Collecting Platinum Coins

[kasummi]

You know all the game you're collecting coins for rewards - bronze, silver, gold. You get 10 - 20 coins and get a reward for it. When you reach level 45 you get into a new area where you can collect Platinum coins. Unfortunately when you check how much you need for a reward you'll be quite surprised:

100 - for blue armor item
200 - for blue weapon item
1000 - for yellow armor item
2000 - for yellow weapon item

To get a coin you need to kill 54 mobs. Personally I'm doing it for about 30-40 minutes. So how's it possible to collect 100 coins? And 2000?

Actually it's not easy but not impossible. First when you get the reward - the coin, the NPC is also giving you one or more Demon/Angelic Eyes. Most of the time it gives you 2 eyes, but you can also get 1 or 3.

Those eyes you can exchange for additional coins + an amount of money. To do so, you need to find the shugo that wants them. From my experience I'm getting about 8-9 additinal coins per turn.

In addition while killing the mobs you're getting money, grey items (which you're selling) and sometimes additional white/green items you can also sell. You can make about 100000-300000 kinah per turn, depending of the luck you have.

Those money you can spend for additional Platinum Coins bought from the broker. They are sold for about 15000 there. Let's say you have 150000, you can buy additional 10 coins.

So lets summarize:
1 coin + 9 coins from the eyes + 10 coins from the broker = 20 coins per turn.
2000 / 20 = 100 turns * 30 minutes = 50 hours gameplay

Not that bad!
