WTB Spider Shortbow and Deathly Medium Shoulders
The mats to make the spider short bow are very expensive, specifically the destroyer lodestones. I would guess the entire thing is pushing 250-300 gold in mats. Sure it looks ok, but might as well go for legendary if your blowing that kind of cash, imo.
The Halloween weapons are basically legendaries that don’t require precursors: therefore, they will absolutely be cheaper. A precursor by itself can be over 300 gold already, and prices are rising.
They require nothing like the amount of mats a legendary costs. All you need is 100charged lodestones, 250 ori ingots, 20 ectos and 500 dungeon tokens to make the one gift that is used.
The other components will probably be and eldrich scroll, 100 or so mystic coins and 250 T6 major weapon components of the corresponding type
and everybody completely missed the point…
Using a Gift in a weapon craft (correct me if you have an example) is guaranteed soulbound or account bound as soon as you make the final product. So basically you make it yourself. The recipe is all you can buy on the TP and that’s less than a tenth of the price to actually use that recipe to craft. So basically, this thread is useless.
The shoulders, however, are a cheap consumable used to re-skin existing pads permanently. You can find those anytime on the trading post if you search for “skin” (quickest shortest word I could think of).

The weapons are tradable. It was mentioned in a dev post. Also, legendaries are bind on equip, so your statement about using a gift in a weapon craft results in a soul/account bind is also false.
Some gifted weapons are soulbound on acquire, some are not. Aether is tradeable.
All legendary weapons are trade able thus far, I’m also yet to find a gift created weapon that is not – you can see most of them up for sale on the trading post – if they’re not there it doesn’t mean they’re not, its just they haven;t been traded yet. That’s all.
