i was wrong D:. I originally estimated that r9 would be on sale for at least 50% (Pure conjecture ). I guess it was more hope then anything b:cry

    Still very much possible for such a sale to happen.

    R9?! I wish...

    I'm still grasping to get NV pants for my R8, which will probably take another 40+ hrs of farming. Not to mention NV Dags. However, my oceans do more dmg then NV dags, so I may just skip them and save for tome or.... just focus on the other 6 alts. lol

    I highly doubt it. R9 is going to be the top gear for awhile, and it's already cheap enough that it's possible to farm for full R9 without putting in any gold, while still expensive enough that the lazy ones can charge a few hundred gold to help out their farming.

    If they discounted 50% it would really hurt the long - term profits of the game.

    My prediction was/is based off the fact that there is a new expansion with new endgame gear incoming. Its only logical that r9 will be on sale for a discount (At least in my mind)

    The new end-game gear is PvE only, so for PvP r9 will still be the best.

    They've no reason to cut prices on R9 really, there are some people on Sanctuary with more than 1 r9 character.

    The new armor and weapon provided in the up coming expansion is ****. Not sure of the set bonus yet, but I expect that to also be **** as the status on the armor pieces has been confirmed to be ****. I can't find a better word to describe it other than **** b:surrender...I think it was mentioned by Asty in her post on the other thread that the armor piece offered no better protection than the TT90 one. I would expect the gold to be maxed out at 2 mil each in the AH if the price for the general summer sale is lowered. Wonder how people would be able to get gold then for those who don't charge zen.

    doing a major sale on gear that is top of the line at a time where nothing else is present would not be logical... however if say next year the next expansion has new gear that you are able to farm I would guess that the expansion after may include some rank upgrade gear... in the event they are going to invalidate the Rank 9 with a Rank 10 then it would be a good guess to say 50% or whatever off Rank 9

    The new armor will be a lot better than TT90 in PVE but even in PVE R9 will still win I think. In PVP though it will be total ****, TT90 defense with a bit more HP.

    Well Rank 9 has already been superseded by recasted R9. They would start selling the recast R9 mats before any rank 10.
