Armor shop by far best money maker? Anything better?

[Honorable_D]

Was struggling with money for awhile only using the wooden house and craft stall...but finally got around to making armor/weapon shops and the armor/weapons to sell in them.

Wow, the armor shop alone is making 12,000 or so gold each quarter provided I keep it stocked.

The two wooden houses that sell beds don't even remotely come close. Is there anything that can beat the weapon/armor shops in terms of money making?

[Induced Apathy]

armor shop is hard to beat since all characters have six slots. you can with insane production chains run two armor shops and at least two steam towers. trade fair is the other bulk money method. you can sell trees/decor bloodlines and make some bank.

Just to be clear, since I am new to the game, you want to set up "pre-orders" at the trade stall, right? You are fully intended to buy things with coin constantly in order to keep producing consumption goods, yes?

Things like broken armor, white wood, shells etc... all need to be constantly bought so you can build crafts and beds and armors, yeah?

You guys end up setting things to AUTO produce as well, ya? So you auto buy from trade stall, auto produce at things like workshop and then auto sell at things like noodle stall/armor shop/hotel. Do I have this right?

Correct? then you get alchemy building and with your chaos energy and some coin to make things you cant get at the trade currently and then chests from the merchant once you are making money good, I also buy food, alcohol and trinket stuffs to resell , the Ship Merchant is like a wholesaler.

And Then you get the auction house and can list 5 items per round, start with bloodlines that you can get from the trade shop from hero's some times, from the Ship Merchant singly Or you can gamble with the bloodline chests if you feel lucky . This can pay off BIG if you do get lucky but might also bite you in the bum if you get crappy picks. the decorations also auction off at a high value most of the time also Like stated above.


Spoiler money
go to the fairy forest find the time merchant buy all you can sell at auction

This is out of date, think weapon shop's fixed now, and some numbers might be slightly off but it's still mostly rings true.

Also to note, npcs buy the most expensive item in stock. When this is the store's base item's it's great. This is the most ideal scenario since it's generally pretty damn expensive and it's produced for free. Otherwise keep in mind when trying to fill up all the store slots how easily you can keep up production of the most expensive item listed.

i rather micromanage the merchant and sell what makes fast cash...

Don't know if it still works, and nobody mentioned it yet. There's a lategame method of making money passively. When you ascend one of your chars to godhood (5 max is the cap) you start getting ascension chests. "Green" branch ascension give you "exp pill" food items of various quality. You can sell them in a food stall for huge profits (drop bookself into that stall too, for extra item slots). Upside being you don't even to be producing anything. Just set it so it autosells whatever exp pills you acquire.
