I realize that gold pieces in pre and post have different implied values, however, what does one do to take the higher implied value in pre and turn it into an equivalent amount of gold in post?

You find someone to buy your pre gold for post gold. If he refuses to hand over the post gold first, on the grounds that you could be a scammer (only you really know if you are or not), then you can find a trusted, impartial moderator to hold both party's stuff, and ensure that one person won't run off with the other's gold.

Yeah, we've heard of sarcasm, and what you posted was not sarcasm. It wasn't even remotely funny or sarcastic, mostly just stupid.

Mods close pl0x.

IF it's true, the guy's using an exploit.

I've been everywhere (and by "everywhere" I mean "ran the walls of every single spot") in Pre and have never, ever gotten a black dye. I'm sure many, many more people have done the same thing. So if such a place exists, it would have been discovered a long, long time ago and the word would already be out about it.

I say "B.S."

Q: Five dollar in Albania can buy me a whole dinner, with some nice wine, but in the US it'd barely buy me a burger. How can I maintain the value of the dollars I have in Albania when I move to the US?
A: You don't. You either stay in Albania a rich man among poor people, or go to the US and become a poor man among rich people.

As for black dyes in pre, they do drop there, and lots of people used to have a thriving business tricking new players out of their black dye (by paying 50 times more than the merchant, ie 50 gold, for it) then move the black dye to post-searing and rake in the profit. Back then it wasn't that unusual to see scammers/shrewd dye traders in pre which had very large amounts of black dye, all bought from newbie players.

I suppose it isn't impossible there's still some guy with a lot of black dye lingering in pre-sear, even though there no longer is a flood of newbie players to prey on, and who decided to prank the gullible OP.

RedStar · Jan 21, 2008, 06:56 AM // 06:56

OMG my friend just found a monster that drops 20 ecto every time but he doesn't want to tell me where he is. Believe me and help me find it even though I have no proof.

/end sarcasm

Unless you have a screenshot then this thread is BS, sorry.

/close please

Yea seriously, use common sense, unless its a bug or anything of that sort, WHY WOULD anet create a specific monster that drops black dyes THAT often, unless they wanted to crash the black dyes' price, which I believe is quite reasonable(6k, not too much, not too little).

So yeah, unless you can upload the screenshot WITH the monster(s) in the background there is absolutely no way that people will believe your friend(and you), because it-doesn't-make-any-frigging-sense. If you believe your friend THAT much, be my guest, have fun searching for something that's not there in the begging. And by the way, I'm right, try to prove me wrong.

Good Luck.

if anything, you could always try out the catacombs outside the barrin estate, and jus keep zoning in back and forth killing the gargoyles in there, they have a pretty high chance of droping dye's, just keep doing it enough and you'll get stacks of dyes

I sense photoshop being launched.

xDusT II · Jan 21, 2008, 08:13 AM // 08:13

So your friend has a secret spot where he finds lots of black stuff?

Cool.
