I love the market when common salvage sells for 100k because I know I'll be able to get drunk on the delicious tears of 'casual gamers' calling for price caps.

Mope-date!

I'll do a full update when he hits 35 with screens and everything, but here's a funny anecdote.

I figured I'd take him rogue, since he isn't really a villain or a hero, he's just a disaffected amoral teenager. So I ran a bunch of tip missions (which were a lot of fun, love the system, love the implementation, looking forward to future expansion). Ran the morality mission, got smeared by ENDLESS AMBUSHES and had to turn down my difficulty (ambushes totally ignoring stealth is my one remaining gripe about the stalker AT), then finished it....and realized when I read the 'reward' screen that the 50 merits he was sitting on would vanish into thin air.

I'd been planning on saving them all up and rolling at 50, but I didn't want to just throw them away.

So I reluctantly chose to stay villain, then ninja-flipped over to the merit vendor to cash in my bankroll.

The gods of the RNG smiled on my sacrifice- roll 1 was a Mako's Bite proc, roll 2 was (FINALLY!) one of the big ones, a Numina's +rec/+regen.
The first *really good* thing I've ever gotten from old timey TF rolls or merits.

The Mako's was worth a few mill, so I listed it low.
The Numina's at level 34 had 0 listed and a small pile of bidders, so following my Rule of Zero I posted it at a multiple of the last sale. It'll be interesting to see what I get for it, as there were only two previous sales in the history.

Tonight it's back to running tip missions to lay the ground for my alignment shift...

there's no need for an elaborate Rube Goldberg naming system because the current one works just fine.

My concerns about inherent fitness:

Oh noes, what three fun powers will I take instead of swift, hurdle and stamina?


=P

if you aren't hungry for huge profits I've found that you can basically pick an 'okay' set IO out of a hat (something useful but not super duper great), buy up recipes really cheap, buy up salvage really cheap, craft 'em and sell the result for a quick million in profit.

I've done this with enough different recipes to vouch for its effectiveness. And as noted, traditional choices like Thunderstrike and Doctored Wounds are perennial. I've also had great success with the 'off brand' defense sets- Red Fortune specifically, but also Serendipity & Kismet.

If you're happy with a million or so profit per slot with pretty quick turnover, there are a LOT of niches out there that would satisfy.

stay classy, Coming Storm.

I've forgotten why you're on my ignore list, but this thread fully justifies your position.

I'd add one cogent point:


KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT


The main failing of the target of your ire was a near total lack of understanding regarding the topic of his "review".

Tragic.

RIP.

Yes, please!


I yearn for the good old days of someone pulling the entire zone in Perez Park and nuking them!

=P

I haven't been paying attention to purples, but I've made a gigantic killing on PvP IO's I picked up at the 'going rate' just before the merger.
