What do you spend all your drakes on?

fable · Post by **fable** » Sat Aug 21, 2004 6:14 pm

This was prompted by the thread for making huge sums of drakes easily, quickly, in Morrowind. It has to be admitted, the game is ridiculously biased in this respect. Cheese everywhere makes it simple to amass huge fortunes in your first few levels, provided you're willing to 1) steal items, 2) make and sell potions, or 3) soul trap monsters.

But after a while you hit a dead end: all this gold, and few places to spend it. Where do *you* spend it, in fact? This thread should include both Morrowind/Tribunal/Bloodmoon resources and mods, if you use 'em.

I drop it in big piles in my house then go swimming in it.

I actually don't have that much moolah, after buying my latest enchantment. I've only got 83k or so. I spend it on travel, repair, and occasionally soul gems, but I rarely buy soul gems, and they are the only thing I buy from merchants. Enchantments and spells are where most of my cash goes.

Training and enchantments, mostly. Although occassionally I buy out an entire city's merchants (every last item) and dump the goods in front of creeper. It's funny, you'd think the city would go belly-up after having Nerevar buy out the stock of every merchant in town, but no ... it's still solvent, amazingly.

I spend my money on repairs since my character currently sucks as a do-it-yourselfer. I also spend it on travel since I'm impatient. But most goes to buying spells I need and don't need and to enchanting items. I'm a big fan of collecting Daedric weapons and then giving them constant enchantments such as waterbreathing and night-eye. But since Daedric weapons are heavy, you have to enchant all that exquisite clothing to constantly raise your strength. Or to constantly provide sanctuary, that's neat too.

I spend it on buying maybe one or two alchemy ingredients for making useful potions, also, I spend it on training and spells. But I don't have alot now, only about 14K

For me, it's repairs at the moment, though as my youngish PC spreads out I expect to buy more from shop mods (such as the Suran Archery Tradehouse). I'm hoping, too, that one particular modder will finish an alchemy sorter and shop for buying it, soon. In which case I'll install one of the two or three multi-house selling mods, purchase a largely unfinished home, then decorate it myself using the furniture shop mods I've got installed, now.

Spellmaking is fun.

Buy new spells and then combine them. Gives more effective spells.

Making enchanted items for fun and buying every expensive item they have out there.
