Something interesting i think is happening, alot of people are making money from each other in everquest2 because of a repeatable quest which alot of people use as their primary method of producing wealth. What quest am I talking about? The wholesaler Quest, available from every tradeskill instance. If you havent heard about this quest you obviously dont check many posts on this site or any other site for that matter because i see it almost daily!
Alot of people have mentioned the quest but not many have mentioned the other side which i must say is extremely more profitable as you can run this all night and make a fortune. Firstly you need to get your havesting, mining, and other collection skills high enough to havest from Tier2 Resource Locations (Antonica and The Commonlands).
I spend about 2-3hrs out of my day playing everquest collecting resources from these places. The resources I collect are:
Severed Maple
Iron Clusters
Electrum Clusters
Tuber Strands
Rough Turquoise
Average Quality Animal Pelts
When i go out collecting my aim is to get approx. 50 of each type of resource. Afterwards I go and shuve everything in my bank and go and do XP grinding and hunting and looting and all that and maybe do some writs with my guild, whilst getting flamed for being scottish by my guild on teamspeak.
Each night when im about to log-off I go to my inn house and start selling the resources ive collected each day. I Price everything at 40copper each, this means that when people come to buy from me they will pay 48copper at the broker, 40 of which goes to me and 8 which goes to the broker. Now lets do some math!
(Number of Resource) * (Number of Different Resource Collected) * (Price) = Profit
50 * 6 * 40 = 12,000
Now: 100 Copper = 1 Silver So 12,000 Copper = 120 Silver = 1.2 Gold
Every Night I sell out completely! It is always bought, so its not as risky as some other money making strategies ive seen on this site, like the buy low sell High strategy – that looks like it could go seriously wrong! GL Commander on making your profit from that strat
Anyway the number of people you see running back and forth from the npc to the broker each day is incrediable you will always sell it all! Howver it is time consuming and is boring but on the bright side you will be rich indeed and you will also have a large amount of your map explored
