seriously?

[joakim]

bought the bulging coin purse and it specifically says nothing is lost upon death. I had 5000 sen and suddenly i had to face the armored knight and died, lost half of my stuff. Not cool

You converted 1100 gold of yours into 1000 gold that you won't lose upon death. Any other money you're carrying will still be lost upon death. What were you expecting?

[CerN]

Bulging coin purse is worth 1000 sen, so you still have what you paid for.

[Bóbr D. Kurwa]

???? They convert 1100 into 1000 gold that you can use at any time. You'd have to buy 4 sepperate ones.

[joakim]

seems to half no matter what, now i only had 400 and was still reduced to 200 sen. Am I missing something?

its an item you sell or use, think of it as a piggy bank

Uh, yeah. I’m still not sure what you’re confused about

[joakim]

so its only good for one use or what?

You can buy coin purses to convert your money into usable cash items that you don't lose on death. You spent 1100 sen on an item that gives you 1000 sen on use, that won't be lost on death. You died and lost half the sen you didn't put into a purse, but that 1000 sen is still in your inventory.

It doesn't prevent you to lose money everytime, it's just "pay 1100 to keep 1000 in a bank", or "pay 1100 to get 1000 into an item instead of risking to lose it at your next death".

[Ashen]

Let's say you have 4000 sen, instead of risking losing half of 4000, you buy a Bulging Coin Purse to keep 1000 on you as an item you can use anytime that you won't lose upon death, but the other 2900 sen is still at risk unless you get other coin purses. The Bulging Coin Purse is 1100 sen but you actually get 1000 sen, think of the 100 (10% of 1000) as a fee. There is other coin purses for smaller amounts too.

[GODzilla]

Yep, that's the important part. That bulging coin ♥♥♥♥ now is AN ITEM in your inventory. Check it. This ITEM is worth 1000 sen when you SELL it. This ITEM is not lost upon death.

Buying coin purses converts the said amount of CHANGE (so to speak) into an ITEM.

In your example, if your aim was to saveguard all the 5000 sen you would have had to buy 5 coin purses, but for the price of 5500 sen because there is always a fee of 10 percent when transferring loose coin into coin purse items.

[joakim]

ok so the only way to retrieve the money is to sell the coin purse?

[GODzilla]

Exactly. Like taking your money to the bank. You always have to sell the ban...no wait. xD Just kidding, you're absolutely right.

yes, you're missing that the coin purse is now an item in your inventory that you don't lose when you die and gives you 1k coins upon use.

you dont have to sell it. You have to use it with needed
