It only takes one bori to pay the most ridiculous price and apparently there are a few like him lately so no wonder prices gone that high.
Not understanding how the game works and what you can do with certain tools, yeah, the price may seem ridiculous. In the end it's just an investment with certain ROI for some, or a gambling tool for others. It's a matter of perspective really.... but if you can't grasp the basics, doesn't mean that others are on drugs.
As for prices going down pre-covid, I doubt, since people that have been using them have realized the potential and got some results, they just won't sell them... imo
I wouldn't assume, that because I can do a statistical analysis and prove mathematically that there is no way to justify that price that I "don't understand the basiscs".
I'm curious, how can you prove the price is not justifiable?The issue to me is, I have seen the real numbers on returns with these weapons. The real numbers I have seen do not match what has been posted as returns on PCF. The returns with these weapons don't justify a 500k price tag.

What does it even mean "real numbers" ?
Both the justification and the results with such a tool ar per case and results may vary greatly. Some choose to hunt pupugi with BC120 some decide to chase MU. Their results would greatly vary.... and both would have real numbers just that one would probably chase skill and the other could make a lot of profit...
Again, some know exactly what they get and what to do with these, others just get them because they're top and maybe it will work....
But they also have real numbers... yet that doesn't make my numbers any less real.the amount of people who think tehy can spend 150k on a gun and then go shoot 5k hp mobs with a 10k ped bankroll is fucking astonishing.
At least a weapon does something. There has been a guy on calytrade trying to sell a pair of "FEN" sunglasses for 100k.
Isn't it painful to wait for it to happen, 16 years and going, maybe another 50 years? Imagine your losses due to using low grade equipment.If MA stumbles over the server's power plug and decides not to plug it in again...
I cant wait to see the faces of the ppl paying 50.000 US$ for some pixels...
I will die laughing.

I'm like you Kaiser in that I see some of these prices, do the math and even factoring in likely resale value in 2-4 years, I still fail to see the huge profit potential at those price points.
But then again, here's the reality of things: Yeah some folks pay WAY above the average price. Others, for various reasons get an item way below average.
You're always complaining on people's threads about their prices, since like forever, covid has nothing to do with it. Everything is too expensive for you. Maybe stay L?Also, when people mass leave again, after covid is a distant memory, prices will go back to what they were. May take a year or two.
Well this is the difference for you and me.some people who knew when and where to invest in this game, what to hunt, what to craft, where to mine
Has anyone else noticed that people are are apparently doing tons of drugs lately?
Who is going to pay 500,000 PED for a gun?
It is very likely that "soon" there will be changes that will affect this monopoly of weapons 2.0, which has long since exceeded all limits.
These distributors try to make the most profit before it happens.
Only an idiot would spend $50k in an unstable and unclear environment.
We will see an end of this inflation, if not an implosion of those inflated prices, when owners start to realize that TWEN is coming soon, with its own new and better weaponry.
this is dogmatic "if u think different than me then here is a nice insult for you that closes the conversation".Only an idiot would spend $50k in an unstable and unclear environment.
Evey Thank You. this is a "Wax on...wax off" video
the analogies with the sword means really a good tool makes the difference.
BUT... correctly it is at last place.
to use a tool need to ahve skills. a BP120 (i cant use yet) with my 37 evader adn 41 looter would be useless
weapon is important but skill set is even more. But on convenience of weapons vs cost...
making a calculation a BP40 compared to a ewe41adj is saving you a 30 pec per L18 atrox (considering EFF linear and i think it is not linear)
a BP40 cost 40k ped a ewe41 cost 4k so it is 36.000 ped more (same dps around 41)
every 1000 atrox you save 300 ped
every 10.000 Atrox you save 3000 ped
every 100.000 atrox you save 30.000 ped
(no one would kill atrox because of bad MU but its an example)
as you kill 130.000 Atrox at jurra plateau you recouped markup
3.12 ped vs 3.42 ped per kill.... so.. .yo uneed to cycle maximum 500.000 Ped to recoup the cost of a 2.0 small weapon
i cycle 130.000 per month so it is 3 month.
to me it is too low as a weapon 40 dps for the cost it has while skilling, prefer to use other tatics
but as i hit 80 i will try to get a LP70 opr BP70 that require 9 month to recoup the upfront markup
because that "tool" cuts the tree.... an armatrix LP70 does not.....
in the meantinme... wax on... wax off
/btw ,.... i 2870 and MM40 and macmahon and 38 night are a 70ish eff decent upgrade)
look what i wrote a while again....:
.... so.. .yo uneed to cycle maximum 500.000 Ped to recoup the cost of a 2.0 small weapon
Reducing costs by 1 pec is not a gain of 1 pec.
