there was an update that made Sup Abs and Sup Vig more common... i'm guessing that had something to do with it

Not sure myself. I would guess that once Factions came out, people started cashing in their Sup Absorptions to get some money for their new characters.

Yeah I wondered that. I saw how cheap sup absorption was, so I thought maybe I'd finally be able to afford a sup vigor, only to find it's still ridiculously expensive

ANet could have at least warned people about this update that changed the super absorption rune drop rate. I am a business man in real life and I made a great ( at the time) business move by purchasing 4 super absorption runes before Factions came out. Think about it.....new armor means demand for runes to go up. ANet burned me again just like they did when they postponed the CE for what they said to be 2 months. So I purchased a regular copy only to get my CE two days after I used my regular key. Goes to show ANet doesn't really care much about the customers that support them the most. I am sure I was not the only one in this boat.

prices go down when you keep selling the same crap over and over and over to the npc.... every1 read the stupid update and thought "hmmm sup absorbs are more common maybe i should sell mine before prices plummet" and when no1 was buying they then prolly just sold to npc.

Pretty good point but it still doesn't change the fact that you can get a super absorption rune to drop just as the same as any other easy to find rune. |

I think this was long overdue. I'm glad I don't have to spend 60k to absorb an extra 1 dmg over Major. Not worth it at all.
Vigor, however, is used in absolutely ever prof.. I expect it to stay the same. |

The house always wins, never forget that.
Actually, if you still have some sup absorbs, I'll buy one or two O.o I saw a slight decline in price before factions went live. I figured I'd wait with buying sup absorbs until the price was very very low. My reasoning was this: - there will be a lot of assassins and ritualists so the warrior runes will drop (all war runes dropped, not just the absorb) - there will probably be some way to ensure that new guys won't have to play catch-up with the prophecies veterans so the absorb price might get altered or fixed I was right and didn't buy any sup absorbs and I have saved myself at least 50k in gold O.o |
