DOUBLE REFINEMENT what a joke 2 hours ago 99 Empowered Runestones cost 8000 ads now they cost 25000-30000, so I got 3 times as much for my ads, havent used them yet soo Nice bonus and I have enough to turn my Plaguefire atleast to rank 12.
My point is there are to many shamless profitiers who think the majority of players are stupid, So don't buy Refinement from the Auctions now wait until the event is over and then buy and bank your runestones for the next event, stop the shamless profitiering, I hate it everyting I sell I put up at the cheep rate, Or give it away to friends.
Oh and Don't reply with comments about markets and Economy, its got nothing to do with it, This is the sort of activity you expect from someone who would sell a 50p bottle of water to person Dying of thirst for £500 when the Nuclear war has just started and frankly would have no need for his cash post Apoc.
No I'm not whining just stating fact, if you pay 3 times the usual value then your refinment cost's 150% for the same amount SO YOU LOOSE OUT!
now were the profiteers being fair they may add 10 or 20% to their stacks of Runestones but to triple the cost..... Speaks for itself. Wrong in anyones Economy.

We are looking for non elitist guilds to join our alliance.
Thats actually the cleanest way to make money!
Supply and Demand. It's that simple.
You are feeding the AD market by allowing this, which if I remember correctly was the reason PWE changed a bunch of things in this game over the past 6 weeks.....
You are right in saying, that paying more than double for something that only gives you double RP is not wise.
But you are forgetting an important thing:
During 2xRP you get 2x RP for feeding an artifact, and when you feed that one into another one, you get 5x2x the RP AND again 2x for the event.
This makes runestones and enchantments more than double as efficient, which results in an appropriate higher price.
Besides this, I'm with you, when you try to explain seemingly obvious mistakes and asking people to be more cautious. There should be no reward for stupidity, but educating is a worthy goal and I approve.
But do not criticise other people for not meeting your personal standards. Pushing the price higher than usual and fooling people, making them take studpid decisions would be shameless. This is just people, not wanting to feel stupid by declining offers other people are willing to pay. People wanting to earn a profit, so they are able to buy other things, that are important to them and feeling lucky, that they don't have to put as much work into it, because they were able to identify an opportunity.
Sure, you can criticise capitalism at large and try to support fair trade. But I doubt, that everything you consume and buy is completely fair trade and not the result of any kind of "shameless profiting" of other people, which, by the way, you support with these buyings. (Just the computer, which you use to play this game is evidence)
So please, keep down the namecalling and telling us that you are better than us.
Farm when you can and feel like it. Buy items when you like the prices. Sell items when you like the prices. RP prices, artifacts, and artifact equipment, all fall between 2xRP events because of people desperate for a sale NOWWWWWW.
Plan ahead. Seriously. Don't blame others for things you didn't choose to do, or for catering to other people who make bad decisions.
I don't like being overly mercenary on the AH, but I also never buy items when I know their prices are inflated or can be relatively certain an upcoming event will bring the price down, and I don't sell my items when I know that an event is going to make them worth more. Thanks for all the fish.

Hence my suggestion: Just don't buy...
Anyone buying them at 20k is just stupid.
Just because some of you won't save (and I'm a f2p who works full time, so you all have my earning capacity) and won't or can't make smart purchasing decisions, don't expect the rest of us to voluntarily drag ourselves down to your level.
There are some good life lessons for people here . . .
Saving - good
Setting goals and sticking to them - good
Making smart purchasing decisions with your money (i.e. knowing the value of something before you buy) - good
Planning for the future - good
If you on here complaining about fluctuations in the market resulting from the age old issue of supply and demand, well you can probably figure what the bad behaviours are by looking at what you've been doing to get in the position that you are in.
