Best way of making gold?
I'm trying to get to 100k gold, more if possible. However, given my current progression, it will be a VERY long time till I get there. Is there any way to get this gold quickly? I only want to use one character at max, btw.

Oddly enough, dolmen farming in alik'r is actually good (mindless but good). I leveled a char from 1 to 50 recently only doing dolmens (because it's the second fastest way, first is skyreach), and selling every loot got me to more than 150K when I hit lv50.

you farm legendary resins. very easy to do. go to craglorn run around gathering everything since it also has a chance to get you nirncrux. then sell those in the market

Imperial characters make way more gold when killing Imperial enemies in Imperial dungeons.

Sell motifs in Summerset. One random motif from here ~35k gold, weapons and chest armor ~200-300k per motif. You can obtain motifs almost everywhere: world bosses, geysers, daily quests, even in random drop. I easily grind over 500k gold in first week.

Except if you're making a crafter.

In which case you do the same thing, but later buy back the motifs in a month or so when their prices have eventually landed at 3 or 4k. They are already worth a tenth of what they were a few weeks ago.

Join a trade guild. Try to join one in a non-dlc area so you can sell DLC motifs for more there to the many vanilla ESO players. Better yet, join two if you play a lot, one guild only gets you 30 sales slots. If you play a lot you will need more.

I belong to one with demanding requirements(400k sales or 25k raffletickets), but we're located right in front of the crafting stations in Mournhold, so it is totally worth it since everything sells very fast. The better location guild charge more, but even if you don't join a big trade guild, if you use TTC addon to advertise your goods and keep your prices fair, people will search out your guild's merchant. Plus, if you get into a decent guild people will help you with pricing and I get a lot of help with crafting research items super cheap.

Selling unrefined materials is very profitable, 200 rubedite ore goes for around 8-10k, but 200 rubedite bars isn't worth posting in my 30 precious spots. Unrefined Silk, leather, and wood is even more profitable. 200 Blessed Thistle can pull in 32-36k if you want to sell fast-at 40k it will sell sometime in 30 days...Selling Jewel crafting stuff is still crazy, but not as profitable as last week. I sold 100 copper ounces for 25k two days ago...just the stuff left over from when i was leveling JC. Of course I've leveled most of my crafting long ago, so I can sell most of what I harvest since i wont use it.

Its not massive but I tried farming a Public Dungeon (with humanoids) last night, made around 10-15k gold in an hour mabye more. RNG can make heaps more but at least this way is guarenteed. I havnt tried farming Craglorn for mats yet is another way, and theres stealing but thats RNG a lot.
