It's even harder for those of us who find those skins ugly.

Buy ectos at 4k, trade straight across for zkeys from people when ectos are higher.
You misplaced a zero.

That's 20,000 keys, or roughly 21,276 ecto if you price zkeys at 5k and ecto at 4.7k

No you wouldn't stevedallas.

You'd need a lot more than 5 million for that.

you dont know what his titles are though.


I'd get my last 6500 sweet and 4500 party points done and over with, then put the rest towards zkeys or lockpicks as I now see myself maxing wisdom in a couple months at my current rate of farming.

300k-ish: Mask of the Mo Zing for my assassin (The only class that has any business wearing them, IMNSHO).

1.1M - Bribe people to make a UW group with room for a ranger so I can finally play through the area.
825k - Bribe people to make a FoW group with room for a ranger so I can finally play through the area
825k - Bribe people to make a Deep group with room for a ranger so I can finally play through the area
The rest - Slut armor!

You can bribe me. Hell, I'll even throw in a discount depending on how slutty your armor is.

Because nothing worth buying is for sale anymore, certainly not at that price anyway.

Unfortunately I don't actually have 5M gold.

But I do have Elite Druid Armor. Rangers don't get sluttier than that.

I only have 1 mill gold, and no idea what to do with it. So I'd really have no idea what to do with 5 mill. I don't think I can get that much in pure gold anyway. I don't have enough Character slots. I can only get 2.2 mill max. or about 1 mill more than I curently have.

I've already spent it.

But if I had it, I'd run around yelling "I'm rich! I'm rich!" like Daffy Duck. (And then spend it.)

I have and am not doing anything with it atm.. at sometime I'll mess around with armours, but most chars are still in basic ones - in the meantime I'll continue playing the game.

Hmmm so your thought is to buy (say) 40 character slots (holding 100k each) @ $10 each = $400 as opposed to getting 3 extra accounts (as cheap as $20) that will hold 1.4 Mil each (Total of 4.2 Mil).

Yes, I can see why you would call others silly.....

Ofc you dont buy anything with real $ but convert the cash to ectos or keys and hold it that way (and suffer the deflation risk).

I'd buy FOW for my rit, Vabbian for my husband's elementalist to try to get him to play with me (hehe), and probably a few more sets, but mostly I have what I like. Maybe a handful of expensive weapons I've never been able to justify to my bank account. Might buy a minipet or two, but only things I actually like. Would probably deck out my heroes on my rit, I love my heroes and the artwork on their upgrades is awesome. Wouldn't do titles, titles are dumb. No guildies playing anymore, but if they were, I'd twink them too obviously. I'd have a ton left after that, so I'd probably do some sort of event - not a pure give-away, that's just silly - but maybe a lottery or GW-themed trivia contest or something with huge payouts.

If? I have more than that on hand at the moment in ectos / armbraces / plat...

Oh well, I have fissure armor on my 3 main characters (Fem War/Fem Monk/Fem Sin), but only 1 wears it (Monk) and my warrior only uses the boots. Then I have a fine selection of low requirement skins that I like (chaos axe, sephis axe, pyroclastic axe, sickle, zodiac axe, dwarven axe, murssat hammer, tetsubo hammer, and wingcrest maul) on my warrior, similar on my sin (aureate, gilded, oni and demon fangs) and the basics for my monk essentially (just a simple 40/40 heal, 40/20/20 prot staff, +30/-2 set and defense set with an r8 tact shield). Various shields, but I use my tormented shield collection 90% of the time (typical, but still imo the best looking shield in the game), and misc 15k armor sets.

I don't really have any use for my money at the moment except to spend on con packs and new items for heroes and such (my sin and war characters are using semi-rare skins and sometimes rare skins just so I can blow money on something).

I don't collect minis, so my money doesn't get wasted on stuff like that (though, one could argue it gets wasted on other things). My current money sink is getting GWAMM on my new monk.

5m in ectos/keys/cash, etc. is almost like pocket change for some people. I guess we just kinda trade it around, spend it, or if you're like me, give it all away to friends and random undeserving (oops, did I think that out loud?) people.

Buy an outpost if possible.

Otherwise, just buy armor and give random money to guildies, buy things that aren't for sale.
