Any good resources for testing whats better?

I use a 1500 GF/350 MF sorc, and usually just play it during trav TZ.
I always easily fill 10m gold within the TZ time.

Does Barb do alot better then this?

How long from 0-10m on a Barb?
Do they farm it with TZ no problem?

I have a maxed singer gf barb (2650gf)

It depends on whether the council is together from one spot or not, a run takes 1 to a max of 2 minutes for a run (not tz).
The highest amount I found in a game was around 1,4m gold.
On average I would say 700-800k gold per game.
So a barb is faster in my opinion.

Sounds very high end!

Do u have an estimate on how long it takes to fill 10m?
Barb def gets more gold per run etc, but Telekenesis / teleport etc saves alot of time in the long run.

I'm certain barb is faster to fill 10m gold, im just trying to figure out by how much :)

For sure it depends on how lucky you are on the amount drop.
If you really pure gf I would say 15+/-min for 10m

This is the barb I use:

with barbs you can use item find and double your gold that way ( plus you can easily stack much more GF/MF)

Tested some TZ on sorc this morning. Was a bit scuffed since it started 7am.

I died once, and lost merc once, and had to mule helm for merc mid runs.
also looted and I'd a alot of things, picked up all flawless/jewels/charms


Despite this i got 10m in 37min trav runs while terrorized.

I think thats pretty decent!




For referance, this is a MEGA budget sorc, costing prob around 200 fg in total.
I use 6 Goldfind charms, that all COULD have +1 cold skills, and alot of items in general could be improved alot.



And again, i have no doubt barb gets more gold in total, but i think sorc is closer then alot of ppl think.
This while being able to quickly clear trav during baalruns, or swapping gear for full MF - makes sorc kinda viable for this aswell imo!
