So I just wanted to see from all venos, how long it took to get their Hercs and Nixs. Dont be shy b:bye

I also would like tips on making money effiently like grinding, picking up every drop, etc... instead of camping grounds where rare pets spawn every 12 hrs

And I dont know if theres another thread like this (if there is *sorry*), but Im just wishing to see every veno's experience and aspect

edit: the fact that its gonna cost more then 25mil+ is kinda discouraging me, i dont know how to take on such a huge number :(

    Herc took longer than my nix,a month i think of farming tt's with my lil magmite friend(most of them solo mode and not group runs)also every dq i got i saved in my bank,maybe sold enough to cover repairs,i just let them grow into a mass of stacks before npcing them...that was always fun O.o

    Doubt doing solo tt's would work now though with prices way they are.

    Once my herc was levelled,nix took me around a week of farming squad mode tt's,though it eats up a serious amount of your time.
    Quit 100%...and surprised my forum account wasn't banned...yet

    There's another thread on this, but whatever.
    Herc took me 10 days I think.
    Nix took me 2.
    Friends herc took me 3
    Another friends herc took me 12

    The 12 day was due mainly to sales being slow on my vendor. Eventually you farm faster than stuff sells and you just have to wait to get rid of it. A few things I flooded the market on pretty bad I think (such as having up 50 Ancient Serpent Skin's at once since none were selling) which ended up hurting.

    What?!? How? Surely, you Jest?

    I have been trying the methods posted, aside from Farming and selling TT Mats, and it's gonna take me more than a month for sure...

    Now maybe if I got myself a composting toilet for a chair and intraveneously ingest Red Bull and never get off the game... maybe, just maybe it might happen. =)

    It took me 2 weeks of solid grind, 8-12 hours a day, getting about 150k an hour, killing Ratchet Jagmech, at lvl 61 to get my Hercules.

    A friend of mine got tired of watching me strugle and wanted me to catch up to him so bad that he gave me $50 to finish it off lol. That was enough to to buy me the Herc that day.

    The Herc was 167G total to get, I got lucky with alot of 50 and 40 packs :laugh.

    Herc took me like two weeks, from farming mid mats. Haven't really been making much of an effort to get a Nix.

    Really hard to answer this question. You can say it took me 3 months to get herc since I wanted one since level 1. Or it could mean how long it took to get 20m~. Or it can mean how long it took to find the SoF/PF.

    If you mean time actually spent TRYING to "save money" for the herc/nix, I would say 2-3 weeks and another week buying gold/battle packs. For nix, 2 weeks of saving, then 1 day of buying gold/battle packs.

    Herc costed 16.9m (not during battle pack sale), nix was 15.6m during battle pack sale.
    I was early taught to work as well as play,
    My life has been one long, happy holiday;
    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.
