Question of the Week - Insurance Money

Question of the Week - Sept. 27

Since Mondain's Legacy has come out, how much insurance money have you burned through?

**Ally** · 27-09-2005, 08:57 AM

Hehe I voted under 50k. I've only done one peerless and died just once. Give me a couple more days to finish up training my char and then I'll be losing more gold for sure

What about those people who play Siege, (no, I don't play there anymore). They don't have an option in your poll...la

27-09-2005, 09:52 AM

I said none, but not because I don't hunt. On Siege, insurance doesn't exist, and on my proddy characters I don't insure anything. Not a matter of principal, just never remember to insure new items. :cheesy:

Thradia · 27-09-2005, 09:55 AM

If you play on Siege then obviously it does not matter how much money you spent now does it? And therefore, no real reason for you to vote.

This was to give a good idea on how much people have been out hunting and using insurance on production shards. It's just for fun, don't nitpick!

I answered 100 to 500k. I've been out a lot. Now I don't insure everything if I am with people...or I don't wear my favorite armor because I waste too much dying as a mage!

Anne Nomilly · 27-09-2005, 10:20 AM

Well, I voted over 500K. I know in one weekend I lost about 250K so I'm pretty sure it's up there by now. LMAO Considering that #1 we do the Catskills Hunt Nite each week and #2 I'm Legendary at Dying........:grin:

I put under 50k pretty much because when I go out with my alliance, I am kinda the "have to stay alive so I can rez everyone" guy. Most of the places I have gone have more or less been suicide missions for my pets, when they die, come back rez, and send back in for the fight. Some of the alliance members have gone completely broke during these last few weeks, I am guessing in the millions. Now the Umbra invasion on Baja, thats a different story, Those ancient LLs can be pretty tough. My pali was doin great there this weekend, but like an idiot, I went red Sunday while defending a guild member I was sparring with and have missed most of the action with that character, and have been reduced to my tamer, which is the better of the 2 characters, but just not as fun anymore.

*chuckles* I can't wait til Kimi gets back here.. you're gonna bust a gut when you hear how much she spends on insurance... hehe

Thradia · 27-09-2005, 11:03 AM

What I find the hardest right now is that our guild will get a lot of loot...but we'll run into something in a dungeon that ends up killing us all, so we spend 20 mins just trying to get back in and get our bodies...

Sometimes it doesn't work and we have to abandon our loot and whatever we had on our bodies

So I never make up my insurance anymore. Then I have to go mindlessly kill ants to make it back! lol

I have participated in about seven dreadhorns, tried for two hours to get keys in the citidel and in the last few weeks have only died a few times. This is not cause I stay away from the fights either, it is cause I have people who look out for me. At dreadhorn, I go on my tamer who has peace taming magery, no eval or med skills. I am there to keep the pets alive as long as i can and not worry about myself. My tamer, mind you, runs with 70 70 70 70 75 resist, bracelet of health and usually ring of the vile to help me stay alive that little bit longer. On my mage, the only time I have died is when I ran out of regs and still spend all my efforts healing my party. (about 70% lrc on suit, so not reliable but eventually gets spells off) So cheers to Kira, Thor, El-, and the others who know that some people are worth keeping alive. *grins* So my insurance costs have been right about 20k sence uoml went live. Gold I have banked sence UOML (without selling anything I have gotten) is somewhere around 1.25 mil.

Keven1 · 27-09-2005, 11:57 AM

over 2 million would have been more accurate for me

Lady Kyo · 27-09-2005, 12:02 PM

I might have to auction myself off in order to start paying for the insurance...
