I'm currently wearing all-mail armor with a heater shield and a scottish sword (total cost ~10k). I think I had to pay 2k upkeep and made more than 10k, so I think I can afford a much better weapon. Many of my kills were with looted weapons :).

On my mounted HA I was using steppe horse, aketon, felt cap, leather boots and gloves, exceptional light crossbow, steel bolts x 2, tempered longsword. Was gaining money - and I got quite a bit of playtime with that outfit. Gained quite a bit.

On my spearman/lancer I'm using a palfrey (7.5K), balanced heavy lance (4.4k base), deadly warspear (2.5k base), a kite shield (1k gold), and tribal leather (1.5K) + nordic fighter helm (+1.5K) + some leather gloves and boots (+0.5K). Making money on it too.

Equipment Cost: 22502 gold

Repair is on auto.

Having absolutely no problems making money so far since last night. I've spent a few thousand on items and I'm still up a good bit so far. Not monitoring it closely but it seems like I'm gaining faster than pre-patch.

My heavy cata cost me 8900 upkeep when I accidentally put it on at the start of a round.  If I take it off of my default equipment, it disappears on the server, so I want to keep it as default in case I need it. 

Unfortunately that causes occasional losses of 9k gold.

Sad to say, but winning chances are based on 1 thing: with team have more cav.

My gold gain eq:
Straw Hat
White Tunic
Short Bow
2 handed sword.

I have 3,5k gold - 16k gold for repair of my normal EQ. All the time I'm in losing team, so in 1 hour I've earned 3k gold...
