How will YOU earn money? : V

» Fri Oct 14, 2011 9:04 pm

Since we already got a topic regarding what you'll spend cash on, a complementary one regarding earning it would be useful too.

Really simple: How do YOU plan on earning CASH in Skyrim?

I'd personally go with #5.

Aaaaaaaaaaand if you're not satisfied by my poll questions then ask and I'll add new ones

I'd suggest maybe making this a multi-choice poll...

Personally, I'll be all about 1, 5, 6 and 7.

Stealing [censored] from the rich and giving it to th.. oh wait [censored] that, I'm keep it all myself, muhaha.

Alchemy and caving/dungeons for me. I also want to do the theives guild first which is normally a good way to get rich quickly!

I have a better suggestion. Add all professions + add an option that says "Quests" + another that says "Dungeon Looting" + Professions that require no skills such as cooking/woodcutting/mining.

I guess harvesting, turning into potions/poisons, and then selling.

Hopefully that works.

If not, then smithing.

Quests is the traditional way I think.

Harvesting... Organs...

» Sat Oct 15, 2011 1:18 am

I'll probably do everything: steal gold, sell stolen stuff, loot bodies of victims, search dungeons, etc.

Ye purveyance of Alchymical potionnes. Draughtes, elixirs, re∫toratives and Gentylleman's aydes for ye bedroome performinge.

I plan to acquire items through nefarious means and then exchange said items for varying amounts of coin ..................................................................................................................................................................................................... going to nick stuff and fence it :biggrin:

Ill make money using every trick in the book. A mix of alchemy, some other form of craft, stealing, dungeon crawling etc....

I AM A HOARDER !!!! I SIT ATOP MY PILE OF GOLD AND USE IT AS DRAGON BAIT!!!! Muwhahaha

...... I love my precious gold :cold:

» Fri Oct 14, 2011 8:58 pm

I make my living trafficing everything I can sell between merchant and dungeon/cave/fort/place with loot.

» Sat Oct 15, 2011 4:52 am

Added multi choice option

Also totally didn't expect to get 12 posts in mere 20 minutes.

» Sat Oct 15, 2011 5:06 am

Voted Thievery. In Oblivion I found it far to easy to steal. You went from having no money to being the richest person in Cyrodill in a couple hours. I hope it's harder this time around but then money has never been a issue in Bethesda games.

Alchemy FTW

This
Dungeon plunder is a good way to make money, but sometimes one needs not to sell some items too soon, as many can be quest related.

Harvesting... Organs...

:bolt:

I won't have a hard, fast single occupation. I plan on looting everything, making as many potions as I can, and basically robbing everyone blind.

» Sat Oct 15, 2011 6:57 am

Stealing from the rich...and stealing from the poor.

» Sat Oct 15, 2011 9:00 am

I'm going to kill bandits wearing glass armor and using ebony weapons.
...
...
What? Wrong game? :mellow:

I hope there is a viable non-violent way to make money. Not that I mind fighting, but it would get old after a while.

Depends on the play-through, but mostly the legal ways.

» Sat Oct 15, 2011 1:03 pm

I'll go with making items and selling them, looting dungeons (hopefully now when we get overencumbered we'll be able to walk, like in Fallout), alchemy, and thievery!

» Sat Oct 15, 2011 12:32 am

I'm going to be a worshiper of Sithis so I'll probably get money from my Dark Brotherhood family. Most likely, I'll take part in alchemical recipes and be a herb maker while being a member of the Dark Brotherhood.

» Sat Oct 15, 2011 12:11 pm

killing thieves and plundering dugeons.

» Sat Oct 15, 2011 6:25 am

depends on my character

1: Orc - will get his money from dungeon raids and selling the items he finds + quests + crafting
2: High Elf - will get her money from playing the trading game (if it is good in this TES)
3: Nord - will get his money through quests and dungeon raids + the main quest (this is my ONLY dragonborn character)
4: Dark Elf - will get her money through thievery, skullduggery and murder
