Buy chests and sell them. How much you can make depends how much chests sell for on your server.

Its kind of a split between buying a whole ton of leystone fragments and getting hotbar expansion slots. You need to go places and yet you need to do stuff.

Seriously though each world is different. You need to understand the demand for items, short and long term. Then just divide the gold those items sell for by the plat cost. Then you buy the item with the highest gold to plat ratio that will sell. Often this is chests. Sometimes, though, using math has surprising results like on my world buying alt books is pretty high gold/plat. Many clans will buy 20-50 books at a time. Every world economy is different and you need to know it well.

As far as opening a reasonable number of chests the expected value (discounting extremely rare items which are unlikely to come up when opening just a few hundred) is around 10-15k on my world yet chests sell for 20k making it a much better deal to sell unopened.

I've made a lot of gold selling combo and haste lix. Hardly anyone is buying chests on my server. And those that are are only willing to pay 5-7k.

Heck ya might try shouting you're selling plat items. Then you can buy /sell as ppl request items.

For the original post, please listen to me and read this.... Do not buy platinum! Not now for at least. Black Friday weekend sale is coming soon, at least I expect one to come out, which will give you the opportunity to make more bang for the buck, and who knows, maybe you will have more money saved up by then. Just be patient, and you will make a lot more gold sooner than you think. Also, once you do get the platinum, feel free to buy the chests then, and sell then, or buy then, sell later, etc etc..... Choice is all yours, but I highly advise waiting.
