superior recipe!

so I ran into a level 50 apocalypse: chance for superior damage reciper today and I went to wentworth's to check how much it was worth. 400,000,000 was the last bid in the history and there were 80 people bidding with none on sale! I'm torn between selling it and keeping it! Any suggestions?

Depends. Do you want INF or do you have something that could use that? Think you'll get the rest of the set soon?

I tend to sell, but I don't worry overmuch about IOing out/purpling out characters.

I'd sell the sucker, but that's me.

well it's a ranged recipe set and I don't have any blasters that could use it. I'm fairly new to the game and only have a 50 grav/dom... really squishy! and 50 ss/wp... NOT squishy at all! I think I might just end up crafting it and sellin it! I don't plan on collecting any other ones soon... Thanks for the advice!

You're new?

Definitely sell.

You could fund an entire server worth of toons with that windfall.


Open the pod bay doors, Hal.

If you plan on purping the toon soon, keep. If not, sell... imo.

If you are new, then it's a no brainer. Ranged recipes can, however, be used by controllers.

I would definitely sell. There may come a time when you want to purple out a toon, but it will take a whole lot of time and work before you get the rest of the set, much less other sets, so it's no good to you right now. You can fund an excellent build or builds by just selling that one. So keeping it seems like a bad idea to me.

Besides, when you're new to the game, I would think you would prefer to spend your time discovering all the awesome new stuff rather than working on purpling a toon.

Also voting on sell. Additionally, let me paraphrase Nethergoat's Rule #1 of marketing:

If there are none for sale, and people want it, then the price is too low.

As stated, list yours for more than 400 million. I dunno if I'd go as high as 800, but I'd for sure go 549 or maybe more.

And cheers on your good fortune!

Do you have enough money to pay market fees? If you're in Europe, I'd be happy to give you a little seed money if you need it.

I would sell it now before the market drops out again.


Enjoy your day please.

Thanks for all the advice once again guys, i went ahead and sold it and now I'm rich! WOOOOOHHHHH! Now I'm going to go blow it all in one day! ha ha

Really surprised a certain someone didn't stop in to say "delete" it.

Congrats on your riches btw!!

Outrageous is relative.

I've got a billion that says that 6 months from now they'll be 50% higher on average. I've personally watched some of my investments double or triple in value over the past 30 days.

I'll take that bet

How about you post what they're worth right now and we'll come back in 6 months

I thought the prices on purples were outrageous when they hit 50 million. When I bought a purple set for my blaster, they were running around 30 million at the high end. There has been a long-term upward trend on prices for purples, with apparently a huge jump when the mission architect system was introduced.

The ability to set mission difficulty to x8/+2 or x8/+4 and farm Ouro missions probably has more to do with it now that AE exploits have apparently been shut down. Characters able to solo at that rate can make a ton of inf. There are probably duo combinations out there that make it even faster and more profitable than doing it solo, plus you're likely to get a lot of purple drops slaughtering thousands of minions at level 50.

I think he meant proportionally more of both - which would increase the price maybe?

I think it floats more towards the +inf and the purples were an aside to making inf through sales.

Though if supply of purples generated was higher...

And inf generation was higher...

Wouldn't it stay about the same?

Poor vendors. Where are they going to get their purples from?
