Yet another new player that's played Panzar for a week to max level and then moans about not having the same gear as other people..

It's taken me months to get the gear I have and all I ever pay for is a premium account to help support the game I enjoy playing.
New players should either take their time leveling to farm mats and gold slowly or be prepared to pay a little into the game to help them along the way.

If you enjoy the game then support it! They have staff and servers to run etc... It's not their hobby it's their job at the end of the day and bills need to be paid.

Just to update my experience, my main is a lvl 20 tank, pretty much full gear, level 10-20 upgrades, full amulets, runes and potions. Also have 3 other characters, one lvl 20, two lvl 14, all of which have made their standard gear up to those levels. I have been happy to spend some money on the game but not that much, less than £20, most of that was spent buying lvl 20 gear, premium and paint. Even if I hadnt and just paid for premium I would have had no problem keeping up with runes and amulets for at least two characters once gear was made.

An amulet takes 140-150 mats, at level 20 you can get 20-50 mats per game, so that is approx 5-6 games per amulet. Runes dont even count, they are so easy to get you should have no problem, my main has all runes slotted and enough made as backup for the next 2 weeks! All my other characters have all the runes they needs once they hit 20, whilst still having shards slotted all the time.

I am currently writing a guide on how you can get the most out of the game without spending much (if anything) which I hope will also debunk a lot of the myths around this subject.
