I did actually, along with 26 other guys in the shop I was working for.  So on that note, fuck you.
And I should be nice or polite to anyone.... why exactly?

If you ask me, prices will go down. New upkeep is cruel to everyone, there are no money making friendly archers who stockpile gold and raise prices at marketplace. Now they bleed like everyone else. Earning money is hard, even with low end gear.

lol? now with WPF affecting upkeep, being an AGI build actually makes sense! Today i made 10 K in crpg gold, wearing 63k worth of equipment. My shit breaks a lot less because i have such a high WPF, its hilarious.

I don't even care about CRPG gold, i already have all the shit i want, except maybe horses for future cav. Its play money IMO.

Well with the new upkeep system now in effect I have personally seen some prices beginning to drop on the market. Instead of x1 heirlooms being priced 350k-400k I've been seeing a lot for 300k or less. People just can't afford to buy high priced items anymore when upkeep the way it is drains people's money so horribly.

Personally unless I was very desperate I wouldn't ever pay more than 300k for an heirloom in the first place so I can see where you're coming from dexxta.

At the same time though I understand why items are so expensive being that less and less people are retiring due to the lack of exp bonuses aswell as strategus being up and running.

Although I must admit that for me this has all been very profitable being I still retire on the regular and can sell heirloom points for about 470k each to people who don't want to retire and have to relevel.

I suggest gold and heirloom wipe with funny hats and halos as compensation.

I'd take 6!

This is the first smart choice chadz has made thus far.

Well.. making cRPG to begin with was okay.  And Strategus.  And.. aww heck, I'm overcome with so much love at this response that I can't even carry on the standard faux-chadz-hating.

Anyway, to the poor folk:

Yes, just sell your first heirloom point.  Sell the second.  Maybe sell all that you ever get; you'll have tons of money and will be able to use any normal equipment you want.

Heirloomed equipment, especially when it's just +1, is only marginally improved.  Some of you talk about it as if you're stuck using peasant rags, but if you could just get them heirloomed they would be as good as black armor.  Most likely you won't even notice the difference if you heirloom your usual weapon to +1 rather than selling the point.  Even getting it to +3 is only a slight difference.  But if you sell the point and have enough cash to use better normal equipment, you will notice a difference.

The boni from heirlooms come at no handycap though.
F.e. if I heirloom my armor I get +2 for the same price.
Selling it and buying +2 heavier armor costs between 1k and 4k more and has 2 more weight or something.
