so people are buying Raps for 400k-430k and cannys aroun 100k-120k on LC. This person was saying how you make more money spending your tokens on Raps and sellign them to cat shops :/ So i tried telling him you get 5 cannys per token and only 1 rap. If you sell that rap your making around 400k were as if you sell those 5 cannys your making around 500k, but noooooooo somehow im wrong and im the **** one b:shocked just thought i would share that with you all b:laughb:laugh

    If rumor is true and raps become 50 or 60 supply tokens=1 rap this maint and cannies remain the same, then cannies will be the only profitable source for merchants and raps will go back up in price/force people to farm nirvana again.

    doubt its true, mans u would get 10 raps each week end (=270 week ends = 5 years), not gonna help with R9 recast, and that was the goal to make it easier to get

    yea, it looked originally like raps were going to be 5x canny price, so i got raps thinking it wouldnt make a difference, robbed me of like 20m first week

    and no they arent going to patch it, just a rumor started by merchanters who want to keep price from dropping so much so they can make a little bit of profit still!

    I sold my canny for 150k which mean 750k for 5 while rapt are 400-500k, I made 10m more than if I've made rapt and sell rapt.

    People being dumb is... nothing new.

    It's how merchants here make money, after all.

    Don't listen to this guy, us merchants provide a real, beneficial and wholesome service to the pwi community, and in return we only extract a *very* nominal and insignificant fee.

    I replied to the 7th topic on the 1st page of mystic forums, and got reported for necro. Plz save mystic forums.

    are those cs'ers who haven't figured out the money they spend on a virtual game that is dying is a total waste of cash. give it to a charity of your choice and use it for something beneficial. see 3rd quarter revenue and 4th quarter estimates on pwrd. the bleeding will not stop because their player base is 20-30% gone this year alone from last year and almost 50% gone the past 2. only ones left in another year will be cs'ers with rerolled alts.

    Well, Nation wars is giving a people a chance who struggle to make money to get suitable gear. Unlike me who spent months farming my full nirvy gear.

    Its good for the people who already have full r9, but what about the poor people who were farming NV/Caster to fund r9?!! I was almost there (weap to go), and now I'm screwed. Also due to timezone NW is not an option for me plus imma cleric so farming HH is not so profitable!

    Rant over =x

    Prices are cheap, is there enough money lying around that you can finance the weapon?

    Most merchants are greedy buttholes, including myself, they only ruin the economy and jack prices up, if for some reason someone sells items for a lower price, they buy all and put the old overpriced tag on it!

    I got cannies. I've seen raps about 550k tops while cannies seem to be at least 130k (which equals 650k raps). So I'm happy enough with my choice on that one.

    Of course, if people stop getting raps and go for cannies, it might balance out over the next few NW. I wouldn't advise hanging on to raps though since the price will only drop.

    Ya I agree ppl jump into things without doing there homework. Do the math 1st. I know prices are different on other servers. I just have to add something, without the dumb ppl we would not make as much money. b:chuckle
