What is the best/ideal PAY 2 WIN game if money was not a concern?

Tryptonite · October 2011

Just curious as to what you guys & gals think would be the most fun, best, ideal etc MMO game to play and PAY 2 WIN if the player had basically near unlimited personal funds or money was not an issue for them.

If you can provide details like the ideal class set-up, PVP or PVE scenario, pay2win items and strategies involved then please feel free to elaborate. And if there's a ballpark figure you can provide for the money involved for this epic set-up, go for it.

Note: I did not win the lottery or recently receive a generous windfall of any kind. This is more of a personal curiousity and daydreaming based on trying a few different F2P games over the past year and realizing there must be some WHALES in these games who spend a shit ton to be on top in these games.

Thanks,

I like Iron Realms business model. They let you spend money on your character and buy items to increase your health, increase your damage, but they are just little perks and not ground-breaking. Someone who doesn't spend any money has a good chance of killing someone who spends thousands of dollars if they know what they are doing. Its a very good balance. The best setups IMO would be

Priest class with artefact mace, ring of extra health sipping, and +strength gauntlets for mace damage

Best priest race is either Troll for big damage and best tanking in the game hands down, or you can go Rajamala which is the fastest race so your PvP will be awesome but they are also kind of weak in the health area. Priest strategy is to damage your opponents health while using your guardian angel to suck their mana, then when they are under half of their mana you can rip out their soul

Serpent class with Thoth's Fang dagger for faster stabbing

Serpents are the stealthy class but they can summon pet snakes to help them fight, you can go invisible and then backstab someone for a lot of damage and then run away and start shooting them with your bow

Monk class with +Intelligence and +magic damage collars

Monks can use Kaido energy attacks so items that increase their magic damage are great

Pretty much any Perfect World game.

Perfect World games are little babies. Not really Pay2Win much, compared to Aeria games. Try Shaiya and you'll see what Pay2Win means. There are few things in Aeria's shops that don't give power to the buyer. Not many cosmetics, a lot of power-house in there though.

Just curious, how fun could you possibly have once u paid the cash and became the strongest?

Games like that have limited playerbase, the only ones who stick around are the ones who invest a lot.. therefore your relitive power is nothing... since everyone else has the same.

Games like that get old and boring very fast, your prob better off in single player games or a vip/sub based game(in a sub based at least theres other people and power MEANS something)
