    Selling level 50 recharge IOs for 300,000 or less is IMO not very clever. At the rate you're earning (only accounting for the time you actually spend making the enhancements and posting them) you'd be far far better off spending your time doing task forces for merits (and inf) and then spending the merits on Miracle +Recovery IOs and selling them for around 200 million a shot.

    What you're doing is a relative waste of your time. You'll find players will pay 400,000 and even if you aren't the only one selling at that price you'll still be getting a much better return on your investment of time.

    PS. If your intention is to undercut everyone else trying to make a reasonable profit, to drive us out of the market so you can then raise your prices and still have the whole market then you can forget it, because I'm not going anywhere (and I very much doubt I'm the only one). I'm going to keep checking the prices in Wentworth, forcing you to grind away your time as that's the only way you're going to keep me from making a reasonable profit from my time. You want to work at this like it's a real job? Be my guest. It's your time to waste. When I'm not checking the market I'll be the one doing TFs and making your rate of return look pathetic.
    Oh ye of little knowledge! You look at generic IOs at huge profit makers? You aim too low!

    +recovery recipe can be bought between 80 - 100 mill [add5 mill max for salvage]
    +recovery crafted IO sells for between 150 - 200 mill

    I see your generic IOs and spit on them!

    I craft and sell generic IOs and put them up for 10inf automatically, whats 100k these days? A boss kill or something?

    The snag is most people who live here forget to see the good stuff.
    When you see things almost on a daily basis you tend to forget though that it is a good tourist attraction.

    Cardiff castle for one i see almost every single day when i go to town yet i've only ever been in there once Though if i was a tourist, i'ld probs make that one of the first things i went to see [followed by the millenium stadium and new cardiff bay].

    Any regrets?

    Rather than go into all the convoluted silliness (which covers over 2 dozen spreadsheets); suffice it to say that if the developers change the game significantly I feel like re-writing my rules to incorporate the new play-elements. When this happens I delete ALL my characters... no matter how many... no matter how high a level... and start them all over at level 1.

    The last time I did this was when Mission Architect was brought out. I have a strong, gut sinking feeling that Going Rogue will see me doing yet another system-wide reboot.
    Let me get this right, when inventions [im guessing?] and mission architect came out, you deleted all your characters to start them off again?

    Any regrets?

    Have you ever done something in game and regretted it completely? If so, what is it? Prevent others from doing the same mistake!

    Mine was about 2 years ago, i was funding a major summer long event and with the prizes stated i actually ended up quite a bit short of the funds needed.

    My main character at the time that i was playing was a level 45 warshade [shadow waster] that i was loving because of how strong he was. Yet to fund the competition fully i decided to respec him and sell ALL of his enhancements [was mostly generic IOs with a few obvious special ones].
    Well the competition went great, everybody was happy, i went to play my warshade and well . . . . he was nerfed beyond saving! I had got so used to being a god as him that i just couldnt play him anymore unslotted and he had no money on him to buy more IOs! [i have this strange thing where i dont transfer money over to fund characters. They have to fund themselves!]

    Thus, he has stayed on the shelf for 2 years now coming out now and then and each time making me let out a little "sniff" at how good he used to be . . . . . . .

    Dont unslot your characters!

    I have even seen team leader broadcast LFM 47 or higher that have AT LEAST have SOs in all slots! That was in PI of course for AV missions and I think, and understand, the guy was tired of 9 levels with training orgin, or no enhancements at all, joining up to powerlevel and bringing absolutely nothing of value to the team except more minions, lieutenants, etc to battle.
    Well to be fair that is reasonable. Obviously wouldnt count for all, but think its safe to say that the majority of characters that are of that level without any slots have been PL'd or will be more of a nuisance than wanted.
  19. I had a similar amount of them too Very annoying having the txt messages to say i have a new email from COH only to find out its something i received literally 2 minutes ago

    Well can you blame us after watching GG promote this hostility between us, in how many posts are there now? (I've stopped counting)
    We just fear her animosity has infected the rest of you wonderful players
    They have GG and you got damz Oh the terrors!

    I personally LOVE a friendly rival between servers!

    Union is better! Bring it on you deafants!

    Of course I'd fully expect some long-term fallout (of current EU players) and a short-term disaster as I'd expect players to disperse throughout the bigger NA servers upon a list merge in order to see what they're like. The worst scenario (regarding any EU 'community') would be if a dispersal happened like this and a signifiant proportion of players decided not to return to their old servers... but that would be individual choice.

    Heck if we wanted to try out the US servers upon a merge it'd maybe be better if we tried to do soen masse to one or two agreed servers.

    A list merge only kills off the Union/Defiant servers if their player base doesn't feel it's worth saving and lets it die.

    (Not forgetting Zukunft/Vigilance - but I wouldn't presume to have any real idea of what their players would prefer to do).

    I know i would make some new alts on some of the other servers but i would still play my union characters too though.

    One thing is for certain though, i would keep any EU chat channels constantly open
