Edit: Any way I can find these people? How would the transfer/exchange work anyways? How can I make sure I am not being ripped off? Thanks!
Is there any way to convert silver into gold? I am not planning to do strategus, yet, so I wanted to know if I can do anything else with the silver.
-
you could just exchange with someone. pleanty of people are buying strat gold for crog gold and other way.
-
Some strat players/factions are willing to buy silver/troops/equipment for crpg gold. Thats the only way.
Edit: Damn Latvian was 3 sec faster.
Edit2: But at least I checked for typos :lol:

Well, a normal person would search the forums. Much faster than opening new topics and waiting for people to answer them :lol:

And no, you probabaly can't know if you'll be ripped off. But clans and most of the players probably won't want to ruin their reputation for some silly deal + admins might help if someone simply refuses to fill his end of the deal.
But you probably won't get any good deals unless you have A LOT of good stuff to sell. I used to do the equipment buying for Coalition and my weekly budget varied from 2 mil to 25mil. And most of the larger factions can reach that. So to get someone's attention you'll need huge amounts of silver.

My strat silver has a small growth even though I don't play strat, nor have any idea how XD Should I wait till it is like 20k or something?
P.S. On the strat website it says banked gold: 1.00 (2% daily), what does that mean?
-
There used to be a "bank" where you could put your silver in. It would grow there with 2% per day, and then at the end of strat there would have been something like a loomlottery where 1 silver meant 1 ticket or something. But that got removed a LONG time ago, so now the bank thingy does nothing.
And yeah, you should save up your silver because the amounts of silver you can get alone, just by grinding it from strat ticks is pretty much insignificant. Most of the strat silver is earned by trading goods around the strat map. So if you want to get something sold I suggest you grind up some troops and sell them. Troops however will need silver for the upkeep :D
The way you are getting silver atm is by spending strat ticks. 1 tick is consumed every hour to either produce you some silver or 1 troop. If your army size is below your max troop limit you'll produce troops, if you've reached your limit you'll produce silver. You are earning these ticks by playing cRPG. You'll get strat ticks when your multiplier is high enough, can't remember how that thing worked. But a few hours of crpg per week should keep you supplied with strat ticks.
Why you should try to sell troops instead of silver? As I mentioned earlier, you can earn silver by trading strat goods. And a single trader can earn millions per one trade run, so you have no chance to compete with that. Troops however can only be gained by players slowly using their strat ticks, so even the best trader will always have shortage of troops. This is why in current strat all armies now march in fully loomed plate armors. It's easy to get silver, but hard to get troops.
