What means Goldmaking in ESO?

Goldmaking describes some ingame activities like farming, crafting and trading if its your goal to make some gold (virtual currency in ESO).

Whats the purpose of gold in The Elder Scrolls Online

Gold is the common currency in ESO. It’s used to buy and repair some basic gear, upgrade your inventory or bank slots, or to trade something with other players. But there are many other ways to spend your gold.

How can you earn gold in ESO?

There are plenty of ways to make gold in ESO. Just to name a few: you can farm valuable materials or rare items like furnishing plans and sell them to other players, or you can craft gear and list it for a profit.

But those are just two options among many. Whether you’re a gatherer, trader, crafter, or dungeon diver – Tamriel offers goldmaking paths for every playstyle.

Can I earn gold just by playing the game?

Yes you can. Common sources of gold are quests and hostile mobs. You won’t become the richest player on your server, but you’ll get enough gold for a casual playstyle in ESO if you simply play the game. If you want to buy a house, expensive furnishings, recipes or gear – you might need to take a look in our Goldmaking Guides.

Do I need to grind to make gold?

No, not at all. You can spend a lot of time making gold in ESO, but you definitely don’t have to. If you’re patient and consistent, you can earn a solid amount of gold by investing just 15 minutes a day – for example, by doing your daily crafting writs.
