I'm looking to pick up more than one of these myself (I quest for salvage cap on all base/component salvage -- 20 or 99 for most). I'll pay 100M for whatever i need to my cap as it would be bad form to outbid OP.
Its something to do....thats why. I have hundreds of billions wtf else am I going to do with it since i don't want to RMT. -
I am only a few pieces away from a full collection of all base salvage (20 of each with only fa'laks and a few others at less than 20). I must have 5-6B tied up in bids to get the last few pieces. Even so I won't pay 10B for a level 1 HO

Something I'm curious about is inf generation per day (how much market vs how much fresh inf). It would be nice to know how much inf is added to the game daily as well to make a long-term estimate of M.
-
When making a female toon I almost always have max hip size, min leg length, and min breast size. I've found this is the only way to get a size 10 or larger figure.
I tend towards longer boots and stillettos.....except my superstrength toons who always have some huge armored boots or platforms.
Otherwise I go with what looks nice. -
Go with a brute. Brutes properly built have the same caps to resists/defenses/hp at tankers and while they have a lower base damage than scrappers are quite comparable with a full fury bar. Unbuffed/IO'ed a Brute is like a Tanker who can't hold aggro as well who does a little more damage. Well buffed and/or IO'ed a Brute IS a tanker who can scrap.
If you must know though it is much easier to boost the following in order with IOs
Smashing/Lethal Defense to softcap
Positional Defense (Melee/Ranged/AoE)
Damage
Resists
Getting a scrapper softcapped to s/l will make you feel tough but you'll still die to things with defense debuffs or damage without smash or lethal in it.
+Damage will never make a tanker feel like a scrapper but will make you feel less gimpy with the punches.
Resist slotting is a losing battle in my experience. -
I suspect three things will happen:
1) An increase in demand for BAFs and LAMs to run for Astrals/Empyreans
2) A mild increase in demand for low-demand rare/VR recipes (Teleport, Immob, Sleep, etc) spread over many of these recipes. Perhaps a somewhat universal minimum price for rare/VR drops.
3) A modest decrease in the price of high-demand rare and VR drops (perhaps 100M dropping to 60-75M for example).
All of this of course assumes that people take advantage of the new system to about 50% of its capabilities. Most players play to have fun, not to make loads of inf. They make loads of inf solely to spend it making builds. As the requirement to make inf for builds drops their incentive to do all the above reduces and equilibrium is established well short of the "good purples are dropping to 100M" crowd's hyperbole. -
Except the night I got a purple on the final kill of siege and then another on nightstar. Of course I'd gone 2 months since dropping one before that.

Quote:I have a bad habit of matching Fulmens' destruction donations anytime he wants to blow some inf up with a 100% bonus burn rate. So I'm probably responsible for keeping him "poor".We may be getting into a discussion where we have to distinguish between "increase in personal net worth", "increase in personal actual cash" and "increase in inf added to the game." Honestly, between high-efficiency farming, SuperTeams, and CEBR on one side, and mass generating of PVP IO's on the other, I couldn't actually guess whether TopDoc has added inf to the game or subtracted it. I like to think it's come out on the negative side but I have no idea.
Oh, and
Right now i have... maybe... 15 billion liquid? I know I only have 6 billion stored and I only seriously market on four characters. If you count up my "provably vaporized" pile it's respectably big, but I don't keep any of it. (Note to self: almost time for spring cleaning again.)
I'm worth over 100B at the moment despite blowing up or slotting 25B in the last 2 months and I am almost certain that I am NOT in the top 10 richest people in the game. I don't know who is, but i doubt its me. I am however probably in the top .1% of the infholding playerbase. -
Liquid Inf and valuable items are different things. Between all my built toons, stored IOs (across all servers), stored recipes, and stock on market at any time I estimate that I have about 700 B in valuable items. However, I only have about 125B in liquid inf at this moment.
I'd gather that as long as the game has been out that 100 Trillion is a reasonable guess especially since the market is a semi-inf-sink.
I don't think we actually have any way of knowing though. -
Considering the effort in getting a purple to drop in-game I think the prices are very fair. Especially since you're doing trials which actually make one of your toons better from incarnating as well (as opposed to farming which doesn't do crap other than maybe get a badge or 2 along with the inf and drops).
-
Anyone have good estimates of the total amount of liquid inf in the game at the moment? I'd like to think that 250B at least removes a measurable portion of the excess (0.3%?). Or are we at the point now where we're in the low quadrillions of inf?
-
I'd be shocked if you're not worth more than me TopDoc. I only have a bit over 100B liquid at the moment but if you count the value of all the IOs I have stored over all servers I'm worth about a trillion. The sad thing is it would take more than 3 days to list everything and probably months for it all to sell.....so it's not really all that valuable other than letting me take advantage of price increases by going to the right place and filling a market need.
-
I would have paid a few billion to get one each of the ones I don't have 20 of -- the aformentioned Fa'Laks and such. Ah well I'll just have to be satisfied that I only need like 53 or something to have a REALLY FULL set (20 of all and 99 of each component) of base salvage. And yeah I probably have like 10 billion tied up in bids to get the last ones. Oh well.....its not doing me any good on storage toon one and storage toon two on pinnacle anyhows right?
-
I popped an absolute amazement last night from snaptooth so yes they drop on BNY at a minimum. No reason to assume the LW mission is any different.
-
Thanks Masque -- greatly appreciate the ring mistress code you sold me.
-
Thanks Masque. I'll still buy one more Ring Mistress code if you get a hold of another.
-
If you get a hold of another. Let me know. I had been bumping an old similar post for months but with no bites I gave up like 6 mos ago.
-
If you have one send me a message to @ferrum-ignis and we can discuss price. I'll pay a reasonably high amount for one of these, certainly over the single-toon inf cap.

Quote:I mailed 1.5B to every alt over 10th level on every server. I have altitis (and I made a level 10 each side on every server to make storage bases for IOs).Where the hell do you keep that? I mean, just the liquid inf? The most I've ever had was maybe 10-12B or so...and it was so unwieldy I was glad to be rid of it. Now that I'm back up there again, or higher, I'm giving it away again.
I give away a billion a week or more every week. -
I assume based on things I have seen that I am no where near the wealthiest person in the game and at the moment I have the following:
125B in liquid inf
200B in IOs stored in bases (which won't be able to be converted quickly as some are illiquid or I will drop the price significantly but this is assuming I sell them at current mkt price -- or off mkt price in many cases).
50B (rough estimate of what I'd bring back if I shut down all marketeering immediately -- outstanding bids, etc).
I assume some are much wealthier because of some of the inf-to-prestige machines I've seen functioning and how quickly they work. -
I'll be happy to re-pass you guys on Freedom when you move on to other servers. Pretty sure I inspired the 1st crazy 88's by hitting Fulmens up for donations over and over to move up the list. Since its a mostly solo job and I have a demanding job and kids I only go so fast.

I'm amazed at how deep the pool of bids for common IOs is. I've been working on my field crafter for all toons project (actually only 40 toons....but thats another issue) in anticipation of buying the market anywhere command shortly and other than things like defense debuff there is always a huge pile of profitable bids for me as long as I don't dump like 60 of the same common IO at once.
If you're the one buying my common IOs and flipping them....glad to help you. I really don't need the inf I already have but making more is easier once I have field crafter on all my toons (I'm about 55% done the project though only 11 toons have field crafter). -
Somebody decided to buy all the oblit damage procs that were crafted and strangely none were listed over 75M (despite recent selling price between 45-50M) as left-overs from higher prices a few issues ago when they sold around 70M consistently.
I made a bit more inf on a few of my niches...things which sold for 20M normally went up to 25-30M without a corresponding increase in recipe price for the most part. And, a lot of people must have made new masterminds because 2 of my mm-oriented niches saw my entire stock sell out when normally I wait 14 days to sell 15 IOs. -
He's not #1 for prestige. My main is just a hair ahead of him and I'm sure someone in PsychotiX is ahead of us both (along with others I'm sure).
I haven't done mine in a rush but I've been pretty consistent doing 4-6B a month for a looooooong time (i14 or so?).
