Investing my money?

Where can I invest my money? I mean, I don't buy weapons, armor, potions and stuff, I just use what I find, so is there a smart way of using this 80k I've earned through the game (I don't have any expansions)?

Well

I always buy more bags. You can never have too many bags.

You'll need money to upgrade your weapond at the blacksmith - if tou choose to. Also, you need to pay for services at the brothels:laugh:

OK, I'm doing Chapter 3 now (I think so: I'm in Port Llast and trying to find the cult that started the plague in Neverwinter), and I need to find:

-the blacksmith
-someone who can sell me more Bags of Holding (found them in the Green Griphon Inn, but there's only one; maybe it will be available again after some time?)
-(optionally) a brothel

The next blacksmith is at Beorunna's Well in Chap 3. There's a Drinking House there also you can spend some $$ to loosen the tongue of a witness of a side quest. There are also a few characters I came across that I paid to get info. I found some bags at merchants and a few on corpses - still can't get the smell out of those.

Thanx, Lightning.

I'm at Chapter 3 now and the prices here are draconian!!
I gave 180k just for armor and a cloak!!
Now I have to save money!!

Inflation is hell!!:speech::speech: Fortunately, the items you find are worth more $$. Also, I found you needed to hold on to the Ironwood and Adamantite from chap 1 if you want to use some for upgrading your weapons. I never found any ironwood or adamantite after chap 1.

He he...

So I guessed well when I kept those thing all the way from chapter 1...

And enemies here are very tough!! With top owning equipment from previous chapter I can now barely save my life!!

Also I found and bought some bags of holding, so I won't need them at all...

Man this is one BIG and LONG game... It's better that way, I guess... I hate short games...

The only thing that helped me was to fight the areas closest to Beronna's Well before going on to areas further away. Hopefully this will let you level up. Also, I found I need to know what Amulets, Rings and belts work best against each enemy. If I get it right, the foes sometimes barely touch me. I also try to get just close enough for one enemy to come at me, it's easier to fight them one at a time. I had a hard time with mummies until I got the belt that grants immunity to disease - encircling scale belt I think. The game is long but addictive - it drives me crazy when I think "I'll just clear this one area" and a couple hours later I'm still at it.

Yes that's exactly why I'm playing it now - 6 years after it's out! There's always something new... Haven't played it the whole time, though...
