Kingdom of Amalur Gold Farming
Earning Gold By Looting Chests
Be a pirate or thief, loot everything that comes your way. You won’t find gold in every chest but the items you found through the kingdom are worth selling.
If you find something more valuable than your current gear then you can not only upgrade that particular item but also sell the old ones to get some gold. Now these chests aren’t that obvious so try to keep your focus and don’t miss any corner worth searching.
Farming Gold By Destroying Objects
The imploring gameplay of Amalur makes you feel like destroying everything that comes your way or lying nearby and that’s exactly what you need to do to farm gold.
Destroying objects like boxes and urns earn you gold but how to make them respawn is the question, because we also want to save our time, don’t we ? You can make them re-spawn by sleeping. You can either sleep in the inn or at your house.
You can sleep for a couple of hours and when you wake up, wait a bit to allow the boxes to respawn since they need both game-time and real-time to respawn.
Farming Gold By Collecting and Selling Plants
Similar to boxes, you can collect and sell plants to earn gold. You can make the re-spawn by sleeping in the inn or at your house. After you wake up, wait a bit and go collecting these plants again. You can sell them to merchant and earn Gold.
Earning Gold From Shards and Gems
Don’t be too hasty in selling these valuable items. Fuse them into Gems preferably and then sell each Gem for 1000 gold. Alternatively, you can sell them individually in pairs to bag some gold.
Looting Treasure Boxes For Gold Under Water
Whether you like swimming or not, there is plenty of loot waiting for you hidden under water throughout the kingdom. You can spot these treasure boxes by ripples on the surface which will indicate the presence of a treasure box in the depths of water. Dive in and loot it for gold.
Farm Gold With Detect Hidden
Yes, the particular skill is expensive but once you have upgraded, picking those hidden chests will be just like a walk in the park. With Detect Hidden, you can spot these treasure chests easily and that’s what makes gold farming easy even at the start of the game.
First unlock of Detect Hidden earns you more gold as you loot treasure boxes. Second unlock enables you to find hidden treasure boxes and as you spend more points in these skills, it pretty much increases the amount of gold you will earn by looting chests and finding treasure boxes.
The best thing about Detect Hidden skill is, it spots the treasure chests on your mini-map in the areas that you have explored. So as you explore more of the Kingdom, it will help you locate hidden chests and you can follow the directions to loot these chests for gold.
Farm Gold With Respec Exploit
You can exploit Respec if you want to farm Gold to purchase valuable equipment or unique items. You can respec and then invest all your Skill Points in SageCrafting to become a master gem crafter.
You can then combine shards to make powerful gems which you can sell for thousands of Gold. Or you can invest all your Skill Points in Blacksmithing and craft a high-level armor and either use it for yourself or sell it.
Reckoning Infinite Gold Glitch
It’s pretty simple glitch to farm infinite gold. When you are about to sell any equipment piece you have in bulk, but always decrease it by 1 from its total. Like if you have 8 pieces, sell 7 and keep repeating this process to get rich.
