How do you handle your gold?

[Frojax]

It all gets spent on skills at the moment, mounts at 30? Hah, luxury!

It really depends on what is going on. My level 75 dks each have almost 2k each on them right now but that is only because I have nothing to spend gold on. At 80 I will start gearing one of them and get him an epic flyer they will probably go down to 40g each, enough to do repairs if needed.

If you are asking about loot in general I loot with the main and dump everything on the alts when his bags get full. Greens are sent to my enchanter to be DE'd, blues and other valuables are sent to a bank character to be stored or sold.

Other then training and mounts I never buy anything until I hit the level cap. All there really is worth buying is a couple epics for each class/build and your raid consumables even at 80.

I don't even start looting until the mid-late 50s so yeah, mounts at 30 only if you already have the gold on your main. Most people are going to have at least one character they can use to get mount money before they start boxing, you have to be some kind of EQ reject with more money then sense to start boxing a bunch of characters having never even tried playing the game ;)

I disagree, I know a few people who have started wow as boxers because of forums like these and articles done on boxers. Most of them haven't even played EQ.

All toons put all gold except 20 gold into the bank, and they rarely spend it.

Repairs are from the guild bank.

Only one toon - GM - can take more than 75g per day, but all can take 250 items from the bank daily.

When toons are near a training level ding, I don't deposit, so they have funds for it - and if they run short, the guild bank pays for it. 75g covers that, usually.

I rarely buy from the AH, so it works, and I only have to worry about auctions on one toon.

Don't you trust your slaves or something lol?

I've got one trading char which's used to sell blues and boe epics to the ah. Gold from selling goes back to my main. A 2nd low char is used as bank for the stuff often used to high level profession skills (fire, ice, water in their variations for example).

My chars have all professions and everyone stores the stuff used for his profession by itself. So my tailor holds all cloth, the green non soulbound things goes directly after every run to the enchanter and he stores the dissed stuff.

Gold is hold on all chars (I've only one team (5x80)). If one needs to buy anything and has not enough money, he gets it from the other chars. So it doesn't matter who has the gold actually in his bag. It's one team and all gold belongs to all chars. If one becomes more powerfull through buying something, the whole team becomes better.

Maybe I've to say that my team is in a raiding guild. I played in this guild solo for a long time, so they accept my team also when i'm not raiding anymore since I've started to box.

I used to try and consolodate, but at this point it's a pain in the butt. I know I have about 7k on my alliance AH mule {I don't even PLAY alliance, but with a crappy server balance, some stuff is just worth buying and xfaction transferring}. My boxers all have about 2k per slave, my mains have somewhere between 3-5k on each. My abandoned alts all probably have about 200-500g each and my horde AH lacky has about 50k right now.

I should probably move it all to one place, but I never remember too. It's easier just to have the money if I need it and not worry about it otherwise. It gets kind of annoying to have to keep swapping to another toon to fish crap out of the bank for alts {I am guilded so I don't have full access to the guild bank on all my toons, only on one, as a safety precaution}. I've got enough to micromanage with tradeskills, reagents, etc, I'll pass on micromanaging my cash too ;)

Once I formed my own guild, I pretty much dumped everything into it. Anything that is not soulbound goes into the bank, and all gold goes into the bank, except for 100 gold for each character. How did I manage my character's gold before this? I didn't! And I didn't realize how much better it is to have it all in one place until I started using the guild bank. When you have every available profession, a guild bank is a godsend. Especially now, with so many crafting professions dependent on the same gathering professions and so much crossover. I don't have to try and figure out who has what materials... they're all in the bank!

I do the exact same thing. Makes life so much easier to keep track of your accounting by just looking at how much gold you have to spend than to count it up on every character.
