Here’s something I think a lot of people are missing. I played before kunark on this server but not early enough for mana stones.

There was no guarantee p99 was going to survive long term and who is going to go balls to the walls to camp something for days on a server that might not make it?

The server surviving as long as it has gives its legitimacy which gives value to items that no longer drop. The better the legitimacy of the server, the longer it goes, the more the population should grow and value of manastones or similar legacy items always goes up.

The party looks about popped though imo. I think p99 has seen the best numbers they are going to ever see. Mana stones might see really high sales once there’s a merge to blue but that’s only because people have been farming plat for 8+ years. Inflation. After that I see a stale and stagnant market and mana stones dropping very far value wise.
