So what is the point of bidding for one when the START bid is 40p? Buy it off the CM instead :)

Well I just need the plat

1. Starting price at CM was 42 when I checked

2. It's not like I don't need it. And I won it it then lottery...

3. Actually I would like nothing better than to incluce it in my template. But as a more or less casual player I have not methods of getting the cash need for the über template :( . Hell I can't even afford the love story scrolls. So I figured I'd cash it in and buy som stuff that would make me able to compete just a little in RVR :)

Update - price at CM up to 50p

As title says. Only one item for sale btw - priced at 50p. So 40p seems reasonable. Buyout price 45p.

As I am looking to build a void eld template I would be interested in trading for items that will serve me well in this regard. Stuff like:

Maddening Scalars (+ scrolls)

Soot Stained Boots (Cloth)

Tartaros (+ scrolls)

Cloudsong (+ scrolls 2 &3)

Erinys Charm (+ scrolls)

Traldor's Belt

Name: Immolated Ring

Bracer of Heavenly Bodies

Ill just point out that cause some fewl sticks something up for sale at x plat that doesnt make it a fair price or one that youll get a sale at. Govs sell for 20-30p youll be lucky to find someone desperate enough to pay 40-45p for it, really, but good luck...

People put things on CMs overpriced when they dont care about money. I had a legie heater bow 99% for 30p, just for the fun of it (now in my vault).

Pogue, if you sell it, get the soot boots, traldor scrolls, immolated ring, crown of zahur arti + scrolls (join someone to get encounter), do ml1.5 do get krojers dex ring, and maybe buy a bracer of heavenly bodies.

with those things and perhaps something else you can do an ok template. :)

The GoV has changed its ownership. So bitching about high prices will now have to take place in another thread. :flame:

40p for gov aint nothing, especially not when ppl are desperate enough to buy love story 2/3 for 20p?

Hehe, that was me Mastade, and I tried finding you ingame before I bought it to see if you wanted to sell it cheaper. Call me desperate if you want, but to me the ingame money means nothing, I have enough hundreds of plats to buy whatever I want to save time instead of farming it. There are alot of others like me who would rather farm what we know best and that pays off alot of money in short time, than to go out to try to find one perticular scroll and so on. The other day the Love Story scroll on your CM was the only one available and was the last thing missing for my druids template. Do you really want to call me desperate for just buying it and complete my set?

Anyway, ingame money is worthless, its just a matter of time spent getting what you want vs time spent getting the plats it "cost" . And for me, the time spent getting plats is usually alot shorter than time spent getting items/scrolls :)

Very nice for you ofcourse but have you ever realised that what you are doing is very bad for the ppl who dont have 100's of plats ?

If you want something so bad and just buy it for some silly price a guy put it on his CM, other ppl will put it up for that price aswell .. making the price higher. Sure you dont care because you have lots of money but ppl without lots of money do care.

So, basically you're saying I should NOT use the money I have, or rather I shouldnt earn them in any way with farming, so that I too can spend alot of hours farming for the one scroll I want instead of buying them. Yes, sounds fair, why shouldnt you be allowed to dictate me how I should play during my own gametime.

I dont really feel sorry for people without money in this game, cause they are either 100% RvR people who dont wanna farm (your choice of what to do, you still have the time to do it if you really want to), or they are people with 1 account, 1 char .. and even those people can kill blue con mobs below the ocean and get good scrolldrops to sell for a good portion of money. Everyone can get money, you dont have to farm the high level endgame pve stuff to gain money.

You could use the plats to buy some glasses .. i only said its bad for the players without lots of plats .. i never said you couldnt buy anything .. sure it is your right to use your money in whatever way you want .. but think of the consequences before you buy something.

Funny you should say that, cause right now is actually one of the very few times I do wear my glasses :)

No, but what you said was that what I do is bad for the game or atleast the people that dont wanna farm to get money, and even though you didnt tell me how to play my game, you pretty much would very much like for me NOT to do that, hense bringing down prices as a result (if everyone else with loads of plats did the same ofcourse). I could have worded my response differently I guess, but its basically the same.

On the other side, if you dont have plats and you dont have or dont wanna take time to farm to get plats, dont go for the highend stuff and just let those with plats get it then. Nobody is saying you NEED to get GOV or other high end artifacts/items to play the game.

But does that mean the ppl without as much time should not even get a chance to get the items ?

Whenever i see an item which i know is worth way less, but i need it badly, i still dont buy it. Just because you can afford it doesnt mean its worth it.
I can understand your point, if you have the money .. why not spend it on something you need. Well maybe im just a retard but i just dont think it works that way. Same reason i dont farm artifacts either .. i would like other people to get a shot at the artifact aswell.

No, that dont mean you're a retard, your intentions are somewhat noble even but it dont really work that way. Speaking for myself, I play alot but I also have a full outside-of-game life consisting of work, girlfriend and a kid. So for me to spend more time than I absolutely need to to get one thing in perticular, it would mean sacrifising from my personal life. So instead of doing that, we find ways to make our farming as effective as possible, so we can make as much money as we can in as short time as possible, to be able to get what we want when we want it for whatever the cost might be at that point.

Maybe that dont fit everyone, maybe its not fair, but thats the way me, and alot of others I know, prefer to play the game. Those with less time to play SHOULD actually not be able to get the exact perfect set that someone that DO have alot of time to play can get, thats just the way it work. The more work you put into something, the more payback/benefit you should get. Anyone playing 3 hours pr week and thinking its unfair that they cant get the same as those playing 30 hours pr week really need to rethink a bit. Yes, its a game so you cant really compare to real life, but its about the same thing, its about time spent. Spend 40 hours pr week working, you gain a regular salary. Work 4 hours pr week, well .. hope someone else pay for your ways :)

To your comments about farming artifacts; Personally I have never farmed stuff like GOV, SOM and CS which are heavily camped artifacts. I have always farmed the hard to get (for some), but not as much camped artifacts like Battler, Braggarts, Cyclops, Zo'Arkath and stuff like that, and sold it pretty cheap. Personally I think thats actually HELPING casual players rather than working against them, it gets them the artifact cheap (I used to sell Battler for 300-500 gold), and they can join an open artiraid to get credit. So you see, all farming isnt a bad thing. Yes, I made money from it, but others were happy, so it cant be all bad.

you also get good drops from killing battler xD


anyho, Mithryn is doing what Mythic wanted with the game, making people pve \o/

he/they pve's, get rich, buy stuff expensive, make other people pve to get rich so they have compete with the prices he lays down by buying stuff expensive ;-D

(i bet he's employed by Mythic to make people do more toa! ;p)

Hush Ardd, Battler dont drop good loot, period! ;)

If I were an employee of Mythic, I sure wish they would find my address again so they could send me that monthly paycheck.

I agree to the fact of selling arties cheap .. that helps alot .. but not alot of ppl sell stuff cheap.
And if an artifact is overcamped it will hardly be up for ppl to join an open lotto raid aswell.

Anyway .. enough jabbering for today from me.
