Coins Of The Realm - Making Gold In The New Elder Scrolls Online


As The Elder Scrolls prepares to morph into its own Massively Multiplayer Online world the denizens of Tamriel are buzzing about the upcoming release. The buzz is that the New
Elder Scrolls Online just might be the best MMORPG ever. It is certainly adding new twists for player versus player fans. A release date in 2014 hasn’t been announced, but enough press has leaked out during Beta testing to get an idea of some basic strategy. As with any game in Beta, anything you hear or read now can change before release.

Some Guide company has already jumped ahead of the game by opening up for preorders of the ultimate TESO strategy leveling guide. If you need build tips to get you kitted out with the best armor and weapons to succeed in your gold earning quests, this is sure to be a great resource.

And isn’t gold what it’s all about? The game within the game. Sure there’s all that killing and destroying stuff but what about the farmers? If you think there’s money to made, then you are probably looking for the easiest way to make some. Am I right?

TESO will have opportunities to earn loot and valuable gear in both player vs environment (PvE) and player versus player (PvP) areas of the game.

The PvP area in the central province of Cyrodiil is automatically accessible to players reaching level 50. Players as low as level 10 can participate with a special power leveling system. In PvP players earn gold and other resources by working with their alliance to take and control major strongholds and resources. In TESO, unlike many games, fortresses that are damaged or destroyed do not reset when your alliance takes control. Resources must be expended to rebuild walls and and defend them.

Players can also make gold in the PvE areas in the outlying provinces by going on quests or becoming a merchant. Each player can join up to five different guilds and each guild has its own store were members can buy and sell resources.

There are no real-money auctions in TESO and many people hope that the rampant inflation that exists in many online games will be discouraged here because of the Megaserver platform. But, as feverish as the fans are to bash down the gates to the imperial city, the gold farmers are just as impatient.

Spam sites with “buy TESO gold” keywords sprinkled amongst garbled text are already springing up. When the price of custom battering rams goes up Tamriel you can bet there will be virtual gold available to purchase online for real dollars.
