If your one of the few with a nice chunk of change, or has the ability to obtain a reasonable amount of vis before the transfer, buy great stones.
I said this before, and I am not entirely sure if I can stress it enough, but buy great stones in order to stock up on lollipops.
If you have the ability to stock up on more than just 1k pink lollipops, do so. Think big, think large scale, the amount of money you spend today, you could end up making double that, if not more, far down the road. Lollipops are something that will be a "timed" investment. Once we transfer, tons of people will still have thousands of lollipops. But people will continue to use those lollipops every day. Especially if the server is divided into two alliances with one pvp alliance; in a lollipop able zone, they'll be spamming pink / red / blue as if it was candy, just to try to over come their opponent on that specific raid; therefore, dimensioning the amount of lollipops in the server and slowly raising the demand - slowly.
People say well "There will be events for lollipops", that is true, yes, but I doubt these events will offer the ability to stock up on thousands of lollipops, probably only a couple hundred if that; as long as there are no bugs in being able to obtain 100% lollipops from these events.
So over time, lollipops will slowly disappear, it might take months, but the price for lollipops will rise. It is all based on supply and demand; these lollipops are enormously valuable, that's why they were removed in the first place. IMC created the lollipop and transformed it from a "need" to a "desire". Lollipops in the end, can be pretty game breaking if you look at it. It removes the need for speed, and speed is the need for dps, and dps is the need to win those high end raids (if you have the proper racial gear that is).
Therefore, according from the information that I know of, my best advice is to just continue stocking up on lollipops. In Orpesia, normal enchants in the market manager are now above 3.5m, yet great stones are still around 5-6m? Better buy them now before its to late!
Interesting... I already have a whole bunch of lollipops in the warehouse because I never use them and only knew what the red one did.
ReplyDeleteEarth stones are cheaper no?
ReplyDeletePink lollipop provides a 50% attack speed, blue lollipop provides 20+ more def, rainbow lollipop provides attack speed + movement speed, I believe 10% each, and black lollipop provides 20% more attack but something like -50 movement speed.
ReplyDeleteEarth stones, yeah, I forgot to look into those...
Also, from my Raiden box guide, people should be able to obtain more earth stones even more, so yeah either or works, which ever is more available and provides the best profitable outcome.
rainbow 20% speed and movement red -50% atk speed
ReplyDeleteRed is not -50% attack speed o.0 all it is is 100% movement speed.
