    I suggest spending your money on something tangible, not on something virtual.

    I wouldn't really spend money on any of those ^^

    If I had to spend it on pw, I'd sell the gold and buy a mass of cheap tokens, wait till a week or two after the event (have to time it well before the devs return them again :/) and sell them all off again, then spend the money on decent gears. Oracles are a bit of a waste since there's so many dailies you can hit 90+ in a few months.

    $150 wont buy a herc.

    Why waste your money on this? I would understand spending a little... but 150?

    Hmm, I'd probably buy a "dam herc" then if you're already part-way there.

    I'd spend it on things other then the game. But if you really want to spend it on PWI, then go with the herc. That'll probably have the best payout overall for you.

    150 in oracles might get you to the low 60s. I haven't done the math, and what will you do then? you are gonna spend 150 to get a change of scenery a little bit faster than you would without them. And then its back to the same thing, grinding and selling drops, and squadding to spam skills on bosses. its wont get you anywhere near endgame pvp either. regardless of the oracle noob arguement, blowing your christmas money on oracles sounds like an altogether bad idea, and i dont think you'll be happy with your purchase once the money is gone.

    the herc will pay for itself, if you spend any money on the game at all, although these days it takes a little longer for a return on investment with the current price of gold - sof.

    read post above....oh and i did the math $150 in oracles can get me from 65-75.

    EDIT:wow lame i just like really thought about those numbers 65-75 only 10 levels for $150 thats stupid i guess ill go with herc.

    Herc/Nix is clearly the best deal atm, since they're on sale right now.

    Oracles are by-far, hands-down, the worst choice, since you can sell the Gold, buy Tokens, and make the Oracles yourself for less than half the price.

    For example, on Sanctuary 100 Oracle 3s will cost 24 Gold from the cash shop. But 24 Gold can be sold for about 10.4mill, which can then buy about 650 Tokens, which can then make 215 Oracle 3s.

    gold is 390k on HL(well people buying that is lowest for person selling is i think 410k last i checked)so i guess ill go with herc then ty everyone for replies now i gotta convince my mother who absolutly hates this game(she says it drains my pockets)to let me use $150 on her credit card and give her the $150 cash....or i could buy some game cards but i heard they don't work very well.

    your mom is right. I dont think anyone would blame her is she didnt let you use her credit card to spend your xmas gift on virtual stuff. dont get mad at her when she says no, she's doing the right thing.

    I'm sorry, what? Someone gives you $150 and your first thought is to spend it on a game that might not even be here this time next year and you have the nerve to talk down to me? Seriously?

    And what are you supposed to suck up? How about the fact that you have no life outside of a video game?
