Disclaimer

Many people post guides and videos on how to make gold but this one is under-utilised and quite frankly is never detailed so because I myself found it useful I am posting it here with details and later pictures once I have them.

Please note that this method is agonisingly slow but it is reliable because once started you require little to no gold to maintain it and it does not need the auction house to get your gold.

What's needed

To make use of this guide a few things are needed.

  1. Time and patience.
  2. Preferably a teir 2 or 3 or better set of fishing gear
  3. About 18 gold(No money making scheme ever starts for free no does it lol)
  4. Access to Triatio highlands.

Note: The reason we use triatio is because the method requires we get our hands on 3 certain items and while we can get these items from the same grade fish on any map the fish we target in Triatio has a smaller drop pool than any other fish so far as I know and the bait we want for it is cheap. This means fishing for it is sustainable and we get a slightly better chance at our wanted items then anywhere else.

Method

Ok so now we have our fishing gear together(The better the gear the faster this goes so always keep looking for better sets) and we have arived at Triatio Highlands.

Step 1) Go to our fishing hole.

Step 2) Buy 1000 earthworms from the fishing merchant nearby(Should cost about 18 gold)

Step 3) Go fishing.

Note: This step is not the end product and you can do it a lazy way. By Setting the character up to auto-fish you will catch lots of junk fish while you read a book or watch a movie or something but make sure you keep your ear out fo the louder more grating sound of a heavy fish on the line.( you will know what I mean when you hear it) This is an Orange grade fish(In this case a Highlands Ghost crab) and you want to switch back to the game and manually reel him in because auto-fishing will NOT let you catch orange grade fish.

Step 4) Now you have used all 1000 earthworms it is time to open your fish. So open all the
Ghost Crabs you got and see what you get.


Step 5) I will note all the items you can get in the other fish later but in the Ghost crab you
will come across a number of items we need. 1st is a recipe for a Sturdy Fishbone
Hauberk which is a nice piece of fishing gear if you can get the whole set
(I will note this and other inmy fishing section later in the guide).
2nd is Materials needed for crafting fishing gear
(keep these for a later step)
3rd is our real target. 3 items named Gold Fish, Platinum Fish
and Diamond Fish. These 3 items sell for 1G, 5G and 50G respecively with
each being increasingly rarer than the one before
(example platinum is much harder to find than gold)
Step 6) Go to Anglers Anonymous Merchant Annette in Navea
and sell all your Gold, Silver and Platinum fish for gold.
Also sell all the materials you got from the orange fish as this will get you Fishing Tokens.

Step 7) Use your new fishing tokens to buy the Fresh River Snail.
Buy as many as you can afford. The more the better but only up to 1000.
Use this instead of earthworms as unlike the worms this will get you a ghost crab in
Triatio 100% of the time as long as you are not auto-fishing.

End result) You can now fish for the Highlands Ghost crab and not have to bother with
Lower class fish and also you no longer need gold to do this.
You can also get our 3 gold making items to sell for gold and more items
to sell for fishing tokens at ZERO expense.
I also believe you will have repaid the original 18G by the time you used
all your Fresh River Snails so from then on it's pure proffit.

NOTE: Whenever you manually fish you may encounter penguins is varrying strength which will try to steal your fish. Which penguin you get will depend on the fish you reel in.
Regular fish of white and green quality will give you Penguin bandit and defeating him will give Bandit tokens, Orange quality such as Highland Ghost crab will give you Nymphet Pictured Below


Which gives you her token Small Tea Flower.
For Fish kings it's Nebuchadnezzer who gives you his dagger.
All these items can be exchanged with one of the fishing Association NPCs in Navea for a lucky pack which conteins either fishing equipment relative to the penguin you got it from or Materials which can be used for crafting fishing gear or sold for fishing tokens.

Notes about updates

Please note that while the guide for making gold is all but complete I still intend to add a section about general fishing including a recommended path of gear, contentes of certain fish and other things.
I also intend to post pictures to ilustrate the guide.
If you have pictures that are relavent to this guide pleas post them on Mega and post the link.
If I think those pictures are what I am looking for I will post them and give full credit.
