2. How do I make money on game?
Introduction
Money making is the most relevant way to getting anywhere in-game. Such as getting gear, food, potions, skilling materials, basically anything that will advance you to the next stage of the game. There are many ways to make cash reliably and dangerously but both do come out with there own type of rewards. This guide will show you exactly how to do that.
Donating
Donating is one of the easiest ways of becoming a wealthy Grindescape player. You may visit the store for Premium Points and buy items from the Premium Point store in-game. For more information about Premium Points go here. To use the store to grinderscape you will need a PayPal account that is linked to a credit or debit card. Once that is done, head over to this page, from which you can choose how many Premium Points or which status you wish to buy, and simply follow the directions given on the page.

Dicing
Dicing here at Grinderscape is a form of gambling. It can earn you huge sums of money in an instance, but it is also just as easy to loose all of your money in an instance. So as you can see, dicing is a very risky way of making money.
- If you'd like to learn more about dicing, click here.

Staking
Staking, like dicing, is a form of gambling, in which you stake an opponent an amount of in-game items or money in a duel. Because the outcome of the stake is never 100% certain, this is also a risky method of earning money. Not only risky, this method is also dangerous. Your opponent could betray you and cheating in the duel by, for example, pulling out and using a weapon made illegal to use during the stake beforehand, or by exploiting some kind of bug, that gives him/her an advantage over you. If this does happen, and you have proof of it happening, report it on the Grinderscape Discord.
Merchanting
Merchanting, or merching, is when you buy items for a price, and then sell it for a higher one than what you bought it for. Merching items can be very lucrative, but is also pretty risky. For example, people might not want to buy the item for how much you want for it, or the item you have might have dropped in price, leaving you at a loss. To merch you will also need some kind of a bank with which to buy the items you flip; so if you don't have enough money to start out with, look at some of the other methods above.
Examples
| Item | Price | Buying Price | Selling Price | Profit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 |
10M | 7M | 15M | 8M |
 |
250M | 200M | 300M | 100M |
   |
12b | 12b | 14b | 2B |
Pking
Pking, or Player Killing, is when you, as the name entails, is when you kill other Grinderscape players in the wilderness for their armor, weapons, and anything else they were carrying. This, once more, is very dangerous, so make sure you are ready to possibly loose your itemsif you do happen to be defeated in a fight. Pking can make you very wealthy, so if you are willing to risk the items, go for it.
For info on locations to PK at, click here.
Skilling
Skilling is one of the best ways to start off your adventure to riches on Grinderscape. While training a skill you will be rewarded with coins. The amount of coins that you receive vary depending on the level required for what you are doing. For example to steal from a Bakers stall it requires level 1 in Thieving. Thieving as other skills is a very good way to make a quick few million coins to buy your supplies so that you can use the other money making methods above. You can also train other skills such as woodcutting and mining, and sell the logs and ores you receive from it. You can click here to see guide on the skills trainable on Grinderscape.
PVMing
PVM, in other words mean 'Player VS Monsters.' People in-game usually kill NPC's for items. For example, you kill Dragons just for their bones. There's a lot of monsters you can kill to gain money. Doing Slayer, is one of the best money making process in PVMing. You get money after you finish your slayer task, it involves killing an assigned NPC. There are a lot of monsters that drop good items, click here to find out what they drop.
Slaying
A good way to start out leveling your stats would be to choose slayer! With a large amount of things to slay on GS, it will also drop many items which you could sell to start out with some fast/easy cash! You can get a slaying guide click here.
