Larian Studios Forums Divine Divinity (English) General all this money and no place to spend it

is it just me or is there hardly any place to buy anything of real value? suggestions pls? i wouldnt say im terribly far in the game yet im about lvl 24 with a few decent magic items (but nothing too special) and ive got close to 100k thats burning such a hole in my pocket <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> and i dont really feel like droping 40k on a damn charm <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" />. do i need to go to vert to find a high end shop or is there some out-of-the-way shop that i need to find?

There is Geoff and Gero in the Merchant's Quaters of Rivertown. There is a bow dealer in the Elven Village in the Dark Forest. And later in the game there is Kroxy in the Wastelands with lots of Gold Charms.

ya i have that market under my thumb nothing too good really comes up.. maybe my gear is better then im thinking, o well guess ill have to just wade through more baddies till somthing cool drops *sigh*

I rarely found much worth purchasing. There was some nice armour occasionally and a good cross-bow or two, but you'll end up spending a lot on Charms at the end of the game. I only used the Enchant Weapon skill at the end of the game because there were so many charms available.

ya its sorta like d2 with runes.. you tend to not use runes till your well in the game, sux. and its sorta pointless to invest a bunch of money on chrms when you cant find anything worthy to put them in

You're not terribly likely to find anything better once you reach the Wastelands. And even if you do, you'll have enough money to replace the Charms in the old item anyway!

I never relly bought a keeper either, the best stuff I found during the game. I know it's fun sometimes to save up and then buy something, but it's more rewarding to get it of an enemy's corpse <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" />

Yeah that is what I like about <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" />. The rewards

Strange--the shops near Ars Magincia, Corrina and Mpenzak in Verdistis, Grishka and that priest in the Dwarven Mines are plenty of good places to spend money. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mage.gif" alt="" />

True, but not once you have what you need. Their items don't get any better as the game progresses, unless it's by chance.
