You should at least try looking at the wiki, before facing a dungeon-end monster again.

For Cyndr - if I recall, you have to drop powder kegs near him until his armor (red bar) goes down to zero. Then you have to attack him while the bar is blue - when the blue bar reaches the end, you have to start dropping kegs again. Rinse and repeat until he's dead. Note that he also has a regular health bar, which is what you need to get to zero while the other bar is blue.

They are still relatively rare, that is, rare enough that people will pay good money for them. Some people think it looks nice. Some people just want to flaunt it. Also, they come ranging from q9-q13, speccing in different caster attributes. The ones that go for really insane amounts of ecto (cash has long since flown out the window) are q9, in popular attributes. Prot. Heal. Fire.

So. Maybe there are lots of BDS staffs, or so you claim, but whether or not the req is actually desirable is a different matter.

200-400e for a req13 necro? Are you sure? oO

IC IC! so its not a bug that it keep disappearing just when the blue bar is filled up.

lol i know! but i also like the suspense. like at least try it once to figure out if I can complete the dungeon without any guide.

thanks for the Cyndr information! and happy wintersday

Eh. Who cares if they are so overpriced, farm and sell em then.

I've seen req 10 prot go for 900e. If that's not fake in the high end section. That's crazy!

But yeah they're expensive because of all the possibilities, IF you get one.

Let the kids be emo and make a nice cut in between.
Personally though, I love my IDS and might even get a 2nd one for one of the hero warriors on my main.

Hi, I am an Economics undergraduate, this has what to do with the thread?

All economics majors/minors/people who like talking about their bad college econ class, gtfo out of my thread. Stay on topic - that would be the bds. Also, for those of you who have made useful statements, thank you very much.

QFT
as the staff is not that rare generally, but the chance for it having an exact attribute reqiurement is qiute small, but still 900e is very much money.
Another thing is that SoO is the hardest dungeon generally(unless youre 600hp) so making this place not easy farmable for the casual player.

Do you think it will go down and by how much? ->
It's one of those items, which price matters from seller
seller A may sell it for 600 ecto,while seller B for 1000e
and if 600hp monks start abusing this place, price will crush, you can be sure

Exactly, thats why I said about it being funny people thinking they know all about economics and spout it on guru, personally I play games like GW to get away from economics when im doing a degree in it >.>

Some people are saying rebalance it, are you meaning make it easier to obtain? I didnt find it an easy farm, though i did only try a couple of times. If you make it easy to obtain you just make this like every other item that is heavily farmed, the BDS skin (imo) is that bad, why should it not be a high price? if you want it that badly you will pay the very high price, if you dont have the cash to buy it anyways, then it doesnt really matter to you or you will try to earn that cash. I am all for it being hard to obtain and a higher price, yes i know it can reward grinding your ass off but there needs to be something to shoot for if you have large amounts of money or to spend your time getting better skinned items (in peoples opinion, i find most like the BDS).

[I think that was worded terribly but I cba to rewrite lol]
