Told you, no one needs them because most people focuses only in onw character.
It's the legacy of the titles and the HoM.

I'd say its a price war. More people are getting wise, and trying to get more customers by selling low. That makes it so that people expect those low prices.

But to sell low you need a higher income, and you don't see much farmeable monk crowds in the game.

No. Skill points are ridiculously easy to come by; gold is not.

All we need to do is get a new "uber" farming skill bar out there that uses some of the lesser known skills. This will cause the masses to need the new skills and since they would rather get the skill via a tome instead of mapping and paying 1k... we'll be rich!
So, anyone found a good farming build for [Fertile Season]?

Have you ever seen that guy: W T S Elite Assassin Tome 1=4k, Normal Sin Tomes 1=200g. (That's from Kaineng Center btw.)

Sin tomes don't drop in Hotsprings. You only have an overabundance of them because of all those poor raptors.

I rarely see rit tomes for sale, and when I do, they are rather pricey, like around 800g.

I hope Elite Tomes reach ~1k soon. I'd like the other 2 elite skill titles.

That's kind of rediculous cause what would you need skill points for then if you did't use them for getting skills? Other than those that own GWEN the skills would just become useless. So regular tomes should hardly cost 1k they are for saving you gold not skill points. Always has been that way always will be that way. They will hardly go up before going down as they are doing right now proving my point. <grin>

If an item is farmable the price will drop. Some items drop slowly, some drop quickly.

I still sell most of tomes at pretty good prices, monk tomes still at 1k and above!, same with rit, ele tomes are still easy 800+, even the more farmable ones like warrior are still in demand and sell at around 400g, no clearly visible price drop
Only assa tomes can be seen under 300g mark, obvious reason ;d

I never had problems selling monk tomes over 1k. Sometimes even over 2k.
The only tomes that dropped to bottom are assassin since just about everyone is pushing for raptor extinction.

skill points are required for buying cap signets, and trust me, it got annoying running out of skill points (albeit i got the skill title before gwen, so i can see now why skill points are easy to come by)
