I saw someone post a link to the database with this in it. I cannot find it myself. So if anyone throws a link it would be appreciated.

    That's the one. Thanks.

    And I know it doesn't exist. I just wanted to look at it in case it is employed later.

    trade 20 tokens for a random prize? Looks interesting. Has a crafting service too.

    yes... 240k (on HT) for 3 chances of ****. or the chance to kill any chance of profit in nirvana. That leaves next to nothing to farm for coin if this is implemented -_-

    They did this once, when black raptor appeared ... U trade 20 tokens for a price in a npc close to Dragon Director.

    This kind of trade will be available soon, as we will see. And R9 made cheaper some way... Like they did with R8 before, maybe with R10 xD from boutique or another fail like that.

    I'll not surprised about that, and is the reason I don't use cash here, u don't know what they will do to get more money.

    Do not see how this kills any chance of profit in nirvana. Farming still costs nothing but your time.

    And if 4 or 5 people try to get R9 recast altogether on one server it would really hurt average players since the availability of uncannies and raptures would become scarce.

    Token market would become highly profitable considering how many tokens it would take.

    People are lazy to run nirvana as it is unless its x2. Uncanny are barely scraping over 310k and Raps are around 1.4. With such gambling it would lower Uncanny down to ~250k and Raps under 1mil. After cost of repair and split the net gain of coin is about the same as if you were to be a Plvler noob which I refuse to do.

    I doubt it would be that dramatic.

    12,000 uncannies would take 240,000 tokens. Which is 16,000 packs if my maths are not failing me. And if you look in token shops on RT, I do not see enough tokens right now to even make a solid dent into that. So uncannies and raps that are farmed would still maintain most of their value.

    If anything it would hike token prices up, not drive Nirvana prices down. Afterall Nirvana mats have no NPC price while tokens do. Tokens are also in high demand currently for everything from skill slips to pots while Nirvana is neglected for R9.

    10800 cannies and 2700 raps for full r9 recast by that method. Yes in that theory if people wanted r9 recast that bad they could do it by this method, however there are tons of players (sins.) who still want nirvana and will be buying those mats. I know that uncanny would drop to about that price since the % to obtain it is so high via packs. And Raps is my speculation since 7% is a pretty good odd too.


    Easiest example of this is Ultimate Substances. Look what they used to cost ~60k?
    when packs came out they dropped down to like 35k and now they are like 10k because of BH rewards.

    This quest is limited to 10 times per day, i think per account so it's not really spammable.

    the price of the uncanny and rap wouldnt be what i would be worried about >.< would be the tokens and the other items associated with tokens such as hyper/food/GS/storg/wine/etc

    I guess it would be a little of both. Tokens get a bit more expensive, cannies get a bit cheaper.

    That is, if it's really only limited to 10 times a day per account. Otherwise things could get quite messy indeed...

    excellent coin sink, tbh. And a great way to get less-active people to charge gold in order to achieve Nirvana gear.

    Pay to Win.....at it's best. Ah well, PWI business as usual :)

    Don't you mean token sink? Not that many people NPC tokens (heck, it's a lot faster and less tedious to just sell it to a catshop), so I doubt it would affect the amount of coins floating around in the economy at all.

    Well supposedly they want Endless Universe / Warsong / Lunar to be the new goto farming instances instead of Nirvana. That's fine with me considering how stupidly APS-centric Nirvana is. The other instances are more friendly towards other classes.

    Hey at least they are a like 0.05% chance rather than a 98% chance.

    I do not see that on the database. But suppose that it is only 10 times a day.

    You have 2 accounts and really want that recast...

    4 of your trusted friends have 2 accounts.

    That would be 2,000 tokens that do not enter the market place and leave the market place a day. I would have to check catshops on RT right now to see how many tokens are in catshops. But it would put a dent in token quantities available to the masses. And that is only one person going for r9 recast.
