Mostly on superior identificaiton kits and expert salvage kits lol

mostly stays in storage, i dont accumilate much. however atm i got about 80k which is a rare site. I might get my monk some new armors but i never spend money on weapons.
Not much need in a weapons on monks tbh, wayward wand is all i need. I have plenty of golds for heroes aswell.

Armors is the way it all goes. I usuallty spend all my armor funds on the 9 rings aswell. There was been times where ive earnt my money back on 9 mrings though

I think the most money I had was 400k :/ I'm not big into farming and only do it when I really want something new, especially new armor.

I'm not a fan of any of the FoW armor skins so spend it on armor I do like. My warrior blew a load on Vabbian, and I spent some money putting towards getting an NPC for our guild hall, and then there's the heroes to rune up. Heroes cost me an arm and a leg cos I'm always making new characters and levelling them up.

Right now I'm back down to just 20k and saving for Elite Luxon armor for a different warrior. That's gonna cost a pretty penny so I guess I should get farming...lol

I really don't know how my money disappears so quickly

Get half-decent ammount of cash..... spend all...

rinse and repeat..

Honetly, the most gold I have had at one time has 210k. I usually just spend all the gold I make.. never bothering to save up for anything.

All I gotta say is, thank goodness for Mini-pets.

I'd never have any money if I didn't have mini-pets to sell.

TheRaven · Jan 16, 2008, 06:53 PM // 18:53

Hmm, I guess my answer really should be split between "leave in storage" and "spend it on titles". I save most of the gold I earn, but I also buy a lot lockpicks. Lockpicks are great for contributing to treasure hunter/wisdom/lucky/unlucky....and it's hard to vanquish without at least a few lockpicks on me. I never like to pass up a HM chest. I might get a tome.

Whenever the boardwalk opens, you'll find me spending a fortune on the rings and getting as many creme brulees and free booze as I can.

Funny though, I've reached tier 1 in both sweet tooth and drunkard without spending a dime on those titles. (Unless you count not selling the alcohol and sweets as "spending")

I also spend a lot of gold on cap signets. I have Tyria and Canthan skill hunter and slowly working on Elona. My title hunter has just now reached the desolation so she still doesn't have access to all the skills yet. I refuse to use Elite tomes. Hey, I could sell them instead for 8-10k and buy 8-10 cap signets with that money!!!

Orange Milk · Jan 16, 2008, 07:35 PM // 19:35

My money goes to Lock Picks (though I haven't bought any in a while due to massive luck getting them to drop while farmin as of late)

ID kits

Salvage Kits

15k armors for that stupid HoM.

Used to spend it all on Skill Cap Sigs, but thats been done for a while.

I've never had more than about 130k at once.

I'm sure I'd have more moey if I didn't give away sweets, Alcohol and mini pets.

Never really squandered it on a weapon, I use what I find or get collectors. Spent some money on a few mods here and there though.

MercenaryKnight · Jan 16, 2008, 07:57 PM // 19:57

I ended up getting a habit from diablo 2. I always would go and farm farm farm. I could have more cash or items than i'd ever need but I still just wanted more "incase".

So I power trade alot, just so I can be prepared for whatever I will want in the future.

I have never been past 300k gold before lol.

blood4blood · Jan 16, 2008, 08:32 PM // 20:32

I picked titles because I've dropped 150k-200k on festival tickets. But my main gold sinks would be skills & cap sigs (I'd estimate something well over 500k spent there), keys/lockpicks (probably 300-500k), and regular/15k armor (no FoW)(probably 500k or so there across 20+ characters).

Jensy · Jan 16, 2008, 09:02 PM // 21:02

Right now, I'm saving for obsidian for my nec. I would like to complete my HoM, and I really cannot stand most 15k nec armor sets :P I have the 4 I can live with (Vabbian, 15k bonelace, Monument and elite Kurz) and this will complete that part of it. I've been keeping a steady 200k in the xunlai, working up to 94-98k over that and then buying ecto 20 at a time.

Other than that, I'm not sure what I'd spend it on. Probably the other 10 weapons for my HoM (ugh) if I decide to go that route.

Luckily, I'm not a huge fan of minis. I like them, but what else do they do aside from follow you around and serve as an overpriced e-peen? But, different strokes for different folks and all that

genofreek · Jan 16, 2008, 10:25 PM // 22:25

I don't let myself get below a certain amount of gold. :P I like having that little cushion in case there's something I NEED to buy later on, or I see an incredible offer I can't pass up. So in that sense it sits in storage and I stare at it lovingly. :P

Generally, though, my money goes to luxuries. I have the money and materials to get at the basic armor and then some, so if I have extra gold and don't need skills, I sink it into cheap minipets, pretty armor, shiny weapons, and title track stuff.

ElinoraNeSangre · Jan 16, 2008, 11:13 PM // 23:13

No option for me - I save it for months until I decide what would be the perfect set of Elite armor (not FOW). I like to keep a pretty high amount of gold, and then I use it when I decide there's something I HAVE to have.

I almost made it to 600k but then I ran off to blow some on Elite Cabal for Elinora. :: snicker ::

I MP I · Jan 16, 2008, 11:37 PM // 23:37

I used to buy stuff with gold. Then I ran out of shit to buy so, I dumped w/e gold I had on me on the ground and rezoned. Now I plan on buying 14 sets of 15k armor with it. After I figure out where in the hell these sets of armors will be stored.

Yea voted for pudding btw.

politicsxxox · Jan 16, 2008, 11:52 PM // 23:52

saving up for fow armor atm , at 650k lol

R.Shayne · Jan 17, 2008, 12:24 AM // 00:24

Currently saving gold for the new year celebration so I can go afk for 72 hours.

wanmoke · Jan 17, 2008, 07:47 PM // 19:47

Pretty sure last year the 9 rings weren't around during the celebration. Almost sure of it. But it would be nice.

Haven't gotten new armor in a while.. been spending most of my gold on titles. Currently working on Treasure hunter.

YunSooJin · Jan 17, 2008, 08:27 PM // 20:27

I wipe my ass with gold leaf toilet paper and blow my nose in gold leaf napkins.

Miss Puddles · Jan 17, 2008, 08:48 PM // 20:48

i'm broke most of the time, but it doesn't bother me.
what's the point of having a bazillion gold if you don't spend it? it's not REAL money after all and i have to remind myself of that sometimes lol. my power isn't going to be turned off if i only have a few plat. so when i have something in mind that i want, i'll save up for a while then buy it. 9 times out of 10 it's armor.

Whisper Evenstar · Jan 17, 2008, 09:13 PM // 21:13

Blowing it all on alcohol, sweets, and lockpicks... nothing different than a million other peeps...

ProgTes · Jan 17, 2008, 09:43 PM // 21:43

Voted the last answer because I couldn't stop laughing

But for real, I rarely farm unless I want something really badly, then I farm untill I have almost got all the money I need, sell a lot of crap, buy my item/armor and I'm happy again. Untill my eye falls on another shiny weapon...

Obsidian armor I didn't farm, well maybe the first 50k or so then I started trading. I suppose a good idea would be to keep 100k in storage just in case you want something you can start trading right away, instead having to farm it all over again. But when I see those 100,000 coins, the only thing I think of is: spend! Spend! Spend!
