Are you in desperate need of gold after seeing something you need for sale? If that’s the case, here’s a quick guide on how to get gold fast in ESO (Elder Scrolls Online) so you’ll always have gold on hand.
Long before the widespread use of Septim as the main currency in Tamriel, people used to buy goods and services through gold coins, which is evident in all the playable regions in The Elder Scrolls Online.
In the game, gold can be acquired in various ways–from taking enemy loot, selling gears or materials, and even pickpocketing NPCs.
However, farming gold in ESO can take some time, especially at lower levels where you don’t have access to some of the game’s additional features, like veteran dungeons.
Keep reading if you’re in need of some serious advice on how to get gold fast in ESO.
How to get gold fast in ESO? Here are five effective ways
Spending your Craft Champion Points on the Gilded Fingers Star
Champion points are unlocked at level 50, and you can spend these points in one of the three champion point trees (Craft, Fitness, and Warfare).
Under the Craft Champion Point Tree, you can use some of your points to enable and upgrade the Gilded Fingers Star, which increases the gold you receive by 2% per stage.
Consider focusing on upgrading the Gilded Fingers Star as soon as you hit level 50 if you want to make gold considerably faster in the later levels.
Buying low and selling high at the guild trader
Go to the guild traders and look for any cheap item that you can find. These items could be anything you think other players might need as well, like crafting materials, Superior and Epic weapons, apparel, etc.
Purchase those items and you can sell them to your own guild trader at a higher price. You can earn lots of gold over time by simply reselling items this way.
Completing daily crafting writs
Daily crafting writs are quests you can keep repeating every day. These quests involve crafting random items that will help increase your crafting skills and provide you with highly profitable rewards.
A daily crafting writ for blacksmithing, for example, can give you a bunch of rewards that are highly sought after by other players, like quality improving materials.
While you can use the rewards for yourself, the stuff that you’ll collect from doing daily crafting writs both increases in quantity and value, which can be converted into thousands of golds upon selling.
Running dungeons
Doing public dungeons is the easiest way to make gold in ESO since you can keep earning money by simply playing the game.
As you fight dungeon mobs, you can get gold through looting and getting weapon/treasure drops from bosses.
Any useless weapon and treasure from dungeons are all sellable and you can earn around 1,500 to 2,000 gold per dungeon run.
Completing events
In-game events in ESO may contain a plethora of limited-time features that allow every player to get and save more gold by selling rare loots, access to more quests, and reduced gold costs for Wayshrine traveling and vendor prices.
Take advantage of events whenever they happen, and you’ll soon be rolling in dough.
