buy sweet tooth, drunkard, party animal titles
pay someone to HFFF my kurzick title to max (too lazy to do it myself)
buy an obsi armor or 2 for some of my toons
buy the last remaining armor pieces for my heroes
if there's anything left: lockpicks or some everlasting tonics.

Oh and finally buy all remaining primary skills for each of my characters and cap the primary elites on all of them. Never seem to get round to that :P

Good luck, you'll need another 30 million to start with to even come close.

I would sell it all. GW sucks, and I don't need any more gold.

5 Million Gold is less than half what is needed per character to complete the things for HoM titles that cost money. To be worth getting for me I would need around 120 million gold to cover all 10 characters.

Max buyable titles.

Then get a Runner Amethyst Aegis, a few more Moddable Amethyst Aegises, and a Caster Amethyst+Voltaic.

If i can still afford it, finish the Elite Sunspear & Primeval sets for my ranger, and possibly Primeval for my war.

Quit. No joke, with 5 mill the game'd become too boring to play. Well that or a huge give-away.

Wait one year for a way to unlock armor instead of buying and storing it.
IF they do not ass a way to unlock armor and be able to get all armors without storage problems, then I'll just switch to miniatures and get all all I can.

Use it on sweet tooth/party/drunkard/cap sigs, and get my dervish, monk and ele a nice set of elite armor each. (Not that my monk doesn't have enough, but I spoil her tremendously.) I'd give some away, because I don't think I can actually spend 5 mil on just all of that, especially since I don't want FoW sets.

I think a lot of people are missing the fact that the Drunkard/Sweet Tooth/Party Animal titles all cost 1-2 million each...

And most of the time closer to 2 million.

Hmm. *calculates* I probably had it easier because my guildies who have that title/don't want that title are willing to give me their sweeties, so I probably saved a lot of cash on that account. Admittedly I also farmed a lot of tokens during festivals, which probably made things cheaper.

I think it depends on how far down you are already and whether or not you buy everything. I'm about 1/4 of the way through my sweets title and in order to have spent 1 million on it I'd have spent 250k already - which is not the case.

if i just got 5 mil id buy a few more armor sets and weapons, put some on my 2nd account and ebay it and then buy more character slots on my main account and buy party items, tonics, cons and stuff like that and blow the rest on events for my alliance to spread the wealth.

Sweet tooth and Drunkard points are 100g each, minimum. Really, you'll probably end up buying for 125 or 150, which means you're spending 1-1.5 million gold on each of those titles. Party points are way more expensive, from what I've seen. A set of FoW is still at around 650k. Those "cheap" rare items that are "only" 100k+30e and such are still around 250k, roughly.

5 million gold can make you comfortable as in the mid-range of GW, but it means nearly nothing for high-end stuff.

What would I do with 5mill?

Back in the day I'd wonder were the rest of it had gone. These days...dunno tbh haven't logged on in months.

Being rich makes the game boring after a while. Plus it makes you a magnet for scroungers.

Otherwise I'd get all the sexy armor I could find for all my characters. Any left overs will be for 1 uber awesome weapon, like a req 8 crystalline or something...
