Most of my titles and stuff have been near max for a long time so it hasnt taken alot of effort to max them and gain many monuments. I earnt so much sweet tooth and party animals points over the halloween.
Wouldnt say ive really spent much since the calculator update but i've probably made alot over the basic minis i've been hoarding.

Pretty much have broken even, between selling unwanted minis and buying elite armor for myself and heroes.

Wanted to combine getting either Vabbian,Luxon/Kurzick and/or Obsidian armour with getting to 7 armor statues.
But i dont see that happening soon, or at all, me getting either of those.
So, i spent 100k in getting 2 other Prestige armours to get from 5 to 7 armours.

3 of those 7 are Asuran, Norn and Monumental wich to me looked not good on my male ele, so i sold them asap to get more inventory space back.
Nearly 120k (3x40k) wasted on that...

Had ~80k and 43/50 when calculator came out.
Accumulated over 2kk of gold in ~a week.
Got ~140k, 50/50 and helped friends in getting their HoMs full(er), quite a lot.

Took me about 200K to get to 50 from 46/50. Have made about 500K since then selling stuff and have given away about that much in stuff to guildies. Im buying zkeys as soon as I have 100K though, so I never had any cash. LOL

To answer the OP's question, I think I've bought a Superior ID kit, so 500g.

Used 200e and 300k, so estimate 1.7m
Went from 30 to 47 Points.
The rest is just GWAMMing, which i'm not even close to.

I'd say around 100-120 ecto, to get from low 40's to 50.

I could have saved money if I wasn't impatient/lazy. First, I didn't have to overpay for minis; I could have gotten cheaper ones, or found lower prices for the ones I did buy. Secondly, I could have farmed all hero armors (I only had ~5 to start), but... lazy. I bought a few Destroyer weapons (had all 11 tormented, but no destroyer or oppressor), and did WiK for the Oppressor one.

I didn't need to spend any money on armor or titles.

Fortunately I made most of that money back just by doing Halloween quests and selling ToT stacks. It took about 5 days to finish my HoM and go through the Halloween weekend event, with a net loss of about 100k. Hurrah.

Probably a couple of million, I bought 200 keys at 5k each and 8500 Sweet points at 100g each. Then I bought about 20 minis, I estimate the average price I paid was about 15k each. I bought Vabbian armour and paid 9k each for the gems as well as a few random pieces of 15k armour on my necro to finish off some sets.

Oh and I bought a Tormented Axe for 20e.

So that puts my total at about 2.5 million to get to 49/50, just need to do The Deep and Urgoz and i'm done.

I can't actually believe I spent that much, I had taken a break from GW and came back to finish my HoM prior to leaving the most money i'd ever had on my account was about 500k, farming UW for a couple of weeks netted me all the money I needed plus some extra to blow on Connoisseur (instead of Lucky which was my original intention) which i've always wanted but thought i'd never have to money for.

Just got my Obsidian Armor and I had to also buy Vabbian and Luxon Elite. I, thankfully, got those before the prices got too outrageous. I also bought 3 Hero armors and farmed several more.

Now, how much did I spend? Well, I was sitting on about 600,000 gold before the HoM Calculator came out. I am now sitting on just shy of 1/4 million. Does that mean I only spent 350,000? Not really

I only had a few ectos and shards in inventory so I UW farmed most of the 105 needed for the armor over the last week or so. The shards I bought with the extra money made during the farming.

If we go by the amount given to vendors and armor crafters then at least 3 million.

I've spent no additional money on the HoM since the calculator was released. Instead, I spent most (actually all) of my money two or three weeks before that, when I decided I wanted to buy all 11 tormented weapons and add them to the HoM.

I was actually speculating on it a bit, figuring if all 11 tormented weapons would be required for any specific reward then the price of armbraces would instantly increse to at least double their original value. That didn't turn out to be the case, but I don't mind doing it regardless.

I had all minis before update. I maybe spent 300k to buy some weapons. Hero armors were easy to get by farming shadow nexus and selling extra ones..

How do you buy a PvP title?

^ By buying zkeys to get r3 Zaishen.

Anyway... I've probably spent about 300k on hero armors and a set of elite armor on my rit... Getting obby on my rit soon as well, so about 1.7kk when that's done.

After that... going for some kinda KoaBD title too, so that'll probably cost another ~2kk to get Sweet/Party.

havent spent anything, had enough mini pets stored up undedicated that took me to 30/50 and now that i know theres nothing but titles to 50, im undecided what ill do next. i may eventually get a character to PKM on the title track(my highest only has 7 titles) or higher if i get motivated but im kinda enjoying my break away from the game right now. kinda sitting back and waiting on future updates before i get motivated to get playing semi regular again.

I've probably spent about 350-400k on minis and weapons to get to 46/50.

I doubt I'll get 50/50 because I have absolutely NO desire to do any carting or vanquishing.
