Guild Wars 2

As of the previous 3-4 days both these items seem to have shot up I price? (especially powerful bloods)
This due to a bot ban?

Christmas Skins are going up in price because they will become unobtainable starting tomorrow. This is your last chance to get them cheap before the supply starts dwindling.

T6 mats are all rising in speculation for tomorrows patch. People are guessing that certain things will be used or changed in tomorrows patch so they buy them up so if there is a greater demand tomorrow they can make a profit.

Same with lodestones like Corrupted and Glacial (Frost) or Molten and Destroyer (Flame) so every TP trader is speculating.

Bloods usually good buy since it seems to be USE in EVERYTHING new.

The tier 6dust is going up and the tier 5dust has doubled since yesterday (only to 50c but still) so i imagine there’s alot of speculation for all the high end mats atm

2-3 wks ago it was 43s per stack. Now it is over a gold per stack of t5 dust.

As I stated, Holiday skins (specifically princess wand skins) are rising every day (seems every hour as people are bulk buying them)

Look at ghastly grinning shield… 2 weeks ago 20g now 150+g
Passion fruit seems to be rising to as people speculate on new recipe needs

All I’m gonna say is this. I bought the Clipper focus skin during the Karka event for 46s. It now sells for 25g+. I’m mad at myself for not buying more. Hell I bought two precursors during then for dirt cheap too. Oh well, lesson learned.

But is there a demand for the wand skins? Everyone could get them easily. So wouldn’t the people that wanted them have them?

I think people are more banking on new people, who weren’t here for the event, wanting them.
