[QUOTE=hunter_killah;15966380]Anyone have any idea how to make good money without dying? I'm a level 4 Archer.[/QUOTE] I haven't found a good way yet, except for checking the home's salary chest every now and then for a few hundred gold coins and some items.
I am a pianist and I can't train my Performer skill because everytime I play someone throws a rock at me, killing me instantly.
[QUOTE=boomyshoe;15966742]I am a pianist and I can't train my Performer skill because everytime I play someone throws a rock at me, killing me instantly.[/QUOTE] Here's what Elona wiki says: [quote] When you perform, NPCs will tip a percentage of their gold and will throw random items at you as gifts. A NPC can't give a tip that is higher than the amount of money they have. [b]Citizens who are higher level than you are "stuffier" and demand better performance; what might appease the common riffraff will earn you a swift ticket to hell when playing near a shopkeeper. A high level citizen can usually kill you in one hit with a rock. Until you have a high performance skill in ranges of 30+, always check the strength of the people around you. Someone who is twice as strong as you will very likely throw a rock at you.[/b] To train your performance you just need to perform. Your skill raises for each person who hears it and if they enjoyed it, though its possible to just play for yourself to train it. [b]Until your performance is lvl8 it is recommended to only play for yourself and your pets.[/b] Note that pets who are higher level then you will mercilessly throw rocks at you. The value of your instrument may have an effect of your performance, but no test has revealed any differences. The skill required to perform in front of others effectively means that you will be getting all that they can give. [/quote]
My performance level is level 10.xx. How do you find what level other people are? D:
I'm a level 4 warrior, and I have 36715 gold, and 8 platinum. :downs:

[QUOTE=Xera;15966546]He asked how to do it without the numpad. The tutorial does not tell you how to do this. Why are you still raging over this?[/QUOTE] I'm not raging over it. I am raging over the idiocy of people. [editline]02:57PM[/editline] [QUOTE=boomyshoe;15966955]My performance level is level 10.xx. How do you find what level other people are? D:[/QUOTE] Target them. Hit * and target different people, and it will tell you how much stronger they are. I don't know if there is another way.
I'm a level 4 Archer. I got a Bear pet by mistake (FUCKING RAGED). Not only is his sprite ugly as hell, but he sucks. Atleast I can ride him (As in, ride, not fuck), so I get around the map quickly. I have 4764gp, mainly gotten from Quests and killing / selling. Sadly, I haven't yet figured out how to sell shit for more than 1gp. I'm pretty sure the 1gp dagger I got from a drop which is silver and labeled [Good] is worth more than 1gp, atleast 200gp perhaps? I don't want to dish out 283gp each time to get it inspected then sell it on, it's stupid. I found, right now, i'm extremely weak. When I had a warrior at level 4, he could easily beat the shit out of stuff, but as an Archer, I die easy and do little damage. I heard they were good classes to start on though... I've travelled a lot! All the way to the Port on the West side, and all the way to the East to the capital Paliamos or something. Haven't traversed the snow yet, too scared :x Gonna just grind 24/7 in the Puppy Caves and duel in the arena every now and then... If someone could please explain how to sell stuff for more than 1gp, it'd help a LOT. Also, I hate travelling for ages, getting 2 tiles away from a city then getting ambushed by brigands that demand money. The more money you have, the more they demand. Usually, if i'm mounted, i'll tell em to fuck emselves and attempt a runner, which usually works. But those few times it fails sucks...hard. I end up losing more money and items than if i'd just paid em :x [editline]11:15PM[/editline] I'm a level 4 Archer. I got a Bear pet by mistake (FUCKING RAGED).

[QUOTE=boomyshoe;15967073]Explain.[/QUOTE] Well, first, I got lucky on a "Beauty and The Beast" quest, so that got me around 7k, and from then on I just did more and more quests to get up to 14k, then my pet drank from a well and I got a wish, so I wished for money and I got 20k, then I spent some and lost some to get where I'm at now. I also occasionally found a random event of some rich person dropping money around.
Those damn beauty and the beast quests. I get ambushed everytime, normally like 3 tiles away from my destination.
I wish you could deposit money in a bank, cause to be honest, there ain't no point carrying around 20k worth of gold whilst raiding a dungeon. I hate putting myself at risk, cause losing 1k gold for a silly death makes me rage..
What's up with you trying to impersonate me?
Let's not derail here. We gotta answer our questions. Knowledge is power, we know that. So, let's get to work.
Wow it was hard to tell who was who until i saw the date.
Guys, lets not derail this lovely thread. When is someone gonna answer my question?

Thanks. I didn't know I was thought of as a god. [editline]12:52AM[/editline] :( Someone answer our questions, I really need to know this. [highlight](User was permabanned for this post ("Gimmick" - Dragon))[/highlight]

Just answer the damn question, jesus christ. Any way to sell a found object for more than 1gp? OTHER than getting it inspected.

Also there are scrolls and rods of identify you can use to inspect items to get a better price. Armor and weapons usually dont sell for much.
I'd really enjoy this game a lot more if the sprites looked like they were done in the same style.
I die like every minute or two. [editline]09:24PM[/editline] Like, if I was playing right now, and you had the elochat thing open, you would see me dying like filling it up almost. Except I think there are also AI things dying in the chat too...
How do you tell how much defense armor gives and how much damage a weapon does?..
[QUOTE=hunter_killah;15973778]How do you tell how much defense armor gives and how much damage a weapon does?..[/QUOTE] Is it identified or not?
Don't drink from fountains. You might get pregnant by an alien. I brought my pregnant self to Palmia. Alien burst out. Now it goes around constantly impregnating random citizens and guards before it gets killed. I can't go there without dying now. :bang:
[QUOTE=Skwee;15973792]Is it identified or not?[/QUOTE] Not sure. Let me see if I can get it identified.
How do I get payed for missions? I do them and come back but I don't get money at all.

But, when I first got my pet (The little girl) i walked on top of a well to see if she would drink from it, and she didn't so I walked past it, and when SHE walked on top of it, she fell in and died. How do I get my pets back after they die?
