I've been playing since the first beta and between protective bond/trader difference/trader reset/other various things and power trading I have had 5000 ectos at certain points of time I mean jeez I get 600k a month just for betting on the tournaments since I have so many accounts from the days when you couldn't buy character slots.

Whoopie do, and what are you going to do with all that when we all move to GW2?

Master Ketsu · Aug 09, 2008, 06:23 AM // 06:23

I "only" have 500k ( in pure gold ) and +50K ( in items ) and that's plenty enough to buy random crap. You really only need 4000+ k or something that ridiculous if you want to buy obsidian for every character, despite the fact that pure obsidian sets are not that good looking and only useful as a bragging right.

No thank you. I'd rather wear an interesting unique armor combo and use excess gold to buy weapon mods and elite tomes when I need them. Don't really need much of anything else.

In other words, there is no reason to feel small next to those players. They really don't have any advantage playwise and probably get owned by FOTMWAY in pvp like everyone else. IMO Anything over 1000k in riches is really just fluff. I would only try to get that rich if I saw it as a personal goal like some people on here. I do know a few people have fun trying to get as rich as possible ( Ironically those kinds of players rarely spend there massive amount of cash ) , but that's not for me.

Prove it as there is no way you can run from the Sunspear Suctuary to Kodash Bazaar without using wurms.There are no other ways to run there as well unless you do all the missions in between solo which you even as perma SF Sin.

I don't remember exactly how much he was buying so I made up a number. It was in the thousands, though. Plus xxx (hundreds) of armbraces.

Brain · Aug 09, 2008, 03:09 PM // 15:09

also, if you look at the ecto price activity lately(which is generally very positive), you'll see that the people with 8000 ectos have generated even a nicer heap of money snice ecto 3.5k---->5.5k(as of 08.09.2008)

t00115577 · Aug 09, 2008, 03:17 PM // 15:17

Just play the game for fun. These people that have played for 5000+ hrs or something and have 1 billion ectos or whatever they hell they have, you wanna see what they are IRL????

Will see em out in the street talking to random women

'Ill give you 5000e if you be my GF!!'

Seriously lol, just play for fun. Enjoy you 1000 hrs or so that an average player plays GW for. These ppl buying and seeling high end stuff from eachother doesnt affect your life. Its more or less the same 50 or so ppl buying and selling the same items to eachother, just have a browse through highend lol, you'll see em everywhere.

*rant over*

And i honestly couldnt care less if ye flame me, cause ye know its true and so does everyone else.

How about having a clue and realising that most people with mass quantity of ecto/gold made most of it in the first year of the game, in which you could make stupid amounts in 100 hours? Also saying buying and selling 'affects your life' is stupid, how long does a trade track 1 minute? Some people can make up to a 1000 ecto of a single trade, again your point still doesn't make much sense.

The fact isn though, good traders could probably play for a few hours and make hundreds of ecto and beat what you make in your 1000. They dont have to be nolifers, they just know what they're doing.

Malice Black · Aug 09, 2008, 03:52 PM // 15:52

Some of you really don't have a clue. Instead of posting random idiot comments, actually go try trading for a while and see how much better off you could possibly be.

AKB48 · Aug 09, 2008, 05:09 PM // 17:09

If it's hard for you to make 50k and you see people around you buying stuff for 6000e, of course you're gonna wonder "how do they do that?" "how can they get so rich?"

And he's not complaining, read the title of this thread: Can you really be THAT rich? He's just a poor player of GW wondering how do people get so rich. And if you're think a lil trading is all it takes to get 6000e.....my suggestion: relearn the whole trading process, por favor.

Ok, now flame:

Malice Black · Aug 09, 2008, 05:45 PM // 17:45

Me relearn? lol

No one will make 6k ecto these days by trading. Making a few mill still isn't out of the question.

DonCorleoneCS · Aug 09, 2008, 08:53 PM // 20:53

Powertrading died over a year ago. Nobody is going to make a few thousand ectos from it anymore because everything has a basic price now. There are no new items or uber rare minis that have an unstable price. However it is possible to make a moderate sum of money with just some casual playing. I started using my ele to terra in UW when that style of play first began in ToA. Today I have around 600 ectos whether it be from buying them or farming. Making money is possible you just have to go about it the right way.

maraxusofk · Aug 10, 2008, 03:21 AM // 03:21

lol do ppl will over 1000 ectos worth of stuff still play this game?
