What quests are real money makers?

Player Questions Started Last reply 15 posts
I remember the quest for that Ore for Bingo (weapon blades) was a real money maker. But the price of ore has fallen.

Are there any similar quests that are really worth having when hunting? In other words its worth looking for required mobs. Forget about quests where you have to run all over as well as TOI and similar that need an organized party.
Try hunting moonstone shards.Get the other quests from aden as well so you can get ore and the red gems as well.But I think going for shards is good money
Which quest gives the moonstone shards?
Cant remember the name,but you get it in aden warehouse.Then hunt in blazing swamps.
I got about 25 of those moonshards in 40 min, or was it60?! well, they go for 25k each on bartz. so 600k+ /h isent that bad, and the XP isent that bad there either, considering its soloable :) (lvl70+?)

the best quest I have done was the quest done in seal of shillien, killing those snakes or whatever they are, and getting majestic jewelry recipe. I made a lot of money doing that. (lvl63+)
Moonstone shards should be in the Ivory Tower basement I think.
Yes, it is the "supplier of reagents" quest, and you should hunt Hames Orc Shaman for their reagent pouches, it is the best source of moonstone shards. And remember to keep 100 + 500 moonstone shards for yourself, for the subclass+noblesse quests.
I tried hunting recently in BS, and it seems like I kept getting environment penalties that last a looooong time. In fact, they didn't really go away on either of my Orcs until after well over an hour of playtime, then finally just re-booting my computer. And on the destroyer, I got one of those penalties befire I ever stepped into the lava.
I think the best moneymaker so far is Enhance your weapon. You just have to level the crystal to 11/12/13 ... detail heh.
Game of Cards and win that much rumored 4.3b Adena :P
But it's rumored, not confirmed and definitely harder to get than crystals :)

You mean the danger area one? It's not a penalty in itself, it just means that when you in a danger area you risk getting hit by the flame DoT. But the danger area "buff" is bugged - sometimes you'll have it for hours, even if you've soe'd to town, but it has no effect.
I don't view many of the quests at 60+ as bonafide money makers. Most are just something to do while you're grinding anyway, and help offset cost of hunting (i.e., spamming shots). It's not helping matters that the market has gone really soft. Takes longer to sell recipes and equipment mats than it used to.

Right now I'm doing the card game (see Aden blacksmith) just because the beads drop fairly often. It's purely a game of luck, and I've only managed 3 wins in a row on two separate occasions. Both times I got an EWD as a reward. Not too bad for a series of mouse clicks.

I understand that there is another good quest in FOTD, but I'm not high enough yet on the HE to undertake it. I'll let you know in about 28% more xp.

Yeah Blazing Swamp is really good xp......are you dreaming? BS is like the worst place ever after Forbidden Gateway. Only thing you need to go to BS is to get the moonstone shards yourself for your subclass quest.

Champa, thanks for explaining that.
