Ok, so I'm level 15 and I have like 8000 gold which I think really poor so far... What other ways are there to make gold besides selling loot and gather coin missions at the war table ?

[Catastrophy]

Complete Missions? Go to higher difficulty maps - the gold returns should go up noticeably.

[ThelLastTruePatriot]

 The better question is why do you need so much gold? By just playing and selling items, I have like 50k gold. The bulk of that comes from selling dragon loot since the items are unique and they vendor for 2000+ gold a pop, and they're never better than items you can customize yourself anyway.  After I got the nug mounts, the gold virtually had no use except buying a few elfroot here and there so I didn't have to go farm it. So yeah, sell dragon loot, that is the quickest thing I know to do if you don't wanna quest and make trips back and forth to the vendors selling junk. You say you're 15 now, that's 3 levels over the first dragon you should have encountered, the fereldan frostback in the hinterlands.

[Azayat]

I always had more gold than I ever needed and wasn't even trying. Don't buy gear from merchants even if it looks good. Loot is just as good and crafted is always better.

[SpaceV3gan]

Why would you want more than 8k Gold at this point?
I am level 15 with my current character and I have 10k, though I spent 9k buying the Dalish Scout Arrmor and I haven't sold most Unique Items I've come across yet. I've finished the game before and I know that by end game you can make 20k in a matter of few hours, so I am not concerned about gold at all.
Besides, there aren't that many expensive items worth buying in this game anyway (at least not until you get the Short List perk).

You can use Gold to purchase Influence (via Trade Agreements from the Merchant in Skyhold) to fast-track your Inquisition Perks if you want something to spend it on other than Nug Mounts.

The dude is at level 15, which is mid-game. One can not expect to be making tons of cash to buy everything they want at this point. By level 23 you can buy those Trade Agreements like Elfroots, but hardly at level 15.

[Mushashi7]

Forget about the money.

Gold is not very important. Only if you are in need of potions (elfroot) and CBA to run around collecting elfroot.
You can't really buy anything useful from merchants in general. Only later on when you have done some tasks at the War Table some of them will have unique gear to offer. And the good stuff cost a hillarious fortune.

I think the unique armors, weapons and assesories gathered by doing quests are the best supplies. Focus on this and collecting crafting materials instead of gold.
Do sidequests. Astrariums and Shards gives you a good outcome. It takes time and often feels like a long boring desert walk because you're just guided on a tour around the maps. But its worth it. I found the best equipment via quests and tasks. Especially sidequests.

I delete lots of unique armor, weapons and assecories.I usually get them when I have long past the level where I could have had any use of the stuff.

Thanks for the tips... Damn, this game really puts ones patience to the test. I haven't killed dragons yet. By reading your post there is still a ton of things I haven't done.

Do this: unlock the "Cradle of Sulevin" area by discovering the corpse near this location in Emprise du Lion.

 

Run the dungeon (mobs are like level 19, but there aren't too many of them so still doable) and loot all the containers.

BUT, make sure to always leave one item in the containers, gold counts as an item.

 

Then exit the area through the "exit to world map" door and re-enter it. All the containers will have reset.

 

The items there sell for a ton of gold and you'll get some good T3 schematics too occasionally. You can easily make tens of thousands of gold that way.

That method also works in other dungeons, like the one in the Western Approach.

 

Can't say I see this as cheating, it's mostly a game mechanic and pretty much the only way to get certain T3 schematics if you're unlucky otherwise.

 

Gold IS important in the endgame if you want to sort of min/max your character. The merchants in Hissing Wastes / Emprise Du Lion ask for boatloads of gold for their schematics.

It's true that you really don't need to min / max though, chances are that you'll be OP anyhow at that point.

I found a minor flaw in the game that I exploited and I made like 10000 gold just like that.. The giants in the north part of the emarald graves respawn all the time and they drop some good stuff for a level 15 character and I could sell it for a decent buck too. So if someone is greedy and patient enough to kill like 10 or more giants + the annoying brontos that get caught up in the fight will make some good ammount of gold + like 10 000 xp points. I gained 2 levels on that map.

[Eledran]

Yes, there's a lot of things that respawn like that. However, cradle of Sulevin will likely make you a lot more, like 5-10k gold for a few minutes once you've cleared it out first.

 

Of course, there's also the item dupe cheat, but that's cleanly within cheating territory

[Matth85]

Why do people require gold?

I ended the game with near 100k gold, where I had the Nug mount.

 

And don't say influence. Besides a couple of points, it's rather useless. What are you saving up for? Materials? Tier 2 schematics? Ending the game I had 13 points to spend. Of those I had 2 points I never used. I also didn't do a completionist run, or do requisitions. Doing that would get me closer to 20 I believe, and probably have twice the gold.

 

4 codex entires. - 4

5% xp on kill 50% on research. - 2

Optimal cut + Deft hand - 2

4 more potions + 1 more potion slot - 2

Rarer stock from traders - 1

 

Loot stuff. That's where the money is. Sell stuff every time you are in haven/skyhold. It takes about 3-4 hours of gaming to fill my inventory in a new area. Most zones are completed in 1-2 hours (except Hinterlands. that place takes 4-5). So if you go back and sell junk and useless armor every zone you go through, you'll swim in money. If you also pick up every herb, you don't have to buy them. 

Money saves is money earned!

It's the only thing I buy; other than that, gold is useless. We're at the opposite spectrum of DA2, where you had to scratch for every sovereign you could find to get to 50, and then having to spend 4-5 to upgrade armor/gear since crafting wasn't present, and the loot pretty meh.

Well, with my Human Warrior, I have over 500k.... exploits are fun

Second this.  By level 12 I had around 20,000 gold because of this.  I was doing it to farm T3 schematics.

 

The Hissing Wastes merchant sells some of the best T3 armor schematics in the game.  The major ones cost around 15k each.  So if you want to get your party outfitted, it's going to cost a lot of gold.  Unless you get extremely lucky farming or you're willing to farm for dozens of hours.

This is going to sound real dumb, but I have to ask... How do you put something in those ? I open the container, take the loot(i can't find some option to put something in there) and it closes. cannot open it again.   

[Parallax Demon]

You don't put anything in it. Just leave one item. So don't use the button to take all, but pick the items one by one, except one.

Too late for that.... Already emptied almost all crates. Made like 10k gold... Hopefully I'll be able to use this trick somewhere else.

Yep, giant hunting is the easy way to make piles of gold.

Ouch.

 

Yeah, you can't put any items back into any containers in the game. So sadly that place will be lost to you unless you reload an earlier save.

 

You can also do it in the temple in the Western Approach where everything is frozen in time, I forgot the name.

You can do the same trick here, and it is much more efficient. No loading screens at all, no enemies (you gotta fight them only once) and shorter spaces between the chests. I did a few 30 minutes runs last night and each time I got about 17k worth of coins/equipment, not to mention the awesome Tier 3 Schematics.

Just do not tell me you have cleared these chests already...

[Xantium]

   If you want fast easy gold, you can make like 500k gold in less than 10 minutes by duping a crafting item that sells for 20 gold or more and making several thousand of them and selling it. That's what I did, because I needed gold early in the game to buy stuff. Later on in the game you won't even need to use gold for anything. You can max out your influence once you get to Skyhold by buying and reselling the things from that one vendor, just don't exit out of his buy/sell menu.

 

 

 

    I basically dupe crafting materials all of the time, it beats wasting my time farming them all and it's incredibly easy to do.

[DarkAmaranth1966]

Gold isn't a problem. level 17 and over 500K on this playthrough, not even trying, just selling loot I don't need. I don't buy anything in game save the Dalish Allbred mount because I like the color of that one best. Yes I take time to farm the mat I need for armor (dropped weapons are better) but it isn't hard to amass way too much gold.
