Sudden Price Inflation?

[DMN]

The greater amount of plat on the server should only be relevant for items that are not equally increasing in number. Things like beads, CoS, etc. are not increasing in umber, hence you'd expect them to continually increase in price with plat inflation. But this is not true for things like fungi BPs.

Agreed. I still wonder, how much will 2hb monk items spike when triple attack is placed in game.

In-case anybody wants to know the changes for damage bonuses: http://lucy.allakhazam.com/dmgbonus.html

The big thing to keep in mind is the damage bonus to 2hander changes are mostly for high level characters (droppable 2handers dominate now until ~50 or so anyways). Following the patch, I'd expect a buncha muppets to try and auction every 2hander for a premium not realizing that above bit.

I'd wager T-Staff will probably settle around 60k when the 2h patch goes in. Damage bonus going from 11 to 29 is a pretty big increase and it should outparse Fist + SoS/AC. There's a huge premium people will pay for 'best' on a static server, so I wouldn't expect IFS or Peacebringer to make absurd jumps in prices.

In terms of non-monk 2handers, Narandi Lance is leaps and bounds better than everything else. The 55+ requirement hurts it currently, but this upcoming buff is mostly for 55+ anyways (see above chart). Again, would expect muppets to try to auction their Narandi Lance for an absurd amount, but the reality is there just ain't enough knights. And the warriors wanting to use a 2hander are probably raiding w/ better options. I'd wager lances don't stray too far from where they are now.

They tried hard to gouge once the 44/45 patch went in and then realized every knight has one already and they're falling in price since.

Unfortunately, the way 2h mechanics work combined with terrible piercing skill caps means Narandi is worse than items that go for a fraction of its cost. I wouldn't buy it at its old pre-Chardok revamp price.

It's bad w/ Shadowknights, and Warriors in terms of maximum potential dps.

Paladin post lvl50 skill cap with piercing: 225
Shadowknight post lvl50 skill cap with piercing: 210
Warrior post lvl50 skill cap with piercing: 240

All other melee weapon skills are capped at 225 for Knights, and for Warriors it's 250 making piercing optimal on Paladin's only.

People are dumb with rumors. When the rumor first started about monk triple attack like over a year ago, T staves went from 25-30k to 70k overnight, and then when people got a bit less dumb it died back down to 40-45k which is still too high but w.e

More and more ive been debating another auld style character. I havent joined the guild yet but I like doing a find only type playthrough

Somewhat offtopic, but anyone got any links/evidence of when SK piercing cap changed? Was an undocumented change and shadowknight.org hasnt been a thing for a decade. Best I can find is an allakhazam comment from Jan 2002 talking about the piercing cap for SKs being 225 in reference to Queen dagger.

My gut tells me that went in with the October 2001 patch that changed all the other caps, but my guts been wrong before.

Study the item you wish to buy. Where it drops , what level , what spawn rate etc. Is there better item for sale less etc ? . Don't just blindly buy based on the price someone sets .

For example I saw people selling Crude Steins for 50p when you can get them for practically free .
