    b:chuckle yes everyone has all sorts of this coinage just lazing around this is why the market is so bad am i right? wth would be the point of playing this game anymore if you had that kind of coin itd be like bill gates saving his pennies for a car.

    b:nosebleed and why do most jump straight to jealousy the moment they read the thread if i cared that much about rank id do things to work towards getting it idc about it though barbs rank gears arent worth getting if you ask me the time i spent farming for that stuff would be much better spent farming for nirvana 100 zerk axes im merely trying to point out the fact that i thought i could find something that would still make the game seem meaningful with real goals to accomplish with out having someone being able to do it with their mommy and daddys CC i know money can be made easily on this game i made 9 mil last night in catshop selling random **** ive had in bank for months i dont use anymore.


    *sigh* only thing left that hasnt been acheived thats still of unatainable uber greatness is warsoul weapons however theres no instance you can farm for all the mats certain mats (warsoul/warsoul of light) only can be gotten with chips so unless you run cube day and and day out getting chips like crazy and beyond the limit of coin the game allows you to carry this will probably never be acheivedb:surrenderb:bye

    I don't get your analogy.
    I gave up on reading the rest.

    EDIT: I remember seeing a thread with a merchant trying to get to 10 billion coins. Last I saw, he had about 2.5 billion in assets. I bet if he keeps going, he has a chance to get it. You also seem to forgot about 10 million big notes so you can carry billions of coins in forms of notes.

    Make sure to remember me when you get your rank 8. b:cute
    1) Get some hax

    2) Transfer Rose to HT

    3) Farm HH and sell for $$

    4) Wait for packs to come back

    5) Buy tokens and turn into badges

    6) Get your Rank 8

    7) Put Rose back on LC

    Barb HP should be capped at 16k and Armageddon needs to be nerfed. Like that too?
    How did you even get to this comparison? Barb HP suffers from diminishing returns (because it's additive, not multiplicative) while the borken interval system benefits from exponential increasing returns. And yes don't tell me it's not broken because -channeling does not work that way, fair much?

    A barb to get his HP works a lot more and gets less returns than a BM even, multiplicatively speaking (i.e ratio of new HP to old HP) because gear doesn't add percent HP, it adds a fixed number. The higher you HP, the less effect a +x has.

    Back on topic, I find it quite admirable to the few that have farmed/merchanted their Rank 8. I mean, I enjoy this game...but for me, it's just casual play nowadays. That's some dedication, there.

    You obviously didn't score in the top 97% in English.

    Btw, I scored top 95% in math, I don't think that test is accurate >.>

    Gyonax I believe was the FIRST on HT and I think MsEvilness was shortly thereafter. They both had a lot of rep via fbs etc. but neither one had rank 8 untill after the packs came out.

    Those were who I was talking about. Lol

    this is how you farm rank 8:

    1. hire 6 mexicans, educate them how to do HH, every noob can maintain a char but might not play it properly.

    2. promise the mexicans a donkey and some drugs.

    3. you have your rank 8

    simple as that

    200,000 rep = rank 8
    200,000 divided by 25 = 8000 (25 cause what officers badge is = to)
    9 tokens = one officers badge
    1 token =13000 (give or take a few hundred coins this being the most consistant price in catshops though)
    9 x 13000 =117000 coins for 1 badge buying tokens with coins
    117000 x 8000 = (ready for this) 936,000,000 (give or take 5-10 mil to count up what uve may have gotten already at lower lvls from questing)

    You could easily lower the amount by quite a bit. For example, most people'd have Rank IV to begin with, just from doing quests. Now, add regular One Man Armies and Wanteds and that's a bit more.

    However, not my point. My point is, there are merchants out there. Merchants with billions of coins. And these people, they don't got those billions because they charged up $2,500. No way, they get that from knowing what they do, knowing their math and their econ.

    And to clarify, I'm not interested in any of them people with Rank 8s, no way. I only care about your claims being unrealistic.

    Fact is yes, most people who'd go for Rank 8 are most likely going to be walking around with some flashy +10 TT99s and such. Now those cost a tad bit more than some 950 millions, especially if you include them being all nice 4 sockets with Primevals and +10s on all pieces. That's gonna go for more than a few Rank 8s, and that's a bit less realistic. But yes, even that is doable, just unlikely. However, if I ever met a single person claiming to have done that and having something to back it up, say, stacks upon stacks of valuables plus some hundreds of millions in coins and a few thousand Gold, I think I would believe it. Now, ten such guys on the same server, no way.
    If you disregard what I say because of who I am or because of the contents of what I said, you are a fool.

    Everyone wants to be different, but when you're different you wish you were normal.

    stopped reading after this.

    The fact that you make an uber butthurt QQ thread about these people (one of them happens to be my faction director) more or less proves that you're the one being extremely jealous for one and fail to have a life (or do smth decent with it).

    9 tokens = one officers badge <--- wrong its 8 :-)
    Tokens were around 9k-10k on each server, which ends up being 50% cheaper for rank8, than your calculations.

    BTW this game is old most playing more than 1 year now,if i want i can make 3-4m a day with 2h of herb farming.
    Imagine I'd do that for about 3 months, thats almost enough to get me halfway through to rank 8.

    PS : and yes i got my rank 8 with merchanting alone too, works fine.

    I know several BM's, Archers that make 30-40m a day if they really want to with solo farming 3-3 or Nirvana.

    3-4m a day with 2 hours of herb farming? I doubt so...

    The price of tokens are 12-13k, if there is no pack sale.

    You can make 30-40M a day solo farming 3-3/nirvana? b:chuckle Very laughable.... I wanna see a BM/archer SOLO a 3-3 b:laugh
    Nirvana? Drop rate sucks without 2x drops.

    I myself have made around 600millions over the last 6 months.. but I know how hard it is to do that, and that's also because I have a group of friends that do TT farming with me all the time.

    I do agree with what Jenovadeath said, almost impossible (but yes.. it is possible if you start really early in this game). It's a looong work...

    If you are a kid, I think it's okay. But if you work, it's not worth your time.
    If you work and get paid $10/hour in your real life job, I'd rather work and earn real life money than slaving myself in this game just to get rank 8 b:chuckle

    i realy think its funny that ppl think this is a QQ over jealousy thread like i said if it were worth attaining for my class i might go for it at some point but tbh theres better gears out there that are easier to farm and much more effecient for my style of play realy dont care that anyone has rank 8 since the ppl that have it are so few and far between you rarely ever see them anywhere in game.
