why has the prices for T1 enhancement stones increased so dramatically since i was lvl1??
and why has the prices for T2 and T3 enhancement stones decreased so dramatically since i was lvl1??
i think the prices for T2 and T3 enhancement stones should go back to original prices, stone makers that makes alot of T2 and T3 that buys dims/lustered from people for 70-110c/300-450c each are losing money if they sell them all from the current prices, so if your a stone maker that actually wants to make profit from enhancment stones, we will all stick together and sell at the original prices or maybe more:rolleyes: but as long as we make a profit,so everyone thats a stone maker pls vote

BTW i was hoping to gain some money by creating a character to do stone making but as soon as i got to xir[3] prices went down so i dont feel like it anymore -.- thats my life story there :(

also if your not a stone maker and you wanna make a comment pls do so as long as it desnt signify any anger to me ;)

The big reason that t2+t3 stone prices are going down is simply a matter of the failure rate being increased big time. now people would have to spend about twice as much for xir easily just to get from +7 to +9 [i still haven't done it with one equip with 15 attempts]. point is.. no one wants to enhance anymore, so the only way to convince customers to buy is by lowering the price, but still, we weren't the ones who screwed it up... whoever tried to fix it probably made a simple math error and just goofed it in the wrong way. either way, the only way we'll be able to see our stone prices go back up is if we actually get to enhance with a decent effing chance. pardon my french.

anyway... that's my comment. and with a mage that has about 12k or so in stone producing, i feel your pain.

In fact...

The real reason why stones are going down is....

STONE ARE DROPING LIKE CRAZY IN ABYSS...

Which is way better than normal stones...

So there you go :)

hi zepheris :P
if xirs and stuff are dropping alot then lowering the prices for T2 and T3 stones because in the end we'll lose profit so theres no point in making them, but also for some people they dont drop as much as to get a wep to +9 so there is still a fighting chance for stone makers.

Who said it was an error?? I say, its a marketing scheme :P

In any case, yes, abyss is dropping bless and lucky stones like crazy, but also stone mats like crazy too...

When you have like too many of it and its filling out your full invent, what do u do? You sell them fast --> lowering the price.

I mean, when bless and luckies sells for cheap already, you got no choice but to sell the normal stones (the ones that are not that easy to make anymore due to the mining bug imo --> mining only gives you 1 type of stones at a time... to a max of 3 stones in total...) at even cheaper price to make a sell. Why do ppl still sell it then?? because it increase the production skill level :)

I'm sure there will be a T5 stones :) ... at least i hope, cuz other wise, idk why am i pilling up the blue t4 mats :P


... i still remember a time where normal T2 xir sold for 50s woa...

im guessing the stones for lower levels are higher because b/l are harder to find compared to higher tier since you can find a couple b/l stones in one abyss run

T3 stone price drop reason :
1. Blessed and Lucky stone T3 drop so often in Abbys, and KQ chest.
2. There are more ppl who can make T3 stone already (just need a mat).
3. Mat drop is so easy to get.
4. Competition between stone seller is extremely high.

I just reached T3 elrue making yesterday (coz I had the time yesterday.... nah, was bored actually :D)...

Anyway, I don't think blessed and lucky drops makes any change in prices... most enhancers find that blessed and luvky stones increase chance to fail... yes FAIL.
NOTE: I know the effects of the 2 kinds...
Blessed decreases chance for item breakage.... not chance to upgrade... when I try to enhance it takes 2-5 blessed elrue to make 1 increase or...... eventually item breakage..
Lucky has the chance for double enhancement ie. from +0 to +2... although from my experience... even just using 1 already breaks the weapon -.- but not in all occasions though ;) just about 1 in every 3 use of luckys D:

anyway, my point to that is normal stones still makes a better chance to upgrade items... and I think a lot of enhancers can agree on that... hopefully XD

but the price is okey for me... I'm only making T3 elrues atm... and even if I sell them at 2.5s each I'd get 100c profit... and my main goal is only to increase stone making points there ;) but nah... I go 3s each lowest :D I see ppl sell T3 elrues in eldy selling at 10s+ each! D: wish I can vend the whole day like them XD
