I see a lot of posts about people buying weapons with LOH for like 15million and I'm just curious how you folks that have a monk as your main get that much? I just started act 3 inferno so I could only farm act 1/2 to money so I'm just curious if there's something I don't know about farming or have you people just gotten lucky? Cause I'm broke. The most I've ever sold an item for was 600,000. Any farming tips would be appreciated.
Meh, the most I sold anything was like 85k, but I've only started selling items cause I'm in Hell Act 3 and almost level 60. My guess would be to sell the rares you get from elite packs with you 5 stack NV. I personally don't know any gold farming spots, well I knew of people doin some parts, but most of them has been hotfixed by blizz, so maybe just farm and sell alot!
Is it just me or do butcher runs and festering woods elite valor buff stacking yield the actual quickest actual gold on the ground from creatures? I mean things in act 1 seem to drop it so often. You can kill things there and practically never die so your gold goes up slowly over time and every once and a while you'll find a teir 1 or so item with good rolled stats like all resist vitality+ primary stat and sell that for a few million (for example).
You don't find good weapons to sell in act 1. you basically identify them to vendor them.
Act 3 and act 4 you probably die enough, in the process of gearing up, that your gold stays neutral, and once every few days you get lucky. I'm a rough patch where I've done 20 siegebreaker runs, maybe 4-5 valor stacked act 4+diablo runs and 10 shire runs and have found dozens of teir 3 rare armors and weapons but haven't rolled the right affixes on any one item, many potential riches but no such luck as of late. My second playthrough act 4 farming up to and through diablo, I found a 1300 1h sword that sold for like 50 million gold and since then my main has been made in the shade, it can farm anything though I have to wonder why I bother do it now that I can.... I hope they do a good job on pvp but I'm not holding onto any high hopes for it.
Either farm easy content like act 1 and make small consistent gains, or farm act 3/4 and make no gains until you make a killing every once and a while. Get lucky. There's nothing more to it. They're nerfing all the gimmick farming spots. Resplendent spawn chances etc getting nerfed, chance of pots dropping gold getting nerfed, and some of the changes I either imagine are hotfixed and aren't, or were hotfixed and they didn't bother to bring us up to date.
