Basically in TW 1 and 2. You gather a bunch of Tokens, gather 50-100 tmq1 peices and sucide upgrade them all until you have a +13-15 set. Same with gloves. In taiwan if you have +11 and higher armor and +15 gloves you wont win since everyone got it.
But, yeah all the players with kids dont spend cash on it. It's all free only problem is getting dogi effects from events..
I would go kid but, dont wanna put alot of effort into it.
Well...upgrading random +13 armor isnt going to work..so youre probably going to use brown boxes...*cough* cash shop *cough* sooooooo :D
