We keep mentioning there need to be more gold sinks - what sorts do we suggest?
A few ideas -
1) Gold to re-roll one or more attributes on an item (a LARGE amount of gold - this could eventually create a "perfect" item if there's no cap to how many times a given attribute can be re-rolled.)
2) Gold to unlock special skill runes. (Related to non-survival-related aspects of the game, like gold find, magic find, crafting material find, et cetera.)
3) Increased stash size. (Who won't throw as much gold at that as can be thrown at it?)
4) Gambling - so long as there's stuff worth gambling for. It mostly worked in D2, pre-expansion. Although it still wasn't good enough, as gold was almost never used as player currency.
5) Adding socket(s) to items.
