baron01, that is quite an interesting build. I never considered the Chakram - Shuriken Cloud as an option. It will definitely be a viable option for Nightmare, maybe even Hell if I can up my DPS a bit.
I will do some Crypt of the Ancients runs on both Nightmare and Hell to see what the difference is in G/h. My current build is not capable of doing this on Inferno yet.
You should consider selling "okey" gear for like 5000 gold. Instead of just aiming to sell the ones that goes for millions. Selling an okey lvl 55 item might be a bargain for someone leveling, and it's more than the ~700-800 gold you get for vendoring it. With lucky auctions, it could be a quick way to add up some extra cash :> For example ilvl60+ items with reduced level requirement is great for selling. Sold a 700dps monk weapon for 80k just yday. Crap item really, but since it was usable at 55 is was suddenly very attractive for fast lvling !
At the moment with my Gold Farming, in order to boost efficiency, I don't pick up anything except Gems.
I do have 6 or 7 mules full of gear though. I will have a look at that and see if there are some cheap quick sales there to boost the funds a bit.
Estimating gear value, now that is another big ? for me
Thanks for this very informative post. Extremely depressing but very informative. Given that I'm now Level 5 and 2 and my main chars ... this is going to take me forever!
I would say keep doing what you're doing. Imo farming is mostly about what's the least tedious for you, and if this works keep at it. Then as your gear improves, move up to more difficult stuff and do the same thing for faster profit Happy hunting!
I imagine as I go up in Paragon levels I can start dropping GF gear and replacing it with better gear to move up to more profitable areas. This will take a lot of time of course, especially considering I'm currently on Hell. (just hit Paragon 2)
Not to be mean but your doing it wrong, this game isn't about farming drops it's about farming the AH till you find cheap awesome gear thought everyone knew that?? (sorry had to remove this because of URL restrictions)
No seriously though this game's RNG is abysmal at best it's will be awesome for some and utter crap for others RNG is a cruel mistress. Play the game enjoy it scan AH for cheap upgrades it's what I did and I got to act 3 on my DH relatively easilly, No imba gear hear just cheap stuff off AH and things I find, Once bought a 934dps Xbow with 280 dex 280 str and 50% crit for 150k and that weap I only replaced just recently so it's possible with not so awesome gear, YOU CAN DO IT.
I'm always on the lookout for a bargain buy at the AH. Either to use or to sell. Selling things on the AH is an even slower and tedious way of making Gold for me though. I'm unable to sell the majority of the things that I pick up (ilvl61+) and the bargains that I resell generally don't make me that much profit and the turnaround time is quite long.
10 mill gold =$2.5 save yourself the frustration of farming for sooooo long.
While that might be true, it would prefer to play the game instead of pay the game (smiley face is a URL?)
I'm just looking to play it as efficiently as possible.
Btw, I'm on the EU server. That price seems exceptionally low from what I know about Gold prices (which is very little I will admit)
RMAH pricing was at ~1.5€ last I checked (15€ for 10mG)
On the BattleNet forum I see MMOVOO ads for 0.86€ (8.6€ for 10mG)
After trying to make my way through Inferno with both a DH and a Barb, with not much success I might add, I've come to the conclusion that I just don't have enough Gold to play this game properly.
I haven't really had much luck with drops or AH thus I've been stuck with gear that kept my DH in Act2 and Barb in Act3 (both getting beaten badly from the very beginning).
As a result I've decided to try a different strategy to be able to progress. Farm some Gold!
I decided to use the DH for this and focused on the following 2 stats:
Gold Find & Pickup Radius
After making and spending some Gold I've gotten up to a point where I've maxed out my Gold Find (300%) and Pickup Radius (56). My movement speed is at 12% btw.
I'm using this build to farm Crypt of the Ancients (Hell) at the moment and it is going reasonably well. I'm making in the region of 400k Gold per hour (although I still have to confirm this).
Is this an efficient way to go about it? Should I rather be farming a different area or different difficulty?
What recommendations do you have for me to make some Gold so that I can buy some gear to take on Inferno?
For what its worth I'm at 4.5k Armor and 11.3k DPS at the moment. 21.6k Life with virtually no Resist.
