Fast Sanctum Runs for easy money

[hoboonaparkbench]

Running Sanctum of the Burning Souls takes me about 14 minutes per run, then 2 more for resetting and buffing. I make around 10-13 silver per run, making it the best way to make money until the late level 50s. Here's what you do:

1. You must be around level 46 or 47, be sure all mobs inside are gray to you. Enter instance, and buff up. Kill first boss, skip the altar boss (unless you were smart and didnt turn in the summon quest, if you didn't abandon current quest, pick it up again, and loot holy idol off first boss, and kill altar boss), kill the blood boss, the princess, and then the final boss, bypassing all trash mobs. Once done with bosses, jump off cliff outside final boss room, and die.

2. Rez at the entrance graveyard, and then zone out into Epic Mode Wild Lands of Zelata. This will prevent you from being ganked while outside.

3. Next, look in OOC or the new Aquilonia channels, and invite a random person. Promote them to leader, and then enter instance. Leave the party, and if they ask "whats group for?" or w/e.. just say, "invited wrong person" to prevent people from declining future invites.

4. Repeat steps 1 and 2.

5. You only have to repeat step 4 every other entrance into instance. The instance resets for each new leader when entering. Thus first time you were leader, its your's.. Second time, it was hte person you invited and promoted to group leader.. third time it'll be you,.. etc etc..

You will make around 45s per hour running this in the above fashion.. don't bother looting the items, they only sell for 1-2 copper per. Loot the items you may still need, and/or spam in Aquilonia and OOC channels saying you're selling loot. Say 4-5s per item, or 10-14s per run. Make sure it's around these values or higher, or youw ont make money after all the money inside is split between you and the person you're running through. Make them stay at entrance, and roll need on the items they paid for.

I'm about to be able to afford my mount after only a couple hours of farming this instance, and at level 48.. 10-20 levels before most people get their mounts, unless they have preorder one.

whoa i believe this is a repost...

[hoboonaparkbench]

Ah, really? Doubt it is as detailed!

[jackdaripper]

many detailed reposts have been made before

[hoboonaparkbench]

Well, I searched twice, didnt find anything, perhaps I searched wrong. Oh well.

[zapbolt]

Thanks, gonna go try it now xD

You don't need to make the person you invited leader. Any change in the group makeup will reset the instance. Happy Farming!

Ah, didn't know that, I do know though, that inviting, making them leader, aand then dropping party inside instance will make it so i dont have to invite seomeone on the next run, when i enter as a solo party, as my own leader.

What class are you exactly? Because I'm close to this level, and I've heard of doing this, so I wanna know how fast I might be able to kill the bosses etc.

[hoboonaparkbench]

I'm a necromancer, my ToS friend did it at 46, and many other people can do it around this lvl too.

Alright, thanks, I just have a few more levels to go to be able to do this.

I confirm that it is a repost: http://www.mmowned.com/forums/age-co...ing-souls.html

An advice, you don't need the group trick to reset the instance.
Just log off and relog without leaving the instance.
You will repop only the second and the fourth boss but you will save a lot of time.

Considering the bosses all drop between 1-3s per, its a waste of time skipping any of the bosses, let alone 2.

[hoboonaparkbench]

Here's some boss silver drop values I got in the runs I did. Not counting altar boss, which I cant summon.

Run #----Boss 1 ----Boss 2 ---- Boss 3 ----Boss 4
1 ----------1.48s -----1.48s ------4.18s ------1.18s
2 ----------2.90s -----3.22s ------2.74s ------3.22s
3* --------0.62s -----1.30s ------1.65s ------0.86s
4* --------1.58s -----1.15s ------0.90s ------1.63s
5 ----------3.04s -----2.09s ------4.63s ------1.29s
6 ----------1.84s -----2.47s ------4.73s ------3.34s
7 ----------1.94s -----2.89s ------4.17s ------1.43s
8 ----------1.24s -----2.68s ------2.37s ------2.98s
9 ----------1.08s -----2.37s ------4.06s ------1.30s
10 ---------3.17s -----2.59s ------3.02s ------2.12s
11 ---------2.77s -----2.81s ------2.27s ------2.52s
12* -------1.49s -----1.36s ------1.85s ------0.88s
13* -------1.35s -----1.32s ------1.13s ------1.02s

* Runs in a group while selling items, so take those values and multiply by 2.


As you can see, the values for each boss is random, between 1.00s and 5.00s, making skipping any boss a bad idea, and counterproductive to farming this instance.

Alright people. Remember the rule about reposts? If you call it, you must take the time to go through the posts and get the OP and post the link here. Please don't just call out random reposts. I for one did not know this, thank you.

Edit:Like Knight64. He knows the ropes.
