Money-making Methods?

I returned to Maple after.... a one year hiatus, I think, and I have no idea how to go about making money.
What are the best ways of making money nowadays?
I tried looking up guides, but I had no luck.

[quote=meowmeow3687]yo, they gave u not good advices

hs+kanna, level kaisers to lv 33= every 15 min u have a new mule.
10 mules (2.5 hours)= 1 perfect fafnir claw
sell perfect fafnir claw for 6b (clean cost 600m and for 2 hammers another 400m) so u got 5b profit

repeate x10 times and u got 50bil.[/quote]

Due to the spell trace event the market is already flooded with +9 claws. Make android hearts, they can double your profit.

Get a job, that's the best way to get money. If you are talking about the ingame money (mesos), then the best way is also get a job and spend your paycheck on maple.

Right now the best way is to exploit the event and make level 33 mules for 90% scrolls. It's about 600-800mil mesos per hour.

You can either sell service to guild/alliance members, make android heart by yourself or simply sell those mule accounts although this is not allowed on basil/maplestory.

Elite bosses don't need much range, depending on where you're farming, I guess in the higher level maps they do have quite a bit of HP.

Elite bosses and Tower of Oz, you can get quite far without needing much if any range at all.

An excerpt, take what you need.

[b]How do I make money?[/b]
[i]This section is a work in-progress but I will post some basic notes.[/i]
Take advantage of all events with a coin shop. Invest in a pet because looting with a pet is much more helpful and it helps you when you train with the auto hp/mp skills too. Things that sell all the time are spell traces, collect them. Potions and other things from bossing can be NPCed for mesos but they can also be extracted and broken down for Monster Crystals used for crafting, extract them in Ardentmill to farm monster crystals that also sell for a pretty decent amount.

I would learn your profession skills and start mining/crafting as soon as you can to get those levels up. High level potions, accessories, and even equips can be sold at a pretty decent amount. Work for it. If you're not willing to put in the effort, don't expect to be as rich as everyone else. Every little bit counts.

Another thing is to keep note of prices. Spell traces generally go up during fever time so it's possible to do some reselling here but I wouldn't depend on that.

[b]Things to look out for/Advice[/b]
Take advantage and read the notes on the website, there are many events that cubing and scrolling are listed on the main page. It's not hard to find and don't spam around asking for it, you'll easily see it there with flashing colors and you are told way ahead of time to prepare. Training during 2x times doesn't hurt but grab a map a head of time by a few hours because they get packed in the higher level areas. Don't fret, you may choose alternative training areas.

Pick up a spider familiar for drop rate, it really helps with farming. If you wish to hunt for one, at around level 80 go to Verne Mine in Edelstein, these also fetch a pretty decent profit at about 10m a familiar depend on server. What's neat is using the spider familiar will also help you find more familiars quicker.

Investing in a pet is also a good choice, you can now do so by farming rewards points in star planet and by daily bosses. The rewards shop includes a pet and water of life when your pet dies.
