Managing Miscellania - Make money without doing anything.

[micky.blue.eyes]

I was talking to Dan (-legoman-) one day and he encouraged me to manage Miscellania. Thank you Dan. This is a great way to make money and level your skills without having to do (too) much. I made this guide to share this way of making money with you all. (If you rep me, please rep Dan too.)

Making money, the lazy way.

When you completed Throne of Miscellania you become the regent of Miscellania and people will work for you, if you pay them. Your people will collect resources for you, they will collect ores, fish, herbs and wood for you, they'll also collect hardwood and seeds for you if you've done Royal Trouble.
You got to make your people content with you to make them work better, you can do this by helping them collect resources.

Requirements when you've only completed Thone of Miscellania (one of the following):
- Level 30 Mining and a pickaxe to help Miner Magnus.
- Level 45 Woodcutting and an axe to help Lumberjack Lief.
- Level 10 Farming and a rake to help Gardener Gunnhild.
- Level 40 Fishing and a lobster pot to help Fisherman Frodi.

Requirements when you've completed Royal Trouble aswell (one of the following):
- Level 35 Woodcutting and an axe to help the Etceterian carpenter.
- Level 10 Farming and a rake, a watering can or a bucket of compost to help the Etceterian farmer.
- Or the levels mentioned above.

Managing your kingdom

Now it's time to order your servants to collect resources, do this by speaking to Advisor Ghrim who can be found in King Vargas's throne room in the Miscellanian palace. Talk to him and select the "'How is the Kingdom faring" option. He'll tell you how content the people are. Then he'll ask you if you want the resources collected by the servants. After this he'll bring up the control panel, you can now control what the servants have to collect. You can now deposit or withdraw money to pay the servants. I advice you to put 900k in the chest if you've done both the quests, it takes out 10% of the cash a day, maximum 75k, so 900k should give you 3 days to do nothing. Put in 600k if you've only done Throne of Mischellania, it'll take out 50k a day. You can have a maximum of 5m in the chest, 7.5m if you've done Royal Trouble.

Keeping your people happy.

Now it's time to satisfy your people, go outside and help them collect resources, you'll get a very small amount of xp for those skills, untill you reach 100%. The people will tell you when you reached 100%, they'll tell you that you've done enough. Normally it should only take a few logs to get 100% again.

The resources.

The resources your servants will get are:
- Teak logs
- Mahogany logs
- Maple logs
- Herbs
- Coal
- Cooked or uncooked fish
- Herb Seeds
You will also get birdnests dropped from trees, this is a great way to get tree seeds.

Collecting your resources.

When you've waited for at least 1 day you can go back to collect the resources. I wanted the servants to get maple logs, herbs and teak logs, this is what I got after 1 day:


Have fun making money the lazy way.

Depends what you want them to collect and what you're going to use yourself.

In 2 days I got about 40 Unids, 300 teak logs and 890 maple logs, calculate and find out.

about 200k so 100k a day unless you id herbs and get good herbs or even if you turn the teak into planks it wud be more like 250-300k every 2 days still pretty good for doing nothing
