Easy ways to make money for kids

As soon as you complete the Trader Escort mission you can visit Grey Manor near Barrow Fields, the way is closed to you if you try before then. I would recommend doing it early in the game, before you defeat the Arena and take the Lady Grey quest. The overall strategy is to use the two Zombie Generals at Grey Manor to create an infinite supply of zombie footsoldiers. If you leave a General to his own devices he’ll spawn (randomly) 3 or 4 soldiers that will freely attack you. If you destroy one it’s automatically replaced by another, luckily.

Before Going In:
1. Build up your Physical Shield spell, preferably to level 3
2. Increasing your ranged skills will help as well, though you can compensate for this with a silver augmentation if you wish (Zombies are weak to it)
3. Make sure you have a base supply of at least 10 mana potions
4. Try to make sure you’ve maxed out all the evil spells like Turncoat, Drain Life, and Berserk, IT WILL BE HARD TO TURN EVIL AGAIN AFTERWARDS.

The two Zombie Generals are separated at first, so kill the lieutenants and other minions around the first general and get close enough so he’ll lock onto you. DO NOT KILL THE GENERAL, otherwise you’re screwed. Lead him (slowly) over to the other general inbetween the two ponds in front of the demon door. Kill the others around him so it’s just the two Generals. There might be a minute or two of akward staring and standing around but they will eventually start to spawn guys, and once they do they don’t freaking stop.

Draw your bow and kill the newly spawned zombies as they appear, there should be about 8 of them, and again, they reappear once killed. I use archery because it tends to keep them at a distance and I can filter out the ones that are closer to me and about to attack. Plus if you go swinging your melee weapon around in a group you might hit the Generals and kill them, which again is BAD

During The Fight:
1. MOVE, standing still is death so strafe back and forth a bit to make them work to get a hit in. I would also recommend actually holding most of the fight in one of the ponds. I can’t really prove this but it feels like it makes them a little slower.
2. Search the ground for dropped gold and, more importantly, mana potions. If you run out of mana potions then you won’t be able to keep your shields up for long. If you started with 10 potions and actively scour the area then you should easily have 40 or more when you’re done. A smaller benefit to is when they drop gold, you can easily make a few thousand off of their undead pocket change.
3. If you do get surrounded then you can hack n’ slash with your melee weapon, but again make special care not to hit the Generals.

As long as you’re not hit you can raise your combat multiplier indefinitely. I usually get to about 300 before my hand starts to cramp up. Also, with a 300 combat multiplier you max out EXP in both the general and skill fields in a relatively short period of time. Once you’ve had your fill of zombie massacre, destroy the Zombie Generals with smug satisfaction.

It’s taxing, tiring, and boringly repetitive at times, but if you can put up with it for a half hour you’ll have an awesome character for the rest of the game. And if you went in with horns you’re probably going to come out of the Manor with a halo, as you turned good with each killed zombie. Most will be satisfied with just that, but if you’re a freak like me and want to exploit every angle then there’s a few other things after you can do as well when you’re Multiplier is this high.

1. Use all of your “Ages of _______ Potions” There will never be a better time to do so.
2. Activate and then deactivate the Physical Shield spell and then recharge with some of the excess mana potions if you feel a bit loaded down by them all.
3. If you haven’t opened the demon door in front of the Hobbe Cave in the Greatwood realm of the game you can easily do so now. It needs a Multiplier of 15 or 20 to open. Teleport from the Manor to the Greatwood Cullis Gate and go to the As soon as you complete the Trader Escort mission you can visit Grey Manor near Barrow Fields, the way is closed to you if you try before then.

I’ve always loved this game and wanted to share some of the parts that made it enjoyable for me. I hope it works well for anyone who chooses to use them.
