ok lots of pople have this whole ideal that ectos will rise if they nerf shadow form, this is not true in anyways yesit might lvel off at 3.7 or 3.5k but will never again go over 4k,

so to know why this is ture you wil have to look at supply and demand.
for ecto to go up in price this will have to happen

the amount of poeple selling to trader have to me far less then the poeple buying. so

selling to trader < buying from trader

the tradder does not know how manyecto drop so the sf perma is not the reason why ecto's took a noise dive, here is the real reason

we have 600/smite farma and such most builds farm areas that dont drop alot of ecto like plains does and those build harder to run.also they take longer to do. the perma farm is easy takes hardly no brains to do and is fast and gives 6X times the ecto.

now we have aeasy fast non fail wy to farm alot of ectos , now we have pople with a stack of ecto thats never had more then 20k to there name. and there liek i hate spamming to sell, but trader buying for only 500gold less then what i could sell to real poeple for. 500g not much i have 250 ectos. i will stillget loads and be rich like those other guys.

and thatss the reason its not just sf its the fact the pople with no brains selling to trader like there stacks of wood.

btw 500gtimes 250 =125k so newb that alot fo money to you its worth the 20 min it takes to sell to real poeple soyou dont hurt the gw eco.

anyways i dont like to rant much just thought i would share and descus the ecto fallign in price and the real reason it is doing so

over all nerfing sf will not make ecto rise all it will do is stop them from going any lower, and thats it

Yes, I sold like 5000 ecto's to kill the ecto price and then quit GW.
/sarcasm off.

But the OP is right. Anyways, I'll be making a lot of money, I bought a hell of a lot UW scrolls for 1.3K two weeks ago and if I sell them a la minute I get 1.8K from the trader! Who says the GW economy can not be predicted?
Soon scrolls will run out, like before the last SS/LB weekend (and there wasn't even a A/E back than). Guess what happens if all those additional A/E wanna buy scrolls as well. GoGo Anet, I'm rich!

I hate reading text that is secretly encoded so that I cannot comprehend what it is about, I like that part where he denies that it isn't a ecto/sf thread when it is clearly about both :/

Reason for low ecto price is SF sins selling ecto to trader, if they stop doing that, price goes up again. Simple.

There is already enough ecto / shard / shadow threads. I vote merge or close this one.

If they nerf shadow form people will go back grinding their titles(favor will go up slowly).

The price of the ecto is still unstable since ecto is still use as currency.

People can still farm ecto in the dragon festival missions.

who would buy ecto from the trader if they can get ecto for cheaper from players, and there isn't a shortage of ecto. Your logic train fails at that steps. Unless Anet adds another use for ecto (like that would happen), ecto will probably not recover. I suggest switching to a more solid item, i.e. lockpicks. These will never for worth less than 1k or more than 1.25k, and can be easily sold for 1.2k. And the amount of title hunter using them will never decrease much, teasure hunter is a huge title, and then there unlucky that 3 times as large.

Not quite -

people also have to BUY from trader for the price to rise. And that is what I don't think will happen as there is an oversupply among players already.

Right. Also, who in their right mind wants to stand around in Kamadan, trying to sell their supply for an ungodly amt of time? They'd just rather gather what they have and make a quick buck off of the trader.

Dude, seriously? Spelling, punctuation, grammar. You should make friends with them. I mean, c'mon, even Firefox has a built-in spell checker now. As is, this post is only just barely readable, and from what I can gather, pretty poorly thought-out anyway.

Topic:
I disagree with pretty much everything in this post that I can make heads or tails of. If you remove the increased supply, prices go up. It might take a long time, but they would. Not saying I think a SF nerf is coming, mind you, but if it did, then yes, ectos (look ma, no unnecessary apostrophes!) would eventually go up in price at the trader.
