After going to Oakvale for your first time, before you do the Bandit King quest, return to the Ancient Cullis Gate. The area with the white circle is a location where the Ground Troll spawns. To trigger this spawn, go to the bridge then walk back to the circle. The troll will respond every time you do this. You can only fight one at a time. After you kill the troll, go back to the bridge and walk to the circle again. The red enemy on your mini-map is where the ground troll will appear from the ground. You can get an easy Combat-multiplier and rubies which can be sold for a lot at the Darkwood Camp and the Oakvale store.
This trick only works if you can get people to follow you. Go to Oakvale and get everyone in the town to follow you that the game will allow, even the shopkeepers. Take them all to Barrow Fields and tell them all to wait. Return to Oakvale, and all the buildings except for the tavern should be up for sale. If a few buildings are not, look for anyone you may have missed and repeat the previous steps. In order to get the tavern for sale, you must kill the tavern mini-game character that sits at the table after you take the owners out of town and leave them. Make sure the guards do not see you kill him, as you will get fined and thrown out of town. Then, just buy all the houses and shops and set them up for rent. After a few days of game time, people will start moving in and you will start collecting rent from each house, ranging from 225 to 550 gold. The two shops only give 68 and 62 gold, but the tavern will give you 750 gold. You can do this in any town, however there will be some buildings that you cannot buy.
There is a weapons shop where you can steal items on the back shelves without the owner noticing. Steal all the items then sell them back, They will reappear, ready for you to steal them again. Chainmail armor appears here frequently, which you can sell for almost 2,000 gold. You can repeat this as many times as desired, as long as you watch for anyone who might wander into the shop.
