    14 arcane rings (14 x 90 = 1,260)
    4 arcane mauls (4 x 20 = 80)
    3 arcane staves (3 x 30 = 90)
    1 arcane hooks (10) [yes, that is generous but I probably shorted the mauls so get over it]
    4 mythic razorbacks (4 x 20 = 80)
    6 Solid gold vanity sets (6 x 10 = 60)
    Roughly 100mil in assorted vanities and myth gear.
    We all know they have 1-5 arcane let's each (500)

    Grand total: 2,180,000,000 gold (probably, too late for this)
    Or, 128,235,294 each (when the net total is divided by 17)

    ---

    Fun Facts:

    •1% of that wealth is 21,800,000 gold.

    •Their net worth is equivalent to:
    -91 Samaels
    -1,557 Grimms
    -242,222 locked crates
    -3,114,286 Dearys

    •If you made 100k a day it would take 59 years and 265 days to make the same amount as their net wealth.
    -Or, 3 years and 188 days to make as much as one of them is worth (assuming all are worth the same amount).

    •Boom! We are poor.
    O.O

    I do believe the OP has effectively encouraged even more people to quit this game.


    That was the point of this thread right????

    On the other hand, the rich/poor divide in AL is very topical right now. The image and reactions to it might just show that more clearly than all the words about it in various other threads.

    I bought plat in the past to get some stuff and then the gold vanity and goblin event arrived in tandem as if to say uh no loser, this isn't the kind of game where some real money makes a ton of difference, it's way more like the real world. Which is fascinating considering it's all fantasy on the surface of it.

    That iseenoobs guy? I have this (unjustified) image of him as an angry fat 12 year old in a messy bedroom, stuffing his face and typing obscenities.

    I want great gear in game and access to cool stuff, but I really don't want stuff like the gold vanity, which now just makes me think spoilt brat - even though I have also seen decent people wearing it - no offence at all intended to anyone in the OP screenshot.

    Recent events make me look at freemium games more favourably, as well as renewing the search for good mobile f2p games that led me here in the first place. I actually have zero intention of ditching AL, but I reckon I need a standby game for weeks like the past one - when this forum was a whole lot more interesting than the game itself.

    Now i do agree with your very first paragraph about how a picture is worth a thousand words.
    However if you think even for a second, and i quote "this isnt the kind of game where some real money makes a ton of difference"
    Then i am afraid you have been hoodwinked

    I have no disdain or bad mojo towards anyone in the OP picture, but be aware that everyone in that picture has spent a small fortune of real money to have the items that they have. They certainly did not get those farming that i can assure you.

    That's not entirely true.

    I'll name the exceptions for this:

    • Alitarose - she's obtained all her items through farming.
    • Predator - he also has not spent much money on this game.
    • Musasun - same as Alitarose

    Zeus/Apollo i remember you in game and respect you as a player/person, but quite honestly after playing this game for a long time as a free player
    there is nothing you or anyone else could say too convince me that i am wrong.

    BTW dont you have some portals u are supposed to be jumping through

    Good luck winning that shard and egg, not that you need luck.

    PM Basketholic if you don't believe me that it can be done. It can be, sorry. I think Crow is another strong example of that as well.

    There's no need for the hostility. I was not in any way hostile to you.

    Do you need ANOTHER grammar lesson?

    Harassing Parth aside, you can become wealthy without buying plat. However, I will agree that the absolute richest players have bought plat. This is fair though, STS has to make money somehow. Even I "use" plat, I just choose to gain mine through free trials. I don't do the trials that force me to spend money (although I did try one but never received my plat) but I do this k some amount of platinum is required to play. Whether you use plat to open locks or for plat revives is up to your digression.

    Ps: He who uses a double negative is whom I will harass.
