Regarding the Cheats & Hints.
okay. this isn't maybe the FASTEST way to get gold at the start, but it WILL get you a ton of gold.
What you want to start off doing is going to either Bowerstone Old Town or Bowerstone Market.
buy the Weapons stall in Bowerstone Old Town / Blacksmith in Bowerstone Market. now, i realise that will cost a bit, but it will be worth it, owner gets mad discount.
buy the
most expensive weapons you can. this is recommended because you will get more gold for them.
travel to Fairfax Gardens
find a
weapons trader. no one other will do.
sell the weapons you purchased to them.
Fairfax Gardens traders have a 30-35% price increase on every other trader.
you can do this as many times as you want. i turned 20,000 gold into 300,000 in a matter of about 30 minutes.
Note:if you make the Weapons shop owner & Blacksmith fall in love with you (and fear you at the same time) you will get even more of a discount from them.
