I go months without running a ZB but when I do its maybe an average of two ZB's a week for a month or so whenever it looks like easy pickings and I happen to be paying attention. I am only running these on two characters, but I must admit that despite my sporadic participation these things are adding up. I know there are people out there who do all the z activities everyday on 10 or more characters. So as the title says what are you guys doing with these zcoins?

Heavy equipment packs and Zaishen keys (while I was working on the title for HoM).

There's only two legit things to do with zcoins:

1) Buy something that cannot be bought otherwise (pvp skins, pet unlocks)

2) Buy heavy bags for use or sale. (Elite rit tomes are close in value however)

Anything else is a waste of your hard-earned coins. Sell the heavy bags and buy whatever you want.

Only getting coins via JQ/RA, other than that i really seldom get any ZB/ZM. I used to spend them on tomes i needed, got a few keys, picks - depends what i needed. Now i'm just stacking them in the chest

I've been under the impression that selling flames of balthazar is the most cost-effective way of using them.

Was buying equipment packs the 5 gold ones as the 15 gold one isn't worth the extra effort.

Now going for the Z keys

For whatever reason it's getting pretty difficult to sell Heavy Packs even 150k nowadays, zkeys are going steady at around 5k though, so I usually just convert them to keys and either sell or feed them to my alt account.

Never really gave the flames any thought but it seems like they would provide a ~2.5k advantage when selling 5 versus zkeys (purely from glancing over wiki). Will need to crunch some numbers when I get home.

PvP armour and the occasional tome or two when I need them fast.

Flames are arguably the most profitable, as they usually sell for 2-3k each.

Edit: Golden Flames are worth that much, Normal ones are probably cheaper.

i got the heavy pack for my main and used more to get another for a farmer cause i had no other use for them. Since the i just get z keys to use don't really need the gold from them. Then HoM calc came out and I'm saving them for a black widow (unless 7 hero teams arive 1st then i'll just get it with that)
I don't get alot of coins now anyway only do RA/JQ, the odd easy bounty and try the HA one evry now and again (been h5 for a while but to many nub pugs and same builds over and over to be bothered properly)

Not now, but at the beggining the 15 gold ones were expensive (100e +)


I use them for elite rit tomes. You can easly sell them for 12k.

zcoins...already have my heavy equipment packs (even got one for my hubby)....I still load the zbounties and stuff up---easy ones like chubuk village, unwaking waters and abadon, as well as the bounties on the kurzick bosses and some of the eye bosses (for rep points).

I get lockpicks or tomes since i go through those so fast. Maybe not the most cost-efficient use... but tbh, i dont care.

Zaishen tonics!

Tanking DoA as a Ghostly Hero is epic.

Heavy equip bags so cheap now (I can buy for 16e) that I find it's not worth accumulating the coins.

Heavy Equipment Packs for myself.
An occasional tome when I need/a good friend needs.

And other than that, saving them up! (Cause I don't want Zaishen title ;D)
(for potentially an Everlasting Crate of Fireworks)

I do at least one of the bounties most days.

I got myself an equipment pack, finished unlocking all the pets, and now I'm working on my Zaishen title with the coins I get.
