Outside of  auction house, or freebies, whats the best/quickest way to get plat...if there is one?

Anything usable quest-wise or whatnot that gives a ton or anything?

Dupe and sell to the barkeep.

Barring that, there's no real secret. Loot and sell.

You can also sell to pawnbrokers for a higher price than barkeeps will pay - not huge but it adds up. I think it's Ataraxia that has the multi-level pawnbroker so you don't have to run around to a bunch of different places to sell. Mostly I sell to barkeeps because I can make more running quests faster than I can running to a pawnbroker, so I could be wrong about Ataraxia. Eveningstar also has brokers with a wide level range.

Also, grab a Haggle item and a Charisma item and wear them when you sell, you'll get more.
  

Turdbin, keep changing the DDO rules, because McDonalds sold over 200 billion hamburgers by changing the recipe for their Special Sauce every couple of months to keep interest up.

Start with a caster. Mem Teleport. Teleport to kundarak bank, go outside and jump down to von 2. run inside and loot the chests in the maze. Teleport to the bank. Repeat till your inventory is full then teleport to the portable hole, sell to the bartender. Repeat until you have enough plat to get whatever shit you think you need.

Or just post your server, toon name, and fucking wait by a mailbox. Warning, this may result in a mailbox filled with 1 khyber shard letters, so use at your own risk.
  

Fuck Off, That is all

Why not AH?  If you know what you're doing, you can make a million plat in about half an hour, and be running quests the whole time.*

Dupe and sell was the quickest.  got me 40million or something.  10+ toons plat capped

now, just run quests, pass to hagglebot (a PDK you can roll in 15 mins can have 80+ haggle trivially)

JuJus used to give a lot of ML 28 loot that sold to ES pawnbrokers well.  Now you'll have to beat them down, which just doesn't make it worth it.

So I'd go with whatever quest has lots of orange champs that will drop lvl 30+ chests in a short amount of time and is fairly close to a pawnbroker so you don't have to run far to offload junk.

Does anyone buy anything?

sure.  in my experience (~10 lives)  lowbie stuff sells well on AH (up to level 11 - +6 items) for base price. Duped shit like bypasses or jeweler toolkits sell probably OK as well - I buy some whenever I hit plat cap.

On ASAH, I manage to sell occasionally:
* items with 2 slots
* weapons from special materials
* clickies

I'm pretty sure - could be wrong, but pretty sure the duping is gone and if it isnt,im out of the loop, so looking to do it legit.

Doesnt work too well on Ghallandra - too many people posting things for next to nothing.  I can do ok on shard auction, but the plat one is damn near hopeless to flip on except for chump change.

TY all for the ideas though.  I have to do something, as Im really sick of being broke 24/7.  Hope these ideas work. XD

Haunted halls netted me half a mil plat in one run. Granted the run took a while, but it was my first time through it. The majority of the loot appeared in a room after killing champs, probably could zerg to the room and loot then do it all over again for massive income.

Depending on your character's DPS this may be inefficient, I'm guessing? Given the price difference between L30 loot and L22 loot is not all that much, aren't you better off in a fast, EN quest with a lot of chests?

(Question, not statement. Not sure, just musing.)

Rolling a hagglebot is legit. Roll a char if you have a slot, max out Haggle and CHA over everything else, take SF: Haggle, etc. and you'll make a decent difference just passing vendor trash to that toon via the bank to sell. Think that's what they meant, no exploits needed.

I played for about four years and didn't have one, never regularly plat capped. After I rolled a hagglebard on a 2nd account I never needed to worry about plat again. I was lazy too; I only passed about 40-60% of my loot that way.

Im playing legit, so dont care if Turdbine knows me or not, so I will try these things, but if anyone on ghallanda wants to toss me a bone or million (lol), send me a mail - I wont be unappreciative if I ever get the chance to repay you:

pm me for character to send to

Otherwise, will do as suggested and hope for best. Thanks!

Selling shit is easy, it's buying that's hard.  There's no pool of stuff.

Weird.  I find G to be one of the easier servers to flip on.  Can usually make 100k before I'm done checking mail.

Spam general chat in Harbor and Marketplace begging for plat.

Also spam everybody on the WHO list begging for plat.

That works every time.

Oh yeah and join nearly full PUGs for any quest and beg them for plat also.

EDIT: Also, post an LFM level 1-28 begging for plat (in exchange for sexual favors)

EDIT2: Join your server's biggest fail guild of retards and beg them for plat as well.

What sells for shards damn sure sells for plat as well.
If nothing else, it will get bought only to resell on asah heh.
I instantly buy anything useful for plat.
People often don't even loot chests except renown.

Fastest ? I guess offer valuable items for plat ( 3+ tomes, 3 stat optics, HH stuff, insight stat, 2 DC, heal, repair, jump augments, 3bc stuff, dragon helms, backstabbers, 7 ideals, amenities, consum darkness, ioun stones, jorgy collar, shadowsight, planar gird, royal guard mask ).
Offer Eidolons or 3 int optics or tiefling dagger or heart or 4 - 5 tome for plat.
Ransack extended HH one day.
