if you don't unlock any skills or items any other way?
for skills:
there's 1134 total skills in the game
290 of which are elites (not counting the pve only skills)
844 normal = 844k balth faction
290 elite = 870k balth faction

there's some skills that are unlocked just for creating a character plus you can get some free skill unlocks if you just make a pve character and do the first few quests in each campaign.

for items, i'm not sure since i don't know how many unlocks there are for that.

upgrades for martial weapons : total : 255k faction

prefix :

elemental mods : 4k faction x 7 weapons = 28k faction

condition mods : total : 31k faction
barbed : 6k (not on hammer)
crippling : 6k (not on hammer)
cruel : 6k (not on bow)
poison : 6k (not on hammer)
silencing : 3k (only on bow, dagger and spear)
heavy : 4k (only on sword, hammer, scythe and spear)

zealous : 1k x 7 weapons = 7k faction

furious, sundering, vampiric : all 3 have 3 tiers, 1k/tier, 7 weapons : 21k x 3 = 63k

suffix :
defense, shelter, warding, fortitude, enchanting, mastery : all have 3 tiers, 1k/tier, 7 weapons : 21k x 6 : 126k

same thing can be done for staves, wands, shields and focii. And then there are runes, insignias and inscriptions ...

Runes take a ton due to 3 levels of each and increasing costs. Just keep in mind that there's a difference between UAX and unlocked everything useful.

Real people are UaX

My expectation would be around 2 million.

Going and unlocking a good amount of those skills/upgrades through PvE is probably your best bet. Or else between skills, upgrades, runes, and heroes, you're looking at 2.5-3mil probably.

Actually, only two tiers, once you'v unlocked the base tier (ie 1/1 vamp) you can then unlock the max tier.

Probably thousands. You're much better off doing a bit of PvE to unlock or just getting the skill unlock packs from the online store.
