HELP!!! **Might Have Spoilers**

Post by RetributorJr »

Hey, Guys. I need help with something, it is not the usual cry for help but here goes, I have way too much gold. I have 50,000+ and nothing to spend it on, I have been told that it is expensive to get things enchanted, but i am not yet in the arcane library. If anyone has any locations of where I can buy some good expensive stuff, will you let me know. :eek:

P.S. I am a level 9
Im am so BORED!!

Well it's not really that much you know, trust me. First houses can cost a pretty penny. Then check out the stuff in the Imp City but honestly I'd save it for enchanting and recharging your weapons (especially this) - it costs a pretty penny.
And He whispered to me in the darkness as we lay together, Tell Me where to touch you so that I can drive you insane; tell Me where to touch you to give you ultimate pleasure, tell Me where to touch you so that we will truly own each other. And I kissed Him softly and whispered back, Touch my mind.

50K won't seem like as much if you start dabbling in real estate. There are houses for sale in every city, and furninshing them usually costs as much or more than the house itself. Even if you're not into the eye candy factor you can store loot there that you want to keep but don't want to carry all the time, or just stash it temporarily if you don't feel like waiting until the stores open. Prices vary widely, but the mansion in Skingrad will run you well over 50K for the house and all the furnishings, for example.
Can the answer to this question be "No"?

THey are right about the realestate thing. I bought that house in Skingrad and itsw 40000 just for the house and there is alot of furniture and its expensive. I was all stoked when I had 50k but it lasted all af about 15 min when I decided to spend it. and most of that 15 min was looking for the house itself in skingrad. but there are always horses for sale the black ones cost me about 5k each. But agree with the others save some of that for enchanting items and recharging them once you get into the university. its sucks not being able to enchant for lack of cash.

It's a good thing to have a house, but don't waste money buying expensive. Buy the one on the Waterfront. Costs 2000. It's a one-room shack with a bed and a table. Spend some money on Storage, Kitchen and Dining areas to get yourself 2 chests of drawers, a chest, a kitchen cabinet and a set of shelves - plus assorted pots and cutlery. You can also get a Seating area in front of the fire, and wall hangings, but you don't need 'em.

You buy the House in the Market district - can't remember the name of the shop - and you get the furnishings from they guy who stands at the back of the Three Brothers shop.

In that case I would save up a bit for enchanting and recharging but also consider training. I have spent a small fortune on training. as far as buying weapons and armor this game doesnt seem to have the real unique pieces lit MW. so I dont know what to tell you about blowing cash in that direstion. I would say training and realestate come second to enchanting. but that is jsut my opinion.

I like the Skingrad house the best fully furnished with your own personal maid. If you feel like blowing thousands of gold elsewhere, the Chidinhal(spelling butchered that town name) is really nice too.

Just for fun, I will bribe EVERYONE in town as much as i can and then attack a guard. Watching townspeople fight guards is always a good laugh.

I have never tried that what do you need their disposition to be at for them to fight along side you?

Not too high, usually around 70-80 is enough.

If you have all of the upgrades for Frostcrag Spire, go there and use the Altar of Enchanting in the Main Area. You will still have to pay gold if you want to enchant something.
