Buying gear? Yes or no?

[Husyta]

Does we acquire new equipment doing quest and exploring enough or should I also be thinking about buying it from merchant? I don’t want to waste money

Equipment from quest in this game is not good, buy when you have money.

[Echsrick]

how is buying better things wasting money? for what else you want to use it?

[Yojo0o]

That's what the money is for, right?

[DragonSych]

just steal equip from merchants then

What do you mean waste money. What else are you going to spend it on? Skill books are a minor expense in the grand scheme of things. Gear is what most of my money goes to, and I still end up with tens of thousands of gold to spare.

In many games you can buy something from merchants for a lot of money and half later you can find something a lot of better on the ground

Yeah, 100% you want to be buying it. Every hour or every time you level up, whichever comes first, merchant inventories reset. You wanna check them every time as sometimes a good upgrade is hard to come by. Most quest rewards are vendor trash.

Buying gear frequently, and making sure my characters have optimized gear is a must for my playing style!
