Not to encourage this too much - however, I'm pretty sure we all know that most of the fungi tunics being sold were farmed before the invis pull nerf.

Fact of the matter is that whether there are 2 or 6 people camping Fungi, the drop-rate is still the same and therefore there will be just as many on the market. The fact that two people can no longer farm them strictly for cash does not justify raising the price. Go find something else to farm. Fungi Tunics will remain just as common/rare as they always have in the meantime.

how stupid can you people be? it hurts my head. the people who were farming them prior are not people who want to roll on a item 5-6 ways, there for we arent camping this shit anymore. the only way this mob will be killed is by tight nit groups of highly geared players who find a way to pull it and do the camp with 3-4. thats it. and guess what, fungi is a cluster camp, so goodluck finding 3-4+ players to sit in the same spot for the necessary 10+hours to kill the camp and stand the variance of getting 0 as a possibility in that timeframe. so what does this mean for those of you with downs? less in circulations...which means fungi costs more shinies. stop complaining about it go try the camp, show us your shit results, then shake your head and put 85+k in the trade window.
I'd like to know how many have dropped since the patch. I've seen a few groups attempt to get to/hold the camp, but no one locking it down.

No, the fact of the matter is that king will not be camped 20+ hours per day anymore now that he isn't a trivial afk duo camp. Drop rate per kill is the same, but drop rate per day will not be... and the latter is what controls the number of new tunics entering the game.

my head hurts reading ur post whining ab people who obv are looking to save up for an item that doubled in price but the amount avail did not change yet
yes a month from now they will b more rare and two months more rare etc
but right now theres alot of sale just like there were the day before. U guys arnt oil speculators, u charge what people pay. Ur response screams silver spoon elitist that if ur not making boatloads of plat every hour ur not having fun.

Except there won't be a shortage for a while, you have to wait for demand to catch up to lack of supply which will take months. That's why 10 different people are trying to sell fungi's for 100k in EC every night and no one is buying them, because they don't understand this.

There are two effects at work here:
1. The king is being camped 12 hours a day instead of 20 or whatnot, because it's not so fucking trivial any more.
2. A number of classes (like Rogues) who were utterly unable to duo it are now useful, and thus winning and holding on to their fungi tunics rather than selling them like 95% of the previous drops
On the other hand I don't think the price will go too crazy; there are already a huge number of them on the server. 80-85 actually seems like a pretty reasonable long-term price.
Considering that for 8 months after Kunark the fungi was 200-250, and that for another 8 months after people figured out how to SK pull him it gradually declined to 100k, and that it's one of the most overpowered items in the game (fungi+FBSS >>> cloak of flames and no regen), I don't really see the cause for complaint.

oldschool you're a muppet, what number are you basing the "doubling" price off of. i said 85k+ in my post, i dont think i said 150? and exactly as splorf said there are various reasons for the instance price increase, but splorf you are totally off the mark, king isnt even camped some days, yesterday was the 1st time a group was down there longer than 4 hours since the patch. theres no reason to be whining and arguing about this, people can post whatever price they want to anyway, dont buy it if you dont like it.

Let's cut with the economics here and stop pretending people actually use economic strategy to determine prices here. People charge what they want thats why you see such a difference in prices IE one selling for 85k and someone else is the guy selling it for 150k because thats what he is only willing to part with it for.

someone else is the guy selling it for 150k because thats what he is only willing to part with it for.
until he realizes he cant sell it for that much and slowly lowers it down to what ever the new market value is if he actually wants to sell it

The reason the price of tunics went from 200+k to under 100k isn't just because people figured out how to pull it easily - it's because the spawn rate was increased (from 3% to 7% I believe) and because tunics were made the common drop instead of the rare one.

You can get a fungi for whatever price you want.
So long as nobody else is remotely willing to pay anything more than what you owe...and we got some wealthy bastards on this server.

FFS there are a million fungis on the server itll be a while before the price gets cranked again - its probably a good thing its harder to camp because its no longer a way for enc/monk/shaman duos flood the market
how about this?? play the fucking game and kill some fucking mobs to get an uber piece of gear - - - what a concept

Tuljin
07-19-2013, 12:25 PM
yep - - and now there will be a much higher chance of getting the camp due to the increased difficulty - - in the feb patch seb went from being pretty poppin at zoneline to being a ghost town where there is always at least one camp open and nubs get decimated - - now this patch will do even more separating the men from the boys in seb
the feb patch was good cause it filtered out a lot of scrubs, but at the same time its much more of a production to group cause you cant really go there alone and easily get a group anymore
i guess we'll have to wait and see how the king camp pans out now that its a challenge :P
