Just an example a T2 spear with dex a gem slot and 12 dex is 125 gold. A blue equivalent with also a trait on it is 35g on the auction house.
I’m always max faction tokens cause there is nothing worth the gold. It makes me not even care about faction quests other than increase storage sizes. This needs a revamp with more interesting/useful items to buy.
I agree there needs to be more things to do with faction tokens. Furniture, skins, consumables, etc. Right now all we use it for are runes for bags and daily guypsum orbs.
