great, thanks.

I wanted to know that, especially the arrows, because I DO NOT like purchasing arrows. It feels more real, but it probably costs alot too.

oh, 1 more thing
Is there Item stacking?

For some things, yes. For others, no. Materials and collectors items stack. What really bites? My ID & salvage kits don't stack.

yeah, it'd be nice if we could stack up like 250 ID kits and not have to worry about rebuying them for a while....

I agree about ID's and Expert Salvages.. Should be able to stack a few to put like 500 uses in a box.. or at least like 100. Would make life easier.

personally, I think they should satck, but you would have a limit weight, but the more lvl's you have, the more you can carry

By the way, a guild costs 200 gold to make I think - dont hold me to it. However guild capes cost 2000 gold. Anyways, this isnt much gold. I'm just level 19 (only had the game about a week) and I have well over 20,000 gold.

roughly, how long does it take to make money?
whenever I se screenshots of inventory, they have little money like 200 gold.
Is it hard to get?

and another thing,
what is lvling like (slow, fast, hard etc.)

i made a few k today selling steel and fur squares

leveling is fast and easy (well maybe not so easy but not a grind type hard)

some make 20 in a couple days some slowpokes who look around at everything (like me) are not even close yet

After you hit level 20 and get a few elite skills, you'll be able to pick a spot to farm a little bit for gold and materials. Rune hunting is hit or miss at best. Areas that seemingly have good drop rates for them often get whacked by the nerf bat before you have a decent chance to utilize them.

Depending on where you are in the game, the gold accumulation differs. For instance, up until I got past the breach I think (quite early in the game, took me like 4 hours my first time but now I can survive there in under an hour of playing) I was making at max 200 gold in a couple hours. Once I hit about the breach I got some runes and started selling them and made about 2k in a few hours (pretty lucky at that point in the game) and then I got even luckier and got a major rune of vigor that I sold for 11,000. Anyhow, now that I'm level 19 on my highest, and level 17 on my best (Mo/W) I can make gold like nothing. I thought all my money was off my 11k rune sell but then I realized I hit well over 20k.

What I'm getting at is don't feel bad when you're not making any gold for the first couple of days, or possibly even weeks if you're a slower player. Eventually you will catch on fast and start to get the hang of making money. Just one thing to keep in mind, you will generally make more money if you're going solo than if you're in a party, that is provided you are strong enough to take on some decent powered enemies.
