Talk:Permanent pre-Searing character
From Guild Wars Wiki
Farming money off lvl 0-10 mobs? And the stuff about remarkable wealth? I'm not saying any of this is a lie but nobody would spend time collecting "3-5 dmg drops" and stacks of 3 gold. Ninjas In The Sky 07:40, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

- As noted in the article, there are very few things to spend gold on in pre-searing. My perma-pre monk has about four platinum, and this isn't counting the platinum I've sent to post with another character (I estimate that I've sent about ten to twenty platinum to post-searing). I also play my perma-pre character much less often than other characters -- but still, with nothing to spend money on, gold does add up rather quickly. And since many perma-pre characters are perfectly capable of romping around the Northlands, the drops are better quality than "3-5 dmg" and stacks of 3 gold. --Nkuvu

- You said nobody would spend time collecting 3-5 dmg drops and stacks of three gold. You're wrong and I said so. What's there to explain? --71.229.204.25 07:28, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
- People don't get rich off those "3 gold" and "3-5" weapons. They get rich from farming Charr Bags (I won't wikify because all it takes is the back button, or click on main article), Dyes, Salvage Kits, and runes. People get wealthy from selling this stuff, and if they get rich enough they sink their cash into runes they use themselves. But if you are outfitted yourself, they don't need to buy the stuff for themselves. Therefore, more selling ensues, and they get rich.- Vanguard

- Technically, people DO get rich off those "stacks of 3 gold and 3-5 damage drops" - money has to enter the economy from somewhere. Somewhere along the line, someone has to have earned the 7k to buy that black dye you're selling. There's nothing worth much to a merchant in pre - the most would be from items with improved sale values. All I'm saying is that all the money in presearing HAS, from somewhere along the line, come from "stacks of 3 gold and 3-5 damage drops". --Gah

[edit] Dye "farming
What's the best way in Pre-Searing to get dyes?
- Kill stuff =P. Just find a big group near an oupost and kill that group over and over. Hasaple 03:50, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
- I disagree with your method there. Since the first few kills after leaving an outpost generally produce no drops, it's better to be out for a longer period of time and kill a lot of mobs, even all of them on the map. Mostly what I do is go down the Catacombs with a monk and kill all the undead down there with smiting spells. Admittedly the spiders can be annoying.
[edit] Copyvio
Part of this page have the same exact wording of the same page on GuildWiki... 12:53, 1 March 2009 (UTC) --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:70.81.167.56 (talk).
- Good catch. I any case, the original author of the article in GuildWiki appears to release his contribs under GFDL too, and this appears to be a copy from the earlier versions, so not sure if it would be needed to stamp a copyvio tag on it.--Fighterdoken 01:16, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Perma Pre
Going to put a redirect from that to here, if nobody has an objection. --Gah
