What can I do with my money? - Guild Wars Forums

Realm of Fiery Doom · Apr 05, 2007, 12:40 PM // 12:40

What can I spend money on? I've got 2 characters that both have the green staff they want. I have enough money for Droknars armor. I only intend to make two characters.

What else is there to do with money, apart from give it away?

Arduin · Apr 05, 2007, 12:43 PM // 12:43

Buy the Sweet Tooth title. If you've got Factions: http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Sweet_Tooth

McMullen · Apr 05, 2007, 12:44 PM // 12:44

Look at some of the items and armour on guildwiki, see what tickles your fancy and buy 'em to make your character look gangster.

Sir Green Aluminum · Apr 05, 2007, 12:46 PM // 12:46

Spend it to unlock stuff in Eye of the North.

BSSuperman · Apr 05, 2007, 01:05 PM // 13:05

There are plenty of moneysinks in this game.

Buy your way to new titles with sweet tooth or drunkard, buy keys to open chests to get treasure hunter title (and wisdom titles)

Buy capture signets and get all the elites you can.

Or

Hoard it away and gloat over your tresure like a miser.

Whichever tickles yer fancy.

tijo · Apr 05, 2007, 01:27 PM // 13:27

15K and FoW armor if you like getting armor with good looks. Otherwise, buying more weaps for versatility, keys for high-end chests, caping elites, maxing titles, helping guildies who are broke etc.

Faer · Apr 05, 2007, 01:36 PM // 13:36

Buy every single skill in the game (includes buying Capture Signets and capping elites) on a single character that will probably use a maximum of ten of those skills for as long as you play that character.

/shrug

It's what I did with my Monk.

Mournblade · Apr 05, 2007, 01:40 PM // 13:40

Do you have Runes for your armor? Superior Vigor runes are super nice to have, for example...

Mordakai · Apr 05, 2007, 01:46 PM // 13:46

Huh, no mention of mini-pets? They're a great money sink, especially the uber-rare ones.

malko050987 · Apr 05, 2007, 02:12 PM // 14:12

Or if you're VERY rich, sit in ToA and buy yourself enough Ectos and shards for full Obsidian armor. If THAT doesn't make you broke, start getting minipets.

Collect them, and then brag about it. Or outfit guildies with the same pet, something rare. And when in towns, take them all out. A circle of people from the same guild, all with a rare minipet (preferably the same one) would be a very nice screenie moment

Toutatis · Apr 05, 2007, 03:07 PM // 15:07

When I start getting more money than I'm realistically going to use, I start to spend it on new armor sets. The bigger the wardrobe, the more prepared you'll be to fight in style (as opposed to just fighting)

Painbringer · Apr 05, 2007, 03:10 PM // 15:10

Buy my mini pig collection

TheRaven · Apr 05, 2007, 03:58 PM // 15:58

Be a philanthropist... give it all to me!

Just kidding. Like previously mentioned, just find a hobby and sink all your gold into the hobby. There are lots of options in-game, just pick the one that appeals to you the most.

1. Title collection. Your character can be a Drunk cake-eating lucky Sunspear Castellan Survivor who has explored and protected every conceivable corner of the world.

2. Mini-Pets!!!! Gotta get 'em all! Some of these pets are pretty expensive.

3. Are you a clothes maven? Want your characters decked out only in the fanciest most expensive designer armors?

4. Become a power-trader and generate even more wealth. Use your current gold as seed money to build your trading empire.

5. Give it all away. No, seriously. Have some fun holding contests on the board or within your guild. Be creative.

Carboplatin · Apr 05, 2007, 05:25 PM // 17:25

green staffs eh? Greens are for the poor. Get golds with nice skins.

instead of greens, buy ghostly staves and mod them

Realm of Fiery Doom · Apr 05, 2007, 05:46 PM // 17:46

Golds are better than Greens?!?

Well...

I've decided to get my Lady of Fiery Doom some Noble armor, since I think they look the best.

Then get two Bone Dragons, and use them as blockers.

And then steal from the rich and give to the poor.

And then bask in my glory

And get an ascended 15k Pyromancer for my Lord of Fiery Doom.

Realm of Fiery Doom · Apr 05, 2007, 05:49 PM // 17:49

Sorry, double post. Tralalalala.

OMFGimCUTE · Apr 05, 2007, 06:14 PM // 18:14

get 15k or fow armor and good runes or buy more weapons

HawkofStorms · Apr 05, 2007, 06:36 PM // 18:36

Golds are better then greens in the sense that they are customizeable, dyeable, and generally are worth much more.

Sofonisba · Apr 05, 2007, 06:37 PM // 18:37

It was only yesterday you were asking even how to make any money... Now you're ready for 15k armor?

Interesting. What's your secret?
