What is most profitable way to pay the royalty's?

[C00lCucumber]

Hi folks,

i was wondering what the best way is to pay my royalty's for the gold i found on my claim.

It is on the OA claim where we need to pay 30% royalty's

In my opinion we have 3 ways to do it:

1. Pay in goldore
2. Pay in money
3. Pay in melted gold

What of the 3 option is the most profitable for us as players?
If i pay in goldore then the value is much lower then when we pay in melted gold so i think that option 3 isn't good enough. Now i was wondering if we pay in money witch price do then count? The price of goldore or the price of melted gold(goldbars)? There is a big difference in value so i think that it is an important thing.

Happy to hear your thoughts folks.


Keep digging and have fun and a nice sunday

Dont know the exact numbers at the blacksmith, but lets say 8% in loss, and 2% in fee. And lets say gold is selling at $1,200 an oz. Lets also say you mined 200oz that day.

Option 1. You mined 200oz, pay 30%, or 60oz. You smelt the other 140oz at a 10% loss to the blacksmith, leaving you with 126oz which you sell for $1,200 an oz at a total profit of $151,200

Option 2, You mined 200oz, Smelt it all, Leaving you with 180oz of gold. You sell that for $216000. You still have to pay for 60OZ of gold at $72,000. leaving you with a total profit of $144,000.

option 3, Can you even pay with melted gold?

Basically you always want to pay with the goldore. if your paying in money, your paying for that gold to smelted.

You are right about the melted gold. Just tried to pay with that but it doesn't work :-)

Agree always pay with gold, Money you lose out.

Buy the claim as soon as you are possible, and make your operation as efficient as you progress.
Working well for me.

I did the math a while back and it actually takes out the cost of smelting the gold if I remember correctly. When I paid with gold it was 30% on OA and when I paid with cash it was ~28%.

The best way is to not clean out gold unless you need it for operations until you have enough ozs/grams saved up to pay for the claim. Wait for night and clean up everything and then go buy the claim. Once you own it, you do not owe any royalties even though you paid for it with mined gold.

Lol, ok I suppose, if you want 300 buckets of concentrate lying around by the time you're done. And once you do buy Old Arnold you never need to buy another claim, just rent them then haul the concentrate to process it at OA - it effectively becomes rent-free OA gold. There are certainly ways to game the system if that's how you want to play...

Edit: paying the rent in un-smelted gold only though, is definitely the way to go. It's how they do it in the show, and is not gaming the system.
