What is going on?!
I managed to sell all my ectos at 8k ea.
I hope that's good.
Can someone explain me what's going on with ectos atm, and what you think is going to be the price in a few days?
Thanks

I have 150 shards atm, seeing they are always ~3k, lots of buyers, no sellers, and farming fow is a bit harder?

Honestly, what's the point of this thread? It appears to me that the OP is just a materials speculator who is too lazy and/or incompetent to play the market on his own.

Please put forth a coherent reasoning behind this statement. The overall well-being of an economy is not tied to the price of any one item, regardless of its supposed importance or role. If the price continues to drop, players will simply substitute out of ecto into some other commodity such as dyes or gemstones.

The world will go on. Even this virtual one.

Omg, did you even bother to read the other replies?

I'm asking for why this is happening, and what ppl think that will happen in the future.

Btw, there are much more ectos then gemstones, gemstones are hard to sell.

Thread can be closed too, got my answer already.

Whats the point of your reply?

ok i have a question about the ectos too. in hard mode is it still possible to 55 the aataxes or what and what lvl r they? and the ectos go up in price when people buy from other people the longer time period when someone doesnt buy an ecto from a trader the more i t goes up. btw help me encourage people to buy form people bcuz i solo farm UW and i hate having to sell them for only 8k ea, wereas i could be selling them at 9.5k or so. i remember when i sold them for 11k ea... i was a very very rivh man...
