⚠️ Enter a gold per run and run duration greater than zero.

💡 Tip: Time a few real runs and average them — small differences in run duration have a big effect on your gold/hour. Compare two farms by entering each and checking which gives the higher rate.

How the calculation works

The math behind gold farming is simple once you separate rate from volume. Your gold per hour is your gold per run divided by run duration in minutes, multiplied by sixty. Runs needed is your target gold divided by gold per run, rounded up because you cannot do a partial run. Total time is runs needed multiplied by run duration.

Because the calculator rounds runs up, the total time it shows is the real time you will spend, not an idealized figure. This makes it easy to answer the two questions that actually matter: how long until I hit my goal, and which farm is faster.

Improving your rate

Two levers change your gold/hour: earning more per run, or finishing runs faster. Higher-tier content usually raises gold per run, but only helps if it does not slow your clears too much. Gear that boosts movement speed or clear speed often beats raw gold bonuses because it multiplies every future run.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best gold farm in Vampires vs. Werewolves?

The best gold farm is the highest-tier dungeon your character can clear reliably at speed. Consistent dungeon runs at D5 and above give the strongest gold-per-hour once you factor in vendor drops and crafting materials. Enter your real gold per run and run duration above to compare farms and pick whichever yields the highest gold/hour.

Do gold boosts and premium stack?

Percentage gold boosts are additive with each other rather than multiplicative. A +50% premium bonus and a +30% event boost combine to +80% total, not +95%. To model this, multiply your base gold per run by 1 plus your combined boost percentage before entering it into the calculator.

What is a good gold per hour benchmark?

As a rough guide, early-game players clear roughly 2,000–4,000 gold/hour, mid-game dungeon farmers reach 8,000–15,000 gold/hour, and optimized end-game routes with boosts active can exceed 25,000 gold/hour. Your gold/hour is shown live above so you can benchmark your own route.

Is trading gold with other players allowed?

Player-to-player trading through the in-game auction house and direct trade window is fully allowed and part of the intended economy. Buying gold with real money from third-party sellers is against the rules and can result in a ban, so keep all gold trades inside the game.

Is the Gold Farming Rate Calculator free?

Yes. The calculator is completely free, runs entirely in your browser, needs no account or login, and works on desktop and mobile. You only need a Vampires vs. Werewolves account when you want to play the game itself.
