If you are a hardcore MMO player that spends tens of thousands of hours in game, those extra magic find, gold drop, experience and karma increases really add up. It's alot to do with "adding value to your account". But it's all a matter of perspective. No perspective is wrong. Just playing the game and having fun is completely fine. Others like to set goals and objectives for themselves. Some just like the benefits those achievements provide.

Check out the video for full stats and price estimates. It's 3 minutes. But just skip to the end if you want a everything that was dropped and the price estimate per bag. I wanted a video of the entire opening session to provide evidence that I had actually opened them and not just fudge the figures or whatever. I plan on doing more like this in the future. Peace. > > > > > > Paying my respect F. > Why would you open so many bags without noticing on the tooltip it says "affected by magic find". So much luck wasted. Haha yeah, I did notice it but I was more interested in a baseline. Maybe next time I'll max out all magic find boosts. For science! I'll farm essence of luck for a year and see how we go next year :)

Playing the entire story line will greatly increase the value and productivity of your account. There are a substantial amount of achievements involved and these get you increased rewards from everything else in the game (Karma, xp, magic find etc).

Are you intending on playing the game long term? If so, I recommend investing your gold. Perhaps place buy orders on T6 materials and use them to craft legendary weapons, which you can sell for a profit. Then use that to build and invest more. Many "achievements" do just come down to wealth acquisition. But there is an aspect of make your wealth work for you in this game. So it's better as a beginner to invest early. But remember that bonuses (gold drops, karma, experience et al) come as you go through achievement milestones so don't go overboard.
