How do I make money as a complete noob?

I started GMS in 2005, and I can't remember how I made money. I mean, not at all. I think I made my first million by hunting fire boar with my i/l and then depositing half of my looted money into storage, and spending the remaining half on pots, haha. But anyway, to the point. I restarted in EMS because my friend lost access to her account, and so far it's been dull and frustrating. Usually I'd pwn 1~25 within a couple of hours. But here I am, a str-less level 20 wind archer, and my only source of income is selling fame and looting. So far, I've been scammed more times than I've been payed. Sucks, dude. So my question is, are there any quests that I can do for mesos? (besides jane and the wild boar, which I already know about) I'm hoping to be able to afford a maple bow by the time I'm level 35... Oh, and, you know, POTIONS. xD Here's hoping.

You can sell the letters that the monsters drop. They sell from either 1k-4k depending on how desperate people are. Easy way to make money.

I spotted someone earlier in Kradia FM selling GFA60% for 2.5mil. I know that's not exactly ultimate riches, but it's fantastic. I could probably get a maple bow (albeit pretty lame) for about that, maybe a little more. That's perfect. Subani's legacy... where abouts is that, again? >_>'' lol

hmm,when youre like 3x you can do those quests in showa.That girl sakura gives some scroll. hmm i just realize people sell letters cheaper when its earlier and when the event starts ppl tries to buy them for like 7k ea but this works when you have many sets.

Right now I have one full set of letters... How much, roughly, do you think they would sell for?

I'll tell you, but I'm afraid I'd have to kill you... Nah just kidding feel free to add me as buddy (whisp me first) on either ArrowYoFace or SacredAsh and ill invite you to my guild (if we have space) and I'm sure they'll be more than happy to help, as am I. But yes getting to CPQ getting 7 medals and getting a gephart (under thief equips 35 dagger) and npc'ing that will net you 150k a piece then do subanis legacy, also get a junior and sell family 2x exp sell, money first, for an easy 2m (party 2x exp for 30mins is 5k rep)

Selling letters dropped from monsters is also a good income. This'll also come in handy . P.S./Off-topic: Thanks for offering to help me today
