Maintenance for the week of April 6:
• ESO Store and Account System for maintenance – April 8, 9:00AM EDT (13:00 UTC) - 6:00PM EDT (22:00 UTC)
We are currently investigating connection issues some players are having on the European megaservers. We will update as new information becomes available.

If you are rich in ESO, what would you do?

    I give most of my gold to other players who are struggling to get gear/mounts or give large portions of it to a guild I'm in.

    Seriously, I have no idea how people have millions - do you just trade all the time and thats it? Never had more than a million. I'm used to saving up for tempers to gold my gear. It can take weeks or months. :/

    I can only confirm that I had similar issue in the past and obviously this naturally comes with accusation of item/gold-selling on their side.

    I used to give a lot of my money and things away- but typically those players just take-take-take. We actually had a guild argument the other day because someone got crafted a free set of gear and was outraged when it wasn't mailed to them purple for free. :#

    Now I mostly spend on housing. I try to farm so I can self-maintian my gear. Not much of a reason to save a ton of money, imo.

    Spend over 4 787 995 (yes, I track) gold on key fragments and 300+ runs of ICP for scathing mage divines jerkin and get nowhere.
    Buy useless stuff because I'm bad at money management. Donate to friends and give strangers gold to help them for absolute no reason whatsoever. Or crafting mats if I need them, or gear if I need it.
    Difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 25 DLCs. 41 game changing updates including A Realm Reborn-tier overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver&Gold as a "you think you do but you don't"-tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game.

    There really are some ungrateful people around that are only willing to take, take, take. I remember in one of my old guilds, everyone used to make this guy armour etc, yet when someone asked him why he couldn't even donate around 3k to the guild towards a trader etc, he started going on a rant about all guilds should be free etc. Whilst completely ignoring the fact the guild had helped him a lot more than just allowing to shift his wears. Someone asked if he'd be willing to loan someone gold or mats and he said no to that too. Needless to say he was punted shortly after. No one actually wanted mats from him, it was merely a question.

    Another thing that stands out is I had just paid someone a hefty amount (1m) for the silken ring motif book and he then asked if I could make him some of that styled armour for free. Erm no, I've just paid you a hefty sum for your time and trouble and now you expect me to give my time for free. Normally i do craft for free, but not for a person who has just bent me over a barrel. Some of the hypocrisy shown by fellow players can be quite staggering at times.

    I'm unsure what to do with riches honestly.
    I'm hoping ESO would have some real luxury goods or rides or houses, real expensive, like Lamborghini and Gucci kind of luxury class. Exclusive only to the rich! How cool is that for showing off. :wink:

    the only known mmo to me where is luxury market is eve online , there u can win aliance war and get unique ship or kill rare rat officer for even more rare blueprint on faction ships or you can buy occasional prize ships,

    eso has none of these, it could be great to buy pet/mounts gold for gems or gold for crowns items but zenimax is to greedy to do that :)

    thats it i dont even get any real answer or chance to defend from zos , account went suspended suddenly when i traded bound piece of armour while doing vet dungeon with my guildmates, guild master crowsn was moved to this account after few weeks of asking and finaly when i almost sued zos they gave me crown back but still not answering on my suspended account , only answer what i get is "they can't discuss 3rd account issues" 3rd party lol when its mine , i could use my lawyer but cost will exceed the gain

    I'd skew the economy; First I'd get a guild and acquire players who want to do the same then I will crash all gold tempers. After I do that I will buy them when they're at the lowest (buy all possible) and cause a price jump. Since this will be on consoles it'll be a tad more difficult due to the lack of add-ons which function like the grand exchange on RS. Good ol days crashing items then buying them at the lowest possible value for a skyrocket :)

    Keep on saving, you'll never have enough

    This one rings too true, every time I add another million to the bank, the biggest excitement is how long will it take me to get to the next?
    Donate to guild
    Spend on guild trader bids
    Spend on guild events / donate as prizes

    This is where most of my money that I don't save goes.
    Donate to friends

    Usually I donate items to friends instead of money. Actually, I'm probably not that nice, I tell them I'll put it on guild auction and they can buy it there :)
    Donate to strangers

    Happens occasionally when doing WB runs and some poor guy doesn't have a horse :(

    Rare, but happens...the most expensive thing I've actually bought for myself was lightning staff of the worm for my healer.

    I would purchase every master writ that I could get my hands on along with any needed mats. Then I would build every set crafting station there is and place them in our guild hall. There are a lot so I might have to buy other large houses and spread them around.
