Weggy's Economy Guide to Ragnarok Online Version 1.0 =============================================================================== Table Of Contents =============================================================================== I. Why an economy guide? II. About Ragnarok Online III. Items IV. Weapons/Armor V. ETC VI. Things that probably are not in the beta (yet) VII. Contact VIII. Thanks IX. Un-legal =============================================================================== Why an economy guide? =============================================================================== Well, I'm tired of wanting to find out how much something costs when I want to sell it on the street, I'm sure you all are as well. So, I've created this guide to help people out when trying to sell something. Also note, if the item is not listed here, it is just a normal item. So sell it back to an NPC, or an OC merchant if possible. Also, I wrote this guide in 800x600 resolution, normal font size. If it looks odd to you, adjust your screen accordingly. And please! Prices fluctuate often, if you see a price that I'm way off on, or if you know what I can fill in the ????'s, please e-mail me. =============================================================================== About Ragnarok Online =============================================================================== Ragnarok Online is a MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer RPG) made by Korean company Gravity based on the Ragnarok Manga by Lee-Myon Jin. It is a rather lengthy download for dial-up users, but should not be too long for Broadband users. Theres also a LOT of patches that have been released. At the time of writing the game has had 80 patches. No, I didn't type that wrong. 80. They are all relatively small, and install very quickly (just overwrite the files) so it's not a big deal. After downloading the client from http://www.ragnarokonline.com, go get the patches. I find the best 2 sites are http://www.ro.pak0.com/ and http://www.gamingfrontier.com. Also, if your on dial-up, this game can be a painful experience. If your on a 56k modem, you should be able to handle it. If your on anything less, you might as well not bother. This game is a bandwidth hog. =============================================================================== Items =============================================================================== Name ------------ Street Price -- NPC Price -- Comments --------------------- White Herb 10z 2z Not really worth your time Yellow Herb 10z 2z Not really worth your time Leaf of Hinalle 400z 1z These sell decently Leaf of Aloe 400z 1z Again, a decent seller Candy 500z 5z Some people sell very high Candy Striper 500-1000z 10z Some people sell very high Blue Potion 5000z 2500z Dropped from Doppleganger Blue Herb 200z 2z One of few SP restoring items Grape 200z 5z One of few SP restoring items Honey 400z 250z Nice, because it restores SP Royal Jelly ???? 1750z You should probably sell to NPC Amulet ???? 50z I've never seen one for sale Anodyne ???? 500z You should probably sell to NPC Branch Dead Tree 1250z 1z These are not working yet Leaf of Yggdrasil 2000z 1500z Not worth your time-sell to NPC Old Blue Box 5000z 1z These are not working yet =============================================================================== Weapons/Armor =============================================================================== The only Equipment listed are those which can be picked up, so thus sold for less.

This includes the Gems and Yellow Gemstones. However, some are rare, and can be sold for some money. Most of them are the ones that can be sold for only 1z each.

When this is actually enabled, the prices of these cards may fluctuate greatly depending on their use. For now though, the general rule is that the harder the enemy is, the more their card sells for.
