In the '''computer ports''', travel <u>on foot</u> across Sosaria. If you board a ship or ride horses, enemy encounter rate drops, therefore the gold you earn from battles will barely cover food expenses.

Vice versa, in the '''NES port''', traveling <u>on horses and ship</u> is more convenient. First of all, enemy encounter rate is not lowered; second, horses give a speed advantage over enemies (you can select who to fight and who to avoid); third, fighting from a ship gives a terrain advantage. On top of all, in the NES port the party can board a ship while horse-mounted, thus getting all the advantages at the same time.

You can accumulate gold pretty quickly from the armory in the town of Death Gulch. Still, this can only be done by an advanced party: you will likely battle many powerful guards, and you will need a Mark found at the bottom of some dungeons.
