Default Price of Armbraces

This week I noticed the price of armbraces seems dropped a little. Their price used to stabilize at 23e, very hard to find someone selling it at 22e or lower. But from last weekend, i saw at least 10 ppl selling their armbraces at 22e or 23 zkeys. So I was just wondering why did this happen? Is there a new build out to make DoA easier or clear it faster? Any idea, guys?

I have been trying to buy armbraces at 22e each for a while. And 90% ppl offered me at 23e each. Just from this week, its MUCH easier to get ppl who willing to sell me at 22e. And today I saw a guy who was spamming at kamadan to sell his/her 41 armbraces at 22each, but took at least an hour to get a buyer. 22e each for armbraces was hot but not any more nowadays. And if you stay in kamadan you will notice that lot of ppl now spamming" WTB armbraces 21ectos".

I'd say that DoA has a new audience of people who wouldn't/couldn't/didn't do DoA with pugs/groups, who are now approaching it with their heroes. Surely the gem output isn't off the charts, but a little increase in supply should be happening.
That might explain this. Do you think price of armraces gonna keep dropping or just stay at 21~22e each? cuz I'm planing to buy bulk of them but worried about lose significant amount of money by buying it now.

Probably nothing, varies from people to people if someone spams for 2 hours "WTS Arms 23e/ea" and still doesn't sell them it would be logical to sell the at a lower price.
And I've seen more prople selling them for 22e/ea then 23 for quite a long time.

could be that people who couldnt get their own armbrace for hom point in pugs are now just hero-ing for it instead of buying one.

Could be that people don't want tormented anymore because the ones that wanted them bought them already (i.e. constant supply, lowered demand). I remember armbraces were 24e-25e for the past year or so. Only recent months after 7 Heroes did I see 22-23e.

Buy arms at 22e and sell them for 24e. It is all about supply and demand. If you have more people selling at one time it will make people more willing to sell them at lower price to get back to doing something besides spamming.

i have the answer people!
Armbraces and ectos price will start dropping soon because Eggs and Cupcakes will start droping, and the best (cheapest) way to buy stacks of each is with money!

Have seen several people selling for 20e over the course of a few days.

Also, ecto prices are up a bit.

No matter how crazy ectos price changes from rare material trader, they are pretty stable from human seller (around 7-7.5k/ea nowadays). I'm not sure if they gonna drop down during the event tho.

It seems price of armbraces keep going down, I bought ~30 armbraces today at 21e each without much effort. And it's really hard to sell armbrace at 23e now even at 22e it will take awhile.

+1 to this. People can actually do DoA in decent time now for fun. Now anyone who's competent can produce a few Armbraces in a relatively quick amount of time.
