Economy

Because TMW is smaller and more personal than many other MMORPGs, the structure of the economy is slightly different. For one thing, player-to-player trading is more difficult. Also, it is less effective to "buy" prestige through rare items.

Profitable to sell to shops

• Bat wing - 100gp
• Bat teeth - 150gp
• Root - 200gp
• Cloth - 250 (?) gp
• Dagger - 500gp
• Pearl - 3000gp

Killing bats is an easy way to make money, as they drop wings (30%), teeth (20%), and daggers (0.7%). They also drop slime (8%) and bug legs (4%), both of which are magic supplies. Combined with the relative ease of killing them, bats are the perfect way for newbies (and experienced players) to make money.

Other good targets are Fire Goblins, squirrels, log heads, and spiky mushrooms.

Profitable to trade with other players

• Herbs
• Magic ingredients - ashes, iron powder, sulphur, raw logs
