Anyone know how the gold system works exactly?

[quote=Jebus McAzn]So everyone knows that the more kills you get, the more gold you're worth, up to an additional 1000 gold if you're Legendary. However, I've also heard that you're worth less gold the more you've died. In addition, I have no idea how Assists work either. I've heard that the killer gets a fixed amount of gold and the assisters split up a certain amount, but IDK. I've gotten as little as 38 gold for an assist and as little as 150 gold for a kill. In addition, the minion system is weird too. I get varying amounts of gold for killing minions, and it's never really constant - anyone want to enlighten me?[/quote]

[quote=Jvstm]I've gotten as little as 90 gold for a kill before :\ We had a Teemo one time that intentionally fed our team so they'd get Legendary, then they'd 4man gank him for 1000 gold + a ton for the assists, while the guy he was feeding was getting MAYBE 90g per kill. ended up losing that game, too, with a Teemo on the other team who was 0-50 some[/quote]

[quote=Searz]Kills always grant a fixed amount of money depending on the current "killing spree" of the person killed. Assists split 70% of the gold the kill gave among the people who were assisting.[/quote]

[quote=Reijax]^ Very Helpful thanks![/quote]

[quote=Jebus McAzn]Searz and Queso, that was ridiculously helpful. What about the gold obtained from minions? I'm pretty sure it's not a fixed value.[/quote]

[quote=Mowen]Just wanted to let you know I put this info in my FAQ, and credited Searz and Queso (since I basically copy / pasted what Searz wrote! :P) Just please update this thread if you find any information was incorrect or something like that. I will check back![/quote]

[quote=wRAthoFVuLK]MOWEN you should put the FAQ in your sig, just a thought. :D Although if you are not a fan of that it's fine, you can see I am though...LOL and yea this info is awesome, never knew how this quite worked :D[/quote]
