Money, Auctions & Shops

EssentialsX + Vault money, GlobalMarketplace auction, QuickShop chest shops, daily streaks.

01 The Economy Stack

AoW runs a single shared currency backed by Vault, with EssentialsX handling your wallet and transfers. On top of that sit two ways to trade: a server-wide auction house for listing anything to everyone, and player-owned chest shops for always-on storefronts.

How the pieces fit together
๐Ÿ’ฐ
Your Wallet

EssentialsX stores your balance; Vault lets every plugin read and charge it consistently.

๐Ÿชง
Auction House /ah

List an item once and any online player can buy it from the global GUI โ€” no booth needed.

๐Ÿงฐ
Chest Shops

QuickShop turns a chest into a 24/7 storefront that sells (or buys) even while you sleep.

Crossplay note: Bedrock players keep the same balance and the same shops as Java players โ€” the economy is fully shared. Remember Bedrock usernames carry a leading . prefix in commands.

02 Money: Balance & Pay

Everything money-related runs through EssentialsX. Check what you have, see who's rich, and send funds to a friend in seconds.

CommandWhat it does
/balance /balShow your current balance.
/balance <player>Check another player's balance.
/pay <player> <amount>Send money to another player.
/baltopLeaderboard of the richest players.
Examples
# Check your wallet
/bal

# Pay a Java player 500
/pay Steve 500

# Pay a Bedrock player (note the leading dot)
/pay .BedrockBob 500
Tip: Always double-check the name before you /pay โ€” transfers are instant and there's no undo. Bedrock targets need the . prefix or the payment won't find them.

03 The Auction House /ah

Powered by AuctionHouse GlobalMarketplace 2.1, the auction house is the fastest way to move goods. List an item from your hand and it's instantly visible to every player on the server through one shared GUI.

CommandWhat it does
/ahOpen the global auction browser.
/ah sell <price>List the item in your hand for the given price.
/ah search <text>Filter the listings by item name.
/ah expiredReclaim unsold items that timed out.
Selling in three steps
โ‘ 
Hold the item

Put the stack you want to sell in your main hand.

โ‘ก
Set a price

Run /ah sell 2500 to list it for that amount.

โ‘ข
Get paid

When a buyer clicks it in /ah, the money lands in your wallet automatically.

# List the item in your hand for 2,500
/ah sell 2500

# Browse everything for sale
/ah

# Find diamonds quickly
/ah search diamond
Heads up: Listings expire if nobody buys them. Use /ah expired to pull unsold items back into your inventory instead of losing them.

04 Chest Shops QuickShop

QuickShop-Hikari 6.2 lets you build permanent storefronts at your base or in a market district. A shop keeps trading even when you're offline โ€” perfect for passive income.

Create a shop, step by step
StepAction
1. Place a chestSet down a single or double chest where you want the shop.
2. Stock itPut the item you want to sell inside the chest.
3. Hit it with the itemHold a copy of that item and left-click the chest to open the shop prompt.
4. Type a priceEnter the price in chat when asked, e.g. 64.
5. DoneA sign appears showing the item, price, and remaining stock. It's live.
Managing your shop
Selling shop

You sell items to players. Keep the chest stocked; money flows to you on each sale.

Buying shop

Toggle the shop to buy mode so it purchases items from players into your chest.

Restock anytime

Just open the chest and add more. The sign updates the stock count automatically.

Remove a shop

Break the chest (or the sign) to close the shop and reclaim your goods.

Protect your shop: Build inside a GriefPrevention claim so nobody can break your chest or sign. See the Claims page for golden-shovel basics.
Auction vs. chest shop? Use /ah for one-off or rare items you want gone fast. Use QuickShop for bulk staples โ€” cobble, food, ores โ€” that you want selling around the clock.

05 Daily Login Streak /daily

Log in and run /daily to claim your reward. Come back day after day and your streak grows โ€” the longer the chain, the better the payout.

CommandWhat it does
/dailyClaim today's reward and advance your login streak.
Keep the chain alive: Miss a day and your streak resets to the start. A quick login every day keeps the rewards climbing.
Stack your dailies: Pair /daily with /top leaderboards and AuraSkills progress for a quick daily routine that pays off over time.

06 Loot Feeds the Market

The economy isn't just farming and trading โ€” the Fractured Veil champion system pumps rare goods into the market. Titled mobs drop tier-scaled loot, and the best of it becomes serious currency.

Relics

Title-themed cores dropped by Champion-tier and higher mobs โ€” coveted, tradeable trophies.

Veilweaver Glyphs

Combat enchant tomes from elites (Void Rift, Rust Corrosion, Grudge Echo, Worldbreaker). Rare and in demand.

Enriched drops

Champions with the Enriched sub-title drop double loot โ€” a kill genuinely worth selling.

Vendetta Shards

Survive long enough to be hunted, kill your stalker, and pocket a Vendetta Shard for the trade table.

Read the full drop tables on the Relics & Loot page, and learn how tiers scale on Tiers & Sub-Titles.

07 How to Make Money

There's no single right way to get rich โ€” pick the loop that fits how you like to play.

โš”
Hunt champions

Farm titled mobs at night and far from spawn for relics, glyphs, and rare loot to list on /ah.

๐Ÿช
Run a chest shop

Set up a QuickShop for staples and earn passively while you're offline.

โ›
Mine & sell bulk

the ore-vein module in AoWWorldGen means bigger ore veins โ€” flip the surplus through the auction house.

๐ŸŒพ
Farm & supply

Food and crops always sell. Keep a buying shop stocked with what other players need.

๐Ÿ“…
Claim daily

Never skip /daily โ€” a long streak is free money for almost no effort.

๐Ÿ”จ
Craft & resell

Buy raw mats cheap on /ah, craft into gear or tools, and sell the finished goods at a markup.

Best beginner loop: mine a bit, sell the overflow on /ah, set up a small chest shop near spawn, and claim /daily every login. Reinvest into better gear, then graduate to champion hunting for the big drops.
