Aristocrat Papers

[Mackenzie]

This are realy expensive to get. 12 gold! I am okay with this except for the fact that I'm being asked for two of them. One from Ms. Charm and the other from the Bishop. Does that mean 24 gold coins or do the papers not get consumed?

Some confirmation on how much I need to save up for would be nice.

just the one set of papers

Thanks.

Problem is, how do you get 12 gold? Since nobody will buy anything from me for more than a few copper (including jewelry), it took 3 weeks of game time just to get 1 gold. This is ridiculous, even by Korean MMO standards (they love their grinds.)

12 gold is 'easy' to make, it's just 'time consuming'.

Sell x5 gold crates, use combo gold prayers and have a graveyard of 400+. Sell some food/wine to merchant/inkeeper, and sell iron parts to blacksmith.

Sell crafted books to astrologer (silver quality only).

Silver quality hardcovers can make gold quality books fairly easily, jfyi ...which I believe sell for twice as much.

I'd also suggest selling silver ingots (if you have a couple stacks of silver nuggets) to the merchant.

I sold crates, gold wine, and made a golden prayer for donations. The prayer can earn you up to 80 silver pieces a week (0.8 gold), depending of the graveyard. If you sell 10 gold crates (5 in the morning, 5 in the evening) for 11 silver each, it's 1.21 gold per week, plus 0.8 from the prayer, that's 2 gold per week.

In my last attemp to complete this game as quick as possible ingame days, i manage to get 3-4G each week.

10 gold crates-->1.1G
5-6 silver lingots-->0.55G
Gold wine --> 0.5-1.1G (gold wine will lower their value week after week, the merchant doesnt reset the price)
Jewelry--> 0.7G-1.35G (after you sell 1 she will have enough money to buy you 2 the next week)

Plus this you can get 0.2G selling silver wine to horadric, plus what you get in your sermon, that would be the 4G/week.

Sadly the merchant only sells/takes the crates when leaving. This was changed in the recent (?) patch. :/ But still, you can make good money out of trading in general an golden prayers. So all of the above adivice is good.
