Does anyone else think that rare weapons will go down in chapter 2?

I dont know but i kinda feel that rare weapons that are here in chapter 1 will no longer be rare or no longer wanted when chapter 2's new weapons come out( if any) and I dont think i wana buy any rare weapons now if chapter is coming soon..

I have never paid more than 10k for any one item.

It wouldn't affect me.

i dont think so because ti will be exactly like the greens, they will be OVERFARMED in fact making them quite common, like every green.

If you're talking about Gold and Greens they probably will stay the same. But if you're talking about the sickles, sephis axes, IDS etc they probably will go down as the new areas will probably drop tons of them and there'll be new weapons in Factions anyway

What we will see is a drop in demand for certain items and an increase in others once chapter 2 comes out.
If there are new skins for weapons (which there should be from the contest they just had), new mods or better type of modding on the new weapons, there will be a high demand for those of course. Once the novelty has worn off on looks, it will go back to stats and the high prices we usually see on those items.
I suggest saving your money, farm for the new weapons (when chapter 2 is released), and make your own choice. Simple enough.

Demand will certianly drop, but then rare weapons in chapter 1 are going to be even MORE rare because nobody's farming them anymore.

I good strat may be to pick up a bunch of crystal swords and what-not for a song in the days just after the expansion and hold onto them for a few months.

Then again, the new weapons may be SO cool that we'll NEVER go back to our old skins.

Not everyone that is playing chapter 2 has chapter 1. Keep that in mind as there will still be a market for chapter 1 items. Supply will go down due to less farming.

These factors may be enough to balance it out.
