Buy a fissure set or two. Make a perfect weapon collection. Go for the gold-requiring titles. Host giveaways with your gold as prizes. etc. etc.

Thanks to all the guru [mods]

Take a Break for a while, come back if you feel the same, maybe give your account to friend, or if you have no friends, hand out your items in game or something..

that'd be funny, some comes up to me, put in 100k, i accept, he accepts, w00t made my day xD

The first thing I would do is give some cash to my friends, then spend them on other stuff, armor, weapons, etc. Good decision there, I'd do the same thing as well.

You could have fun manipulating the market a little. Buy up a bunch of totem axes and try to drive the price up for 55ing. Though you'd probably need more than 2mil for that kind of thing...

Do a give-a-way contest. GW tirvia, SS, races, whatever. Heck, find an outpost and put an ad in the Party window saying you'll give XXXX to the first person to PM you. Then move to a different place and do it again. Repeat.

If money is not a concern for you, spread the wealth around. Buy high end golds/greens and give to someone you find(believe to the best of your ability) to be new and help them by your donation.
If charity is not your way, you can buy a bunch of ale to get drunk title; buy sweets to get sweet tooth title.
Going off Real Roy Keane suggestion, use your gold to get skills and items you may not have unlocked and try out the PVP with your PVE char or a new PVP char.

Always stuff to buy, titles to spend gold towards, and barring that, plenty of people who would gladly accept gold donations.

Honestly I think you'd have the most fun hosting contests...aka puppet dances. DANCE PUPPETS DANCE FOR TEH MONIES!!!

Stop farming
Start PvPing
Try some new classes
Take a break and come back for the next expansion
If you have all the weapons and armor you want, wait for some money sinks
Buy yourself the sugar rush or drunkard titles
Buy a ton of keys and go for the treasure hunter/seeker of wisdom titles
Start collecting crystal swords like Dral does

Sell to your friend?
Simple answer, No.
Don't risk losing everything.

I agree, I quit for 4 months or so and came back. When I quit I gave away 900k in cash, 50something ectos, tons and tons of gold perfect items and handed over my guild to my 'second in command'. He dispersed it among guildies and such, I'm sure it made plenty of people very happy. But logging back and having the bare minimum on my characters wasnt great. But it gave me something to do as far as earning my wealth back. Gave me a new outlook on PvE, Im way more focused on my titles and such more than money now.

IMO,
Keep your account and your stuff, you'll come back.

well....seeing as I like to collect stuff.....get 250 of everything in material storage, get ALL the green items in game....get fow armor for all your characters and get armor remnants and upgrade all your hero's armors....and get them gold or green weapons too....get 250 of the fow and uw keys....and doa keys.....
buy ALL the skills for all of your characters (all 10 profs...)
if you feel gracious go to a beginner city and give 1000gold to each person who asks a noob question......
enough ideas????
right now I barely have 20plat and still have skills to buy for 6 characters (2 of them core but elonian).....so I dont have money to spare....doubt I ever will.

Hey, if you keep building up your money, you might eventually be able to afford two Tormented weapons, or weapon/off-hand combo. Good luck with that.

Make a few of your chars PvP ready, this should cost you a fair bit if you do it right.

I started to collect swords to burn some money...

My friend could use some money or nice weapons. She's still learning the game, and I try to help her as much as possible, but I can't always be there. She got her daughter involved in the game, too. Maybe you could help out some new people with tutoring or something?

Nah in my opinion, new people should learn the game the hard way: starting without a penny

As for your 2 million, instead of buying totem axes (that would take forever..) buy ectos and see if you can affect the trader prices!

hmm 2000000/10... = 200,000 ectos... 800 stacks..18 mules. Daannnng!

I think your math is a bit off, there...


2,000,000/10,000 (price of ectos is ~10k, not ~10 gold :P) = 200 ectos, less than 1 stack

If there was only a merch reset again....... /sigh

imo keep the money, had a guildy who gave everything away before going off for half a year. Came back had Zilch and decided to quit GW altogether. Then again if that is what you seek, giving away things maybe good

Why? He sells it, gets USD and then his character gets banned. Who cares? He's bored of the game, that's why he's selling stuff...

All the holier-than-thou crap aside, there's very few legitimate arguments against selling gold.

Walk outside of a town or outpost and drop it all. Then zone back in, problem solved.

Buy FoW, easy way to get rid of all that cash.

The game is only fun if you crave something and work hard for it (like anything in real life ).

So get rid of that cash, and start anew.
