Why are sickles so expensive? - Guild Wars Forums

Dixie Wrecked2 · Dec 08, 2005, 12:34 AM // 00:34

I can't understand why sickles are so expensive. Sure, they look alright, but definately not worth what people are paying for them. Do they have some hidden attribute, like faster attack speed or something? Is there any reason other than looks to use them? Fill me in, cuz im confused on why someone would pay 1mil gold for a 6-27, +15 while enchanted, +30 hp sickle, but a max dmg chaos axe isnt worth half that...

They look great. That's it.

Same with Crystalline Swords.

They are ultra rare especially the high dmg type one you speak of, sure anyone can get a 6-17 one, but you dont see many over the 6-23 mark

It's all about rarety

That's because there aren't any sickles like the one you described. Also, no one has ever found even a max damage CLEAN sickle.

Search ftw. See here for more info:
