Celestone Information

After seeing a lot of the prices for celestones of all kinds, I wanted to do a thread to help out the community. This is for people wondering what to sell their celestones for and likewise, what to buy them for. This is for prices at the date of this post.

Mirage Celestone=25-30k Seems to be the reasonable rate for Mirage Celestones these days.

Human/Heaven/Earth Celestone=3-10k We will get into this a bit more later on in the post.

Celestone Fragments= 1.5-4k each. We will get into this later as well.

First off, Mirage Celestones are for upgrading your equipment at the Elder. It takes 1 stone for a CHANCE at a +1 rating for armor, and 2 Mirage Celestones for a CHANCE at a +1 for a weapon. When you are successful with an upgrade you will raise the level of that item by 1. When you are unsuccessful, you will either lower the item back to its original state or it will remain unchanged. You will however lose the Mirage Celestone regardless of what happens. Now that we have gone over what they are for we will get into the pricing issues I have seen all over the place, and how you can avoid shopping pitfalls in areas of buying and selling what are some of the most important items in the game.

The Gem Trader will give you Mirage Celestones for either 25 Celestone Fragments or 3 of each of the Earth/Human/Heaven Celestones. So if you look at the pricing up above you can see where the huge discrepancies are between the varieties.
Let's break this down by how many of each lesser celestone we will need in order to make our prize:The Mirage Celestone:

Mirage 25-30k. We can buy one of these at this price and cut out all of the other legwork. Simple enough right?

Human/Earth/Heaven Celestone: 3-10k. Here is where the pricing discrepancy starts. Remember, we need 3 of each of these little beauties to get 1 Mirage. So let's do a little math, and we will even keep it on the cheap side of things.

3 human times 3k=9k, 3 Earth times 3k=9k, 3 Heaven times 3k=9k which then = 1 Mirage at a total of 27k. Not bad. If we are only seeing Mirages at 30k and up, then we are getting a bargain, especially if we aren't patient enough to wait for a better deal. If the are 5k apiece though, and we multiply 9 stones times 5k, we would be spending 45k on one Mirage! That is what shouldn't happen.

Now on to the fragments: 25 Fragments=1 Mirage Celestone. 1 Mirage Celestone should be 25k-30k at the time of this post, correct? So Fragments should therefore cost 1k- to roughly 1.25k each. I see them sell for way more than that! Don't get ripped off.

I have also seen a lot of stores whose inventory prices look a lot like this:

They will have 20 Mirage Celestones for sal for 30k as an example, but they will have their Human/Earth/Heaven at 5k each! The will have Fragments for 2k each! I am writing this part for the people who are selling these at odd prices because:
A.) They suck at math.
B.) They have no idea what the lesser celestones are for.
C.) They see what other uninformed people are selling them for and copy it.
D.) They are hoping to turn a profit off of uninformed players.

I understand players not knowing what any of these things are for. There isn't a lot of information in the item descriptions at all. I just thought this post could help a lot of players trying to figure out what to buy and sell these things for, and at the same time it could help stabilize the market for these items in a way that was beneficial to the PWI Community. Please feel free to post updated pricing and correct any mistakes you see in the post here. I would like to see the economy of this game start to look a little more cohesive. Thanks!
