Shopping Strategies

Gold Management

Sources of Gold:

1. Battle rewards - 500-2,000G per battle
2. Treasure chests - 1,000-5,000G per chest
3. Money items - Sell Mithril (5,000G), Gold Axe (4,000G)
4. Don’t waste - Avoid unnecessary purchases

Priority System

Tier 1 (Always Buy First):

• Weapons for damage dealers (Ash, Fighters, Archers)
• Mage Gems (15-30 total for Trials)
• Arkstaffs for mages (critical for spell power)

Tier 2 (Buy Next):

• Armor for front-line tanks (Knights)
• Life Orbs (3-5 minimum)
• Robes for mages

Tier 3 (If Gold Permits):

• Helms for everyone
• Holy H2O (party healing)
• Attack items (usually not worth it)

Budget Planning

Chapter 1-2: ~5,000G needed

• Basic equipment upgrades
• Initial Herb/Elixir stock

Chapter 3-4: ~20,000G needed

• Item stockpiling
• Begin Mage Gem collection

Chapter 5: ~60,000G needed

• Major equipment upgrade (Village 5)
• Heavy Mage Gem stocking (Village 4)

Chapter 6: ~200,000G needed

• Final equipment (Village 7) - ~165,000G
• Final item stock - ~35,000G

Total Game: ~285,000G needed for optimal play

Money-Saving Tips

What NOT to Buy:

• Attack items (Fire Gem, Mood Ring, Aura Gem) - Spells better
• Duplicate equipment - One of each type sufficient
• Low-tier equipment late - Don’t buy Village 2 gear in Chapter 5
• Armor class weapons (Spears) - Never make Armor units

Cost-Effective Choices:

• Buy Herbs over Megaherbs early (cost-effective)
• Buy Mage Gems late (need them most for Trials)
• Share equipment - Rotate between characters
• Sell money items immediately (Mithril, Gold Axe, Bag of Coin)

Class Advancement Shopping

Level 10 Advancement:

• New class = free basic equipment automatically
• Don’t need to buy immediately
• Wait until next village (better gear)

Level 20 Advancement:

• Same free equipment benefit
• Usually happens near Village 5-6
• Major shopping opportunity
