Given how the experience curve has become much much steeper in Heroes VI, treasure chests do not have the impact they once had.
Therefor I nearly always go for gold.

As much as that may be, or may have been, the case, you also know well that I don't multiplay. So when I say stuff like that, it's strictly in the sense of singleplay.

I usually get gold until I have too much of it. Which generally isn't the case. Sometimes if I want to get an important artifact early on, I'll choose exp so I can get those 5th level spells that help so much.

What Elvin said. Sometimes I need a skill/spell before a tough fight and I can only level up through a chest nearby. Like Mass Life Drain before combat with an enemy hero.

If you have one town and no outside-dwellings, then yes. But if that is the case then the map is badly designed, I'd say.
By the time you have ~12k gold income a day, you've several towns at least and a couple of forts with a few outside-dwellings. In which case, by the time you've all those towns developed, or even before, you can spend all that on your creature growth and still come short.

If you are within a treasure chest of a level up, for instance level 1, occasionally I will pick exp. Also if I am playing campaigns and more gold is not going to affect the outcome or time for me to finish I will pick exp because it carries over. Other than that, always gold. This is the classic noob choice... anyone have those norm the noob comics handy?
