[Guide]Factions: How to make money

Post by Reece » Tue May 15, 2012 5:39 pm

Hello!

It seems some of you are having quite some trouble making money in factions. As we all know, creating a faction costs $2000, and most of the commands also cost money. Clearly, getting money is an important key to success in factions. This guide will give you tips on how to make money to your heart's desire!
  • Build close to the spawn! The city is the center of all activity, and that includes trade and commerce. In order to make money, you have to be able to access the city. Nowhere else can you trade. This will be where you make money.
  • Just like any other survival map, resources are key! Get mining as soon as possible. Once you've built up a sum of 5 or 6 diamonds, go to the city. There is a trader in the city called Norman the Oreman. He will buy these diamonds from you for $200 each. Or, alternatively, you can take advantage of the player-player economy and put the diamonds up for sale for a higher price. To do this, simply type /sell <amount> diamond <price>.
That's it! Simple, isn't it? Just rinse and repeat, and you will be making bags of cash in no time! You can also try other things, such as quests, raiding, etc. Remember, cash is key, and if you want to be successful, you must have it!

Im having some second thoughts about this. 1. You have to buy to create a faction. 2. You have to pay to go to you faction base. 3. You cant go back to spawn :( with /spawn. I don't want to pay for everything i do. I'll just deal with it.

Well at least it stops the idiots re-creating factions when their power gets low. Fair fight now.

I wish you mentioned this before I went a far ways out. :(
Some people have pure awesomeness down here. Others have jokes or witty puns. Still others use this for self reminders, or pictures. The signature is a very useful place, but I have no use for it other than to bore you with this long, unnecessary piece of text.
