Do infinite gathering tools ever go on sale?
I’ve never seen one of them go on sale for lower than the set price. That doesn’t mean they won’t, but most limited-time items don’t.

Because we can’t be angry about both?

Back in January, a complete set of tools went on sale. The was reduced significantly, but you had to buy the entire set.

Great! That would fit my interests perfectly, so I’ll wait for another one of those. Thanks!

It’s very low odds that’ll even happen though. Keep in mind that for 1k gems worth of gold, you could buy enough tools to never run out. The harvest items are mostly a look item.
Looks and convenience. I bought mine (for 5 characters, no less) simply because it meant I would never have to worry about tools running out or having to swap tools when in different maps ever again.
I would be happy if they simply bring back the Consortium Harvesting Sickle at some day .. since i only have 6 of them and at the moment i could really need 2-3 more
Its so annyoing to harvest with normal Sickles if you are used to that one.
Best MMOs are the ones that never make it. Therefore Stargate Online wins.
As someone mentioned before, the only sale has been all 3 tools at once – so much like real life where, for example, a set of 4 tires together are cheaper than 4 separate. Never had an individual tool gone on sale.

Completely disagree. They are a convenience item to never need to worry about gathering tools ever again.
I don’t give a rodent behind what the animation looks like…..
Fate is just the weight of circumstances
That’s the way that lady luck dances
Animation is one thing, but especially the Consortium Sickle after it second fix also got simply faster than normal sickles. And really if you harvest with 6 chars with the fast one, and then with 2 or three other with the normal one .. you always wish you had more Consortium Sickles

If they didn’t list them for 1000 I’d be all over it. That extra 200gems that requires you to purchase 1600 total is what really gets me. I mean. Come on! It’s principle at this point that I’m not buying it.
It’s a medical condition, they say its terminal….
I don’t get people who are buying this crap especially for all characters, you are harvesting to earn gold but these tools are too expensive to be profitable.

You don’t buy these tools to make a profit, you buy them for convenience. Or appearance.

Yep—that’s why—convenience is the main reason!!
Much better than wasting gems on town clothes and other useless bling.

And i don’t get why people spend 700 gold for a set of ascended armor that makes them in total not even 1% better

Absolutely!

While I agree with the point, the improvement is actually closer to 5% (still not worth it in my view).

Not really .. the improvement compared to exotic armor is maybe 5% .. but the improvement of your total character stats is much less.
For example a strength based character has normally around 3000 str, a berserker ascended armor has in total 15 or 16 points more str than exotic, so you get 0,5% more total strenght.
A zerker has maybe 100% crit damage .. the whole armor set gives +1% crit .. so thats 1% more.

I bought all eighteen of mine (fifteen were bought when they were still soulbound, and the remaining three were just habit at that point) with gold converted to gems, and I’ve got more gold now than I did then.
People who try to do a “you have to harvest x amount of such and such to justify it” are missing out on a whole quality of life improvement.
If you don’t want the infinite tools, or can’t justify the expense to yourself, that’s fine. Maybe your style of gameplay won’t be enhanced by them. It’s been a godsend for me, though.
They used to only cost 25g in gems
Pretty inflated now.
Gems are far too expensive if you use in game gold. This is mainly due to people flipping the TP. A guy in my guild last night bought a legendary bow and then sold it for an extra 150gold in less than 5 minutes. This kind of thing is why prices are so ridiculous imo
