the unfortunate part of this story is that in order to survive the grueling hours of HoT with BDA, I was forced to smoke many grams of cannabis IRL. I ended up dropping my beads while looting corpse one time and they went as easy as they came.

typical BDA
As a PSA can you please explain your technique you use to loot your corpse so that others can avoid a similar fate?

item price based on strength of item, very simple. topor, HEB , bio orb, fungi, fungi staff, ect.. these items give Unique effects and cost a lot becasue something has to cost alot.

I'd grant custody to the fact that if shaman spells were cheap then the server would be 50% shamans instead of 35%

ya. i had beads out to click in one of my 2 inventory slots i'm sure. I liked to fly my Eye of Zomm up Chest's asshole to discover secrets of the Loot Council; and then the rest of my bags were full (for instance i used to carry 20 root nets because BDA members were too retarded to wait 5 seconds for aggro during 8 hour HoT grinds). And then you get your VP key, your SEB key, your HS Key, and your ST key (if you weren't in BDA), taking up 3-4 slots of your 8 slot rez-inventory. and basically when you loot your corpse you have to find the bag with the slot open and loot that first. if you fuck up one of your items gets kicked to the ground, and i think this is how the beads dropped.

If this is true than the item no longer dropping wouldn't cause a change in price....or do you think its a coincidence that the price took off when they removed it from the game? Surely, the "strength" of the item didn't increase at all.

Why so upset though? Someone pee in your cheerios?

I had a few hate tells, indeed, during my 6-8 months of tunnelquesting. Total probably under 10 (who knows how many were from the same guy...)

I always filed them under either Jealousy or Drugs, smiled softly, and moved on.

It's all supply and demand, literally nothing else.

Item being strong means there's more demand.

Item no longer dropping means there's less supply.



You can have an item that no longer drops but isn't strong / useful. Supply is low but demand is low as well - price stays low. Example: Gem Encrusted Ring.

You can have an item that still drops but is strong / useful. Demand outmatches the supply - price is high. Example: AoN, Fungi, Left Goblin Ear (yes, 30 plat per common, stackable lvl 20 mob drop is a damn high price).

Don't skip them economics classes!

I understand. I was pointing out that his idea that the item's "strength" is the sole determiner of its price. Obviously isn't true.

The more we talk about this, the more it'll go up right? The traders at it again.
