I saw some guy in ToA offering 100 ecto for a req8 15^50 Shadow Blade. So I'm guessing 80-90 ecto if you find someone who really wants it.

I bought this sword from this dude for 100k + 43 Ecto. Roughly 400k. Worth every gold piece if you ask me. Of course I have modded it.

well.. yes and no

u can compare shadowblades to chaos axes imo. atm everyone just farms the chests like greens.
but the only place u can get chaos axes is fow just like shadowblades imo these will stay around the value of chaos axes.

hmmm, again, a top spec chaos axe is about 100k+70+ ecto, now all the players who have a chaos axe or a fellblade...how many will be able to afford (and ebay, cos i've asked a lot of players over the course of the last 9 months how they got their cash when they just...don't seem that keyed up... and a fair few buy their cash cos it's so 'cheap' which drives prices up on such vanity items cos everyone else is buying cash and certain people exploit that defeating the point, anyhow 'lolz'), yeah, how many could afford that price tag to keep it so stably high? I think req 8's will fetch about 200k in the long term, unless people ditch their fellblades as the zomgest sword (the average axe user may shun swords, thus no market there) and go for shadow blades...and the capital goes into shadow blades...But then comes chapter two with all the new weps, and whilst the new weps may only be available to factions buyers, alot of people will have brought factions...also the amount of them that are dropping will certainly cause saturation, they seem way more common that chaos axes :S

I dunno, this reminds me a bit of the IDS, insert a rare weapon into the economy, Initial surge, millions of profit to be made, and then it's cheap as hell later down the road cos of such focused farming.

If 10/10 sundering shadowblades start selling like hotcakes for 100k+60e (right now i've brought some for...considerably less than that), then we'll know who's buying ^^


time will tell of course, I just like to waffle.

Oh, and victos blade of course, for 10k you get the skin, 3:1 vamp and 30hp.

Chaos/fellblade/brute/CS, etc are unique skin

i'll offer 100k flat for the base sword. why. because i dont beleive in the way greed drives everyone. its usually the same action people get pissed about when they try to buy mods and the ebay market bot tells you like 30-50k over them mod value. not to mention victos is a green shadowblade. and only 1/3rd the price. gold isn't the issue with alot of elite oldtime farmers its principle for me thats the problem.

Surely, you'd buy for 100k and sell for oodles more. Quit the moralising

Also, victos aint 33k, it's like 10k last time I checked, I am european though, and I do most of my trade with those from over the pond, where perhaps money is more abundant.

sephis are far rarer...how long have shadowblades been out? i've already seen oodles of 14/15^50/stance/enchant from 8 to 13 req. Saturation will hit


and like hell is that the first perfect shadowblade :P

As for the reasons explained (kind of, at least) in my post. No way to support a long-term high price on them @ current drop rates + expected market.


People have learnt from the IDS/Greens, surely?...buy for 100k+40 ectos, next week it's 100k...next month it's 30k. I will be proven right

but i see max uber stats chaos axes going for right around 100k. uber weapons just have no market anymore. its cheaper to make them then what people sell for.

ignorance, my friend, is bliss.


i use a 20/20 ankh too, so i worked it out to be technically the same if things get rounded up on the second go

20%faster off 100, then 19%faster off the remaining %80

I really have no idea how things work, am sure they can stack though, I did a restore life in like 1 second (probably 2 though) on someone today. Felt amazing

That's a personal opinion, of course. But given that there are people who are willing to pay exorbitant sums for a shadow blade, I'd say that there's definitely a market of people who like 'em.

IMO, for fow weapons the order will go: Chaos, fellblades, shadowblades. Axes have been gaining popularity greatly since IWAY come about, and i dont think many people will be going away from them. Good shadow blades have been popping up alot, ive seen many already. I think fellblades will drop a little because of shadow blades, but people will get over how they look and the animation of fellblades will keep them at the top.
