Why i dont pick up gold and stay poor

Post by Hasbin »

1. I aoe grind to the extreme even got autumn wind ( aka shit bow skill)

Image

Image

2. Dont even wanna bother picking up this much gold when i constantly mob

Image

3. Its a big waste of time. I would lvl 3 times slower.

Thats why i always gotta beg for money from clan.
Cause drops wont do the thing. Cause i gotta get new gear, cause i lvl superfast :)
And im overpowered at green mobs cause im fully farmed.

Should i start picking ?

PS: dont mind the bad graphics, my onboard grafix suk

the way is see it, you really should get a monkey for like a month and you will be rich. Look at all that gold xD. You dont have to buy clock each month you can also skip a month and lvl without a monkey imo monkey is more usefull then wings ;)

The only thing i got from the item mall is a grabbing pet, the rest isnt really worth it.

I was losing so much money by not picking up my trash.

What also works is getting into a shared party with your guildies, if they have a grabbing pet you dont have to worry about the drops, and its mad fun :)

You will probably make a few million more with a monkey and allow yourself for alot more affective grinding.


Well it's your decision:
ticket+monkey
monkey only
ticket only
or nothing at all.

I did the same thing when I was grinding in the power earth ghost rooms before i bought my bunny, although I would pick up the gold in intervals most often when the mob spawns die down.

If you don't wanna get a grabber try balancing out your gold loss by stalling stuff like elements, stones, equipment, etc.

I am for my current lvl.

Guess ill get a grabber, but only during vacations.
And im gonna gap a bit. Cause keeping up with gear makes me poor, not the pot money. And if i dont get drops, i can be broke to buy pots :p.

But it would take longer to grind the same xp.
And time is money lol :D
So i guess its even

PS: putting the grab on spacebar helps a bit, thx for advise, only annoying to buff cause it picks up :p
