anymore). As a druid, you would have sow by then. You can bind either at your XP spot or in LFay and just pop back and forth.
