You don't actually need very much gold at all, nor is it really that useful.

Still, it's easy enough to buy every single magical item in the game and still be swimming with gold without doing any exploits.

Which is what my point was. Gold in the game is overabundant to the point of making any actual attempts to capitalize on it seem redundant, let alone trying to actually exploit it.

Like, even without being a loot goblin, I'm usually sitting with 10k+ gold, plus about 30k gold worth of junk that no vendor has any gold left to trade with me in my inventory (Unless I specifically want to force resets just to sell my crap)... Alongside 100's of potions and elixirs and scrolls that I'm saving for "Later"...
