    You need to get a perfect iron hammer at level 50 for the account stash. You get a good set of hammers from there, that you can use until atleast 60. The hammers are a bit pricy atm, so I suggest you start saving up.

    A good three star weapon should do. Check AH, and you can find good deals in there. I suggest you get the weapon Pisces' Tail Handaxes. If you want thought, you can get the Handaxes of Demonic Roar, but those are pretty expensive (at worst like 2m, usually close to 1m).

    The thing about legendary weapons is that you don't buy them, you rent them. You spend 1.2 mil to buy handaxes of demonic roar, use them for 10-15 levels. Then when you get a new better weapon, you sell the handaxes of demonic roar for 1.2 mil.

    If you're really good at finding deals, you buy the axes for 1 mil, use them, and sell them for 1.5 mil. You get paid to use the legendary weapon.

    3-star weapons are much harder to resell. So usually any money you spend on them is gone forever, unless you're willing to decompose the weapon after you replace it.

    Don't get the hammers, never never ever open the box. Nothing in there is worth the cost regardless if you have the gold. Buy 5 tiger packs, wait till they leave boutique then sell them. Then go here and look for a legendary weapon you would like to use till 60 when you can get your TT axes.

    1)Emerald Guardian Charm
    2)Do-all card x 5
    3)G7 shard
    4)Mysterious Chips x 20
    5)Emerald Guardian, Emerald Spirit,Mysterious chips x 20

    Pretty sure that's worth more than 1 perfect iron hammer. Especially if you add the fact that you're getting a weapon thats pretty good for that level.

    Unfortunately, low price tokens have pretty much cratered all those markets.

    Emerald charms are 60% of a bronze charm, which sells for 0.8 gold. So the 3 charms account for 1.44 gold in value.

    With 11k tokens:
    Do-all cards are 31k. 5 of them gets you to 155k
    G7 shards are 154k
    Mysterious chips are 9.9k, so the 40 you get are worth 396k.

    Total comes to just 705k, which with gold at 400k works out to just 1.76 gold.

    A perfect hammer costs 5 gold, minus 1.44 gold for the charms, minus 1.77 gold for the other stuff, leaves 1.8 gold in cost for the level 50 weapon, or about 720k.

    Problem is the level 50 supply stash weapon can't be traded and can't be refined. So any money you throw at it is gone forever once you level beyond the range where it's useful (though I suppose if you have alts you could pass it to them through the account stash). So the level 50 weapon will cost you ~720k which will be gone forever.

    Meanwhile the legendary weapon is essentially free. Yeah you lose the use of the 1-1.5 mil you'll spend for the weapon while you have it, but if you go the perfect hammer route you won't get the full value of the supply stash items until you're level 75. So as it stands right now, the supply stash weapon is a really, really bad idea.

    If tokens go back up to 15k and gold drops to 325k, then the supply stash weapon drops to costing a net 0.6 gold, which might be worth it. But the handaxes of demonic roar or even gale dual hammers are still a better investment IMHO since if you're careful you won't lose any money on them.
