Regular cash = pointless

Nothing worth while to spend it on except potions and kits!

We can even buy Identify scrolls which are crucial!

Come on why have currency that's worth totally nothing?

    Pots, more Pots and yet more Pots. Also did I mention Pots?

    You'd complain if;
    • The only way to get the current loose-change items was with AD. Why would you want to run actual content to buy those remedial items?
    • AD dropped everywhere, it'd make no sense. Why not just have coins, after all?

    Hey! I had 8 million...8 million! How many potions do I need? So, I bought another companion and am training her up. Didn't add much fun to my game play (my first companion had maxed out)..indeed it made it quite difficult at times.

    But, now I have two companions and 795,000 health potions!

    Pots, and the non special mounts cost 5g.

    Crafting/mounts/potions. You can also find some decent weapons/armor for some pretty good prices as well. You can also horde the gold. The last option is my favorite. I'm only level 29 though, so we'll see.

    Hoarding is good. I like that option.

    Trust me, those pots and injury kits are pretty darn expensive at level 60.

    or give your gold to players who just turned 20 - they will need it for the mount :D

    The point is to make the main currency you can gain / farm during normal game-play useless, thus forcing you to the cash shop for the rest of the currency. This is a horrible use of the currency tier system.

    Where can you purchase a new companion? I purchased the wrong one spamming the '1' button last night, HAMSTER. I heard from somebody in game you could but never got an answer where. I ask this because due to this silly 'forum probation session' I cannot make my own thread...

    I don't want a new companion as the Cleric works well for me. I have (at last count) 74 potions sitting in my tool belt, all from mob drops. I have a horse.

    On the next Hoarders:

    peasant007 has filled her pouches with gold. "I just can't part with it. I know it's useless, but maybe someday I can use it! It's possible!"

    The same place you got your first one if you're talking about the basic ones.

    Eh, i buy a stack of 99 of the best potions and try to keep it there after questing for a day, and buy at least 20 of each kit, and at 60 i've never dropped below 20 gold since around level 55 or so. I vendor every loot that isn't a 60 purple, and that seems to keep it up. They may be pricey, but since it's currently all there really is to spend gold on, why bother saving it up? I'll also say that people who don't use potions are crazy, cheap, no cool down if not in combat, and will help keep you up. Clerics are nice, but people really need to learn to heal themselves. You have no idea how many people (rogues mostly for some reason) that will never heal themselves in epics, they jump into a fight with less than 20% health, and then complain when the cleric doesn't heal them.

    They may end up putting vanity gear for gold, or other things, like the basic mounts. Who knows what's coming?

    Can we get more forms of currency in this game, AD, all the tokens from all the map areas to trade for worthless HAMSTER, Tarmalune Trade Bars, Glory, Zen, Ardent Coins, Celestial Coins, Seals, gold, silver, copper, etc. :mad:

    All the same things gold, silver, and copper could do! Add Zen to make a profit and you're done. Too much time and work to convert everything to get the same old HAMSTER.

    Maybe we can get all the currencies across the inventory bottom like the gold, silver, copper. It would run all over the screen. Remember the good old days of just coin currency.
    How about a Ranger?
