# Earning Money

There are several ways to earn money on the server.

## **Quests**

Quests tend to give the best money rewards per time invested, especially if you pick quests that line up with what you're already doing. Open `/quests` and check what's available. Event quests during limited-time events can also offer good payouts, so don't ignore those.

## **Jobs**

Join a job with `/jobs` to passively earn money from regular activities like mining, farming, or killing. The more you level your job, the more you earn per action. It won't make you rich overnight but it adds up steadily in the background while you play normally.

## **PyroMining**

Just mine ores and you'll start collecting custom drops, fluxes, gemstones, and mysterious dust. These can all be sold at `/mine shop`. Fluxes are straightforward sells with no other use. Gemstones can be right-clicked to try and increase their value before selling, though there's a risk of lowering it too, so it's up to you whether to gamble.

## **PyroFarming**

PyroFarming is one of the more passive income sources on the server. You set up **growstations** (crafted planters that grow custom plants) and **bushes** (placeable blocks that slowly produce sellable items over time). Once placed, bushes grow on their own when you're online. Harvest and sell your crops in `/farm shop`. The initial cost of bushes is high, but they pay off in the long run since they need very little effort to maintain.

## **Player Shops**

You can set up a chest shop to sell items to other players automatically, even while you're offline. Place a chest, hold the item you want to sell, and right-click the chest to set it up and enter a price. To find other player shops, use `/finditem TO_SELL <item>`. This is a good way to sell bulk materials like ores, wood, or food.

## **Auction House**

List items for sale using `/ah sell <price>`. Other players browsing `/ah` can buy from you at any time. Good for selling rarer or more valuable items where you can set your own price. Check `/ah expired` if listings don't sell, items sit there waiting to be reclaimed rather than disappearing.

## **Voting**

Voting for the server gives you common crate keys which can contain money rewards among other things. It only takes a few minutes and can be done daily, so it's worth doing consistently even if the rewards aren't huge. Check `/vote` for the links.

## **Tips**

* Quests + a job running in the background is the most efficient combo for most players starting out.
* Set up PyroFarming bushes early, even a small setup earns passively over time.
