    Default Save gold for Humania or use it to get ready for Humania?

    I have 4.2M from selling my crafted lilith wand set several weeks back. With it, I can buy back a crafted Lilith wand set and buy a new crafted longbow set for my bird. My problem is wether or not I should save that gold to get Humania gear or to get my Mage and bird fully equipped to level to regular cap/farm/elite cap until I can get them sets. Buying both crafted sets would leave me with 800k. I'm guessing single pieces of set gear in Humania would run me for all the gold I have now.

    Should I save the gold for Humania? Or take my chances farming?

    Do you need more than one farmer?

    Depends on what your plans are bro.

    Do you plan in farming a lot? Do you have enough free time to dedicate to farming? If you buy the sets, you'll have less gold to go towards new gear which will require for you to farm more than you may like. Are you one of those people that has to have the newest shiniest gear ASAP? Can you see yourself regretting that you bought the sets in the future?

    Me personally, I would go with cheap gear, and consider buying a crafted set the day or day before Humania is released when they're lower. There's a lot of questions, and personal opinions I can add but I think you get the gist of it. If there's any doubt, wait it out (unintentional rhyme). Prices usually drop, but PL's economy is a lot less predictable than before, so no one can guarantee anything. Just remember, any fang items you buy now will become outdated fairly soon.

    I'm with Mysticaldream: save your gold until Humania is released. Going by the past couple of releases, there will be a short window around Humania's release where the prices of Fang sets will take a sizable dip. If you time it right, you can pick up crafted Fang sets cheapter than if you buy them now.

    Going by history again, crafted Fang sets should be good enough to hit 70/71. Hopefully by then you'll have gotten enough pinks/gold for you to switch to Humania sets.

    If gold is a concern, I'd sell all now and rebuy the sets when humania arrives. That will most probably save you more than a mil. You could also go for the cheaper pinks and safe even more gold, so you'll be able to obtain your lv70 items quicker.

    Something to consider is that, for the next caps, you could save up more gold in between them. I'd suggest farming more with your guildies, so you wouldn't have to worry about choices like this anymore.

    There might be a 3rd, more guild-related solution to your 'problems', I'll PM you the details in a bit

    Save your money, you will probably regret it when humania comes out.

    Default Save gold for Humania or use it to get ready for Humania?

    Ok, people say these fang sets are going cheaper... They are it's great you already sold em before this huge drop in prices. I'd use cheap non set items if you need for humania. Oh and I wouldn't spend all right away hitting the coolest looking weapons ect in the cs for a few mil I'd lvl up a bit first, farm* these humania items are going to go down in prices. So I'd save the money. * I actually won't have to do any farming for my bears weapons but I'll do a bit :-).

    Personally, go with the cheap gear, and buy crafted after Humania comes out. I sold all my gear, and will re buy after the update. That also depends on what the stats look like on the new gear. 66 Humania gear may be very comparable to a crafted set.

    The Lilith set you see me with is a friends. Lol. I don't wanna sell his gear. Haha!!

    I'd wait until humania is out to buy any fang (prices will keep falling ), & use one set to farm while the drop rates are high. That way you don't spend all your money, and have an effective set for new map. Then when things calm down you will know what new sets exist and know if you want any.

    If youre a plat leveler, like me, I'd say save your gold, and farm humania with cheap fang gear. If you don't use plat to farm/level, I'd do what others suggested and wait till humsnia comes, and buy a crafted fang set.

    This is what I did, sold my sets, bought cheap fang gear and it's rather good, I can PvE nicely so I don't have to worry about it.

    Another option: Buy Nuri Hallows equips for cheap and use them in Humania (they're pretty strong even in mt fang). When prices drop for Mt Fang, buy Fang sets for humania , or if you're lucky enough to get drops in Humania then that's most ideal for you anyway.

    I'm going to use cheap drops in fang in Humania until I get drops in Humania. Then I'll switch to those. If I get good drops I'll switch to those. If I haven't gotten the complete set by the time the gear prices steady, then I'll just buy the gear if I have enough gold and if it's not super expensive.

    Talking about Humania drops reminds me of xp, drops, and runs and all that so I can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Just use the Wand Set.
    The one that says:
    Chirptera Wand of the Fang
    Robe of the Fang
    Bracer of the Fang


    Etc.

    Just the cheap pinks. Costs around 100k for a full set and I've always PvPed with those and owned Birds with Full Crafted.

    Not too hard of a choice.
    Especially resounds when you notice I have more than one gold cap at my disposal, yet I do not bother to buy a fully crafted Lilith Wand Set and OP myself.
