You are forgetting that torpor is a level 60 shaman spell. How do a bunch of level 60 shamans appear suddenly? Haha im just busting your chops man. I know what you are saying. There has a been a strong rise in shaman, but not all make it to level 60 before they get burnt out.

I do see where the OP is coming from. He probably remembers 8 months ago or so when they were going for 50k or less, which is actually possible for someone in his situation to afford. Now at 150k it's out of his reach, unless he gets lucky farming it himself...

I would actually go out on a limb and say that one of the reasons why there are so many shamans now is because they are so easy to level, because there are so many fungi tunics on the server as well as JBBs and the epic is MQ'able here and very cheap/easy compared to other epics.

One could even argue because of the above, Torpor's price is out of line because:
a) too many fungis on the server (making them affordable)
b) too many jbb's on the server (same)
c) shaman epic is mq'able (this is a whole other issue whether or not epics should be mq'able)

If they had kept the fungi drop rate super low, the chances of less level 60 shamans being on the server would more than likely be decreased, same holds true for jbb.
