    After killing a few hundred skeletons and selling their drops, I had enough gold to purchase arrows and put a hefty down payment on that crate sold by the housing decorations merchant.

    Obviously, this was not intended as at this rate I will have enough to furnish my entire closet by the end of the year.

    I would like to suggest further reducing monster loot to 1 sellable piece of equipment per 50 kills, and perhaps have the rest drop food stamps.

    As a steadfast observer of the virtues, I will resist the urge to profit from this regrettable oversight and continue vendoring my copper ore for the time being.

    I cannot promise, however, others will be as principled.

    In all honesty gold is way to easy to obtain

    After 4 days i easily made 13k/hour, Now i don't really use gold for anything and don't like farming something I want to be changed :/

    This made my morning...thank you.
    Lord Halvard, if you don't use gold for anything, us impoverished crafters dropping 20k/day on fuels will happily accept charity.

    Read the post again. It was a satire.

    Anyway, if anyone ever find the loot from mobs being too high, I'll more than happy to share a portion of the burden from having to carry too much gold :)

    Lower the Loot any Lower and instead of looking for bodies to cannibalize, we will be selling those bad boyz to the nearest butcher.;);):eek:

    Just farm long bows it is boring as hell but yields way too much compared to the rest of what novia has to offer (in my experience so far) ruined keep is great


    I don't do this cause I'm not horny for gold, so no sharing sorry ;p

    Darn you snitches!!

    As of the patch from last night, the skeleton archers in ruined keep now dropped shoddy bows.

    Thanks man... :(

    Curing salt is still 8 gp in non-busy towns, I think.

    6g is the bottom for coal and salt. Supple straps used to be badass for vendoring. Is that still a high sale item?

    From what I've seen, looks like only beetle carapace is the most seeking items since suede has been easier to obtain once people can kill high level animal mobs.

    Used to be able to NPC vendor them for like 900gp. That was nerfed. I believe they're better sold on a Public Vendor to players. I'd just sell the base mats though. Folks will buy Leather and Suet and Cotton and Beetles before they buy made straps.

    All the loot in game is shoddy now, lol. I didn't know about the bows myself in the keep. Is there to be no good loot ever in the game one can make money from? Each time something is decent poof gone. Soon we'll all be able to choose the new Begger's class! Maybe the npc's will have mercy on us and pay better than the creatures we kill to keep them safe, lol.

    So the dropped loot is a Shoddy Bow rather than Long Bow, but did they go back and change the Skeleton/Mob attack and damage stats to reflect it was a shoddy bow or did they leave it so you're still getting hit like it was a higher grade weapon?

    And yet again, every time we take a step forward, there is some means to push us two steps back. This is supposed to be an adventure game, not a Sim. The items, stats and values have been the same for months, but all of sudden we need another immediate patch.

    Even the elven archers at control point 'Superstition Pass' drop bows that vendor for next to nada.
