I'm stocked up on trade contracts. If I can get a decent price for Diamonds, I plan on trading them all in. If not, I'm gonna get me some Vabbian armour.

If you're not smart enough/don't want to put your efforts into legitimate was of earning IG, then WTH should you be rewarded?

If you want something, work for it. That's how these things work.

I invested in 200 diamonds, and sold them a month ago to pay for scrolls for my now dead survivor... roommates stepping on network cables ftw!

Diamonds are going down because people are doing the 5-level wurm dungeon at the far north end of the preview event map. At the end, you're rewarded with a diamond and a nice weapon/item. And this quest is repeatable. Now we just need to find out where the onyx dungeon is.

You can get Onyx from the wurm dungeon, instead of a diamond.

Orozar has a mission (his 2nd one) that rewards you with an Onyx gemstone.
Diamond 1st quest, Onyx 2nd quest. (Fend off A LOT of stone summit, bring a lot of offense -- MM included of course)

My 2nd Onyx gemstone I got finishing some Norn's mission of beating one of those giant bosses, Jotuni(?)
But this guy was crazy big, like another 3/4 added to the already giant Jotuni height .. Level 29, easy easy easy.

What happens when I open the Jotuni chest, a 3 level dungeon ... ONE STINKIN onyx gemstone.

Why should everyone be forced to farm? Some people just don't enjoy it. When you stop enjoying the time spent in a game, it's time to move on.

No one is forced to farm, don't be so silly. The game caters for all types of players in that respect; there are plenty of green, crafter and very, very cheap perfect items floating around to keep you from having to grind away for equipment.

The only reason to farm for equipment in GWs is VANITY. Showing off in online gaming is part of the fun for me: I find it a shallow yet enjoyable downtime to the hours of brain power spent thinking about the game proper.

Bottom line is: If you want shiny loot/armor, why should you be entitled to it without the effort?

If your answer is close to: Because that's just unfair/I don't have as much time to play as others/Everyone should be equal!, well that's just not how these things work.

Effort = Reward. A lot of you would be better off spending time getting familiar with this concept.

Aye.. diamonds can be obtained it seems fairly easily (and in a fun dungeon no less.) So I see the prices dropping slightly before stabalizing.

I have it on good authority that diamonds and onyx are the materials required. This was followed by an "oops, that wasn't public yet, was it..."

Well, since diamonds are quite easy to obtain you can expect them to go a bit lower still. Sorry.

Thats the risk of speculating, sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesnt.
