  1. I am for it--even if for a real money fee.

    Though I think another inf sink would be nice too.

    Ah well. At least I'll have some inf waiting for me blue-side when GR hits.

  4. I was set to some in and bid 40mil.

    How disappointing.
  5. Yeah, pretty much that's it--build better.
    Go ahead and slot for end reduction in your attacks.

    It's not really that big of an obstacle.

    That certainly explains my (apparently) slow progress

    How much of your cane stash is red side?

    If you have that few canes and want to sell them, the AH would probably be your best bet.
    Redside, they're going for about 45k to 70k last I looked.


    I am looking to buy thousands of candy canes
    and
    I have thousands of candy canes for sale

    If anyone is interested, prices are negotiable. If not, then I'll just see everyone in several months on dump day.

    Watching the market, I theorize that there may one to three other people who have stashes at least as big as mine. These are the people I would especially like to hear from-- for obvious reasons.
  11. I would like to thank everyone for their testimonials.

    I should now also mention that if anyone would like to get in on the great profits to come ...
    I am willing to share a special offer available exclusively to the savvy investors of the Market Forum. I will sell lots of 1,000 canes for 400,000,000.

    Special prices available for toon capping quantities.

    Selling 1,000 canes for 500,000 apiece would yield a 100,000,000 profit
    Selling 1,000 canes for 1,000,000 apiece would yield a 600,000,000 profit

    Low information browsers probably don't have fat stacks of canes.

    Out of curiosity, what's your best guess about how large demand will be?
  • 'Cause I'll haggle.

    There's fun in that.

    But via PM or tell please

    Decreased demand for portable hardware and software and an early Easter holiday this year combined to make April the fourth largest year-over-year decline for the video game industry.
    http://online.wsj.com/article/BT-CO-...atestheadlines
    Electronic Arts Inc. (ERTS) said videogame sales across the industry likely dropped sharply in April, more evidence that a business once seen as recession-proof is feeling the pressure of thriftier consumer spending.
    So the numbers may not be specific to CoX's particular situation, but rather the result of factors that effect the whole industry.
  • So, are you guys telling me these things to open the haggling?

    Or are you just trying to talk me into dumping my canes on the market at the same time as everybody else so we can all profit from a market glut before the event?
  • I will buy your candy canes in bulk, Redside on the Freedom server.
    5,000,000 inf for 100 canes
    11,000,000 inf for 200 canes
    18,000,000 inf for 300 canes
    26,000,000 inf for 400 canes
    35,000,000 inf for 500 canes
    45,000,000 inf for 600 canes
    56,000,000 inf for 700 canes
    68,000,000 inf for 800 canes
    81,000,000 inf for 900 canes
    100,000,000 inf for 1,000 canes
    If you have fewer than 100 canes that you would like to sell, I'll pay about 27,500 inf apiece for them.

True, my damage was low for AoE and my use of ET or TF was saved for Bosses, EBS or AVs but that never mattered since I used him for teaming, and damage was brought by the damage dealers.
    Sounds just fine for a tank.

    So folks who would like to see changes to EM are the flies, and ... uh ... what?

    I was under the impression that -tohit (on enemy) is roughly the equivalent of +def (on toon).

    If this is indeed true, the -tohit could be helpful.

    More or less that's what I suggested.

    I'd be happy with any combination of those things. The gist of it is that it would be a MUCH better set if WH did a little better job at keeping minions stunned.

    IMHExperience, that would be sufficient to bring EM up to par w/ SM.

    Though I would be very happy to trade some damage, end cost, or recharge (or some combination thereof) for activation speed from either TF or ET too.

    I have a SM/WP brute and a EM/WP brute. The EM has purple sets and better survivability numbers (def, res, regen, hp, etc) than the SM.
    And there's not a single thing that the EM can do that the SM can't.
    However, there's a lot that the SM can do that the EM can't.

    I don't understand the context of your comment.

    That's not a nice way to talk about people who give out money.

    I pay buy it nao prices all the time. Why not? My real life time is way more valuable than inf.

    If I am not trying to purple and PVPIO out a toon, there's scads of cash on my account. For PVE, frankenslotting does wonders and is not that expensive of a proposition. Sure you may not get all of the fancy set bonuses, but haveing two to three SOs worth of enhancement per category (ACC, REC, DAM, END-RED, etc) does wonders when it comes to killing spawns.

    And as much cash as I have (which is not as much as many folks do) I have a hoard of IOs that are part of my 401k. Whenever I get ready I will take oneout and sell it. In the meantime I earninterst on them (via inflation).

    So, yeah, I'll pay 100k for some salvage if I have to so I can craft what I want when I get around to spending my time doing the drone work of marketeering and/or crafting.


    To everyone whose stuff I buy, "You're welcome very mcuh. Thanks for having stuff available when I want it."
