# How to Make Money

## Early Game

### Entropia Oasis

The most reliable way to make money during the early game is farming in [**Entropia Oasis**.](/guides/how-to-make-money/early-game-entropia-oasis.md)

Before actively farming in the Oasis, you should be strong enough to defeat its monsters with a single attack.

### Platinum Rewards x3 Reset Strategy

During certain weekend events, the [**Platinum Rewards x3 Reset Strategy**](/guides/how-to-set-up-a-platin-cha.md) can provide considerably more income than regular Oasis farming.

However, this method is only available while the corresponding Weekend-event is active.

## Mid Game

Once you enter the mid game, additional money-making methods become available. The best choice depends on your damage, available gathering tools and current market prices.

| Method                   | Recommended For                                       |
| ------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------- |
| **Dread Cove Isle**      | Direct Penya farming with a strong damage dealer      |
| **Mining and Gathering** | New Cardia players with limited damage                |
| **Player Market**        | Selling valuable materials and items to other players |

### Dread Cove Isle

Starting from **Royal Level 10**, you can enter **Dread Cove Isle** through the teleporter.

Dread Cove Isle currently provides the highest Penya reward per monster. However, its monsters have considerably more HP than those in earlier farming zones. Increase your damage as much as possible to defeat them efficiently.

{% hint style="info" %}
Dread Cove Isle is primarily a **single-target farming area**. AoE farming is possible, but it is usually less effective.
{% endhint %}

### Mining and Gathering

When first entering Cardia, you may not have enough damage to farm Royal content efficiently. Mining and gathering provide a strong alternative that does not depend primarily on your combat damage.

Plants and ores collected throughout Cardia can be exchanged for valuable items such as:

* **Rainbow Stone**
* **Eternal Stone**
