I've been playing for a while now. There's no doubt that money is hard to maintain on PWI. The costs of skills gets way to high. I haven't even been able to level my skills in about twenty levels because of it. It's ridiculous. Putting the skills aside it's still difficult to have money to buy things you need as in upgrading armor etc. I know some will disagree. But I don't have time for the ways you can make a lot of money. I'm sure the majority out there feel the same.
If something could be done about the money system. This game would be a lot more fun to me and I'm sure everyone else. So lets keep this thread alive and informative. And lets see where it goes.

Update: My main isn't the level 38. It's a level 52 cleric.

    Well, its PWI, what do you expect.

    They want you to cash shop for your coins at early levels before you get to 90 then realize it wasn't worth it.

    I never cash shoped since i started to play PWI and I will never do it. Another solution is to farm, farm and again farm t'll you puke and get your gear / skills done.

    You must realize.. that every skill you pay for.. you probably will NOT ever use because you take more time to cast it, etc.. so it would be just better for you to just atk w ur weapon bc it would just do more damage without using any skills.. if that makes any sense. Also realize yes PWI is made to give money to them so u can get coin, however, when you are a lower level just try to save as much as u can and pick up every drop, and sell the useless stuff that u wont need. and dont teleport anywhere. Fly places.. I can go on and on, best advice really is... really read what skills you are possibly going to purchase and ask a higher level randomly, say hey I am (your class), what skills shud I buy and stay away from, what gear shud I wear, what weapon shud i have? And trust me.. they will tell you their point of view.. they always will help younger levels. I still do it till this day at lvl 99 >.> because you can never stop gaining new information because you will never know what valuable information other people will have. good luck!!

    Money ain't hard to make.I made 5mil in about a month from nothing spent off 3~4m of it on skills and getting better gear and farmed another 2mil out in like a couple of weeks.
    Just use it wisely.

    According to the CoreC, he's 38lvl... Lol Guess bk to grinding for you :D Lvl only the useful skills.

    There are also some guides on how to make money b:chuckle which I'm too lazy to find.
    & Don't lvl way too fast, once you hit 40, BH's will be available to you. It's fast lvling, but no $ earned, just teleport/wine fees.

    Skill cost is a coin sink and needed. No change is necessary here.
    I am a barb that does not powerlevel, nor cash shop. I may not be the highest level, nor have the best gear. However unlike others, I know how to play.b:pleased

    For lower levels, the Tideborn and Treasure Chest quest chains give plenty of coins to upgrade your skills.

    then you either compensate with cash shopping or stay quiet.

    Because if you don't, then you're just asking for them to give you what you obviously don't deserve.
    I am Olba. Not Ol, not Baze nor Blaze. And even less would I go by Olblaze. Please, take a second to read a person's username.
    If you see b:cute be sure to take a second, calm look at anything I said.
