He has no idea what he's talking about, just ingnore him. I've personally watched players walk onto the server fresh and within a few weeks become very successful traders with plenty of plat and items. I see plenty of good items going for reasonable prices everyday

Well it works for politicians, why not gamers too. Ignoring the obvious for personal gain / self interest that is.

Ikon, people are laughing at you because you think you should be able to buy top-line raid gear at L20. Your L20 character already has gear that drops off of L50 mobs. Are you seriously complaining because you can't buy gear that drops from the highest level mobs in the game right now at L20? The mere fact that this gear is available at all is evidence that we have way more of a market here on P1999 than on Live.

P.S. +1 Loly. The real haves/havenots on this server are the ones that farmed gear that gets taken out, like the manastone, guise, prenerf Fungi staff, etc. If it were up to me these items would be either removed from day 1, left in place permanently, or moved to more challenging mobs, but not "lets leave the gear on the easy mobs and then take it away and screw over everyone who joined a little later".

I dont think u read my posts properly. Im not complaining Im commenting. I never said I should be able to get high end gear for my level 20, I said It looks like if I was level 60 and wanted to buy top droppable gear it would cost multi million. Theres a massive dif there.

[Splorf22]

And you are still wrong. IF I wanted to assemble the maximum droppable gear ranger (note that this includes God/Dragon loot which would never be available for sale on Live):

Tolan's BP 150k
Tolan's Legs 150k
Cloak of Flames 150k
NoS 40k
RBG 50k
Fingerbone Hoop: 20k
Enshrouded Veil: 10k
Other slots: 50k tops

= 620k

If you pass on the BP/Legs which aren't game changing items compared Thorny Vine and then get a Dark cloak of the Sky+RBB instead of the CoF/RBG, you can save yourself 400k. and get 99% of BiS effectiveness for 250k tops.

On the other hand, if you group in Sebilis/HS from 50+ your groups will be making 3kpp or more per hour. It takes maybe 30 hours of XP per level, so 300 hours x 500pp = 150k. So basically you would do it like every other ranger, buy the RBG/NoS and such and get the CoF + Tolans from raiding.

Of course the only guild that does Trakanon/VS right now is TMO, and the competition on the high end raid scene is ugly and fierce, but its far from impossible.

Ikon, I already established that you are, in fact, complaining. What you are doing (expressing discontent about a situation) is the exact, dictionary definition of the word.

Others AND I have established that you are greatly exaggerating the prices of items on the server and how difficult it is to make money by playing the market and how few people are buying and how rich how many people are.

Unless you want to do something other than keep COMPLAINING without basing your COMPLAINTS in FACT... shut teh hell ups.

Fish, you need to look up the correct definition of "established", heres a hint, it isnt a likely incorrect self serving opinion.

I looked up the definition of "complaint" in a dictionary. Your jabbering in this thread matches the definition perfectly. If you want to prove otherwise, go for it. If not, at least stop claiming that I'm just stating unfounded opinions when I am the one of the two of us providing reasoning and support to the statements I make.

I, among others, provided examples and explanations that demonstrate the market is not such as you describe it. You have not only not provided anything to demonstrate that you are correct or that we are wrong, but your description of your ranger and his gear and how you got it helps OUR position.
