Ok so basically i had to find something to buy with 20$ worth of money before it expired, so i put it into perfect world. i was wondering what you guys would suggest i put it in. i was thinking about getting slot stones so i would always have enough slots to put acc shards into my weapons, but i wanted to see what more experienced barbs thought.

    Do not, do not, do not buy slot stones with the money if that is all you want to spend on the game. You will go through so many different equipment changes over the next 45 levels, it's almost pointless to get those. You won't get any advantage from them for very long. (I change equipment every couple of levels)

    Slot stones are really for end game weapons and equipment, when you know you'll be keeping them for months. You should spend the money on things that are more permanent for your character.

    Here are my suggestions on what to spend the money on. Keep in mind that I'm a functional player and not one that spends money/coin on fashion (I'm perfectly content running around in my boxers)

    Super Inventory Stone: This would be the first thing I would buy. Extremely important as you will run out of inventory space very quickly.

    Safe Stones (or 1 Super Safe Stone): You will want to have your safe upgraded to as many slots as you can for the same reason as above. Figure out which is cheaper (buying super safe stone or multiple safe stones) by calculating how many safe stones you need to get to 80 slots.

    Perfect Hammer: You're gonna want one of those as soon as you hit level 50 to get your weapon, and to continue the crate quest. Just plop it in your inventory and wait for 50.

    Cupboard stone: Effectively increases your safe inventory space. In addition to things you mine, you can put celestone fragments, molds, FB blood, and a bunch of other items in those slots. (I bought my first 2 when they were on sale for 1.5 gold each).

    Faster Mount: Not a necessity, but very helpful in flying around to have a speed upgrade. The other items, in my opinion, are more important.

    Gold: Yes, buy gold with your gold. What I mean by this, is if you have any extra gold after you get the above list (not likely, but possible) I'd keep it in your inventory and just not spend it. There's gonna be times later in the game you really want to buy botique stuff, and haveing an extra gold or two will be helpful. For example, telecoustics become very important lvls 60-80 when you want to find a squad for zen and twilight temple runs.

    Honestly, if you have 20 Gold to spare, the most useful items you can get are the Super Inventory Stone and Super Safe Extension Stone.

    Having more items slots will become greatly beneficial at any level. It allows you to farm more items which in turn = more money.

    Aerogear and Mounts are secondary.

    And DO NOT get fashion items unless you REALLY feel like you don't need the items mentioned above.

    Id agree with everyone on this one. Get a super inventory stone, but not the safe or cuboard extention one. I dont hardly use my safe at all considering i have enough slots on my inventory to begin with. I put shards and Mirage celestones and important stuff in there, but for now i say just get the super inventory one. If i were you, i would buy a gold HP and a silver MP charm becuz they are so expensive in the market right now its hard to find one for less than 550k and coins are getting to be a problem when i have to get a charm every other day and CS done.

    Wow i was not expecting this much positive feedback thanks a lot. the only thing about the inventory extension stone that kinda worries me is that means i would be keeping most of my items in my inv instead of my bank and ive been told if you die you lose items from your inv. do i not have to worry about this though?

    otherwise i will get it when i get home tonight (at work right now :\)

    and thatll leave me with somewhere around 10 gold left i think. i guess ill see about getting the hammer that i need with that $. charms are cool but i hate how i cant turn them off cuz they always activate when im grinding and dont need them yet.

    Id buy Hp charms. since as the other ideas that were listed such as safe/inventory stones generally run for a lower price ingame. (Correct me if im wrong) I'd think it would be better to buy a highly needed item such as charms then sell them to get more of some other items that arent highly needed for a cheaper price.
