Raining Manastones?

[Dunes]

Okay, I don't want to trigger any RnF replies, hate mail from sellers, etc, but why are there SO MANY Manastones for sale right now? Without exaggeration, there are 5 for sale in the first 2 pages of EC Tunnel forum. Considering the perceived scarcity of this item, even on P99 where it was farmed far more than it ever was on Live, this seems a little fishy.

Legitimate and Serious Question: Do items have a unique identifier assigned to them when they are looted? If so, is there any way to check these things to see if they have been duped or somehow replicated?

Rogean looked into this a few weeks ago and everything was kosher - search for some suitably enraged posts by Illusionz (Sonaa I think).

I suspect the real cause is that a whole bunch of people came back from EQ Mac. Give it a few months, and they'll be back to 250k.

Same reason Donals BPs will probably hit the market soon. It gets too cold and chaffs the priests nipples.

Thing is, if we follow the velious patches, donals bp will be insanely useful for several months during early velious. Can run some hella tight chains with bp clicks for days. Can have people in the back being healed by non chain clr, dru, shm in the back :P Should make fights like aary fairly simple early on.

irrelevant, he wasn't perma rooted in the early patches and he could be LOS'd around the corner. The tank is the only person who has to eat aoes (and i wanna say he quadded for like, 800? it's been a long time) which is more than doable out of the gate. NTOV will be hit hard after key dragons go. Velious launch day is gonna be exciting :P

Even if I have one I really wish they will nerf BP on day one. Theres way too many Donal's BP on the forum and content will be cleared too easy that way imo. Velious is where skilled player will show up the most. There's no skills involved in clicking a BP for 20mins.

It's about the same skill as clicking CH. It just lasts longer. It does make it so numbers / resists / hp aren't as crazy for certain fights, though. Pretty much everything in NTOV sans vulak can be donals'd if they give us the unrooted versions.

soon to be much less useful items = soon to be much less useful items

It's not rocket science. Top end droppable items that get outclassed in Velious = sell sell sell.

Of course, if people listened to the wisdom of Sadre: Velious in 2015! Revamp Kunark!

But no. No one listens to the wisdom of Sadre.
