Broke in Tamriel? A Hilarious Guide to Amassing Gold in Elder Scrolls Online (Because Let's Face It, Grinding Ain't Cute)
Ah, gold. The lifeblood of Tamriel, even more important than that fourteenth cheese wheel you just snagged from a goblin camp (seriously, who hoards cheese?). But fear not, fellow adventurer, for your pockets don't have to resemble a particularly sad flute – here's your one-stop guide to becoming ESO's very own Scrooge McDuck (minus the questionable swimming pool of coins).

| How To Get Gold Elder Scrolls Online |
Be a Crafting Casanova (or Womanas):
Tip: Don’t skip — flow matters.
Crafting professions are your ticket to a gold-plated paradise. But forget spending hours hunched over an anvil like a blacksmith with a serious back problem. Focus on daily crafting writs! These quick quests reward you with valuable materials and even rarer gold-tier mats. Just remember to research your traits – no one wants a wobbly sword that spontaneously combusts mid-battle.
But Wait, There's More! Refine those raw crafting materials you get from writs and questing. Poof! You've just conjured up even more gold! Just don't accidentally transmute your pet guar into a pile of shimmering dust – that's a one-way trip to heartbreak hotel.
Tip: Reread the opening if you feel lost.
The Dungeon Delver's Dilemma:
Tip: Share this article if you find it helpful.
Dungeons are a treasure trove of loot, but tread carefully. You might score some epic gear, but selling it can be a gamble. Here's the golden rule: If it's intricate enough to house a miniature civilization, sell it! But if it looks like something your grandma knitted for a particularly grumpy mudcrab, well, vendor trash it is.

The Become-a-Bandit Boogie (But Not Really):
QuickTip: Pause before scrolling further.
While robbing unsuspecting merchants might be tempting (we've all considered it after the tenth repair bill for your perpetually exploding horse), resist the urge! The fines just aren't worth it. Instead, become a treasure hunter! Do some research online (or ask those suspiciously knowledgeable khajiit merchants) to find prime looting spots. Just remember, sharing is caring (especially with your guildies who heroically heal you through every dungeon mishap).
Bonus Tip: Embrace the Inner Hoarder:
Those miscellaneous quest rewards and event tickets lying dormant in your inventory? They're a goldmine waiting to happen! Hold onto them for a bit. Prices fluctuate like a hyperactive guar on skooma, so wait for the right moment to strike it rich. You'll be swimming in gold in no time, Scrooge McDuck style (minus the questionable swimming pool... still a hard no).
There you have it, adventurers! With a little know-how and a dash of entrepreneurial spirit, you'll be rolling in gold like a particularly wealthy cheese wheel. Now go forth, and remember: a rich adventurer is a happy adventurer (and probably has a much nicer cheese selection).
