As in many games, gold is the sinews of war in Arena of Valor since it allows you to buy the majority of the elements of the game that you will need to optimize your style of play (both on the purchase of champions but also and above all of arcana). Since the cap on total recoverable gold in the week has been removed, it is interesting to ask the following question: how to get gold on AoV the easiest?
If you are looking to make your game time more optimized in gold farming, there are several things to consider.
The type of match: 3v3 superior to 5v5
First of all, you should know that you earn more gold during a victory, but also when you obtain the title of best player (MVP) of the game. This is important since gold obtained passively during a match is limited to 75 for a win and 45 for a loss.
Indeed, whether you play a game in 3v3 or 5v5, you will get on average a little less than 5 gold per minute (in case of victory). A 3 minute 3v5 game will give you around 25 gold and allow you to restart at least one more match (if not two) compared to a 5v5 game.
The game will be available on Nintendo Switch from September
Therefore, participating in 3v3 games rather than 5v5 is more advantageous because the encounters are shorter and the chances of victory are increased since you are less dependent on your teammates to win the match. Even if you lose in 3v3, you will get a slightly higher gold total compared to a 5v5 match.
The use of boost:
Although it is possible to buy bonuses to earn more gold during your games (and in particular your victories) on AoV, it is more interesting to buy these gold boosts to play 5v5 games or ranked games since the total will not be limited to 75 gold.
So avoid using such boots on 3v3 games, which will only be useful for daily gold farming over shorter sessions.
Special conditions :
If you have the opportunity to play a character with a skin in ranked games and/or you have a good 5v5 win ratio (around 70-80%), it will be better to play in 5v5 games rather than 'in 3v3. The gold obtained will be higher in this specific case.
To summarize :
Focus on 3v3 games when you're alone and your main goal is to get gold quickly. If you have a boost, a skin on a character and you usually win your 5v5, it will be more interesting and profitable to play ranked or 5v5.
There really isn't a silver bullet to get gold even faster, no matter what, you'll need to play a lot of games in order to buy arcanas. However, the withdrawal of the weekly cap on Arena of Valor will allow the most motivated to quickly farm golds.
