Rift Economy

[crowdx]

Hi all,
so I have been playing Rift since launch and have just moved to a new server (Deepwood) and I am wondering how everyone is feeling about the economy? What is making the most consistent platinum etc? I am mainly single boxing at present with a lvl 50 Outfitter who is also a butcher and alchemist (really low level in Alchemy).
Any ideas on getting income rolling?

Multibox?

nope, I have a team at level 25 but have shelved them at present

Mining has definitely been pretty easy, though I think the best source (from what I've read) is expert rifts.

For me, selling artifacts has been good.

If there are none of the same type I want to sell I'll put mine up for 1 - 3, sometimes 2- 5 and they will sell.
Blue artifacts, again if there are none currently up I can sell for 10+ plat.

I have sold 2 x Tidal Fangs for 10 & 15 plat.

Also, mats sell very well at least on Alsbeth Guardian side.

My team is sitting in the low - mid 40s as I haven't had much time to play other than my AH alt.

what i do with my group of 50 is do crafting rifts x5 the rewards per rift and if i get a raid together with other people i can get up to 20 rifts x5 rewards. then sell the mats i got. normaly in a raid of 20 lures i get 200 planar essences and about 75-100 minor catalysts among tons of crafting mats and tons of augments. on my server planar essences are going for 5p each and minor catalysts 6-8p each.

This is going to be my plan as well, assuming I can hit the magically 50 mark at some point

Heh...no kidding. I got to 47 on my bards before I realized I was missing something in my cleric builds and started leveling them again. But I'm an altoholic at heart so this is nothing new.

Yeah, i know that feeling all too well.

I have another team ( warrior, cleric, 3 mages ) that i have leveled to 10 or so but have forced myself to leave alone for now.

My buddy has been 50 for sometime ( single boxing ) and is getting impatient waiting, my sister who started weeks after I did is 47 maybe 48 by now.

My warrior dinged 45 last night and the rest are at 43, close to 44 so I can see the end.

So resurrecting this thread for additional input.
My team is now 50 and I am struggling to make decent platinum. I have 3 miners with the Tempered Orichilum and a Tailor with the Witchweave transmute. The issue with these are it takes 8.5 platinum per character to create an item worth 11 - 12 plat.
What would be a fast way to generate platinum on a daily basis? I do the Stillmoor dailies which generate about 2 plat per character but other than that I am failing to get a decent plat stream going.

Any ideas?
