	''Piggy Bank'' is a ~~good economic item to buy on most characters and in most situations. The item will only become net positive~~ if you can afford to ~~hold back some materials~~. ~~Very often this just happens passively~~, ~~because~~ it is ~~rare to fully exhaust the material supply in most shops. Even with plenty of materials to spend~~, ~~rerolling becomes uneconomic due to the increasing cost~~ of ~~rerolls per shop, leaving~~ the ~~character with unspent money~~.		''Piggy Bank'' is an [[Economy\|Economic Item]] that can earn you a ton of Materials if you're ahead and can afford to save up Materials between rounds. Like other Economic items, it is more powerful when bought early, and of little value when bought in the late game.

	The ''Piggy Bank'' is ~~especially good on [[Demon]]~~, because ~~this character pays with HP instead of materials~~, and will ~~invariably~~ have ~~a lot of unspent money in his account~~.		The amount of materials generated by the ''Piggy Bank'' is substantial, due to the high growth rate of 20%, and because the process is multiplicative (compounding). Any amount held back will more than double over four waves, and will have multiplied by ~6.2 over ten waves.

	~~The amount of materials generated by~~ the ''Piggy Bank'' ~~is substantial~~, ~~due~~ to ~~the high growth rate of 20%~~, ~~and because~~ the ~~process is multiplicative (compounding). Any amount held back will more than double over four waves,~~ and ~~will have multiplied by ~6.2~~ over ~~ten~~ waves.		So when you have the ''Piggy Bank'', you need to carefully evaluate how many materials you want to spend when you're shopping. It might not be worth it reroll as much. And some economic items might not be worth their cost, as the materials could be saved and multiply over multiple waves.

	~~Therefore, many of the other economic items in the game become bad investments with a ''Piggy Bank'~~', ~~because~~ it is better to ~~not buy the item in question and instead let the materials multiply in~~ the ''Piggy Bank''.		If you can't save up materials between rounds, it might be better to skip the ''Piggy Bank'', since it will barely recoup its purchasing price.

	~~If you own a~~ ''Piggy Bank''~~, you need~~ to ~~carefully re-evaluate any economic items before buying them~~. ~~Recycling items from crates for materials becomes a lot more valuable for~~ the ~~same reason (even economic items)~~.		The ''Piggy Bank'' has strong synergy with characters such as {{CharacterIcon\|Demon}} or {{CharacterIcon\|Streamer}} that naturally tend to have materials saved up between waves. The Character {{CharacterIcon\|Saver}} starts the game with ''Piggy Bank'' and has their entire gameplay built around the item.

			The item tooltip shows the total amount of materials generated by the item, but does not take into account the purchase cost of the item itself, if any.

			=== Strategy ===

			''Piggy Bank'' is a good economic item to buy on most characters and in most situations. The item will only become net positive if you can afford to hold back some materials. Very often this just happens passively, because it is rare to fully exhaust the material supply in most shops. Even with plenty of materials to spend, rerolling becomes uneconomic due to the increasing cost of rerolls per shop, leaving the character with unspent money.

			The ''Piggy Bank'' is especially good on [[Demon]], because this character pays with HP instead of materials, and will invariably have a lot of unspent money in his account.

			The amount of materials generated by the ''Piggy Bank'' is substantial, due to the high growth rate of 20%, and because the process is multiplicative (compounding). Any amount held back will more than double over four waves, and will have multiplied by ~6.2 over ten waves.

			Therefore, many of the other economic items in the game become bad investments with a ''Piggy Bank'', because it is better to not buy the item in question and instead let the materials multiply in the ''Piggy Bank''.

			If you own a ''Piggy Bank'', you need to carefully re-evaluate any economic items before buying them. Recycling items from crates for materials becomes a lot more valuable for the same reason (even economic items).
