If you want to maximize your gold earnings, you should play in PLATINUM currency until you have reached your daily PLATINUM cap !
IMPORTANT NOTES
It is adviced to get a Kin that can kill the Stage 5 Sycamorte Trees easily. (best way to earn gold fast)
A Kin that can kill a Sycamorte Tree is known as a "Tree Killer" (these are simply the stronger Kin out there)
You must be at Trainer Level 20 to unlock Kindred Wilds Stage 5
Tree Farming for platinum (killing Sycamorte)
You need a Tree Killer Kin for this
When you hit the daily Platinum Cap switch to RIG Farming !
See "GOLD / PLATINUM FARMING ► KINDRED WILDS" below
RIG Farming (killing Wild Kins)
You don't need a strong Kin for this. Most areas have weak Wild Kins. (good option for new players)
Killing Wild Kins in any area can give you Capsules or RIGs as a Battle Drop
Sell the Capsules or RIGs in the Marketplace or open the Capsules/RIGs and sell the item received in the Marketplace.
This gives more or less an equal value as Tree farming when selling the Capsules/RIGs.
Opening the RIGs can get you the few very rare items inside that are worth more but chances are low, so that's a gamble in my opinion.
See "RIG FARMING" below
Viperex Farming to get Eye of Viperex (killing Viperex)
You need a Viperex Killer Kin for this.
You only encounter a Viperex Boss about 13% of times.
The drop rate for an Eye of Viperex is quite low.
Selling/opening the Eye of Viperex is worth quite a lot but it could be that the time invested gives you less earnings than Tree Farming because you encounter Trees more often & are certain of your money.
Eye of Viperex drops are rare and therefore might not be worth pursuing.
