So i have a few questions regarding ingame wealth (estimated cash & items):

*Net Worth*

1. How much should I have for playing about a month now?
2. How much does the average experienced/high level player have?
3. How much is considered a lot, or how much would, say, a really rich person have?
4. If you don't mind, how much do you have?

Thank you

    I think if you have enough to repair weapons, buy skills and get what you want .....You have enough. I dont brag about how much coin I have because it is just pixal coin anyways ( I also dont brag how much I have in RL either). If you need coin there are several ways of getting it 1) Whine and beg other players...VERY tacky. 2) go grind and sell to NCP's or 3) set up cat shop.
    You could also find someone rich to marry b:chuckle

    Yea he hit it pretty well on the head. All that matters is if you can buy your skills, repair your items and buy what you need. Some will brag they have millions and millions of coins but if you enjoy the game with what you have thats all that matters

    Alright sure modesty is nice, but that's really not what I asked at all. If anyone would actually like to answer the questions I am asking, feel free to post. Thanks.

    1. Really depends on your gear and how well you've 'decked' him/her out and if you've been trying to save or not. (Realistically you shouldn't have too much, maybe 1mil to a frugal player)

    2. Varries from player to player and how much they spend/upgrade. I can only speak for myself and for a few people I know. I have about 1mil currently(but recently bought hercules, and can farm about 1mil in an hour if I needed it) Other players usually have enough to get by, always spending upgrading.

    3. "A lot" is relative, there is always something to buy. One person might have less coins but more stuff. I'm sure theres people with over 100mil by now though.

    4. 973,451 *points to number 2*



    It might not have looked like the others answered your questions directly, but thats because there is no real way to know(nobody is going around taking a census of everyone at every level) Your questions are too broad, and coins/costs are relative.

    It's a question of what you want. Do you want a mount? Fashion items? Legendary weapon or armor molds? A full-sized inventory/safe/pet bag?

    You'll find that you earn money faster and faster as you gain levels. I had about 1mil at your level, and then a few levels later I blew the vast majority of it on my current weapon's mold. Since then I've acquired several fashion items, a panther, a super inventory stone for my alt, and various other things. So... if I can do it, you can do it. XD

    Thanks for the replies, but I was more referring to net worth, as in cash and items. So i don't mean just how many coins do you have, because obviously buying items, etc. will consume money. It looks like 1 and 3 are answered (1M and 100M+), but feel free to reanswer. Thanks

    1. 1 000 000 to 2 000 000
    2. 2 000 000 to 6 000 000
    3. 20 000 000+ or someone that has legendary pet
    4. (I don't feel like bragging about it)

    Amount of money change a lot from a class to an other. Usually venomancer have a little bit more money then average, but most venomancer don't take full advantage of the class to make money. A venomancer level 60+ can make 10 millions in a month without to much difficulty if she's knows the best way to get money. (Even if you consider that the venomancer is playing only 2-4 hours a day)

    *Net Worth*

    1. How much should I have for playing about a month now?
    2. How much does the average experienced/high level player have?
    3. How much is considered a lot, or how much would, say, a really rich person have?
    4. If you don't mind, how much do you have?

    Thank you

    1. This depends on how much you spend on stuff. A big part of that depends on your class. For me I would make it and spend it up until lvl 40. I could never keep a certain amount.

    2. Average exp/high player, it's really still the same. Some classes spend more. At lvl 50 -55, as a veno I would make 500k pretty easily farming things that dropped element essences, It sells for quite a bit and as a veno I don't have to pump so much into skills, repairs and charms. Even though, I still would spend it just as easy on mats and things I wanted. I made my first million at lvl 50, just from farming.

    3. A really rich person. Probably a veno (selling rare pets), someone that buys cash shop items and sells for profit or sells gold for coinage. I would say 20 mil is considered pretty rich. This server is still relatively new. Consider the most expensive items sell for 5 to 10 mil. 50 mil and you are really doing well!! This is just my guesstimate.

    4. I have 2 characters I play alot, this char my veno, is supporting my Blademaster, lol. If I didn't have to keep up with her I'd def have more. Networth = between the 2 chars... 15 mil. This is including things I could sell right now. b:bye
