I have the Dragon Armor and get around 1000 gold for pvp matches now. But when I do quest, even on the higher difficulty I only get a couple hundred gold. Is this normal? With the armor bonus and bonus from the difficulty I thought it would be more. ---

Yep that is normal. The amount of gold as a prize in both quests and challenges is about a quarter of what you would win in a pvp match. The opponents are quite a bit weaker as well so the reward is fittingly less. ---

The opponents are quite a bit weaker as well so the reward is fittingly less. Alright thanks. I would have thought with the 75% bonus or 100% bonus for difficulty and the 100% armor bonus it would be a bit more. ---

Something that would make you feel better about the amount . . . do a challenge _without_ the armor. Now the other amount doesn’t seem so small. 😉 ---

You get exactly 10 base gold from winning a challenge or quest battle (and up to an additional 100 base from 4-5 matches/in match gold gains like alchemist). Its closer to 1% of PvP gains than a quarter. No amount of modifiers is going to make that look good. ---

Its closer to 1% of PvP gains than a quarter. No amount of modifiers is going to make that look good Thanks for the info. Do bonus gold from traits have a limit on how much you get also? ---

Traits apply to in-game gathered gold only and before the 100 limit, which is why they are essentially useless. ---

@Mithran is right. All the bonuses do is speed up how fast you get to the cap. Both for gold and souls. ---

> [@collectorofgems](#): > > All the bonuses do is speed up how fast you get to the cap. Both for gold and souls. So I could have every troop with a gold trait, high difficulty for higher gold and armor for the gold and that would not raise the cap, just get to the cap faster? ---

For the most part yes. Raising difficulty only affects quests and challenges but not pvp. So the cap would go up with a harder difficulty in those but your troop bonuses only get you to the new cap faster. ---

Having the same problem with getting souls. With PvP you get more gold. Is there a cap here also? Can’t remember, but do you usually get more souls in Pvp? ---

I’m level 1000, have Deathknight armor, all kingdoms level 10 and 5 starred (Leonis is only 4) when I do a challenge my cap is 130 souls. Pvp is only 120. When played on the same difficulty. So I guess the answer to your question is No. ---

The cap for souls is 40 before armour, vip, difficulty multipliers. How much gold do you get during a match for killing troops etc.? ---

My multiplier is 3.1 for gold. I just finished my climb to tier one and to be honest I’ve stopped looking at the gold and souls won each battle. I won from 2500 (low side) up to 4000 gold (high side). ---

In PvP I usually get between 600 to 1100 or something. ---

With souls, does it matter how long the match goes on for? Will I still reach the cap if the match is short? ---

Usually need to fire Valkyrie off two to three times minimum within the match to reach the cap and have her alive when you finish. ---
