How are people so rich

Whenever I look at trades and see people bidding like 15 to 25 is the highest I've seen, I wonder how you people are so rich. I consider myself lucky to have gotten my hands on an Enigma(only through extensive trading including other sites). To those who are so rich, please tell me how to make a fortune like yall

15 to 25

Jah, my mistake

Keep in mind that a lot of people on non-ladder have been playing since D2R came out, which was... *checks notes*... over 4½ years ago. That's a lot of time to accumulate Wealth, and non-ladder econony never resets. The more you trade the better you get at it, right? It's easy to end up stockpiling those high runes after a while, and then you can throw them around in trades when there's an item you really want.

It's not like ladder where the economy does a complete reset every 3-4 months, everyone starts from 0. Nobody throws around that kind of Wealth until mid/late season, and only very few reach that level of Wealth during a single season, need some extremely lucky drops (or just be a very active & good trader).

You play a lot.

It also compounds.
It took me a lot longer to get my first Enigma than my second, and so on. Same with HoTo/CTA etc.

Also know what to trade for. The right bases are worth a pretty penny.

Also I'd say Enigma is the beginning, not the end. It's a drop in the bucket compared to some items.
Obviously talking about Bnet here, not SSF/offline.

You have to understand , it is different world compare to it just release.

The 1

Jah value in old days is complete different than today's 100

Jah. And even today, some value difference still apply.
(something like you sell them into real world, get them back now, it will be much more than just 1

Jah that everyone agree, I think it will be more than 100

Jah too...)


Let's say an very easy example, not for that long long change. (For example, you sell all your good old torch in rotw just release for just 3

Jah. Til today, you can get them back with less than 1

Jah)
Not mention about other obvious high profile good old world item.


Example
Sorc 20/20 30 -> 10

Jah
Sorc 19/20 8 -> 2.5

Jah

The beginnings of my Wealth began from finding insanely rare runeword bases and skiller GCs tbh.. just takes finding one insane piece of gear that is worth a lot of

Jah runes in order to kickstart a buy low, sell high type of Hustle! Everything adds up eventually! Keep farming! I would really suggest looking into and figuring out what are the most valuable pieces of gear and keeping an eye out for those. Took me a while to figure out the runeword base game but if you find the right one.. you're golden!

That answer kind of right, I see drastic market value change in rotw. Most of bot move there.
Makes some item in LoD market shortage, price hike almost triple compare to rotw world.

All it takes is one lucky drop to become “rich” over night, and no im not talking a high rune - im talking about a sought after unique with perf roll,l and/or a rare sought after item, those will get u rich overnight.

The standard get rich is through playing, smart trading(buy low sell high), through market predictions. Overall, once u start to have a feel of d2r items value, you will start to accumulate Wealth pretty quickly

usually, I recommend invest way to 'add value', buy and hold.

I have a friend that he is more focus on market side. (not even open game to play in 1 hour per week I guess) Previously he tried to manipulate

Zod pricing by throw massive of

Jah into market in LoD days.
And he didnt success after throw 'a lot' of

Jah. The exchange rate still remain like it was.(I dont know rate accurately, maybe 4-5

Zod per

Jah?) Ends up several thousand of

Zod in different account. He quit because of this failure trade, ends up fill up with lots of unusable

Zod that market dont accept as currency. If he come back today, he will have 4-5 x than he was used to trade. That will makes him able to buy anything or did another crazy market manipulation...


I also follow up that move but with tiny purchase....

return is really good I have to say. several

Jah return into 300% gain

Some of my gem purchase fee comes from here...

--There still another crazy move exist today, like purchase all

Zod make it become 2

Jah per

Zod. But I think it may end up like my friend's result, throw 10k thousand of

Jah , rate still same. But it looks like a viable investment to keep

Zod wasn't bad today. --

It's primarily from trading. MFing can make you some here and there, but realistically you're not going to end up with a bunch of HR mules just selling stuff you MF'd. There are lots of possible gg items you could find, but you'd sooner win hundreds of millions playing the lottery. Not to say you'd be broke just MF'ing, but you're going to spend a long, long time doing it to get enough to find/buy the items to make something like a top end ES

Nova sorc.

Part of it is learning the market cycle on Ladder. There's a general order of items desired as Ladder matures that you can try to preempt to get the biggest value out of some item when it's hot. Normal players usually want the things that are going to make the biggest impact on their character's power/utility, so they chase the biggest bang for their buck. This drives demand up a lot until that saturates and then it starts to drop as people move onto the next step in gearing up. You can make a lot of

Ist value just farming for things before they're in super demand and learning when to move onto the next big thing.

Mass volume of perf Gems can be turned into a lot of Runes. Even now after the new stash many players use gems to make cube stuff
you can toss together dozens of perf gems in a days farming I think the going rate for 6 is about an

Ist rune it varies yet a few

Ist can buy a higher rune.

It's all in how you chose to approach it don't forget just doing Gem runs will also find other items people might want. Trading Items is a bit slower except the super rare's

You could be just a run away from finding that small charm or rare that is worth so many

Jah keep grinding.
