Short and sweet. Have Icy Dragon Swords been taken out of the game ( as in dropping of them ) along with the wintersday update? Thanks in advance.

Nope. Also, the prices have gone WAY down.
I wish I had sold mine for 60-70k when I could have. As it is, I bought it to resell for a profit, but with the prices so far down, I bought mine a while ago for 48k, which was a deal then, and then sold recently for 38k and an ecto. I consider myself lucky to get that much for it.

You were lucky - people were spamming them yesterday for 30K.

Basically, sell them while you have them. Firey dragon swords used to be like this, and now they're worth nothing. Sure, they're different, and I guess different means better, but there is no reason to pay that much money for a sword that you KNOW will be worth next to nothing in the months to come. But hey, if you have the extra $$ to spend, then go for it.

They're being overfarmed and the price is being driven into the ground, just like any hot item.. Either sell it ASAP and get what you can for it, or hold onto it and hope that the price rebounds eventually.. I would guess these will more than likely end up around 5k sooner than later, if even that much.
