What do you guys spend gold on?

MorHawk · March 2015

So I'm loving the Justice System so far. Found a sweet spot tht yields about a grand every ten minutes. One question though -what can I spend all these newly-acquired shinies on?

For the longest time, I was saving up for all those special 42k horseys, but now that that's gone poof, I'm not really sure what I'm hoarding for any more.

Oh, as an aside, I can't help but laugh that the recent forum crackdown came in at the same time as 1.6. I'm now sat here wondering which will expire first - my bounty or my forum warning. I wonder, if I get to level 3 do I become KOS to the mods? Can I go into offline stealth mode? lol

Oh! I demand a 'Smugglers Refuge' sub-forum where us unsavoury types can post in safety!

I do PvE to get gold for Tripots to use in PvP. I'm almost always poor. Usually after I get enough gold to buy a stack-o-tripots I have 4-10k gold left, most amount I've ever had was 120k

Watch out. The mods are harder to escape than the guards!

I used my ill gotten gains to finally buy that last bank upgrade.

I've also bought 2 armor set pieces that I haven't been able to find on my own.

Tripots and upgrade mats are the most common, then I save up for larger ticket items. For example, I'm looking to pick up my yellow footman rings this week or next.

I have multiple characters. Now that horses are only cosmetic I can give each character one that fits them. Plus now I also have at least a horse worth of rider traing points left to buy each. That's around 100k gold by my estimate. And that's not counting buying two more horses, the final bag up grades for all my not mains, set peices from the guild stores when they level up again, crafting suplies...

Repairs, horse feedings, and occasionally mountain flowers since apparently i am unable to find them in the wilderness. Beyond that my gold is hoarded Scrooge McDuck style.

***WAVES HANDS*** You need new Armor and weapons....

UrQuan · March 2015

I've spent a ton of gold on bag & bank upgrades and horses (the account-wide change for these means that I won't have to do this again unless a new mount comes out that I want, and that can be purchased with gold), and I'm still spending gold on riding skill upgrades for all my alts.

Other than that, the only thing my gold is going towards is buying things from guild traders that I can't be bothered to farm for myself.

I always seem to save up loads of money, like 150k, then i could spend half of it in one day

MorHawk · March 2015

Oooh, bank upgrades. I forgot about that. Thanks!

And yeah, you can always use better gear.

thelordoffelines · March 2015

Tripots, some tripots, maybe a few tripots, and if I some gold left, more tripots.

Faunter · March 2015

I spend my gold on more gold.

LilChihuahua · March 2015

Spend my gold on racking up 120k bounties

Yeah, interesting crackdown, too... by taking parts of the ToS completely out of context.

Fine, one less subscription to pay...

With respect to what I spend gold on:

Very little.

Bag space.
Bank space.
One mount (now shared between all eight characters).
Repairs.
Periodically, a bribe to an NPC.

I refuse to use the guild traders because they're all overpriced, so that means there is nothing to spend on.
