Anyway, mine is buying dragon armor and Fow, although I don't regret the fow for my monk due to ectos only(10k ecto) dyed all black(dye was 8k each then) and even though I love the look of the dragon, I'm a common sense type guy and My mind is screaming "moron, should've gotten glad + knight/ascalon boots. Oh well, so much for that. Never really lost alot of money I didn't make back :\

Wish they up the 1000plat cap on storage though, it could easily go 10,000 plat IMHO if anet just wanted to.

Its a axe that you would of get off the quest Scavangers of Old Ascalon (or Scavengers of Ascalon) and that axe allowed you to add 2x enchantment mods(like 20% longer 2x times) or like hp upgrade component. It was overpowerd so they nerfed it. BTW back then a 18% longer enchant or 20% would go over 100k.

dyes, omg. i spend WAY to much gold changing armor colors when im bored. >.<

I don't get it, there are items like HOD swords and 15% FFS that have been removed ingame that doesn't seem to have been touched while that axe was removed? oh well, guess its one more nerfed item I never got the insight to take -_- I'll keep a lookout for potential items chp 2 ^^

Oh and now I remember! I made an ele that I got ran to droknar then got her a pyro set, used her as storage then just deleted her. Now I use a pvp char as storage ^^ maybe that'll get deleted too, but it only has collector items.

1000k on a 15>50 req 10 chaos axe. It was a great deal at the time, was reconsidering reselling for 2X, mabye 3X the price, then SF happened.

IMO the axe was fixed was because it was incredibly overpowered. 5% extra chance of skill recharge isnt going to single handedly win a match, and neither is 2 energy. It helps but wont pwn all. The 40% enchant axe was different, with the correct use it could dominate matches.

I've never failed to salvage any runes, and I go rune farming a lot.
but I've never sold any gold items or any runes except supVig, supAbs, and supMonk runes to players.

so I guess I've lost a lot of money on gold items




and Storm of Death wins, most crappy thing ever done by a GW account holder

also buying all my ectos at 7.5 thinking that they couldn't possibly go lower


still need 72 shards :/\

I have 250k once before but than my shopping spreed kicked in.

80k + bunch of items + one ecto + one IDS for a Purple Crystalline Sword
55k for a perfect Composite Bow
50k for a decent purple sephis axe
40k for the newly acquired fellblade
around 50k or so in upgrade items.
and dyes...

How long it took for you to get 98 of them and don't tell me you planning on getting a whole stack.
