T8 Spells/Discs

[Deadspirit]

Muahahaha! T8 is out and, to my understanding, trash-drop spells/discs are able to be sold to newbies!

I shall require the following:

Warrior, Rogue, Ranger, Cleric, and Shaman tomes/spells. Tell me in game. Names in Sig.

20k for a trash drop? Sure, i'll pay it.

Get rich so you can spend it in the Casino then sell me a Haunted Blade!

Just because they are tradable I wouldn't expect to see these on the open market for quite a long time.

That and I'll be sad if I see them going for less than 50k for even the most common RK. I

From Allaclone:

Supposed trash mobs have 5% drop rate for any given spell/disc

From headline post:

New Content: Tier 8 includes countless hours of content spanning from Solo (1 Char+Bot) difficulty up to 18 man raid difficulty!

From Pic which is taken from landmark which is about 5 mobs into zone (with the assumption that zone in is in original spot):

Notice that the pic captions a Death Wrulan, one of the trash mobs that is listed on allaclone to drop spells.

My assumptions are based solely on above info. It seems like anyone who logs in can kill some mobs, find a tradeable spell that they have/doesnt work for their class/alts, and sell it for a sweet profit.

Have T8 key? Welcome to cash-cow heaven. Grab a donor enchanter and make some money!

I guess I can give 50k for a spell... bustin' my balls man.

Give it 2 months. Economy will be hurtin', spells will go for 5k and a new foreign-run guild is selling all the plat on playerauctions. (I enjoy sarcasm)

[Deadspirit]

The pic also lists a vendor which sells items for 1k, 2.5k, 5k, and 10k godly points...

Hypothetically, If you get 1,000 godly points you will need to kill roughly 750 mobs (Tokens taken into account).

750 mobs * 5% drop rate would equate to ~36 tomes/spells.

o New Spells: Each class has received 18 new spells for level 70. Rank I spells will be trade-able and drop from any monster in Tier 8. Rank 2 and 3 spells will be No-Drop and only available from the raid encounters.

o New Events: If you thought Dreadspire was the pinnacle of a Raid zone, just wait till you see what is in store in Halls of Honor! The zone includes over 600 trash Npcs, 8 Nameds, 6 Bosses and 4 Super-Bosses!

I think devs designed this because they want people to be able to progress - I'm sure they dont just want to make content for 1/30th of the server population.

The market will become diluted when one guild no longer controls it. Keep together and you can make some nice coinage.

I'm still talking out of my ass.

might be looking into it too much lol, math is solid but to expand upon what Sega was saying, i dont expect to see any T8 spells/discs on teh market for quite some time, and since im posting here anyways ill throw it out that Shattered doesnt intend to be selling any until we are 100% sure everyones toons have what they need. so Sega is right in that your looking at probably a few month wait before anything starts trickling out.

My guild is only T6 atm, with a couple people DSK flagged, but as a guild leader, I know that I certainly would be making damn sure that guild members were all taken care of before allowing anything to be sold outside of guild. Definitely gonna be a while before this stuff was in the bazaar; cost will be high, 50k probably starting out, more desirable spells/disciplines costing more.

These spells and Disc’s were made tradable for a reason, they are to benefit the THF community as a whole. We have no intent on hording them or pretending that because we can get into the zone that somehow we deserve more than the next guy. I’m lucky to be there.

I know you have looked at the numbers, calculated the drop rate and factored in the time involved, but until you have fought a Death Wrulan face to face with no healer and no dps to back you up you will never truly understand how much work it is for just one 5% drop.
I’m 1 of about 12 toons flagged for the zone and I’ve probably farmed 30 spells and disc’s. I believe there are 4 per class. Ours is a large guild of over 40 unique and active main characters + full box teams of alts. Now add in the members that are less active for the summer. Do that math.

Be assured that we are not trying to create some kind of monopoly on the new items, but it will be a bit before they hit the guilds that haven’t reached HoH yet.

Its like Pokemon...and I gotta catch'em all!

I'm tired of magazines sayin' flat butts are the thing.
Take the average black man and ask him that she gotta pack much back.
So, fellas! Fellas!
Has your girlfriend got the butt?
Tell 'em to shake it! Shake it!
Shake that healthy butt!
Baby got back!
