Money making guide/Combined (F2P)

This article is about the free-to-play guide. For the members guide, see Money making guide/Combined (P2P).

By combining different skills, you can gain a considerable sum of both money and experience, rather than too much money and too little experience (or the other way around). Most of these methods do cost a large sum of base funds, and these methods may not be as effective as power levelling or strict money making methods.
