power lvl is like 200k/ hour (for most high lvl character/people charges) and in 20 hours ur alread @ lvl 50X. get the picture?
OK, so save the 20 mil, spend 5 mil on power leveling up to lvl 5x, and you're left with 15 mil. Once you get to lvl 5x and finally get off your horse, you're standing there in lvl 1x equipment. How much decent lvl 5x gear can you get for only 15 mil?
You'll blaze through those 50 levels without earning much of any money. I'm sure most power levelers are greedy and don't turn on item auto share.
I'd rather invest the 20 million, grind myself (which will take longer of course), gather tons of gold and drops and alchemy items I can sell as elements... and end up lvl 5x with a lot more cash on hand. Sell the 20 mil SOS when I'm done with it, and afford a lvl 64 SOS weapon later.
Edit: It's hard to know what different weapons are worth anymore. I usually see 52+3 SOS blades on Venice for sale anywhere around 22-30 mil depending on blues. Some are even higher if they are full 100% blue or +5 or more. However, I've been trying to sell my 52+3 SOS blade within that range of prices, and all I've gotten was a few offers of 12-15 million.I did make it +4 yesterday though, and I don't know if the 22-30 mil blades I see in the network actually sell or not.
lol use the 20mil and plvling to 64.
then farm the str tabs and sell the lucky stones this events bringing.
get 8d npc gears, theres a couple in the stall network at 300-500k a piece for 1st tier.
farm tabs in caves. By the time you hit 72, you'll have a ridiculous amount of str tabs and challenge, sell those.
ive gotten about 40 str tabs, 60 int tabs, etc so it shoudlnt be too bad.
reach 100mil, buy a decent set with minimal blues and blue it up from there.
not to mention the amount of prot elixers you get at caves ":S
exactly. the other guys just dont get the bigger picture. lol

Oh I get the bigger picture. I can still do what MrFudge is saying, namely "farming tabs and lucky stones to sell and make 100 mil or so to buy a decent set with minimal blues and blue it up from there," after I hand grind myself up to lvl 64 (earning gold all along the way). So basically, either:
1.) power level to 64 (probably earning almost zero gold) then play "catch-up" by farming str tabs, elixirs, lucky stones... to afford a decent 8D set, or
2.) Hand grind to lvl 64 (with the potential to earn a TON of gold along the way using MrFudge's tab/elixir/stone farming method for 64 levels) and then continuing to earn even more gold after you hit 64 by continuing MrFudge's farming technique.
Option 1 will get you to 64 a lot faster, but you're left with a lvl 64 character that you have almost zero actual experience with, and have to play 'catch-up' to afford anything useful.
Option 2 takes a lot longer, but you get the benefit of knowing your character, having a lot of experience (and fun) with it along the way, and potentially possessing a lot more gold and/or equipment and other resources that you can use.
I'd hate to plvl to 64 then have to 'catch-up' just to afford a decent SOS blade. I like having SOS blades at every degree
