Been buying mats for powerlevel 1-450 JC on 4 of my characters, wich is time-consuming AND expensive...Up to 20k gold so far, and still 5-7k left for mats needed. Expensive on my server.

Alltho, it's not like I'm having goldproblems, since I'm also farming abyss crystals normal toc, making 1000g an hour while watching tv.
