One Billion Influence, No SL50s

Posted

I finally hit the One Billion influence mark on my main. Here's the obligatory screenshot.

On June 23, 2008, I started with just under 55M influence. I played very casually and applied the specific techniques mentioned in these forums. I never farmed merits or tickets (I've only made two merit rolls and one bronze ticket roll) and my highest level character is SL38.

If I can do it, anyone can.

There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan.

Well done!

Care to provide an anecdotal on "very casually" and which techniques? ...or at least which technique worked the best for ya.

Not trying to be a PITA, but a little context may help those out there who continue to struggle with the markets and/or blame the wealthy for their woes.

I've been rich, and I've been poor. Rich is definitely better.
Light is faster than sound - that's why some people look smart until they speak.
For every seller who leaves the market dirty stinkin' rich,
there's a buyer who leaves the market dirty stinkin' IOed. - Obitus.

It looks like he lowballed on recipes then vendored them. That would be why he has bids on glimpse of the abyss, i would think.

There are badges for earning inf via defeats but not from the market.

Actually, I did some of that early on with standard IO recipes, but that's not why I'm bidding on Glimpse of the Abyss. I actually craft and slot those.

Most of my influence was made in buying set IO recipes, crafting them, and selling the enhancements. Over time, I've worked through a variety of level 50 recipes and a few that max out at 40.
