ok, i think there needs to be guidelines for ridiculous sos gear /weps prices..
its not as rare as everyone make it out to be... there is alot of sos stuff out in the various servers, just everyone don't want to get rid of it cheap or for a fair price so the store it and whine about not getting enough..

so i am whining here.. muahahha..
i have always helped out lower lvl players with sos gear.. or any stuff for that matter..
some idiot was selling a lvl 24 sos bow crit 5.. ooooh 1 crit above stock.. wow.. anyhow.. no blues.. no plus.. for 9 mill... i laughed my butt off..
i can possibly see if it had a crit of 10 plus with a few blues and a plus 3 to whatever.. and go from there..

and what gets me even more pissed off.. alchemy.. pple create stones.. and turn round sell them for 500k.. OMFG... buy some void rondo and break down the crap you can pick up from your kills.. and use them tablets and elements., to make STONES,, wow.. for what.. almost freaking free?? save yourself.. what 458k?? lol..

ans since we on the subject.. and way way off topic... can i get a OMFG to the stallers?? idle player eating up bandwidth to sell over priced CRAP!! fake gold for FAKE GOODS!! MUAHAHAH

ok im done ranting and raving.. so i can say don't flame but i guarantee some noob is gunna do it..

Yes, there's a lot of SOS stuff. Yes, its all drastically overpriced. BUT i haven't really seen SOS of the same item. I might see a lvl 3x SOS then a lvl 2x SOS then a lvl 4x SOS. But mostly not the same wep or armor. Although there's a lot of SOS stuff, its different items that hardly repeat. That's why its so expensive.
And OMG why do SOS prices jump from 1-2mil to freakin' 8-10mil at lvl 32???



its not that easy. well, at least not for me. Stones take A LOT of elements. And most mobs drop 2+ different kinds of items that give a range of elements. If I had the gold, i'd rather buy stones than sit and grind for 2+ hrs hoping to get enough elements for 1 freakin' stone. But yes, stone prices are outrageous, also. Although i have been guilty of selling stones for 300k and more.



Yes, prices are NOT fair, they're WAY overpriced. But stalling is the only way to make a decent amount of money in this game to afford the high prices (irony?). So, i'm not mad at the stallers. I leave my stall running all night most of the time and still won't sell a full stall of items sometimes. Extensive stalling is almost as necessary as killing mobs.

I'm guilty for selling SoS gear at high prices. So far, in my 31 levels of the game, I've gotten 5 SoS drops:

Pure White Shoulder (Armor, Female) - Sold for 200,000
Pure White Casque (Armor, Male) - *Sold for 1,500,000
Holyword Suit (Garment, Female, INT 2) - **Sold for 700,000
Quartz Ring (Jewelry, +2, INT3, STR 3) - Sold for 200,000
General Blade (+2, STR 3, INT 2) - ***Sold for 3,500,000

* - I put this Casque up for kicks. I was planning on wearing it, but if someone wanted to buy it for that much then by all means, buy!
** - Again, I put this Suit up for kicks. A clan member was planning on wearing it when she got to that level.
*** - I was randomly offered 3,500,000 for my General Blade. I'll take it.

Now I'm too sure just how bad 200,000 is for the Shoulders and Ring, but I know the Casque, Suit and Blade are just rediculous, but if someone wants t pay that much, then by all means, go ahead.

no one ever sells their som weapons, thats why the prices are sky high, damn whores

i thank you one and all.. for adding to this thread.. touches me in a special place..

oh... I'll touch your special place... lol.


on topic: yes, sos are overpriced, no stallers are not stupid, they are smart. Yes it is gold bots who cause a lot of lag. No people dont sell their SOM, and yes people need to think a bit before putting up the prices they do on their SOx shit.

however.... Since people are able to go out and buy 10 million gold for like 8 dollars, a lot of people do, and therefore they dont really care how much they spend on items, or if they are overpriced. They ruin the economy and this is why everything costs as much as it does.

thanks. lol.

yea, people would probably rather spend their money buying a few million gold than buying gold ticket or something

I don't even want to see the prices in these stalls.

Donwhang's become more of a joke now for SOS/SOM/SOSun prices...

I think people don't sell SOM or SOSun b/c they're just that rare. Maybe the oldest 3 servers have a lot, but i've only seen 1 SOM weapon (lvl 3x bow). And rumor is that's the ONLY SOM weapon on Venice with NO SOSun. As far as clothes, there's still not nearly as much SOM/sun as SOS. But this is on Venice, I don't know about the other servers.

umm, venice has to have more than 1 som... i dont believe it.

I'm sure it does. But about 2 weeks ago I asked someone if their shield was SOM and he replied that there were no SOM weapons or shields on the server. I thought about it, and I had never seen a single SOM weapon on Venice. Then, about 2 days ago one of my friends showed me a SOM bow in someone's stall. It's the only one i've ever seen. If its not the only one, its one of the VERY few SOM weapons.

[edit]My friend just saw another SOM weapon. It was a SOM spear.
