Odin: Valhalla Rising Resource Farming Guide
Jul-06-2024 PSTToday, I'll be sharing how I farm resources like Odin diamonds, gold, and other items in the game as a free-to-play player. From what I know so far, there are two primary methods for resource farming. The first is creating a dummy or alternative account to autofarm items that you can sell in the market. The second involves creating multiple characters on the same account to maximize your farming potential. Let's dive into each method in detail.
Method 1: Using Dummy Accounts for Autofarming
Setting Up a Dummy Account
Creating a dummy account is a strategy many MMORPG players are already familiar with. This method involves setting up an alternate account to farm items that can be sold in the market. Once you've accumulated enough diamonds—the in-game currency—you can transfer them to your main account through a process called ghost trading.
Finding Farming Locations
On your dummy account, access the minimap and look for areas that are ideal for farming. Different regions yield different items. For example, I'm farming in a specific area that I've marked with a star because it yields an item used to craft purple or blue weapons and gear. This item is worth 23 diamonds in the market and can be farmed relatively easily—about five of these items per day using a dummy account.
Ghost Trading Explained
Once you have enough diamonds, it's time to transfer them to your main account. Here's how ghost trading works:
1. Market Listing on Main Account: On your main account, find an item you can register in the market. It should be an ordinary item, not rare or expensive. For instance, if an item is worth 10 diamonds, you can list it for an overpriced amount, say 5,000 diamonds.
2. Posting the Item: Register this item in the market. After about 30 minutes, it will be posted and visible in the market.
3. Purchasing with Dummy Account: Switch to your dummy account, find the listed item, and buy it. This process transfers diamonds from your dummy account to your main account.
I've used this method to collect thousands of diamonds. For instance, I sold an item worth 10 diamonds for 1,150 diamonds, bought it with my dummy account, and transferred the diamonds to my main account. With these diamonds, I've purchased valuable packages, including avatars and mounts worth 3,000 diamonds each.
Benefits of Ghost Trading
This method allows free-to-play players to accumulate significant resources without spending real money. By strategically farming and trading, you can acquire high-value items and enhance your gameplay experience.
Method 2: Creating Multiple Characters on One Account
Shared Features Across Characters
Odin: Valhalla Rising offers a unique shared feature where stats, avatars, mounts, resources, and selective items can be shared across multiple characters on the same account. This feature is advantageous for maximizing farming efficiency and resource accumulation.
Codex and Collection Features
The Codex or Collection feature allows you to complete requirements to obtain stats that can be used by all characters on your account, even low-level ones. This shared benefit extends to mounts and avatars, enabling you to equip the best gear across all characters.
Daily Rewards and Achievements
Each character has separate daily rewards and achievements. This means you can complete the same tasks on multiple characters to earn a different set of rewards each time. For example, completing daily quests on three characters yields three times the rewards compared to a single character.
Using the Storage Feature
To transfer items between characters, use the storage feature or vault in town. You can store weapons, resources, and other transferable items and then switch to another character to retrieve them. This allows low-level characters to utilize high-level gear, making it easier to level up and farm items.
Maximizing Dungeon Runs
Each week, you get three free dungeon runs per character. With three characters, that's nine free dungeon runs per account. Elite dungeons offer one hour of free access daily, and raid dungeons provide additional rewards like upgrading materials, gold, and experience points. By creating multiple characters, you can maximize these benefits and accumulate resources faster.
Conclusion
Farming resources as a free-to-play player in Odin: Valhalla Rising can be highly rewarding with the right strategies. Using dummy accounts for autofarming and ghost trading, along with creating multiple characters to maximize shared benefits, allows you to gather Odin: Valhalla Rising diamonds, gold, and valuable items efficiently.
