Will the price of sup absorption rise? - Guild Wars Forums

Nitradamus · May 13, 2006, 12:12 PM // 12:12

I got a sup absorption today, and i'm wondering if i should sell it for 6k(lol) for wait and hope the price will rise.

What are your thoughts on this?

Absorption, unlikely. Vigor, those may go up or at least hold their value.

The drop rate for both increased a lot. Only Warriors can use Absorption, but anybody can use Vigor. Thus the sudden price disparity. I wouldn't suggest holding on to it for the sake of turning a major profit. The days of 100k Runes is gone, gone, GONE.

Never, because of the increased drop rate

To clear up your question, with the kill of the Ettin[*] farming: yes, basically, all you'd be looking for is a Superior Vigor, to raise some profit.

This, however, only applies to those who want to make money at speeds that will make heads spin. However, to those who just want to have some fun and make some money, I still partake in Ettin runs, and get in about 5k per run, to and from Beatletun. With a more empty inventory, it's even more

As one of my good friends said, however, it was, truly, the introduction of the Rune Merchant that initially sent rune prices into a... balanced freefall, for lack of a better term. With convenience comes an economy change, to be sure.

PS: I found a Sup. Absorbtion just 3 days ago - now, with such a low price, I just have my warrior sporting it, for the fun of it

High end mods and rare skins are the way to go now. Runes is a nice sideline and you can get some good stuff for your personal use that way but for the most part they aren't worht the effort anymore. The best skins now can be found in the elite missions. I think the end game greens go for a pretty penny but they aren't farmable without a lot of aggravation.

Values don't kill farming, farming kills values.
