How to earn gold quickly in Sea of Stars

There are several ways you can earn gold in Sea of Stars, which means, hopefully, you'll be able to save up in no time to get the items you want. Take a look at a few different options below and see how much you can earn from each one:

Fishing

Fishing is a fun and easy way to not only harvest some filets for cooking but also make a few extra gold. Just head to any fishing area you can on the map. They are usually shown as areas with large fish jumping in and out of the water. It's easy to catch multiple fish at a time, meaning you can sell a whole bunch of fillets in one go. Look for an Equipment Store NPC in the fishing area nearby or head to the nearest town to sell them after you catch them.

Sell Items

Selling items is probably one of the most efficient ways to earn gold because certain items, specifically valuables, will get you the most gold at a time. You can sell things at any of the Equipment Store NPCs, which can usually be found at campfire spots or in shops and stalls in the towns.

Valuables are worth the most gold to sell, and you can find them in chests spread around the world, more often in dungeons. You can find them under the Gem icon tab of your items menu or the sell menu.

You'll also want to ensure you are selling unwanted gear and items you don't need anymore. When you equip your character with better armor and weapons, you can sell the old items for a decent amount of gold and clear up more space in your inventory.

Open Chests

Another super easy way to earn quick gold is to open all the chests that you see scattered around the islands. These chests can either carry valuables for you to sell or even just straight-up gold. They can have up to 50+ gold sometimes, so try not to leave any left behind.

Play Wheels

A fun way to earn some extra coins is to try your hand at the game Wheels. This little mini-game can be found in different taverns, and you are first given access to it after arm wrestling with the pirates at the Port Town of Brisk. You can play this casually or in champion mode, and every time you win, you can earn some prize gold.

These are just a few ways you can earn more quickly in Sea of Stars, but also look out for other opportunities that arise as well. You'll need gold on hand to keep purchasing better gear and getting the supplies you need for your adventure.
