10 Most Expensive In-Game Items EVER
6. Echoing Fury Mace - Diablo 3 ($15,000)
With the highest damage of any one-handed weapon, the Echoing Fury Mace's discovery in Diablo III was a watershed moment in the game's history.
Requiring a character level of 60 to drop, this legendary mace gained an infamous reputation for exploiting a damage allocation bug, becoming one of the most sought-after items.
With 1166.2–1433.8 Damage Per Second and 1.25–1.26 Attacks per Second as its base stats, the Echoing Fury Mace is the ultimate DPS-dealing machine. Following the 2.6.6 patch, the weapon gained a unique stacking element that increases attack speed and movement speed by 75%/25% in total for every enemy killed, just in case it wasn't powerful enough.
The original owner of the weapon famously sold the Echoing Fury Mace for a few thousand dollars to allegedly help pay their rent, but that didn't stop its stock from soaring in the years since.
A bid of 40 BILLION in-game gold was later coughed up by one player for the weapon which, when adjusted for real-world currency, equates to around $15,000.
