Albion Online is one of the most famous PVP-DROP games of all time
Albion, Like ultima online, is known by the their wildest environment where players lose all their items, loots, inventory or to sum everything they equip and/or carry on their characters when they die. (sounds wild isn't it?)
So how can we make money over a pvp drop game?
By pvp?
- Where there are 20+ zerg vs zerg wars in an open world map in any given time
- Where there are hidden gankers waiting to gank and hunt the solo players who is up for short fortune
- Where there is a terrible lantency/lag so you die even before pressing your skills? (servers are located in the USA a huge drawback)
By Crafting?
- Where there are crafting building mafias all over the game whom wait and buy/rent every possible building and charge every single crafter to make even more money (and just by sitting on their couch)
- Or where there are big big big companies who are bringing their money together to craft together so the crafting cost could go way way way low for a solo player who in the end gives up on crafting and starts to buy from the open market?
By gathering?
- Where there are piranhas(gatherers like you, me) waiting all over every single resource area to gather every single resource as soon as they occur?
So it is all crazy and wild in the world of Albion yet quite fun because of the challenges, and the rough environment but it is also makes it possible for one to generate hell amount of silver in return with alot of different ways
Still i rather do Caravan alone than to do all of these crazy stuff that i just mention.
Why?
Because i can do it solo and there is no such thing as Caravaning, at least the game designers are not aware of it nor they have implemented a single skill or a single code for the market slippage :)
What can we do? We can go to a blackzone city (or any other city to buy stuff for cheaper price and sell it on another city by bringin all of the things/resources/items anything that can be sold from one city to the other)
Because this game has an open economy and whatever is equipped in this game comes from a real person like you or me, who gathers, crafts or claim the items from the chests in the dungeons!
So why caravaning is better than rest of the activities we mention?
Because as there are no official skills or abilities for this type of thing, which means as there is no such thing, players are not doing that, players are not ware of it, players just do what the official game tutorial shows them to do i.e Resource gathering and advancing in gathering and hoping to sell the high tier resources that they aim to gather 3-6 months from now!
or hoping to become a highly skilled and advanced pvper who could do 1vs3 and still walk away with the loot or even hoping to buy some houses, buildings in the cities by doing alot of dungeons so that they could start to manage a passive income one day. These are all high in demand, and everybody is trying to achieve that but on the other hand, there is no single guide, tutorial or reward for the people who would go from one city to the other and do a market slippage (buy cheap sell higher)
That's how i generate $100 (USD) in just 2 hours a day
And it is all possible because the game has an open market plus the game has no official caravaning type of activity (yes there is one but it is not something even closer to what i do, what exist is a quest where you pay 750k to get 1.5m in 1 hour and when you get the quest your character starts to shine and everybody knows that you bring goods so they try to kill you, when they succeed they get the 750k)
The caravaning that i do is STEALTH and nobody knows whether or not if you carry anything valuable on your character and to do that i use techniques like buying the cheapest possible armor, and the mount so that people whould think that i am a beggar and they would let me walk away (While not knowing the fact that i carry goods on me which worth easily 2-3 m if not 5-10 or 15m) and 80.000.000 of game silver are $100 USD worth so that's how easy it is :)
Notice: these can't be found on youtube as it is something that nobody wants to share :) because very few people knows it and they do it for themselves because if everybody was doing it, then the competition would be high and the prices would go up and if the prices would go up then doing other activities would be more profitable i.e one can gather 1.5m silver worth of resources if they are max gathering skill (takes good 8 -9 months or more to get there)
or one can easily make a mil of silver by dungeon cleaning and so on but with the kind of caravaning you can easily make 1.5m in 15 mins easily risk free, if you take risks and invest in it by buying expensive shit (if you die or sorry, it is not if, it is when, it is just a matter of time, you will die soon or later so it is not if, it is when you die you lose all of the goods so that's why i don't like to carry 10-15 m silver anymore as i died and lost those 10-15m silvers at least 50 times already for the past 3 years) but yeah you can make 1.5m silver in 15mins with just under 300k budget all you have to do is to put buy orders and log in next day to carry these things in 15 mins so you make 1.5m and the next day you put 1.5m worth of orders and so on
ITEM CHOICE
Is the most important part of it, it is common for people to use OX in this game because they have more hp and they are harder to dismount than the horses, and if they can't dismount you, you can walk away and if you do walk away, you survive so you don't lose anything
So Here are the smart item choices
Don't go and invite everybody into your own death by buying the strongest item but also the expensive cause people can inspect your armors and if they see something valuable they would never let you go
Be wiser on your choices so you can save even more money
You are going to be carrying 1.5m worth of items, why would you wear a cape which has 1.5m price on it, plus they borth do the same thing, the 80k one and 1.5m one has the same abilities, so there is no reason to buy the expensive one, not at all!
Bags / consumables
Don't buy the cheapest bag as they are expensive but the higher tier ones are cheaper in buy/sell value you even make 5k profit per bag if you buy expensive :)
Don't try to be the smartest person in the room on your food choices as trying to save from food could be lethal, if they dismount you you may want to be able to run if you are overweight you can't
Speed / Weight test
But when you eat you are green and fast and healthy as you survive :)
Remember, if you die, you will lose everything on you, so buying the cheapest possible items are important otherwise it makes the ROI harder, you won't be going to die once for a long time but there are times where you die repeatedly so it is vital to be able to recover from these deaths, and to do that you must invest in the items that are i.e at least 1/3 price of what their actual price so that you could i.e spend 1m in them and make 3m silver when you sell them. So if you go next time and die, you still made profit and you could still go back and try at least 2 more times and on my experience i only die 1/10 so the roi is way way easy for me (it takes a bit skill too but you will make profit anyhow with 1/3)
