Money-Making Strategies

Treasured Hoards in the Dwarven Mines

  • Unlock Dwarven Mines
  • 5-10 million coins per hour
  • Planned to use until enough money for starter dungeon setup

Unexpected Money-Making Method

  • Anonymous tip about making 150 million coins/hour
  • Initially skeptical, turned out legit
  • Relies on RNG, but could make 50 million coins/hour on the low end

The Strategy

Taming Update and Bow Pets

  • Certain pets required to raise level cap
  • Bow pet value increased
  • Drop from Bow Boss in Crystal Hollows
  • Drop rate mechanics: every hit on Bow Boss procs a chance for a pet drop
  • Optimized setup could theoretically make 60-150 million coins/hour

Getting Started

  • Need to unlock Crystal Hollows -> Commission grinding (3 hours)
  • Starter setup:
    • B pet (survival in magma fields)
    • Short bow and full Werewolf armor with Hyper reforges
  • Advanced setup:
    • Half Terror half Werewolf
    • Duplex Terminator with 100% attack speed, SOS Flare

Grinding the Method

  • Finding Bow structure:
    • Don’t click on Topaz Crystal
    • Dig tunnel outside the structure
    • Respawn technique: leave structure and return
  • Reminder: Add piercing to bow if using Terror setup

Results and Progress

  • First legendary bow pet drop: 34 million coins
  • Additional drops within 15 minutes
  • Shifted focus to Terror armor (combat 22) after 18 hours of grinding

Final Thoughts

  • Method makes a lot of money but is boring
  • Preferred to do dungeons for more fun
  • Potential streaming idea for interaction

Outro

  • Apologies for the delay due to sickness and being busy
  • Looking forward to Episode 3
