Gold (currency) will be gone long before gw dies. I plan to spend it on various expenses whenever I come back to this game.

Ectos will likely be sold for more gold to cover more expenses.

Perfect golds I'll likely sell (with the exception of items with sentimental value) since they can't be added to the HoM.

Everything else will gather virtual dust.

Nothing, because i don't have any.

I feel so special when i am able to save up 100k, usually i get money then spend it on silly things>.<

Edit: Read the OP more

My achievements are all on my many PvE characters, so it's hard for me to put everything in 1 HoM.

I swear i have so many sets of 15k armor for all my characters.....i wonder what it would be like just to have 1 character....

^ You sound like me. Once I reach ~150k, I usually go buy 15k armor for a character.

Same; but your 100k is my 30k! Once I get 30k I always have to spend it on something It gets me mad because I wanna finish my FoW set but i'm too preoccupied on other things I never have the money.

Near the end of Guild Wars, I will sell all unwanted items and ectos and get as many sets of FoW armor as I can, and keep all weapons with a nice status still on their head, (Which most of mine do). Hopefully, I'll be able to cover at least 7/10 characters by the time that happens.

Who knows what will happen some time before GW2. It's rather pointless to speculate on your actions right now, don't you think? :P

You know just because GW 2 is out doesn't mean GW is over, GW 2 could be worse and ppll might come back and play GW just for fun... Besides if gw goes down and no one plays it anymore ill just buy out the ectos, rubies, and onyx in the merchant.

I don't have the luxury as the OP. I'm trying my hardest to save up all I can to buy FoW...I'm at 166K and 85 Ectos. I've already got the other materials (aside from shards, which I'll buy).

It's so hard because I'm so impulsive!!

As the days grow dark and the nights gain in length I wander around these empty city's. I venture into those few places that have not become overrun with monsters and the corpses of those poor hench left to fend for themselves all alone against the evil.

In cities near and far I come across small piles of abandoned weapons and armor, all customized and useless....

Shaking off the shackles of despair I sumon those few loyal Heros that have remained in this desolate place with me and slowly march forth to vanquish all in our path.

Hang in there, haha.

I just got all the shards I need a couple of days ago.

Now, I just need a few stacks of iron to craft some D.Steel...

That's my thought as well. If it gets to the point of quitting GW for GW2, convert it all into stuff that can be transferred through the Hall of Monuments.

Like how a lot of people didn't like Everquest 2 and decided to keep playing the original Everquest.

Maybe in two years, when this actually comes up, I'll have some ectos and perfect golds to worry about. For now, it's not an issue.

i will probably just merchant everything and then get really pissed off when I find out they weren't really going to close the servers down and probably punch my monitor.

Do not mistake the moment of GW2 release with GW1 death. It's going to last long long years after that, there will still be hardcore fans and casual players and even new players coming to the game. And as long as there will be players playing, the virtual goods we have will remain valuable.

Just let it sit there and do nothing with it. Only thing that has any value are the friends I've made.

I'm more then sure I will have used them all by that time. More or less a worthless thing for someone that does not deal with the inflation market or believe in wasting money on armors that have no benefit to them beyond the cosmetic.

I have around 200 ecto saved up from farming over the years. have yet to have a reason to use 1. I may get a set of chaos gloves or something someday. IDK. maybe, maybe not. I just can not find it in me to care one way or another when the others in the game are so obsessed about how much you have compared to them and farm to boredom in order to try to surpass some number, instead of playing for the enjoyment of playing.

I was thinking about this very thing tonight. This is probably one of the more depressing things that I have seen in my online life. To see something like GW die a slow and painful death. Even now it seems like people are slowly trickling away from GW, and all our accomplishments and all the lore we established will be for nuaght.

Anyhoo - Probably what I'll do is get up to the 400k mark becuase I'm saving all my money at that rate. Then splurge an 15K armor and minipets, and anything else to fill my HoM's so I can transfer to my GW2 characters.

Though, really, that will be a while before I would throw my stuff away like that. I just hope that they don't shut down the servers overnight so that people have enough warning ahead of time to do that kind of thing.

Just buy FoW armor for all of your characters and add it to the Hall of Monuments, then you at least have something left in GW2.
