    on standard item prices in general are in a constant state of free fall, other than the rarest uniques (which, because theyer so rare, even with 500 iir you probably wont ever see one). Currency is much more resilient since theres a constant sink as it gets consumed on maps, so i feel like iiq...

    I sell things pretty quickly by going cheap. At the rate I acquire gear it's not worth holding onto things. Sell most quality gems 9-15 for 1-2 gcp and they go fast. Most uniques I sell for 1 jeweller up to 1 fusing. If they don't sell quick I just vendor them. Already paid 40$ for stash tabs...

    It's not worth trying too hard to get the best deal etc. Gear in standard is so common now you're much more likely to net a better yield by buying quickly and getting back to farming currency , rather than spending more time trying to squeeze the most bang for your buck, unless youre talking...

    Yea I know. I was referring to our map iq - between 70-100% on nearly every run and we couldn't even sustain a 67 map, let alone go up tiers. I wish the map drops were tied to personal iq then we would be loaded!

    starting to despise the rng in this game. I can understand burning a lot of currency on high maps. But me and hateyou were doing lvl 67 and 68 maps with close to 100% iq and on several occassions got no map. Got into a lvl 69 once, did 100iq, got a lvl 68 map, did 100 iq, got no maps. 5 hours...

    The Last of Us

    the dystopian environments look great but I still get the initial feeling that this is one in a long line of games that are adopting themes that I think were first masterfully brought into the genre with HL2.

    Switzerland and french riviera with elderly, handicapped grandma

    thanks for the advice! We were thinking of going to Interlaken and then the mountain that you can take a train to from there - jungfraujoch or something. Is that fairly accessible or is that more of a rugged trip? I'm trying to find a way to get them to experience the alps but I am worried...

    Never thought i'd bonermode looking at a furry but the art and graphics really look incredible. If nothing else I think this game will atleast set itself apart as the first mmo with some real heft in the graphical dept* *does not apply to wildstar graphics fans. I'd imagine those same people...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    I disagree completely with the cartoony graphics being the way to go. There is a right and wrong way to do 'realistic' graphics. HL2 was the right way. I am not saying their engine or design choices are applicable to an mmo, but, both games being from 2004, I certainly don't feel like those...

    Even though scraps/whetstones are so common you need so many that its going to be hard to have enuf during fuse runs. I'm close to 500 fusings on my way to stockpiling for a 6L attempt, but Ive only managed to throw together 1k scraps - that's only going to get me thru 50 attempts

    So if you have shitty luck like me with map drops, catacombs off marketplace is a convenient high level zone level 67, can get ivl69 items in there, glorious plate and Vaal regalia both drop, etc. xp is also miles better than docks if you're high 70s (but still shitty compared to map xp)
