man there's so many fun ways to make gold now, used to be much more limited but horizontal progression is paying off
100% agree! I'm glad there's more options than "just do Silverwastes" nowadays
@@Laranity i've never really understood how ppl were making gold from silverwastes.
I know what u have to do exactly, but it just.. doesn't give any gold..
The new metas, Rifts, strikes, fractals and raids are ridiculusly good.
Older metas are decent as well.
But silverwastes was just... useless
@@akhsdenlew1861 Riba farm give you bags which contain mats you can craft or sell, you gain many Spirit Shards which have RAW gold value, you get alot of karma and Obsidian shards too.. overall its more then you expect in those currencies.
For efficient RIBA (silverwastes) Farm you need an alt character on a lower Level (55 ist optimal) because you get a lot of bags, which drop lower tier mats, if have such a character.
@@akhsdenlew1861 silverwastes is very easy. if you don't want move very often then silverwaste is your farming area. silverwaste is much relaxing than fishing.
Pro tip for Dragonfall: if you're going to spend a lot of time there, make sure you buy one stack of Karmic Retribution from the vendor at the start of the zone. This will force every mob you kill to drop a small amount of karma, which is important because it means every mob killed will also drop Volatile Magic! Without the Karmic Retribution buff active, not every mob killed will get you VM.
Super great video, thank you for making GW2 content ❤
Was going to mention this; it makes farming DF a lot more tolerable since if it's not gold that's keeping me (and many others) from getting legendaries done, it's karma
if we hit the daily chest cap, is it still worth continuing farm in DF?
Genius. I'd forgotten that. I still don't have it but have been thinking lately of going back because it's just good times. Big thanks.
Actually all living 4 maps allows you to buy Karmic Retribution stacks. Bought all of them long time ago so my alts could also benefit from that when they get to those maps. Every single freaking mob drops a bit o karma to the point you really get nice amount of it.
I’ve been on a Dragonfall kick lately and DIDN’T know about this! Definitely implimenting🙏
Ive been doing RIBA for 7 years. Mostly back during HoT, I would grind for hours and hours a day, now at least once a week... and after all this time I never knew that RIBA stood for red, indigo, blue and amber
Well if you have leftover shovels I know z guild who would love to buy these from you lol
What? Did you have your head stuck in the sand -- man?
@@jfpOne23 Yes, I spent much time putting my head in the sand looking for chests
Extremely good video Laranity. Your editing, explanations, and video quality are simply...Golden.
loool
Thank you so much!!
BTW for anyone who has trouble fishing, buy (or cook) some Zephyrite Jerky and Whitefish Sushi, and eat 1 of each when you're on your skiff about to start.
Zephyrite Jerky gives 25 fishing stacks (with fishing party mastery) if eaten on a skiff. This gives an extra initial +75 fishing power. (I would say just eat 1, but you can eat up to 4 to max out the stacks). If you don't want to buy/use Jerky, you can also hop on someone's skiff then summon yours while on theirs to copy/paste their fishing stacks onto your skiff.
Sushi gives +150 (or +250 with fishing on full tank mastery) fishing power. Any type, including ascended sushi, is tied for best fishing food.
So this is what you were cooking yesterday 😮 epic guide!! 👏🏻
i love your videos,i just started gw2 and its so much info for anything but your channels helped so much :"D
Love love love this video, Lara! Thanks for making this!
If I could like this video twice, I would. Thank you so much for compiling these methods and spending all that time to help the community!
Thank you Lara! Amazing video!
Tysm Lara for this, awesome video as always :D
The thing about playing content that you love with friends, then at the end realizing that you made a bunch of gold? Literally the most important thing to enjoy the game.
PD: "I would much rather blast through a couple of fractals than grind Drizzlewood"
*shows Siren's reef footage*
dunno, dunno :P
Siren's Reef isn't bad unless you get Outflanked or Last Laugh as instabilities.
Once again, such a great video Lara! 😲
I farm rifts endlessly everyday it seems, just like most of us at the moment. A small tip, is when i farm t1s-t2s i basically save half of the mats and then make t3 motivations with the other half and then sell. You still make alot of gold for your time while slowly saving essence for armor. (this obviously means for players whom want the armor.) This method makes gold BUT also covers the cost of t1 essence with ecto cost. Hope it helps
Awesome presentation - literally perfect guide. 10/10 no notes 👌
Aaa thanks Bloom, that means a lot! Your videos definitely motivated me to improve the editing on mine 😇
Thanks for the video, entertaining and informative! I think another useful topic would be how you turn these events into gold. Likely, veterans of the game know the secrets, but players just entering this content may not know that, for the most part, the events don't just drop gold currency, but rather items that may be worth selling, or items that salvage into materials that are then sold on the TP. I realize the fluctuations on the TP can change the value of the events over time, but generally the idea of gold-making from the events remains consistent.
For example, Dragonstorm can make gold, but what items make that so. Anyway, just a thought if you're thinking of future video ideas. (loved the Wizard's Vault item video, btw)
EXCELLENT point! I was actually scrolling the comments to see if anybody would explain this. I’ve been playing for a while, purely for story/character things, but I want to interact with other parts of the game more confidently. I just use what bit of infor I’ve gotten from other videos.
So can you tell us what to sell? Also, is the home instance worthwhile? Was it supposed to be mentioned here?
Laranity went HARD with this one. I always feel inspired to play more GW2 after watching her videos.
This is gonna help me a lot, thank you!
Thanks for this. Well back to your stream 😊
Thank you for this! Great work :)
Thank you so much for this video! It is a HUGE help!
great help thank you Lara!!
The emotes in these video seem so smooth, they added how many since EoD? Some I had never seen or haven't seen in a long time, awesome video Lara ^^
Thank you for these tutorials! I’ve just started playing the game 4 days ago and these have been a major help. Especially since I boosted my character to level 80 after reaching only level 30 😂
I love that one method is fishing cos I just got into it and i'm loving it! So relaxing
Ok FINE, I subscribed. Your gw2 content is really good.
Actually well done on the video!
Though if i may point something out: while talking about Dragonstorm, perhaps you would want to hide the boss profile shown on the top of the screen to completely avoid the spoilers ^^
Very nice video! I didn't know about your other "You might be rich" video lol (You should have put a link to that in the text!)
If you are going to do the strikes don't forget to exchange the ice shards in IBS for mistborn notes, consume them and buy the trophy chests.
one trophy chest costs 1g+VM, is there really a profit or at least a break even of the trophies?
@leoangelo247 34G on trophies gave me 55G while I kept the dust so yeah.
seems like a good trade, thank you@@Maarten55551
Well, If you ever wanna do Vision, I'd suggest actually getting the kralkatite ore, seeing as you will need 3000 of them to complete a side achievement (That is required to get vision...)
Also yes, there is big profits in buying trophy chests (hell you can also just keep the t6 trophies and basically paid ~half the price for them if you are into legendary crafting!)
Because discounted material is a form of money making!
I'm actually planning to get vision after prismatic regalia. thanks for this input.
@@stevendeslauriers1369
u always make these at the perfect time thank u
Very useful, thanks!
Amazing video, tyvm!~
new to gw2 but not mmos and your vids are so nice ty sm :)
hey cool video :) Auric Basin bauble farm is clearly up there too, sadly less popular, prolly due to the fact it's only doable a week on 3 cause of the bauble rotation and [fast] website rating it a bit low ( the datas they have on it arent from optimized runs). Anyway the video still cover good farms, have fun o/
Keep em coming sis 🎉
Watched this video while eating my breakfast:3 What a nice way to start into my day. Now I know how to make gold
Thanks for your video ❤
ty for the tips, this game is so good ! 💌
Loved the video, great work as usual Lara!!! I didnt know some of these are so damn profitable. I also really need to get into raids and CM strikes lmfao
nice info thanks!
Nice! Thank you!
nice vid! ill use this to bait my friends to play gw2 again
I make a lot just by doing Auric Basic, there's so much unidentified gear you get from just doing things and you can make 10 g in an hour while you are farming recipes and stuff. Solo and not dependent on keys and stuff.
Huh. I remember farming the same 4 events at level 80 for 2g/hour right at launch. Good times.
I just had to farm Dragonfall every day to get into your video hahaha (Darknessjack it's me )
Girl, you're killing it lately.
Thanks for the information. Just started gw2 2 months ago and already put 150 hours into it. I’m in love with it!! Thanks for making me ready for when I unlock the areas to farm
Hi I want play this game too how much the size of this game? :)
@@KaNePrime-cp7kz I think it’s something like 60g now. Almost 300hrs right now in the game and I’m taking a break from it 🤣🤣
Noob question. For the loots, do you just sell them straight or salvage then sell the materials?
Ive only been doing raids for all my gold. I feel the same way, having fun and then suddenly I can craft some legendaries.
I used to run the t4 fractals + challenge mode 98, 99 and 100 with a small group and, it took us nearly a month to grind out all the gear and learning the skips and the challenge mode, but it was the sweatiest and most rewarding feeling I had in a long time playing a game
I was told that Octovine was super profitable, but I couldn't motivate myself to farm it every day. I'm glad to not see it on your list. :D Recently, after a big loss of raw gold (finished a legendary), I tried to always do the tier 4 fractals and the daily strike missions, and indeed, my gold stock visibly growing, it's very motivating.
I'll try some of the other content you recommended from times to times, but I prefer quick and various content, otherwise I'll become bored easily.
Oh, and the fishing, yeah! I had a period of time when I did like one hour of fishing while listening to some podcasts, and indeed, it's perfect to make easy gold while having you brain occupied on something else. :)
Have you tried the leviathan farm in Cantha btw? I heard it's quick and gives a good amount of ambergris, but never tried it myself.
no,leviathan only drop 1 ambergris per kill,and only spawn during certain event ,basically it just a nice addition if you are in the area
@@joyboy6067 Ok, ok, thx! :)
@@bobiboulonif you are fishing Kaineng docks you can join a Levi farm session to basically add +10 ambergris to your loot for that day (10 is the daily cap)
@@insertwordthere Good to know.
By Ogden's hammer!
What Savings!
Hello, Great vid! noobish question here, how do you calculate the gold actually? Like Fractals, do I have to sell all the mats etc... to get the said profit?
What ever happened to Auric Basin event farming (during weeks where the Shiny Baubles are in the map bonus reward section)? I always liked doing that, because can be done very brain-afk (at least as soon as you memorized the routes) and yields lots of loot and keys for the Tarir chests...
There's a group that farms shiny baubles in Auric Basin a ton on NA but they're on a weird schedule, think they're mostly from Southeast Asia so it's usually morning for most NA players when they're on I think. It's a whole guild with a discord dedicated to the baubles, [BOBL].
I love this farm as well, looking to learn to command it to run a few hours a few times a week when baubles are there. Great profit, highly accessible farm, beautiful map.
I think Bauble farming is still quite popular! It’s just that, for this video I didn’t really wanna include farms that aren’t always available
Goeie video’s, duidelijk en informatief! Je praat makkelijk weg in het Engels. Ik vind je Nederlandse accent wel best heftig, als ik dat mag zeggen
Awesome video! Newer player so for me 20 gold per hour is great lol
Thank you :)
Im not greedy, I don't wanna get rich quick. I just wanna buy lw seasons 😂
Editing is *chef's kiss*
Also I didn't know about imperial favors 😭 SotO is smaller in scale so progression and reward systems are more understandable and in reach imo
Hello! Is there any way to "break" the gifts of magic or power that they give us in the wizard's tower to recover the T6? I'm not interested in making legendary content but gold is good for me, I thought I saw somewhere that you could unite the gift of power and magic with the ectos etc and make the gift of luck, and you could "break" that one. and recover the t6 and those that could be sold, am I drunk or is there a way to do that? Thanks in advance for reading and future responses :)
With CMs added into the equation (at least 99 through 97, 100 might be a stretch atm), and some tweaking to my loot, I hit nearly 1k gold/month on fractals.
tnx for the info
This video is worth it's weight in 🥇
Do the big end map metas. Get into a routine where you hop from one to the next with no down time. Try to weave in a few that have high value items. BuT wHiCh OnES?! All depends on your schedule.
Good info, sadly as a semi-new player i have found both Strike missions and Fractals (low level at the moment) to be full of the most toxic people i have encountered in the game. Shame, as some of the Strike missions seem fun but seem to be gate kept by the min-max crowd.
Pro tip for Fractals: every day buy the 30 discounted keys, do daily + rec, if u can cm too, and open the encryption when u have 250 or 1000, so u upgrade u're chances of getting the expensives drops
How? Please elaborate.
you actually dont even have to play fractals to make gold off them, just buy the deeply discounted keys and buy the chests for them and you still make more gold then chests and keys costs. but that does cut into them, then there is the weekly buying items in arborstone that gets you 14-20 gold each week
So, when you're doing all these methods where you gather chests through various means. Is the assumption that you will get materials and sell them on the trading post? Do you just get gold in the chests? This is where I've always been a bit fuzzy.
Yes, you sell all the materials you get. Best is to Auction them @ the lowest price, VS Insta-selling them.
Thank you
Thanks to this video I will no longer be broke as hell in real life AND Guild Wars 2, finally...thank you...
Nice video.
How did you got the drink coffee emote? Wasn’t it tied just for us delivery?
Well I have just one particular problem in guild wars 2. I have a really hard time finding a commander or group that is doing this trains/runs etc. Maybe its just me, the time on which I play I dunno. I joined discord Hardstuck to track what's going on, I keep checking ingame group search etc. I sometimes have the feeling that without the latest expansion I am almost alone roaming :) Any tips/ideas for me?
They really turned gw2 into rift? Like they took the best aspect from the previously best f2p game and added it... amazing
I didn't expect the fishing to be at no. 2 as a full time fisherman I can confirm this.
Is it worth doing the T1-3 recommended fractals as well as the T4 dailies? I always assumed doing T4 + recs was the best thing for me to do, although that can end up taking an hour.
Recs aren’t amazing for gold/hour tbh, but they are easy and you can get fast potions + fractal currencies
@@Laranity thank you!
I was surprised to see Alt-parking wasn't included. I make a lot of almost passive income just logging in and cycling between alternate characters placed near chests and nodes.
Maybe at some point I’ll make a “passive easy gold video”! You’re right, this video was very much about active farming
ITS HERE
just reached lvl 80 my gear sucks i want make some gold and do fracs whats minium gear i need for tier 1 fracs? best way to progress?
As a person who's stuck on a class that she likes roleplay-wise and hates in rotations i'm a forever alone fisher :(
p.s. ngl all the GLEAMING EYE SCORCHER skills kill my motivation to try group content anyways. You are better off without a bad player, i enjoy my own style, everyone wins. Happy you enjoy those raid things somehow! Too bad though some of them are kinda mandatory for several leggies and people sell places in the raids, both of these feel terrible.
Haven't played for more than a year, but this video made me want go back... I guess here we are again, bye social life! X)
so far for me it is fishing thats the best gold farm, i get about 40-60gold per hour based on luck but the best luck i had was 245g in half an hour, ever 2 fish out of the 3 and some time all 3 was legendary, and some asceded was dropiung the abmber too, the price for amber was 2.80g somthing at the timeas well so this helped :)
What is that epic, orchestral background music? you usually have GW2 music in background, but i don't recognize this one.
Does anyone do Lake Doric leather farm anymore? That was one of the best farms at one point.
thats truth, all true, my favorite is Fractals
Not sure how you got most of these numbers. For example, I fished for over 100 hours by now doing the most efficient thing possible, including finishing the repeatable achievement over and over. I get 25 gold per hour if I get lucky, but on average its closer to 15~20 gold per hour. When I do Dragonstorm and sell everything I got including currency conversions, I barely reach 5 gold per Dragonstorm daily.
i dont know what a "dragons end meta" is. can u explain? is it a world event i just go searching for?
Half way with Fractals. Let's goooo!
Now I know how to sustain my crippling addiction for new characters and I'm happy to announce I'll soon have 45 slots with every class for every race and I *WILL* be grinding to grant drip for EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM.
i like fractal and strike a lot
Best gold farm in the game: T4 aetherblade fractal with fractal account buffs (takes a bit more than 1 year to max out but it get decent after 6ish monthes). It is intensive but non gated.
2nd best is doing T4 + CM runs, even without the fractal account buffs. The challenge mote fractals give overall more raw gold than T4 and greatly speed up fractal meta progression toward unlocking titles. Fractal account buffs and infinite pots are the best thing you can grind for overtime, it is a masssive overtime generation of karma, mystic forge juice and raw gold. Find some friends and make it is 30-40mn afterwork daily ritual, you get good at the game and it gets funny trying to beat yourself there. Also, I play mmo since the inception of the genre(I'm 39), and CM 100 is one if not the best pve fight I've ever experienced in a game.
Tot bags and wintersday boxes hVe decent chances to farm charted quartz crystals... they have no cap per charged quartz crystals used from the vendors. Halloweennis coming so get farming
Mistborn motes can also be turned into amulets for a chance at the salvaged excellence (~400g) for fractal reliquary.
does anyone know if Dragon Stand has any profit at all? i find it a really fun and amazing meta but no idae the value of it
i knew fractal and fishing gonna be top 3 because deep down we know number 1 of gold making should be slide your card lmao, joke aside daily fractal + jade runestone + VM and hours of fishing at weekend are the biggest contributor of gold for all of my legendaries
#3 is also known as the Laranity scampi Pyramid Scheme
What I'm kind of missing is what I'm supposed to be doing to actually get the gold. Just doing the events and such gives me chests and items, but how do I turn that into 20-30 gold? I make like 1 gold from a single run in Dragonfall, but you say it should be 30 gold. So I'm doing something different then.
So how do I actually make this gold?
I sorta mention this at the start of the video, but this is how much gold you get if you were to sell everything you get! For Dragonfall, a huge part of your income is also the mentioned trophy shipments, don’t forget about those
Should you actually sell everything, though? It kinda depends: if you get materials that you know you will need later, you are better off stockpiling them, instead of selling them and then buying them back for more later.
However, even if you decide to keep certain items, that is still “value” you get, so they are included in the profit numbers
@@Laranity Yea, I probably stash the components in my bank that would net all the Gold then. I have a really old account but hat a long hiatus of over 8 years and now get back into it, playing through all the stories and unlocking the mounts (which can be expensive). So I don't have a boatload of materials unfortunately and all the areas I visit will give new stuff that I never had before.
Also don't have a whole lot of time to play so I have to pick and choose and avoid getting burned out otherwise it's just a waste of time.
By the way, are you Dutch by any chance?
What is a comfortable amount of gold to sit around?
me encanto tu video like y suscrito
What’s the best „noob class“ for t4 fractals? Like, where I’m most likely some kind of help and not a burden😮
The "noob class" is t1. You have to start there anyway, because you won't be able to open the higher tiers before you finish the lower ones, and because you need agony resistance to play the higher tiers. You learn the fractals by progressing through the tiers and they get progressively harder as you go from t1 to t4. So, when you're finally a t4 player, you'll know your stuff. So, just hop in a t1 group, it's fine! T1 fractals are easy, and you can always ask other players if you get confused.
@@MrsHjort thanks, so any Class is viable?
Pretty much, yeah, all professions have their pros and cons. When you play higher tier fractals, you'll start to notice that the groups ask for different roles - like dps, heal, qdps etc. Sometimes specific professions are listed, like hfb - a heal focused firebrand, but pretty often it's just fine whatever profession you play, as long as you fulfill the role that is asked for. In order to do that, you need both the right build, and the right gear. I started as a dps player myself. I’d say that it’s the role that is easiest to start with, if you’re inexperienced with playing in groups. All you need to do, is hit everything as hard as you can, stick together with your group (literally, stay close together with the other players so that the support characters can heal and buff you), be friendly and have fun. If you play a dps role, focus on builds and gear that makes you hit harder, check out snowcrows.com/builds if you need help with figuring out what to choose in that regard :)@@gangrel1234
Pretty much every class is viable :) If you’re new, I recommend picking up a low intensity DPS build, you can find loads of those on hardstuck.gg . Discretize.eu has got pretty much the best “meta” fractal builds
@@Laranity thanks! I’m new in terms of instanced pve, only played open world or PvP😅 I’ll give it a try
