Poll: How rich/poor are you?

My goldfind barbarian's (

Frenzy/

Berserk) mercenary is a

Frenzy barb with double Last Wish because it's more convenient to have lvl 34 might aura from the get-go than hoping Emilio would trigger his before I'm done with the

Travincal run.

@davme_mcreg

He's nigh unkillable. High defense, 90% fire res (

Guardian Angel), tons of life and life leech from

Crown of Thieves.

Oh so good. I usually just leave him dead when I do my trav

Terror runs

Best item i've dropped is a

Jah rune, but got all my GG items via trading.

Probably worth around 200 bers

Found a

Vex today, so by the logic of this post I'm rich with that alone...yay...

If I had to recategorize, would do :
- Poor : nothing above

Ist
- Intermediate : overall stuff value is below 1

Ber
- Wealthy : overall stuff value is between 1 and 3

Ber
- Super Rich : overall stuff value is above 3

Ber

Poor would be mostly non traders, Intermediate are trying to reach higher end stuff (HoTo / Enigma / Grief...) but are not there yet, Wealthy would have most of their needed stuff without being full optimized, Super Rich are optimizing their slots wit 40+ life charms

But that would be my way to see it

I got

El-

Zod rune alphabeth, Enigma (runes are ready,just waiting for a better

Sacred Armor),Chains of Honor, Immortal set (good roll) ,all of the barbarian helms (good rolls),sword collection (good rolls uniques and rune words) ,cool charms,classic uniques mara,soj etc. and finally lost my excitement for the game

I know it’s all relative, but to me the range would have to widen substantially. My lightning sorc alone is probably worth 8-10

Ber. I also use a stacked smiter, Infinity spearzon, and

Berserk barb. Yet I feel middle class with only two enigmas and one self found griffon to share amongst them. Also no where near charm optimization… the cost of that seems astronomical. I have a few

Jah,

Sur,

Lo,

Ohm, etc lying around, but couldn’t make Last Wish on a whim without some more hard farming hours. Anyway, I imagine the gap between wealthy and ultra wealthy to be large.

I agree with all this. I think there should be an additional category of "Mega Wealthy (yacht-owning billionaire level): running dual Last Wish on their merc, etc." xD

You will get there if you keep playing, slowly but surely!

indeed. that's why i began p8 journey on single. I don't have the patience to start capitalizing my stuff/assess put on sale etc, too much hassle for me. for just getting to that god mode(if at all possible in this crazy game, but that's the fun of it)

Ah yeah you already do that ! ^^

But I don't collect runes, I always turn them into items or RWs. I have fully equipped 6 different char and 7th is on the way. Plus some HRs to gear new one. All NL.

Agree with this definition so I’ll fall somewhere in Wealthy

I know this is just a game, but the Wealth distribution does mirror the real world in a way - massive inequality, with many poor players struggling to survive, and you have a small percentile running around with perfect rolls, optimizing GG charms

This guy gave me a

Jah to make my first and only Enigma, that was a private joke. Still have on my todo list to give it back when I get my hands on one.
