i got money, some dyes and i keep on working on getting materials

Is it Ritualist Armor that takes Ink? Anyway the main thing I'm trying to stockpile is straight gold. I'm gonna need a lot of it since most of the new skills will have to be bought instead of rewarded from quests.

I have a goal of having 500k in gold and an "arseload" of materials. Since I haven't decided what constitutes an "arseload", I don't think I am there just yet. A nice dwarf or something in SF was kind enough to give me a sup vigor for my new Ritualist. I thanked him by slaughtering the rest of his friend's before they could res him.

Nevin · Apr 12, 2006, 06:32 PM // 18:32

I saved up 500,000 gold. I'm just PvPing now, gunna have 10,000 faction to unlock a few elites when Factions is released. Otherwise, I do not plan on tapping into the 500,000 gold until my character reaches a point at which he will buy 15k armor. I wanna play it the fun way, not the rushed way.

Cygnus_Zero · Apr 12, 2006, 06:35 PM // 18:35

Well even with money, you still need to get to the areas that have the armor. So you still have to work a little for it.

Ritualist armor takes Vial of Ink.

I think also necro and monk armors/tattoos as well, not just Rits.

The only plans I have besides carrying my monk over to Cantha is starting an Assassin (since I have no offensive characters at the moment)

I've been stocking up on Hide (yeah, basic but used for a great number of armor types)

I also farmed up a 100k for the release and bought one of each of the Sup Monk Runes as a small investment before the game comes out. I've already made about a 2k profit for each in the short time I have been holding them.

Lastly, I farmed some Manifestoes in SF and traded them for a few rare scrolls. (five 2x exp and two 3x exp)

It would be a real pisser if they set up factions much like the did Chap 1 in regards to storage access with the whole Pre-sear concept.

Opeth11 · Apr 13, 2006, 12:09 AM // 00:09

I havn't done anything o.o

I'm just going to make my Mesmer and then gather my resources for my armor. Of course, there's always the 200k in my stash that I have the option to use. Wish I kept some of my materials though.

Perhaps I should sell all my Globs of Ectoplasm?

Divine Dutchman · Apr 13, 2006, 01:25 AM // 01:25

Like others, I've saved up some money and will continue to save up some money, mainly for skill unlocking and small stuff like Salvaging Kits and that sort of things (have about 110k, not a lot, aiming for something around 200k or so).

I wanna play Factions with the idea of starting all over agian, just as with Prophecies, like many others appearantly, and I'm glad those thoughts are still around

(instead of the rushing/powerlevelling).

Sure, I have myself runned from one place to another now and skip a few parts, but that's because I've seen it all (most others who let themselves run by now probably have). But when it comes to a new game (or chapter for that matter), I just gotta see it all again

. Perhaps with my 2nd or 3rd character, I might have him run or give him some treats from my first Factions character

Unlucky Slayer · Apr 13, 2006, 02:27 AM // 02:27

Gathered cash and materials for the new character(s) I plan on making. Thats about it til my network decided to be mean and not work for me the past couple days.

Cant wait for factions though...

yangster · Apr 13, 2006, 03:21 AM // 03:21

I'm trying to get all the skills for pvp so I could be ready in Factions. Also trying to get as much gold as I can for pve.

Greedy Gus · Apr 13, 2006, 03:43 AM // 03:43

Saved up 10k faction and 50k gold

LordDeArnise · Apr 13, 2006, 05:21 AM // 05:21

Stockpiling materials for what I think Assassins and Ritualists will need for their armor. As for the 6th slot...either another ranger, or a MM necro.

The same goes for gold, although I'm more of a middle class type.

d4nowar · Apr 13, 2006, 05:26 AM // 05:26

Farming gold up the wazoo. Going to make an Assassin (already have half of it unlocked ftw) and a ranger on cantha side, so that means probably cloth, tanned hide, scales. I'm fine.

Back to farming charr carvings for the next holiday event ^^.

Don't forget about wood for your ranger; might need some iron and/or steel for your assassin.

In addition, I'll probably sell the greens my charries are not using; that and the lone ecto sitting in my storage.

d4nowar · Apr 13, 2006, 06:02 AM // 06:02

I'm not too worried about mats. Everything drops the goods, so there's really no reason to have a shortage. Be a salvage freak like me.

I forgot, the last time I made a ranger I used drakescale armor because I thought it looked awesome, and the fire resistance was godly in the fire islands. Druids = win.

[QUOTE=koneko]The 7x00 series of cards is nice, I definitely want to take a step up.

The 6600GT I have is a piece of junk. Random BSODs (nv4_disp.dll), random lockups (driver issue, again, caused by) overheating with the stock HSF, new HSF doesn't fit exactly (I had to take a knife to the plastic on the NV Silencer), underpowered ("laggy" at my resolution, entire map turns glowy-white).

nice is an understatement.

my Leadtek 6600GT has done wonders for me for a year now with never a single heat/visual problem.

EDIT PREPARING

i have 2 good books to read on the way

hunter · Apr 13, 2006, 03:17 PM // 15:17

For people who played factions, what did the warrior armor require? The usual iron/steel and granite slabs/shells?

I hope Vials of Ink drop in Cantha... I don't think I've ever had one drop in Tyria.
