Yeah...the 1% crowd probably had like 4-10 million in platinum a few years back. I wouldn't be surprised if the top 1% is now like 10-15 million, assuming they've been playing consistently for like a decade.

I remember Nordenwatch got super pissed when one of the GMs announced his character Teleportation he had the most platinum on him of any character, as people started to bug him a lot.

Now that you mentioned Nordenwatch (think he got banned for RMT but he's still pretty rich)

he got a nice guide that I found that shows how to get balls rich

Why do people farm plat just to get a high pixel number?

For me the short answer is that money equals gear that I can't acquire any other way.

Also, like most things in EQ, it is addicting...I've never lost the adrenaline rush of clicking on a named corpse (or even a trash mob with a 1/1000 chance to drop a rare item) to check its loot.

I am guessing that it is the same pattern of neurons that fire when a gambling addict pulls the lever on a slot machine.

Depending on your perspective this is either super unhealthy or a weird way of entertaining yourself.

PUGs at cash camps is the easiest way to do it while having the most fun. The trick is sell it and don't spend it. This game can be beat with a cracked staff. No reason to sink your loot into undroppable garbage you can just quest for yourself anyway. Twinking an alt? A pair of 5/55 rings and a 100p weapon will get you to level 50. After level 50 your alt is capable enough to loot the upgrades and make you richer. Play the game and don't worry about 500k and you'll have more than you care to spend.

Farm with just 1 or 2 characters, or play the EC game... if you have as many characters as me your going to be broke forever

Plenty of people RMT considering people get banned for it all the time. Wouldn’t be surprised if some people have been getting away with it for years by being smart.
