^THIS! I would have been a millionaire many times over if it hadn't been spent on upgrading alts... including buying gear, upgrading gear, etc. I still have nightmares about the cost of Agility/Willpower jewelry pieces when they first came out!
Yup! Why i have a lot of in-game money. I really only play on 1 Character. Playing on several will make you go broke
It's like having kids. It's expensive as hell to have more than one lol
Eh only at first will you go broke. And then all of a sudden? One character reaches master craft and its gravy there on out.PC and PS4 EP only player0 -

Its depending on the data type used for storing the gold number.dramsb14_ESO wrote: »s7732425ub17_ESO wrote: »dramsb14_ESO wrote: »Holy crap! What is the gold cap in this game per toon, and per bank?
It's either going to be 2^32 (4 billion), 2^31 (2 billion), or essentially infinite (2^64 or 2^63).
Sounds like the cap is definitely somewhere in the billions for sure.
In both Morowind with the fortify inteligence potion loop and in Skyrim with the fortify restoration enchant bug greedy people managed to roll over the 2 billion mark.
Probably possible in Oblivion as well. I never saw much posted online about it, but if you could get the Corrupted Clone (from the Trial of Reflections portion of the Symbols of Office quest in the Shivering Isles) to follow you out of Milchar Nexus he had your entire inventory duplicated which you could loot, including gold.0 -
out51d3r✭✭✭✭Never had a million. When I want something, I raise the gold necessary to pay for it. I was gearing up a new character a little while ago. Made and spent around 600k on it in the span of two weeks. Making a million wouldn't be much of a problem, but there's nothing in game now that would motivate me to do it.0

Eocosa✭✭✭Inflation always happens in games a short there are often few real ways to remove gold from the game economy (one of the major reasons I'm a fan of guild traders removing 10-100s of millions from the game each week).
So your million now is not what it was a year or so ago, but even now now it I still quite a bit!
I'd say that'd make you "upper middle class" in the game, you can get anything you really need but not every single thing when precisely you want it. Often in MMOs I kind of see it as you can probably get a few major high priced items but not all of them.
You have more than most have or probably will,but just like in real life the difference in wealth of say the top 5% and the top 1% is waaaaaaaay more than the 99% to the 5th%.
There are people out there with 50+ million! And congrats! You're on your way to being one of them!0 -

✭✭✭✭✭Trying to learn Nirnhoned 34 times on 6 characters is a big part of why I can't seem to hit 1 mil. I literally haven't looted a single Potent Nirncrux since One Tamriel took away my ability to farm Craglorn surveys, so learning Nirnhoned is pretty dang pricey."A probable impossibility is preferable to an improbable possibility." - Aristotle0 -
AFrostWolf✭✭✭✭I have 500k I don't need more, I see nothing interesting enough to spend my gold.
All interesting stuff is available for crowns.
In swtor I could at least spend credits for new mount every week.
Pretty much this. Most things can be earned yourself so gold is rather useless. And without fair market access or market competition prices are too absurd to bother buying much.0 -
peniku8✭✭✭Just to give you an idea of the GM world: in 2016 I've spent about 200 million gold on guildtraders0 -

Have you tried farming for nirn without surveys. I have gotten way more nirn since homestead from just regular node farming.
They also increased drop rate for nirn. I think I have close to 75 fortified and probably 30 to 40 potent.0
