Guild Wars 2

Hello!

Until I dropped Entropy I didn’t know that there were new skins. I checked on the website and they appeared in the new patch apparently. I thought “Great, I just dropped one!” then I checked the price on the TP. One. Hundred. Thirty. gold! Hey I didn’t think twice and put it on the TP and it sold within the hour. The skin will drop in price in the next few days. It’s a permanent addition so people will find this again and again, it’s a bit like Final Rest that was 80-100g when first dropped. I’ve played on the TP, so I’ve already gotten that kind of money several times.

Now you think “great man, gz, happy for you, enjoy the money, stop showing off on the forum”. Well thanks, but that’s not why I create this topic.

I want to know what comes to mind of people that buy it. How come those guys spend 130g on this kind of items, especially since the biggest farm spot (CoF1) has been nerfed. Farmers can’t make that amount in a short amount of time like they used to with CoF. So why spend so much? And I’m not even talking about Genesis that was, last I checked, 300g! These items are new so the price can only drop! I’m not saying the price should be like 2g like all other exotics given the specialy of the skin, but more in the range of 10-30g. So what makes people spend so much on a random drop?

Because there’s nothing else to do in this game with money but collect new skins.

also lol at “showing off” 100g. are you being serious?

Entropy was 250g earlier and still selling. It is the best looking none legendary hammer in game atm.

Well OP, you saw 130g and didn’t think twice. Other people don’t think twice about spending 130g for things they want. Sure the price may drop in a week or two, but why wait if you have the money and want it now?

Also I love your signature. Great way to tell us that you have. Maybe the new forum trend should be putting imgur links of our wallets

People like having exclusive skins. Right now those skins are exclusive since the patch isn’t a week old, and it only comes from certain mobs.

Also, there is a lot of disposable income to go around, especially when you are maxed out on legendaries/armors.

For some people that sort of money is spare change, I’m sure people can make hundreds of gold a day by casually playing just by playing the TP.

Aw don’t complain.The more morons on the tp,the better for the rest of us who like free dough

Gauntlet and some of the current champ farms yield far more money then CoF ever did.

I’m talking 15-20g/hr farms.
