Isn't gold like meaningless in this mod since 2012? They put so many damn gold sinks because of gold inflation. Why does it matter how much item cost? If it bothers you that much name them Supreme stones and sell them for 10k a stack, just buff the goddamn stats.
Also don't cry about stats of items like shurikens and throwing knives. Those items are like that for a reason that predates time. Thanks to Thomek and his bundle of sticksry, balancers had to gimp those gay ass items in order to stop them becoming too popular because every nerd ass wants to play as goddamn ninja.
Throwing hammers are neat but they are slow large, can be noticed easily. Thing about stones, archers can't notice them easily so you can sneak in and stun lock lil bastards. Pisses them off to no end, more than being killed by two-ha hero or their heads being picked by a lancer.
There was always serious discrimination towards throwing as play style in cRPG. Probably because it reminds players of close combat FPS style combat like playing with shotguns or SMGs. While pesky snipers such as xbowmy old friends or archers always get the pass, throwers always had to deal with numerous nerfs that hit them because no one in this forsaken community has sympathy for throwing.
