Learn How To Vend

[Avogadro]

Chapter One: So you want to make cash money but have no idea where to start.

Start by logging into your new, separate account, because we assume you're either autotrading or not trying hard enough. First, grind up a good merchant. STR, DEX, and AGI are what you want to start with.

Now that you're at the training grounds remember to grab all the bonus exp and levels you can. Put your skill points into DEX first, until you get to about 15-20. Then everything goes into STR and AGI, VIT if you really think you need it. Once you've got all the job levels you need, go do the test for merchant, obviously. No sense wasting time in the training grounds now on base levels that you can better get elsewhere. Sell off anything you don't need, keeping bwings, fwings, pots, and armour. Anything that isn't worth money can just get thrown out. This should more than cover your merchant test fees and a bit of seed money if it's your first shop.

Protip: When you get your merchant job quest code, write it down on a piece of paper. If you're at all serious, you'll be doing this a few times anyway and it's easier to skim the text and just plug in the numbers when you have to from your "I want to make another merchant" sheet.

Once you have a shiny new merchant, make tracks for Morroc*. Save your spawn point here. Now pick up a concentration potion or two and head two south, killing pickies on the way until you're level 11. Equip the axe you got during the merchant test, hotkey your noob pots, and chug a conentration potion: now you're ready to kill mukas. That DEX you picked up in the novice grounds should help you hit more frequently, the STR is going to kill them faster, and the AGI should help you die less. You are GOING to die a few times since at Lv11, since you're pretty much muka-bait. Spam noob pots to keep alive, and use your fwings to get back when you die. Do this until you start getting less than about 10%/kill, then make an executive decision to grind out the rest or head to metalings. But in all seriousness, OC and DC aren't worth it on a vend alt so you should be done by now. Go reset your stats to full STR, tart up your character with Styla, and rent your cart - it's time to vend.

*Unless you have a stapo card, obviously.
