How to make gold/money without using trading post?

[WiseCog]

So lets say I don't want to use trading post. How do I make money? I can see board quests and some random few mini quests. But besides that, how do I make money without selling to real players?
I am sitting at level 20 with around 800gold. A house costs 5000 gold. I do not understand how I can get gold quickly besides trading post.

Anyone have any tips?

I’d say attempt to sell:

1- Raw materials. People out there would rather buy than grind.
2- Items that have relevance. For example, I’ve found heavy pieces with “Soldier” or “Barbarian” are obviously more practical to sell, rather than a heavy piece with Focus and Intelligence.
3- Ammo sells. You can craft a hefty load of arrows or cartridges, and people will definitely buy them. Especially the cartridges, because sometimes saltpeter can be tough to come by.

Hope this helps, even if just a bit. Otherwise, it’s up in the air. Thing is, you can do all 3 things here, and either make some bank, or nothing at all.

I thank you for the advice as it was good advice. I still have to ask again, if I don't want to use trading post is the only money gained from board quests and other quests?

You get some from killing mobs. But your question is silly. It's like asking "how do I drive a manual transmission if I don't want to use the gearshift?" You want to do something while not using the method intended for doing that thing.
