    - But nothing about that has changed. Why are they doubling in value now?

    less people playing = less resources
    less resources = higher prices?

    That sucks. I sold mine for 90k a few weeks ago. Now I find out I could have gotten double that amount?

    200k is enough to buy character slots for the archer class that is coming (eventually).

    :(

    Because previously people were trivially able to 'obtain' high end enchants through nefariousness means, whereas now you actually need to get the enchants and wards. (AFAIK of course - there are probably a few exploits running along still quite happily.....)

    Logging on daily, especially with multiple characters, is trivial, but doing it over a longer period of time requires an attention span that is longer a match against a premade.

    More people are level 60, thus more people are fusing shards and rank7+ enchants now, so more coalescent wards are needed.

    Because other players still pay for it. If demand is higher then supply, prices go up.

    2 things.

    First. More people are reaching 60 and are needing them. More people are using them instead of selling. And more people are buying them. Higher demand = higher price.

    Second. About the week before launch the value of your AD dropped dramatically. It went from 270AD/Zen to 350AD/Zen. It took a bit for this increase to reach them, but now it takes a bit more AD to buy stuff.

    Due to buying HotN and Guardian pack I have 6 char slots, I have gotten them all to level 11 and then pray everyday with them, every 7 days I get 6 chances to get a blue ward, on average I get 1-2 a week.

    Would be a nightmare if I didn't have all these alts trying to get enough of these silly wards that cost so much. I guess you could make loads of free accounts and do it that way, but you still need a friend you can trust to help transfer them over to your main... :(

    I think you might have been fairly lucky as 16-33% seems quite high. From what I have seen chances of a blue ward are closer to 10%. Still perhaps I have just been unlucky :(

    I have 2 characters, have prayed every day for two months and not had a single blue ward out of any of the weekly boxes. Done with it now.
