Honestly - if you ant something done ingame, want to find some OOC information, forget it. Even ingame.
It's kinda like talking to elitist psuedo intellectuals sometimes, cause of the overplayed "spoilers" issue. You will ask , even if you do use the correct out of character formula aka: brackets, you will most likely be met with a resounding wail of ignorance, short, useless answers or somthing else along the same lines.
However they are right when they say there is no get rich quick method, at the moment platinum apparantly sells for alot, but who wants to take the time mining large rocks for ever and a day. Kill things: Rogues, mercenaries etc now drop a decent amount of money so after a few you can get athousand or so tria, which will buy you your next weapon grade. However you'll have to hope they drop new weapons alot unless you wan to go back and do the mining/smithing quest, which at this point in time seems unavoidable seeing as there are no weapon vendors anymore. We can smith weapons but I'd rather just butcher large amounts of people for their money and their possessions. After all, it fits with my character slightly more than hitting rocks with a pickaxe all day.
