Post 60-- There's No Joy in Victory

[Elric of Grans]

I am constantly flat-broke because of the artisans, but I acknowledge this will only be an issue for my Demon Hunter. Once I get motivated to use the other classes more, they will likely have huge pools of gold with nothing to use it on. The up-front cost on these guys is definitely too much, but the lack of a continued investment in them is the final economic break. If you could invest in the Blacksmith to improve him further (eg investing cash to make him roll the higher-end of certain modifiers, investing cash to PICK one of the modifiers, etc) and make him less cruddy in general and I could see gold being very precious. At least, in my world; other players may do things differently.
