Just like most MMO games, money is at the heart of the Star Wars: The Old Republic gaming experience. Craft materials, gear upgrades, repairs and travel aren't free, unfortunately. Without adequate funds, it's hard to progress or fully enjoy all that the game has to offer. It becomes especially important during the leveling process as you will obtaining new gear quite often and gaining new skills. In the SWTOR galaxy, income comes in the form of credits and you're going to need a lot of them.
Earning credits can be a tedious chore, but I'm going to give you five simple SWTOR tips to help you on your way. Before you know it, you'll have a nice cushion of savings to get you all the items you will need and thus enjoy your gaming experience all the more.
Make Use of Those Gathering Skills: Gathering skills are by and large the most profitable of the SWTOR skills. This is true for most MMO games and role playing games in general. This skill requires players to gather certain materials that are typically used for crafting items. Most crafting skills are highly unprofitable and are only useful for high level players. Nevertheless, these items are always in high demand. Make it a point to gather items as often as possible. Your companions can also do some harvesting for you, but most people find it easier to just do it themselves. As far as skill types go, there are four in this game: Slicing, Archaeology, Scavenging and Bioanalysis. Slicing gives the player access to secure computer systems and the ability to open lockboxes. Archaeology is the gathering of ancient artifacts and imbued items like Lightsaber Crystals. Scavenging is the skill that allows players to gather materials from dilapidated or old technology. Bioanalyis is the gathering of genetic materials from plants and creatures. Of all the skills, Slicing is considered the most profitable, but if this isn't your cup of tea, you can always make use of the others. Once materials are gathered, they should be put on the GTN, or Galactic Trade Network, so other players may purchase them.
Pick Up All Loot: Looting every single thing that drops will help increase your pile of credits. All items - even junk - have value. Pick up as much as you can and have your companions go off and sell the items. Your companions will actually make more money selling the items than you would.
Finish All Daily Space Missions: Daily space missions will also make you a good amount of credits. If you are diligent about completing them everyday, you can easily accumulate a nice cushion of credits in just a week.
Join Warzones: Warzones, a series of PVP games, can also earn players credits. Not only are they fun, but profitable too! On top of the credits earned, you will also receive experience points, commendations and valor.
Evaluate Your Server's Economy: Check out your local GTN and see what's lacking. Most of the time you'll be able to pick up on these things while leveling because you'll need them yourself. Once you've found some things that your server is lacking, you can in turn become the supplier with your current character, or a secondary (alternate) one.
Implementing these five easy steps into your daily gaming routine should ensure you have the credits for whatever you may need. Learning to leverage the GTN to your advantage can bring you unlimited amounts of credits. Find what works for you and have fun with it. Happy hunting!
