How rich(or poor) are you?

[GelatinousOwen]

Just wondering where what the average level of wealth seems to be. How much cash do you have in game thus far? A few silver, 50 silver? A few gold?

[Jacosta]

I currently have 5s 80c.

[Forshal]

about 65s at lvl 15 for me.

[ThreadKiller]

I'm an artificer so plenty of work orders, I have about 90s.

[kab]

[Soliex]

I try to leave myself a 3g Cushion, right now im floating around 3g 50s.

I'm a level 23 Sorcerer.

[Meassi]

At lvl 11 I have 2s after buying horse, skills and gear at lvl 10.

[Jayce]

I had 6.5 gold yesterday but then brough a house plot and put in some upkeep, i'm a level 12 outfitter and have sold a ton of bags since day 1.

[ShadeVice]

about 1g50s.

I spend a lot on broker tho

[perfect]

I hover right around 80s.

[AsheMan]

I just bought my rank 3 horse for 10 gold, so I'm poor now and only have 1.5 gold.

[Rowr]

I just bought my rank 3 horse for 10 gold, so I'm poor now and only have 1.5 gold.

I only have about 25s right now. I don't do much crafting, mostly quests. :(

My high was around 38s but then I bought a cool new Yellow (rare?) sword on the broker :)

[Sunderban]

I only have about 25s right now. I don't do much crafting, mostly quests. :(

[fitch]

[Kates]

I have about 1g 50s on my 20 bard and about 75s on my 18 cleric.

[Xonx]

Level 17 Bard, level 17 tailor.
3g 55s.
I could probably have a lot more if I were more agressive about making light armor and bags to sell on the broker. In other words, if I spent more time making and marketing real products and less time grinding work-orders...

[freefall99]

Level 28 Cleric and currently have 22gp

[Flinas the Stumpy1]

1G 40S - 18 Bard

[fordfanboi]

Most I ever had was 30s. Man, I remember drive by pickpocketing in EQ1 when mobs had separate pickpocket tables - I used to hang out by the hill giant farmers and get rich! :D

Hmmmm..... :twisted:

[Puuma]

L27 with currently 8g after loaning out 4g for infineum weapon quest.

How does he have that much? Time management. you can spend 2 mins to kill a 3 dot or 5 mins to kill a 4 dot and get 1 trash loot. I can kill two or three 2 dots in less than 2 min and get 3 trash loots worth the same amount. Check my NPC kills. Trash loots add up quick. So buy some big bags and get rocking...oh and 3rd bit...A good caster tries not to get hit much. This reduces the repair cost drastically compared to melee.

Not to mention the Firegrass 1s/bale and the Stiff hides 30-35s/stack are hot sellers as outfitters reach the 3rd tier. (I am thinking 2s/silkbloom bale and 50s/stack of coarse hides.) What's the market for resources on your server? Outfitters on Thunderaxe can send me a mail or a tell in game..I promise prompt same day delivery. Usually within the hour.

[Yirkin]

I have 1.2 gold at level 21. I have had about that much since level 15 as every coin I make goes to repairing my armor.

I am working my crafting up (8 outfitter now) so I can make some more cash =)

[Evilbunnies]

Not average, but I have 25.5g as a 26 bard.

Mmm farming golds so much more fun then grinding xp :) I probally spend more time getting gold then I do getting xp passed level 19 or so.

[mhoward48]

Do a search for camel merchant in the wiki and you'll soon find out. :)

Camels start at rank 2, 3 gold.

[WildAce]

my lvl 25 monk, Yuanjia had about 11g but i just gave 2 gold to an alt.. Terminator.. lol.. such a dumb name :) but im going to try and go all out dps with him stat wise and such. so he will be intresting to play.

i cant decide if i want to buy a T3 horse for my monk or not. 10g is alot for +10% speed. better off saving it for the next tier or something.

Thank you Sir, i never knew you could search for merchants in wiki.

You're not the only one. I have about 16g right now, after spending some. I used to have closer to 25. And this is at lvl 17.

Not even trying that hard. Just constantly selling drops for around 10s each on the market. Always have 10 items listed.

There's just not many cash drains for a ranger, I guess. My armor doesn't seem to cost much to repair, and I'm wearing good stuff. A full suit of top end ranger armor runs less than 1g to buy, so I don't have anything to spend money on.

Need to get a house now.

[Xofi]

have about 12 gold now. work orders and drop selling. plus i never buy anything. my goal is a big house.

[RoodyPooUS]

About 15 gold here at level 30. I get money much faster soloing and I dont really buy anything. I wear quested items or drops.

[wargod1968]

Just dinged level 12. 31 silver, some odd copper, decent gear, only Lomshir newbie horse.

[uktitan75]

16 Scorcerer and 25 tailor i have 32g 45s. I sell a LOT of bags :D

[thouartsimple]

With my character and my alt, I have about 30s... but I had 50s before, but I had to buy new armor for my alt.

[Chupacabra69]

44 gold level 17 disciple. Love them gold farmers:)

[HolyAvengerOne]

16 Scorcerer and 25 tailor i have 32g 45s. I sell a LOT of bags :D

15 Blood Mage and 10 Tailor and I've got 1.4gp. And yeah, mostly due to selling bags, too :D

[Bhima_LS]

My 19th level warrior is back up to about 95 silver (when I hit 18th level I could not even afford to buy the new moves so had to farm copper for several hours to buy moves).

Usually I hover around 25 to 50 silver, but as I near 20th level I know I need to save again so I don't get caught without ability to buy new moves.

I also spent about 2 to 3 silver a day on repairs. During 19th level i'd say 10% to 15% of what I earn goes straight to repairs.

[shadowkai]

44 gold level 17 disciple. Love them gold farmers:)

Seriously?

[qaediar]

Level 15 pally and i have about 70 silver and about 100 silver on armor/weapons. Most of that money came from selling low in one place and mailing those items to an alt far far away where i could sell high.

I tried tradeskilling but got bored after level 5.(do people seriously enjoy clicking 4-5 buttons for hours on end looking at the same screen? )

What a marvellous opportunity for some bashing, whining and trolling.

Why is it that EVERY frigging MMO (ok except CoH), makes crafters obscenly rich and adventurers poor fellows? Can someone explain me that? Should the different spheres not be equal in value = gold output? Why is a 4 hours crafting session more valuable than a 4 hour mob killing & questing? The logic behind this escapes me. IMVPO a MMO is centered around combat & quests. While you may like crafting more, you may just wonder for a moment, which of the classic spheres (adventuring and crafting) you could take away and the game would die?

Naturally, the answer is adventuring. Killing things in the backbone of any MMO. (Well, maybe besides exotic flowers like Sims Online). Crafting is a by-product of combat. Crafters are dependent on fighters to buy the majority of the stuff, while an adventurer could well live without crafters. Despite this clear dependence, crafters get insanely rich in nearly all MMOs. Why? Why does killing mobs for some hours NEVER pay as crafting the same amout of hours? It is not more dull or interesting in itself, if you like it. So, why? Devs COULD change this 1st and 2nd gen MMO habit, but as in many other areas Sigil lack both vision and courage to really re-define those MMO habits.

[Thorgarr]

This is simple enough for the most part crafter get all thier money from other players and they dont really add gold to the server. Where as anyone out soloing and killing, loot basically free money. So if you incrased the drop rate of gold then the cost of all the crafting items would go up because there is more money in the economy and they still be richer then the average person. Maybe if you convinced no one to buy items from crafter s they woudnt have any money and you woudnt have to worry about it.

You completly missed his point.

Im a 30 clr with 17g and probably 5g in sellable assets.

3g of that has come from diplo. The rest has come as a byproduct of my adventuring.

The fact of the matter is that a crafters time is spent crafting something to sell. So for every "encounter" a crafter has they are earning money. Whereas while adventuring you have to split everything with 6 other people.

While were on that thread of thought, people dont come up to a level 30 adventurer and ask them to kill something for a drop, but people will go up to a crafter and ask them to make them something. (they have more demand)

The final and really only reason that matters is that the crafters end goal is to make something to sell and the adventureres and goal is to be able to kill mobs faster/heal more/take less damage.

[Samanthaa]

i got a lvl 15 Ranger with 50s ish and a lvl 14 Nec with around the same so add both together i got 1gp :D

[Tkonpk]

You make it sound as if you cannot be a crafter... or only THEY have money.

[J Hoyt]

19 Paladin, 1.3 gold and it took me a while. I haven't spent much. Most of my gear was either purchased a long time ago or given to me by higher level guild mates.

You are kidding right. Ya sure crafters have lots of money, but you have to think and figure out where it comes from. They sell the stuff they make to adventurers for probally close to 85% of their income. I can easily kill mobs for much more money faster then a crafter can get for WO at my level.

And I am and filthy rich adventurer and proud of it. Loots the mobs sells the loots to people that will gladly give me moneys for my loots.

wow oh wow oh wow

You have never crafted in this game yet have you? lol!

Do you realize how much money we get per work order?? Do you really know? Because if you really knew, you would vomit over the amount of money we get for the work we do. It's a trivial amount of money.

You get twice to three times more money adventuring EASY versus crafting. Your assessment of crafters is horribly wrong.

Im a lvl 35 Carpenter right now and I am financially comfortable. HOWEVER, I am comfortable, because I spent three weeks three hours a day doing nothing but standing in one spot in front of a table and clicking my mouse 173 times per recipe order. I did this about 23 times per lvl (increased about 7 more per lvl) until I reached lvl 35.

No macros, no easy way, nothing. You do the math. You figure out how many damn times my right index finger clickety clicked that mouse. It made SWG crafting feel like sitting on a front porch sipping on lemonade.

Crafters are poor for the first 25 lvls unless you are an outfitter making bags or got lucky and found some rare recipe for low lvl armor. But for the most part, we sit around doing WorK Orders to increase our xp and making 60 copper per order (thats when your lvl 20 and grade A)

So don't be thinking we're running around with pockets of gold lining our coffs. Even if we do, we worked our asses off to get there. Just remember that the next time you want to have someone some make you a large boat or house. Think about the weeks and months that crafter did for meaningless xp to even get to where he is now.
