I am trying to do the above achievement , where can I go to monitor my shortfall amount?
Thanks
Lower right hand corner of the screen it will show where your gold streak is at. It will disappear when it is broken. When I am going for this conquest, I usually give a few quick glances to see where I am at.
TBH, if you are running T16 pretty solid and have gold% as secondary on all your gear, maxed BotH, Emerald in your hat, and Avarice band and Goldskin on your follower, you can get this conquest with a decent cursed chest.
You don’t need pimped out gear to run T16, so if some of your main gear doesn’t have gold%, get a backup piece and simply roll gold% on it. The % seems small, like 25% on a piece of gear, but once it goes through all the multipliers, it adds up fast.
An alternate way to do this if you are having trouble, is with bounty caches. You need 31 caches on T16, so if you have Altar node activated for double bags, you will need to finish 16 bounty acts. Just remember when opening to turn off your pet, and stand next to the stash, so you can open the first 30, and get the last 2 out of your stash without moving. Once you open them, move and you pick the gold and insta-conquest.

Ever since Visions were introduced, I get my Avarice Conquest without even trying. Especially on T16. I’ll clear Visions while running Bounties. When you hit a map with Goblin Packs, kill them as quick as you can. Your Pet will pick up most of the Gold. The rest you can pick up while chasing down the Goblins. Don’t pick up any loot until all the Gold has been picked up or you see the Avarice Conquest Complete popup window.
I do this with my Unhallowed Multishot Demon Hunter and no special “Gold gear”.

As above said, you can watch your gold streak from right below corner of the screen. That value counter vanishes when the streak is broken and whenever you reach 50 million, you’ll know.
First, go into Greed’s Vault by cubing a Puzzle Ring to acquire Boon of the Hoarder gem from slaying Greed, if you haven’t got it yet. Now you want to upgrade a few rare Polearms in the cube for scoring Bovine Bardiche or loot one by any chance. Keep onto Bovine Bardiche and run a few low Greater Rifts to bring Boon gem, up to rank 30+; rank 50 is nice to have but not entirely required for this challenge.
After that, what you wanna do is; socketing Boon of the Hoarder on your equipment and running Not-the-Cow level by transmuting Bovine Bardiche in Kanai’s Cube in T16 difficulty. As you make long killstreaks your gold streak will grow fast. In case you can chain a long enough killstreak into activating Cow King’s chest challenge, you are half-way there. To be sure you may wanna wear Goldskin or equip Devil’s Tongue as well.
To complete this quest by sheer luck, you need to hit lots of Visions of Enmity and slaughter through goblin floors. By some luck, you can encounter two or more Gilded Barons in the same floor and you can easily complete it at T16 without any gold equipment required. If you have failed at that, you can always get Boon, Goldskin or Devil’s Tongue while running Visions or try your luck at Not-the-Cow level with Boon.

Thank you very much everyone and thanks for the tips on gold gears. Another question on same topic.
Are the golds collection accmulative or per character base?
Thanks again.

You have three seasonal heroes. So it is easy to check 
… if you know where to look that is? (In the inventory. Press “i” to open the inventory).
(Unless they are in different modes. Solo self found, “normal” seasonal or hardcore variants. You appear to have the heroes in the same mode).

This one is the easiest conquest, by far. Like everyone said, all you need is a maxed Boon of the Hoarder on a socketed Avarice Band.
I’ve always done mine on the Fields of Misery (act 1) with a speedy GoD Demon Hunter. But, that would apply to all fast builds with good AoE damage.

One little note: This is for PC only. On the console, there is no gold counter, so it’s one thing you need to just guess on.
Not that it matters here, as only PC players can access this specific forum. But just a heads up incase anyone asks outside the forum.

Do selling of loots to merchant from campaign or adventure mode count toward the achievement?
Thanks
That won’t work, because you can’t sell 50 million gold worth of gear at once. I think you’re misunderstanding the quest. It’s not a matter of slowly accumulating gold; you have to keep collecting it all in one fast session. That gold counter only lasts maybe 5-6 seconds before disappearing, so you need to be picking up more and more of it, continually, until you hit 50 million. The only way to do it is with really large and monster-filled zones (or as one noted, with a very large pile of bounty caches).

I think the counter resets faster than that. More like 3-4 seconds if you stop picking up gold.
I may be wrong, but it feels quicker than 5-6.
I usually do the quest on T13 in NTCL.
I use Hoarder gem in a Kymbo’s amulet with Emerald in helm, Leoric’s in cube and Goldskin on follower.
You can add other gold find items if you have to.

farm for the vision portals in t16. if you get a goblin level, go fast killing before you pick up anything, and you will collect more than 50 mil gold. i have the achieve for regular and for hardcore, same each time too. i didn’t have an avarice ring or gold gear or a green gem in my helm.

My recommendation is to wear goldskin and use RORG for the extra 100% gold on this item.
But yeah, this conquest is pretty easy if you have gold % on as much gear as possible, boon gem at lvl 50. You don’t need avarice band. You can use it, but it’s not needed imho.
On consoles, we get no gold counter (another screwup on the console ports). I just run and collect gold, usually on the cow level. But, a good open rift on T16 can do the job too. I got the HC conquest a week ago without even trying LOL, wasn’t even thinking of it.
This is how I got the HC conquest this season.
spot on.

You don’t need any gold gear find on your gear. You maybe need Avarice Band in the cube or worn (maybe) and just need BotH.
I get this conquest on accident just running Rifts for keys.
It’s the easiest conquest ever. Though it didn’t use to be because we only had T10 back then and you had to plan it out and go to Corvus to do it. But nowadays, no biggie.
