I'm not asking for any gold. I just want good ways for earning it since I seem to be using it up on restoring my Sylesties. I'm new so I could use some suggestions. I've read the guides but I would like user tips.

EDIT: Just noticed the edit button.... sorry for this post :/

Missions, missions, missions. All missions all the time. As many as you can get out of the Exceptional variety (orange missions).

Supplemental to that is selling equipment, at least for me.

Then you can occasionally sell extra avatar items.

But mostly missions.

Do the missions reset & if so, how often? I've only done a couple of missions but the lists seem to differ from time to time.

Missions refresh and cycle through every top of the hour. c:
(ie 5pm, 6pm, 7pm, etc)

Each level tier (easy, medium, hard, and very hard) has 5 different missions, one that utilizes each stat. Which is why it's good to have a team of 5 mission pets, each for a different single stat.

I did read about a 'mission team'. I already have Strength, Health, & Intelligence. Working on Dexterity & Agility. Regardless, I'm having fun. I like these kinds of in-depth breeding sites over the 'breed two get new' kinds of sites.
