If your guild is selling PoSky belts, maybe they should put that energy into getting passed Island 4.

If your guild? hehe, i dont know what you talking about here but seen the sky item for sale a while back, just letting the community know theres other options besides the FBSS and why i think it should be lowered. But apart from what i was saying earlier, if you are 46+ most likely can try to get the dragon haste item as well. Kunark they say in 6 month, but might be even longer then this.

WTB MORE TWINKS.

in my opinion the econ problems are due to the available amounts of platinum, not as much about supply and demand

You can't put a sky belt on a character below 46 >< So FBSS still stands firm for anyone below 46, and alot of those are going to be twinks. Whether by their own means, or means of friends, they'll keep rolling in.

WTS Fbss 18k pst

This is true. With nothing better to do, and better knowledge of good farming spots, everyone is making more plat. Still, the idea of saving up 15k for anything sounds time consuming and boring as a Warrior. But unfortunately with the way camps locked down that may be the only option.

[Absentia]

Why do you feel you have to buy anything as a Warrior? Just hit lvl 46 and start doing runs in the Planes for your gear.

In classic the group cleric got most the gem drops to pay for peridots. With all the solo/duo farming those gems are turning into fat wallets in EC.

I don't remember that ever happening, but I could be wrong!

the thing that sucks the worst is the only ones who can afford half the shit worth owning are the ones who farm everything and sell it for crazy high amounts to get rich, its a vicious spiral, and its only going to get worse when kunark comes out, all these people who have all these high end camps on lock down selling everything for crazy high amounts hoarding all the plat, will do the same thing in kunark, then other rich people will pay their crazy inflated prices, and it will continue to get out of control.

I remember a few weeks ago trying to buy a torch for my mage's focus item, offering up 300 plat for it, which IMO is on the high side for that item, I must have had 4 different people tell me no, they are holding out for 500+ because they know they can get that from a level 50 twinking an alt.

its pretty discouraging that if you want a fbss, you almost have to wait for the level 50 soloing the camp to get one then pay 15k+ for it, instead of being able to bring in a group, have some fun, get some exp, and get the item you need.

we should rename P1999 the farm server, either your farming all the high end gear to sell at inflated prices , or spending your life farming plat to buy said inflated high end gear.
