# Crypto Dynasty is a RPG and PvP DApp game which allow players to play-to-earn ETH cryptocurrency.
After a week of game playing and exploration, I managed to earn 0.003 ETH with zero investment (_It may not seem like a lot, but it is a start_). Below I will outline some tips and explain some of the strategies used to earn ETH in the marketplace through trading with other players. (_Beginner version_)

### Here are a few things to look out for in the marketplace:
**1 - Materials on sale that are more than the minimum price**
- **Minimum price:**
0.00001 ETH for Normal (white) material
0.00005 ETH for Rare (green) material
0.00025 ETH for Master (blue) material
You can list your item's price below the cheapest item on sale for quick sale or reasonably higher price (_may take longer to sell_)

**2 - Equipment with higher level with lower than market price or close to minimum price**
For instance, I purchased a _Flower Robe_ for 0.00005 ETH

But it is a **level 5 item**

As at the current market price, for such level is from 0.00008 ETH. Hence, I can resell it for a higher price than I originally bought to earn profit.

**3 - Equipment with lower level but higher quantity**

- As shown the Bloodthirsty Calabash is only level 1 but has a total number of 8 which you can upgrade yourself using Tiger Runes to make the equipment higher level thus higher stats and of higher value.
- However, taking note the percentage of the equipment - only 51%. This is not worth upgrading unless you have an identical equipment with a higher percentage. Otherwise, it will be a waste of Tiger Runes as it needs to be upgraded over again at a later stage to maximize the stats.
- If you have another identical one with higher percentage: select the one with higher percentage -> click synthesis -> select the one with higher quantity There you go - you now have a Bloodthirsty Calabash with higher percentage and higher quantity which can be sold at a much higher price in comparison to the lower percentage.
**1003908678** is the referral number to get the **1000 Tiger Runes bonus** :)
**4 - Equipment with higher percentage but lower level**
These can be highly sought after especially equipment with **90-100%** by some people wanting to upgrade their equipment as explained earlier. They can usually be sold at a much higher price. Grab them at a cheaper price and resell them to earn.
**5 - Be ready for quest time (Forging Task) as materials and equipment prices can be doubled or more**
Quest (Forging Task) opens at 08.00am (UTC) every Wednesday. Tasks usually last for 24 hours where players compete on the number of the specified equipment submitted for reward.
Look out for materials required to forge the quest item. For instance one of the item this week was Bright Silver Armor.

During quest time, the prices for these two materials (_Goshawk Wing and Ruby_) were soaring. It went from respectively ~0.00037 ETH to ~0.001 ETH and 0.00001 ETH to 0.0004 ETH!

## Tips:
- Normal materials are more in demand than Normal equipment, but Rare equipment or upwards can be high in demand depending on several factors such as stats, level, percentage, quantity.
- Constantly refresh to check for latest equipment on sale (grab a bargain)
- Constantly check marketplace to see what others are selling and the current price
- Check to see what's trending and keep those materials obtained during march and either sell material directly or forge equipment and sell
- Prioritize items that are faster selling so you can clear up space to sell more items (new players start off with basic private rank with only 2 available selling slots each for material and equipment (4 in total) - so use it wisely!)
- To check if an item selling well: select the specific item (material/equipment) -> note down the name of first row/first few sellers and the total number on sale for this specific item (All - next to the refresh button) and see if it changes after awhile - which could indicate if items are fast selling or not.
## **Here are some items that are currently higher in demand (Personal opinion):**
### **Materials:**
- **Normal:**
*Ruby, Cloth, Cotton, Pearl, Boar leather, Purified steel*
