Market for Nation Wars

Hey guys, just wanted to bring up something. I'm sure everyone has noticed that raptures and cannies are losing value with every nation war that takes place. In my server (Archosaur), raptures have fallen from 100k to 80k in just over 2 weeks. More and more people are acquiring the resources necessary to make their nirvy casted armor and weapons, so naturally the demand for raptures/cannies has fallen to a point where there is an excess supply.

Here's my question: do you guys think that raptures and cannies will become so cheap that they become worthless? I'm hoping that the prices are approaching a limit and will rebound once people notice that raps and cannies are no longer worth selling.

Another question is what to do with supply tokens once the rapture/canny market becomes flooded. I noticed that people are buying up r8 recast mats and Seal of Wars. Should I start investing in these? I hope to make the most out of my supply tokens, but each week I've been making less and less moolah off them. Thanks in advance b:victory

    Why don't you check the forges, and find it out by yourself?

    First people complain that prices keep going up and up and up.

    NOW people complaining about prices going down and down and down.


    only thing left is to complain the prices stay the same, same, same.

    Okay...I've already done my research, I just wanted some nice opinions, but I guess that's too much to ask. At least answer my first question regarding rapture and canny price. What's contributing to price falls? Not enough 100+ people to buy off the supply? R9r getting cheaper? Whispers of R10's release? Or will prices make a bounce back? Any economists play this game?

    *Sorry for posting in the wrong section, I will be more careful in the future

    Prices are dropping because fewer people need raps/cans. The only reason the price stayed as high as it did is because of the people who have R9 and wanted to recast it. So eventually the price of rap/can will approach zero with only a few people wanting to make new nirvy or the random person who just gets r9 on another toon.

    So, Rap/Can will continue to be near worthless unless new content is added that will require their use. As to what do do with your tokens, i leave that up to you as it is completly server dependent.

    You don't have to be an economist to know basic supply and demand rules...

    My advice is dont expect to make money from Nw after a certain point and I fully expect it to eventually become a break even with the charm price type deal.

    To fully r9 final cast yourself as well as upgrade ring and tome should keep you busy doing Nw for a long long time. Personally I will not buy them so much as just earn my own as time goes on. Maybe that'll change if they get to like 50k a piece or something. Better to save actual coin for such things as dragon orbs/gems.
