Well, this is a thread where we poor players (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif) can rant about our poorness.
Started from an idea of nobody_xxx and approved by me, izpekopon and LOL50015

This thread is intended for making the world know about your poorness, and to get useful help to help you refraining from turning it into misery.
Some charity giveaways may follow randomly.

Please note: giveaways may follow randomly, aka they haven't to happen, but they could happen.
Beggars can't be choosers. So avoid asking too much for one. It's annoying.
Everyone should always spend one's own money for oneself first, and then decide (if) to share.

poverty threshold?

In case of doubt, just give money to poor players (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif)

props to you, and welcome to misery (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif)

Also approve the idea!!! (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (Or should I cry!? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/anime_cry.gif) (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif) )

poverty threshold?

In my opinion, anything below 3m is poverty (I could only get above once, and for a few minutes (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) ).

Damn rich folk like you don't know what poverty is.

I say anything below 40k is poverty.
That's when level 5 on Archaeologist is nothing more than a pipe dream.

That's when you yearn for an energy drink just so you can buy a few measly crystals to help your army of 2 monsters get the will to soldier on.

That's when you use a calculator to figure how many moldy health draughts you can buy to fight just one battle and die miserably on the next to the last round.

3m.... (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) You rich folk have no clue. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

if 40k is the threshold, then not even newbies qualify as poors.

if it is 3M, well... already reasonable

if it is 3M, well... already reasonable

If that is the threshold gold star members definitely should not be a part of the club (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

i meant 'already reasonable' for some people. i didn't say who (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Ahh come on... You remember the day every credit went to training.

When you would watch every round to see if you were up to 146,890 credits to get a "6/20".
And as soon as you got there.... boom!... you were back down to 126 credits only to yearn for "7/20" for a mere 218,388 credits.

Yeah... you remember. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Now "that's" poverty!

Finally, a place where I feel at home! Where do I sign up?

Poverty is when one single piece of equipment is worth ten time your budget.
Poverty is when you are close to lv 400 and you haven't even 1m credits.
Poverty is when you want to do something and you don't have the funds.
Misery is bad (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif)

I'm really feeling the poverty at the moment, currently spending every single credit on soul shards so I can horde them for future soulboundings for my Exquisite Shade Armor of the Arcanist set

I don't even have the credits to train any skills at the moment and every arena I do goes directly towards this little project...

THE STRUGGLE IS REAL AND IT HURTS
Here's a picture that accurately conveys how I feel about all of this

I think reasonable, after all, everything is very expensive in this game (a single unit may not, but we need several to upgrade). It is a value that gives to survive from day to day, but you can not invest high in a single item.

So I'll try to improve my idea ::

below 1m ---> very poor
between 1m and 3m ---> poor
between 3m and 10m ---> middle class (ranging from low to high)
between 10m and 30m ---> rich
above 30m ---> very rich

And this only in terms of credits (excluding hath and GP).

I am also not considering amounts already invested in upgrade, purchase of equipment, training and perks hath purchased.

What makes you so into Arcainist armour? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

I have this if you're interested

I'm making my character into a hybrid fighter with my Ethereal Wakizashi of the Battlecaster and my Buckler of the Battlecaster. I mainly only use supportive magic and when I soulbound the complete Arcanist set in the future I'll be unstoppable.

Arcanist armor gives a boost to magic in Wisdom, intellegence, and Accuracy and has reduced interference letting me get the most out of my "BattleMage" hybrid class

Thanks for the offer but I already have the armor, just have to level up and soulbound it but that will require a large amount of soul shards, which means i require a large sum of credits.

actually not. given their effect i did never spen money on useless trainings - even if my levels are still a bit higher than many people that keep dropping Legs and Peerless.
and even less, i never spent money that i didn't have. i try to help people by offering them loans when needed but i never had to resort to a loan myself, afair

allow me to remember you had something like 10M in your hands a couple of days ago... did you already spend them? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif)

i strongly suggest you to stick with Leather of Protection until you'll hit a level good enough to switch to Power armors. the lack of Piercing mitigation can be a pain at your level.
but if you really want to go through this path, PM me if interested in this piece

log scale, huh? however i'd raise such thresholds. it may seem that 30M is a big amount, but it may be barely enough to cover a warbid or a Gold Star - after that you'll be bankrupt again, with the first case being way worse than the latter
