    Wait, I'm confused. you guys are seeming to imply that 400k exp for the cost of an FC green is a great deal....Last I checked, FC greens sold for 800k+. Granted, that was several months ago, but that price had been steady for a very long time (1 year+).

    Trading coin for experience 2:1 seems absolutely terrible. I get some 480k exp for crazy stone, and that's like 75k?

    Someone explain this to me b:sad

    It's mostly for the purpose of a drop. And depending on your server they aren't even close to that cost. On my server you can still get quite a few if you wanted at a 1:1 ratio. And before this became public you could have it as much as 1:10 ratio when I was getting them at like 40k each initally.

    You're limited in the amount of times you can do crazy stone per day. You aren't limited in the amount of Orders of Blessing you can use at once.

    Basically it's a nice 'bump' to speed up the mind-numbingly tedious process. Gain exp via whatever your usual method is until your bar meets up with the amount of exp you have banked up, then go ding yourself.

    If you study it, the gear has better stats than tt90 green gear, i have a set of the HA fc armor i keep for my ha toons as i level them, its not bad gear at all plus its cheaper than tt90 and can be socketed cheaper as well.
    Edit: not taking into account the extra attributes of tt90 versus fc gear though, im too lazy to do it

    Ok I still don't get it. Trading coin for exp at 1:1 is still TERRIBLE. If you get it as a drop, you're better off selling it in AH and buying your way into mobs/heads.

    /still confused...

    Edit: I can't read, 1:10 Ratio is pretty good I suppose, but I never saw the FC gear selling for that cheap

    This stuff was a great income on my FrostCovered way to 105, most of the drops of course come from the last bosses , even got some gold rings from the bird boss. So it was nice basically fcc Paid for fccing , tons of hypers , food and pots used till i finished. b:victory

    Edit: I sold every piece for 1.5-1.6mil , it all sold , always. I never knew why, till now.

    No offense I don't expect you as a a sin at that to understand the point of it.

    You can only Hyper so many times in a day. You can only do so many dailies in a day before you run out of things to do. Currently if hypers are used correctly in PV instead of wasted in FF and all major dailies are done for exp (MQ/BQ/Morai/cs/cube/etc). (PV gives MUCH better exp btw) you sit at about 15mil exp for the day(in 3hours worth of time). Thats where those FF greens came into play either by drops or purchased. Those can boost the amount of exp you gained for the day a little bit further. When I was 104 I set a goal to try to get 17.5mil exp a day which is exactly 1% exp. So I was buying 6 Green FF pieces a day ranging from 40-200k each but torward the last few months I prety much bought out all of the supply so I had to resort to worldchatting which caused more people in my server to start to figure out what I was doing and caused the prices to raise.

    I'm pretty sure there are others who do this as well.

    Unfortunately at the prices you quoted,those are NOT gonna happen at my server. Cheapest FC green gear costs around 400k cheapest in RT. Maybe somebody did find out in my server as well but rather sell it out

    You could still run TT and make the greens yourself. Then you have the option whether to merchant the greens or use them for XP & stuff.
