Steps
Using the Auction House
- Go to Navea City Auction House or to your guild house. One of the best ways to make money in Aura Kingdom is through the virtual auction house. If you get familiar with the market, you can buy low-priced items and then sell them at a higher price.
- You can find these Auction Houses in the Navea City and Guild House. To locate them, check your mini map for the $ sign. If you are in a guild, simply open your guild window and then press "Guild Hall" to teleport into your guild house (this is only available for players with that have guild level 4).
- Buying and selling requires patience, timing, and the ability to know the Aura Kingdom item prices.
- The Auction House is best for items that are not rare, as you will not lose out on profits due to the 10% commission.
- Talk to the Auction NPC. Click the NPC to open the auction window where you can see the list of categories, including the item quality, option for prices, keywords, and level range. The Auction House, AH for short, is used by many players in-game.
- If you're planning to have an item listed for auctioning, keep in mind that you will be charged 10% of your listing price upfront. You will not get this money back even if your item doesn't sell, so make sure you're listing at a fair price.
- Items in the auction will remain in the list up to 24 hours. If the items are not sold during the time frame, they will return to the owner.
- Purchase an item. As mentioned, buying and selling is a good way to earn gold quickly in the game, but you must have the knowledge of the market price to avoid hurting your profit.
- To purchase an item, click the Purchase tab, found at the upper-left of the auction window. Choose what item you're going to purchase by clicking the type under the category, then type in the name of the item under the keywords (make sure that the first letter is Capital), and then hit Enter.
- You can browse the list by pressing the next button that can be found at the bottom part of the window until you find your desired item. Click on the item and then hit Purchase. The item will go straight to your mail.
- Remember to buy low, sell high.
- Sell an item. Open the auction window by clicking the NPC and then pressing “Your Auctions” at the upper-left side of the window. This is where you’ll see the list of items you're selling, the item name, time left, and the price. To sell the item, drag it to the empty box at the upper left of the window or right-click it from your inventory. You have to set the price and make sure you will get a good profit out of it to avoid losing money.
- 10% of the listed price is paid upfront, and you don't get this money back even if your item doesn't sell.
- Confirm all the listing settings by selecting the "List Item" button. Your item will be listed for sale and the displayed fee deducted from your current gold; now you have to wait until someone purchases your item.
- You cannot sell items that are already character bound. You can check whether the item is bound or not by hovering the cursor over the item.
- When an item listed for sale is sold, you will receive a mail with the profits. Click on the letter icon on the bottom left-hand corner of your minimap to open your mail window. Once in the mailbox, click on the letter to open it and the press “Take” to get your gold. The same thing applies for items that aren't sold. Opening the mail will place the unsold item back in your inventory.
Using Chat Trading and Stall Vending
- Sell items using trade chat. In the chat screen, you have probably noticed that people use the trade chat for buying and selling items. Many people choose to use the trade chat channel because you can avoid the 10% Auction House fee by dealing directly with the interested party. This is the best way to sell rare items for maximum profit.
- You can also use trade chat as an additional channel to vend off your gears while you're sitting with your stall up. It sometimes work in your favor to pick up items for cheap.
- It's important to show your items to your customers in the chat so they can see the added options and stats of the product. To do this, open your inventory, move your cursor over the item, hold the Alt key and click the item. The item will be automatically linked in your trade chat.
- If you're going to buy an item from the trade chat, you can click on the item they have linked to see the stat. Message them if you're happy with it, and plan on where to meet to do trading.
- Sell items by setting up a stall. If you go to the market in Navea, you can set up a stall to sell your items out of. Head to Navea City then into the market area. Press B to open your inventory window and then click on the "Open a Stall" button. This will bring up a window that resembles the auction selling window.
- You get to see the empty box where you put the item and then give a price. Aside from that, you also get to customize the name of your stall for other players to know what you're selling.
- To open a personal stall, your character must be at least level 20.
- The best way to do this is to use another computer and character to act as your merchant, or simply leave your character on AFK when you're not doing any hunting.
- Setting up your own stall allows you to set prices without having to worry about the 10% Auction House commission.
Finding Treasures and Rare Items
- Get to level 65. You'll want to be at a high level when you are farming for gold, because this will allow you to enter all of the dungeons in the game instead of just some of them. You can reach level 65 within a week of playing if you Level-Fast-in-Aura-Kingdom.
- Get good treasure hunting gear. If you're not too keen on buying and selling, the best way to get items you can sell is by looting them from dungeons. Wearing gear with a Loot Rate Drop % increases the chance of obtaining both the quality and quantity of items in each dungeon run. In addition, you can also get a 5% bonus when you join a level 5 guild.
- Getting the Loot Drop stat from the Envoy Path also increases the chance and stacks with the percentage of your Loot Drop gear. If you get all the Loot Drop stats, you will get a total of 8% drop increase from Envoy Path alone, so make a good use of it.
- Loot Rate Drop % cards can be purchased from the Cash Shop; these also stack with the percentage rate drop from your gear, including the Envoy Path.
- Get treasure loots from bosses. Treasure loots appear every time you kill the last boss of Hell Mode dungeons. There are also chances that treasure loots appear after you get rid of other bosses. These treasure boxes will give you either a normal loot, loyalty points, rare items, and even costumes.
- Obtaining better loots from the treasure box is also affected by the loot drop rate you have. If you use a Treasure Charm (will give you higher chance of a good drop every time you kill a boss), boss monsters may give you higher-rank loots, which can be sold for a higher price.
- Treasure Charms can be bought from Item Mall using AP and loyalty points. These will increase the number of drops you get from bosses that drop unidentified items. There are three levels of treasure charms, which add 1, 2, or 3 drops.
- Treasure Charms can also be obtained randomly from daily fame quests.
- Conquer dungeons. While you're hunting for rare drops from dungeon bosses, keep in mind that dungeon grinding will also give you gold and silvers. Easily put, simply cycle through the Hell-level dungeons of the top 5 dungeons within your server, and then work on the hard versions when you have more time to play.
- Conquering dungeons will give you silvers for killing monsters. This alone can earn you a significant amount of money.
- You can also sell the green-tiered equipment monster drop at the Auction House for lower prices.
- Sell the crafting materials you obtain per dungeon raiding for additional profit.
- Bosses also drop materials used for crafting equipment and weapon. If you don't need the materials, sell it for more profit.
- Run the best dungeons to get rare gear. You will want to maximize the gold earned per time played, and to do so you will want to run the most lucrative dungeons. Some of the best dungeons to get rare loot are Miner's Steppe (Hard), Other World: Helonia, Temple of Eidolons, and Other World: Skandia.
- These dungeons do not usually give money, but instead give you rare drops that you can sell to other players.
- Do your daily quests and go fishing. Doing your level-appropriate daily quest gives you a chance to obtain yellow weapons; these fetch a good price if it possesses 130% rate.
- With the new patch, the fishing feature also gives good drops but requires starting capital (for gears and bait). Nevertheless, fishing is a good alternative if you don't have time or are too exhausted to do dungeon raiding.
Tips
- Buying and selling may take time to set up since you need to be knowledgeable with the in-game market. Aside from monitoring the most in-demand materials, you have to compete with other merchants as well, so you have to be patient.
