    Default Should I...?

    I was thinking to myself today and came up with a question I can't seem to solve by myself.
    Should I level up 56-60 by just farming or should I blast through with platinum? I love farming but I just want to get to Nuri's already. Here's the thing: I get 10-20 dollars a week of free money I don't have anything else to do with. I could buy 75-165 (sometimes more.) platinum a week until I get to 60, which I guarantee I'll have by next monday. I also have another thing to consider: I have 72 PS3 games, almost all of which none of my family plays. If I took back each game that isn't touched, I'll have around 50-60 dollars, if not more, more that I could put towards platinum. Should I do this or does it seem stupid?
    Comments please?

    Ba patient and take your time, hopefully get some good drops on the way! =]
    That is what I would do at least, and it saves you 50/60 dollars!

    I'd spend the money. Then again, you're talking to a person who had to platinum restrain himself for a while.

    I would say wait definitely. 165(in one week) x 5 weeks. =825
    800 x 1 week =800. I don't know what to tell you, I go with 800 platinum but whatever floats your boat

    I would go the plat option but only spend what you can afford.

    A lot of people don't realise how much money they actually spend on this game.

    Im not sure are you lucky in game but i see that no matter how you play if no lucky at all.

    i use combo elix
    56lvl 83k xp and one pink = sewer queen staff
    56-60lvl nothing else than trash worthles pinks
    61lvl 100k xp and one pink = glyph autobow obe

    So i think im just immunity to get pinks and thats why hard to get sets becouse only how to get gold is liquid trash
    if u dont have hurry to get ur goal, take ur time and enjoy for play

    If it helps, I did 55-57 on gold purchased elixirs in hopes of getting good drops along the way, and to save money.
    With a good group, I ended up only spending $10-20 on plat from 57-60. If to want 61, that's a different story lol.
    Personally, I'm not going for it till a cap raise is announced. It'll save me a boatload of cash.

    Save the $$ for a couple weeks, then buy 2k plat when you have $90. You'll never have to buy plat again.

    To be honest, I'd wait a few weeks and buy a bigger plat pack. More bang for your buck.

    Opportunity cost , always

    You could have saved an hour doing the same work using a 4x, and spend the hour working at mcdonalds for 10 bucks. The real cost of you not using pots is huge - time has value.

    Very true. But working at McDonalds for 10 bucks is the same as spending the 10 bucks I already had.

    Working to get 10 bucks = earnings of 10

    Spending 10 bucks = expenses of 10

    The two are opposite, in one case you gain in the other case you lose
