how to get silver easy

[Aragorn]

hi guys any one have a good guide how to make silver easy in Bdo 2017 ?, any good easy video on youtube for biginner , every help appreciated ,thanks.

Not that many videos out there, as people usually want to keep their money making methods a secret to prevent too many from doing the same method. This is to possibly prevent their income from going down.

However, there is information that has floated around on how to make silver and still works as a pointer in the right direction for those new to the game.

1. Fishing/AFK Fishing is great income for beginning players. Not many contribution points required for now and the event for increased relic shards is in effect. Don't fish that much, but I have heard that fishing inland yields more relics.

2. Pure Grinding on mobs, picking up all their loot will give silver and exp. Some people can reach 10mil/hr at as low as Sausans or Wandering Rouges, and can reach even 20+mil/hr sometimes. This of course will most likely require 4 T1 pets, some weight increases, and good clear speed to see results like this. This is also the activity where you are always active.

3. Build your Contribution to 255 for soft cap. Calpheon dailies or cook simple stuff such as beer or essence of liquor is your best bet to get to 255 within a month. You can also do the Valencia 1/2 questline for a good spike in contribution. Afterwards, invest in nodes that your workers can work at. Skilled-Artisan Goblins are usually your go to for now until you research if a different worker is better for that specific node, which is rarely the case I add. You may go Giant workers though if you know you can't feed your workers every 2-4 hours.

4. Ever wonder why there are sooo many people around storage people? This kinda ties in to number 3, but requires a lot of materials (mats) to be an effective afk income. Processing certain mats like planks or metals will yield lots of money, but this also requires knowledge on how the market is doing with a particular item. You can't make money if too many of a single mat is being sold on the marketplace at the time, so be careful when making a certain mat. A maid outfit may be required to do longer afk processing.

5. Trading can be profitable and can tie with processing and fishing. Given that the required nodes are all connected to each other, you can make a higher profit selling your trading stuff from a place much, much further away to the origin point of where the items came from. Some methods may not be worth it though without Master 2 trading, and I would not recommend getting to Master 2 right now as the recent patch massively nerfed the exp gained from trading items.

Hope that helps you starting out ~

"Not that many videos out there, as people usually want to keep their money making methods a secret to prevent too many from doing the same method. This is to possibly prevent their income from going down."

That's simply not true and he just gave you alot of bad advice, refer to people who are actually doing solidly researched guides, here's some good ressources that you will love to have if you want to dig into stuff, i'll link them at the end of my post.

In general everything that you do active yields more than anything you do afk. It's also important to not that this is a game afterall so you do what you feel is fun and then try to optimize that, your observation though is correct, selling and training horses is a bad income.

1. Fishing is ok, but not really great and most of all not interactive, it also requires to be really profitable a massive investment in the pearl shop, and patience to be leveled up, i do not recommend it for new players at all, engage more in active lifeskilling. For afking it's sort of ok but not great either especially when you're newish.
Also relic fishing is terrible, reasons here:

2. This is true.

3. That's somewhat correct, in general just boost your contribution points so you can hire workers that do the work for you while you play. You don't need 255 immediately, just collect a couple points each day and invest them into lodging / workers, until at least 150 - 200.

4. Correct, processing is the easiest and most profitable afk skill for almost everyone it also can be done somewhat with what you have. The more weightincreases you have from the pearlshop the longer you can stay afk without babysitting. In general try to remember this: the first processing step in a ressource is the most valuable one most of the time. For instance turning logs into planks is increasing the value of the material alot, Processing planks into plywood only increases the value a little, always try to process raw materials.

5. Trading is NOT a viable thing for 99% of the people because if you ask questions like OP does you're not even close to the stage of it being profitable. Leveling up trading is done mainly for a buff you get at Master Lvl 2 which takes you ALOT of time to reach with active trading (which is boring as hell), and even then you need to have a whole manufacturing empire behind you to make it worth it, it's also very easy to just burn your money in it if you do it wrong, i strongly advise even touching trading. If you want to quit the game early go into trading by all means.

You will find a section for each lifeskill at the top. Some of these guides might be to advanced for you yet but you'll come back to it in time, believe me.

I'd have to disagree. It's really, really hard to make no money off trading unless you have little to no brain-cells.

While traveling around, always buy one or two low-priced items from trading npcs and sell them to the place you're traveling to, although only do this if you've connected the towns using contribition points. As you're doing this, you'll be earning a little bit of pocket change, of like 100-500 silver, which isn't really all that much, but you'll be raising your trading skill over time.

So what lvl with trading are you at ?

1. Log in. games gives you Silver every day you log in from House fame fund. If guild, get money from guild every day

2. Do stuff. Kill stuff and loot makes silver. Gathering makes silver.. Processing and selling makes silver

@Sir Snipeington - I urge you to not claim that 'a lot' of my info is bad for thought, then agree with about half of what I was bringing up. This information that I brought up is mostly from firsthand experiences with the game, and the hundreds of hours of observing and researching what I see others going for ingame and around forums.

I will clarify the points you refuted though just to give out a tad bit more info for OP:

1. I already specified that I don't fish a whole lot, but gave a recommendation to do relic fishing because of the event in progress. Never said relic fishing is the best afk fishing income.

3. Why stop around 150-200? The soft cap begins at 255 and you can still gain about 1-2 from doing 15 minute dailies. Passive income through workers is arguably one of the best afk income as it ties in with a lot of lifeskill income. Never said OP had to do it right away, but it would be beneficial for the long run.

4. You may earn more silver processing the mats into a certain type, but you must think opportunity cost. If there is too many of one kind of processed/non processed mat on the marketplace, you are possibly setting yourself up by not being able to sell that kind of mat for however long (most likely beyond the 30 days in the marketplace).

5. Trading without M2 is profitable from what I see. Even Biohack, the one that made the part of the guide you linked, said so with this reddit post that copied and pasted some of his guide. https://www.reddit.com/r/blackdesertonline/comments/5wsl1j/psa_you_dont_need_master_2_trading_to_make_money/

Regarding afk fishing:

Fishing in freshwater does not necessasrily yield more relics, but it yields fewer gold/blue/green fish and therefore takes longer to fill your inventory, giving you more chances at relic rolls.

If you are going into fishing afk, you want to make a Balenos rod and improve it to the point where you still have rod left when your inventory fills (or your inventory is almost full when your rod expires). As you expand your inventory, work on enhancing your rod as well.

The reduction of 25% in afk fishing time from a +10 balenos is significant. If you can add a penguin or a polar bear to the mix, you can have a reduction of 50% in your afk fishing time.
