Something you'll discover soon as a new Wyvern player is that gold is the main bottleneck in progressing with the game. Experience points and items are generally plentiful, but for most races, training skills are what makes a player stronger. Only Rakshasas and Nagas get stronger as they level.

How to gain gold

There are various ways to make money -

1. gem/gold spawns - many areas in Wyvern spawn gems and gold which can be picked up, ranging from 1gp-500gp in value. 2. monster loot - some monsters drop items that you can loot and subsequently sell to stores/players 3. loot spawns - some areas in Wyvern spawn loot, that can range from Dragonscale mails to bags of vast holding.


Newbie Dungeon

If you're level 1-5, you'll notice all 3 of these instances in the Newbie Dungeon in New Verden (it's a little house near the SE part of town).

1. Rats don't drop anything. Boo 2. There are 4 pieces of armor/weapons that can be picked up or looted from crates or chests, 2 on each side beyond the levers containing rats 3. The 2nd map with zombies have 4 loot spawn locations, whose items can vary from a gem, armor, scroll, wand, weapon, or etc.. 4. The 3rd map (the stairs going down from map with zombies) have goblins that drop axes and shields. You can pick these up and sell them to any shop.

Monsters

With the current loot system, there are only a small subset of monsters that drop good loot that are shop-worthy. Some monsters, like Huge Minotaurs or Armored Titans, have a 1% chance of dropping weapons like Whip of Flames, but the monsters listed below are what most players, even pros, use to make money.
