Before you spend a single Obol, make room in your inventory. The Purveyor can fill it faster than you might expect, and sorting a crowded bag halfway through gets old quickly. Sell or salvage gear you know you won't use, then keep a few slots open for fresh rolls. If you're comparing D4 items for your current build, look at the stats you actually need rather than saving everything with a promising glow. It's much easier to spot a real upgrade when your bag isn't full of gear you meant to check last week.
Pick a Slot Before You Spend
There's no need to buy a little of everything. Start with the weakest part of your build and work from there. If your weapon is holding you back, check the weapon options first. If your damage feels fine but you're missing a useful defensive stat, an armor slot might be the better choice. Jewelry can be tempting when it's inexpensive, but a low price doesn't help if none of the results would fit your build. Compare each roll with what you're wearing before moving on. Item power matters, but the right resource, cooldown, or defensive affix may matter more.
Check the Panel and Set a Reserve
Visit the Purveyor in Kyovashad or another town with the vendor, and check the live prices before making a plan. The currency tooltip shows your current Obol limit, so don't rely on a number you remember from an older season. Take a screenshot of your balance, limit, and available categories if you want a record of the session. When you're close to the limit, spend enough to make room for the next round of rewards. When you're nowhere near it, you can be more selective. Keep enough aside for at least one purchase from the most expensive category currently listed.
Check whether Curious Addition has any active nodes, and read their current effects before buying.
Choose the gear category most likely to improve your weakest equipped slot.
Compare each purchase with your equipped item, then keep, equip, sell, or salvage it as appropriate.
Consider a key or another specialty purchase only if it serves a specific need and fits your reserve.
Keep the Next Trip Simple
After you've spent, note your starting balance, the amount used, the upgrades equipped, and the Obols left. No upgrade is a perfectly reasonable result; the point is to spend with a purpose and avoid losing future rewards at the limit. If you need more currency, head out for an event or another activity that awards Obols, then come back with the same slot priorities in mind. Players who buy cheap D4 items may still find it useful to compare every Purveyor roll against their equipped gear. Save tempering and masterworking for pieces you've actually decided to use.
