    I'd love to hear this, out of curiousity. I've never cash shopped and I don't think I have a grasp of how much these people spend. When I think about it, it just blows my mind. These drunkards could be putting me through law school instead of paying to 1-shot all enemies in a stupid little game, ESPECIALLY when you get more fights and/or more interesting fights if you DON'T get r9: barely anyone can or will PVP against a r9 +12, but tons of people are willing and capable of putting up a good fight with a r8 +7 or whatever the average standard of gear is.


    If I remember correct, the ring alone is like 300mil? So approximately $300. The armor pieces are cheaper, the belt is about the same (think cheaper?) and the weapon is holy-friggin-balls-sell-your-car-go-on-a-vacation-in-Hawaii-instead expensive. +12 dragon orb on HL is also around 300mil if I remember correct (could be wrong, peasants like me don't keep track of this ****. :P), so just +11 to +12 alone is another ~$300.

    I heard somewhere that is costs about 250 Million coins for a armor set (just the armors), let alone that is with no refining.

    You have two options:

    1) Use the search button

    2) Use that calculator program on your computer

    Hop to it!

    There is something called google search fellas. Give it a try, type in perfect world rank gear and voila.

    The wiki page has all the info u need to CS. If you have decent paying job it shouldnt be a problem tbh, much more time efficient than farming for it. And b:dirty these non CS ppl, unless u play a lot everyone kinda CSed at least some, and no SS of transaction page dont believe them. Bunch of ppl that say they dont CS or CS 10 dollars are just liars trying to be cool.

    Edit: If they did not CS, there is nothing private to show on the transaction page lol, so really not much excuse, and taking an SS and posting here is childsplay, "oh i am lazy" really aint going to cut it. If you dont know how to do that.....god help you....lol

    Here is a better understanding of the cost....was posted a long time ago..

    5Gold = 10.000Chips = 1General Summer Token
    25Gold = 1 Medal of glory / 100Gold =5Medals of Glory.

    RING: 32 Summer general Tokens (319.968chips), Medal of Glory x3 / 160$ Chips + 75$ Medals
    WEAPON: 85 Summer general Tokens (849.915chips), Medal of Glory x5 / 425$ Chips +100$ Medals
    CHEST: 14 Summer general Token (139.986chips), medal of Glory x2 / 70$Chips + 50$ Medals
    LEGS: 14 Summer genreal Tokens (139.986chips), Medal of Glory x2 / 70$Chips +50$ Medals
    BOOTS: 14 Summer genreal Tokens (139.986chips), Medal of Glory x2 / 70$ Chips + 50$ Medals
    WRIST: 14 Summer genreal Tokens (139.986chips), Medal of Glory x2 / 70$Chips + 50$Medals
    BELT: 32 Summer genreal Tokens (319.968chips), Medal of Glory x3 / 160$Chips + 75$ Medals.

    Total Costs: 1.025$ Chips + 450$ Medals (400$ with 5 Medals Packs) =1.475$ / 1.425$

    If you want to know the price with in-game gold you just have to multiply the gold price for 1.02 (AH fee) plus the gold you need for each piece.

    Mind blowing, isn't it?

    Like there's always 4-5 people who will do ANYTHING to win, but holy ****....
    My server has people with r9 +12 alt characters. b:faint

    Here's more food for thought:

    If you're ghetto (like me), to refine, you basically use mirages for +3, tienkangs til +5, tishas til +7, Ocean orbs til +10, some use Ocean orbs + tishas to achieve +11 and +12 you need the 12 star orb. Like that, you could get to +7 with event gold (which you can win) without actually spending a dime. +8-+10 would then cost about ~60 gold during a sale, which if you're ghetto, you wait for. If you don't wait, it's more like 90 gold.

    Problem is these people don't have patience so they're not doing it that way. They likely spend ~30mil to get +7, 90mil to get +10, +11 could vary depending on the technique chosen and +12 is like 300mil. The result is, for one piece of equipment's refines, they've spent $450-600 USD.

    the bold text made me LOLed harder.ur funny
    and yeah r9 is very expensive and ur right to go on hawaii vacation.but also, if u know how to make money from money, its much cheaper and pleasure giving experience.
    i for my self, spent 150 $ during a rep sale and now m on appx 550+ $ worth of gold
    also, this i am doing for my r9. i am not some rich guy, nor have rich parents, those 150$ are also my own money, so when i am done with first 2 basic r9, ill be much more happier and satisfied than a CSer r9. all other things like refines and such comes next and do take time but every mmo demands ur time.
    and prolly, when i am done with my full r9, guess there will be r10 b:thanks, so r9 is achievable but u need patience and time....for it....

    I'll reiterate. To find an answer, you have two options:

    1) Search button: Right there under your forum avatar on the upper left of the screen. See it? Yep, right there.

    2) Calculator: Any old one will do! Four-function; solar-powered; scientific; graphing; qwerty-capable; qwerty-deficient; anything that crunches numbers! Hell, build an ALU in minecraft if you can't get your hands on one!

    Right, but like I point out in my above post, a lot of people don't do this. I'm ghetto as balls, but thanks to helpful friends, even I have managed about $140 worth of cash farmed since x2 started. But a lot of people are impatient and just CS it all, and THOSE people just blow my mind. On my server I can name 4-5 people who fully CS'ed r9 +12 in the last week ALONE. What's worse is that one of those dudes bought it TWICE. (for two characters)

    With the money for r9 I could learn a foreign language, go on vacation, sit on my butt and not work for a good ~8 months, pay my tuition for 2 years, buy a used car, open a savings account that would profit me when I'm 40 years old....

    with current gold prices u can probally sell $100 worth of gold and get 200-300 mill (depending on current sales) in return. use that 200-300 mill to merchant and double and even quadruple it. then use that money to buy rank 9 stuff ingame. u would have only spent 100$ instead of the $2k it costs for rank 9 un refined.

    takes alot of time but thats probally the smartest thing to do. and u still have $1.9k to go on vacation with.b:victory

    of course if ur lazy then u can go full out with it. but the real life money it costs to get rank 9 is just pure rip off. thats why i LOL at the ppl in the EG rank 9 thread begging for there rank 9 gear for EG. sad ppl.

    unless your insanely rich/have money to throw away then the best option is to farm it. im not sure how long it takes to farm full rank 9. but seeing as how everyone in enrage on HT have +10-+12 rank 9 it cant be that hard.

    You could not do all that for the price of one full r9 character.

    -Learn a foreign language, ok.
    -Sit on your butt and not work for a good 8 months? If you live with mommy and daddy
    in the basement and not pay bills, ok.
    -Pay tuition for 2 years? Not likely, please try again.
    -Buy a used car? What kind of car is this really?
    -Open a savings account that will profit you at 40. If you're still 12, and the interest rate that accrues annually is a larger amount then what banks currently offer could benefit you at age 100, otherwise no sir you will not.

    BUT to do ALL of these for the price of 1 full r9 character? No you can't.

    If it makes me a **** to suggest that an individual take it upon himself to find the answers to his own questions when he has the very tools at his disposal to do so (ironically, my very job as a teacher), then I guess I am a pretty big ****.

    I don't really mind. I take it upon myself to combat pathological laziness since, you're absolutely right, not everyone has my mindset. I am not lazy. :3

    EDIT: I definitely posted more than just "use the search button." I gave him TWO options! I guess I felt generous today.

    I heard somewhere that is costs about 250 Million coins for a armor set (just the armors), let alone that is with no refining.

    each armor piece costs 152m aprox..

    2 Medals = 27.5m each + -
    14 GS Tokens = 98m + - @ 7m-8m each

    so not 250m =)

    Another thing .. cash isnt necessary. i have R9 ring, boots/chest +10 with 4 jades each and r9 axes +10 2x g.gems and i didnt cash it lol. just takes hard work and some free time to farm =P (axes took like 3 months to farm -_-)

    I love how this person is apparently under the impression that learning a language, paying rent/electricity/food etc, and paying tuition all have a universal price that's the same all over the world. Those are examples from MY living situation, the local language school and MY university.

    Also wtf how can diss a savings account?

    Over $1000? That's called a casual cash shopper here.

    I could name at least a dozen people I know that have spent over $20,000 on this game. There's one char on LC that's spent close to $100k by now I imagine.

    Refines and sharding isn't being added to that amount.

    If you don't do it cheaply(the way longknife mentioned at least) you could end up burning about $3,000+.
