Hello, I have recently stated playing this game and so far I am enjoying it. I have a love (bordering obsession) with ice powers, abilities etc. I saw through some channels the arctic material and would like to get one. My question is, is it still possible to get one from any of the current time capsules like the current mega capsule. I see on the DCUO site where it says it can contain loot from previous capsules. If it is not possible to get it from the current capsules do they rotate items like this back into rotation after a while? I am setting an ice dragon themed character, think Toshiro from the Bleach anima.
Updating this, I have come into possession of a wicked chroma pack and sparking material I would be willing to trade one for the arctic material if anyone is interested, I play on the NS.
I haven't opened too many megas this round, but I'm not sure I've seen any of the 'powerset' materials. Lots of skins, chromas, auras and of course the tendrils, but I don't recall materials. They may not be in there this round...or I might just not have noticed or had bad luck. Have you looked on the broker? If they ARE dropping in this mega, you should see many powerset materials in there...maybe even that arctic you need. Happy Hunting. EDIT: read your 2nd message. If that sparking material came out of a current mega, then all the powersets should be in them. That at least gives you a shot at it from a drop, and should increase the chances of one in the broker greatly.
Thanks for the information! I was hoping that getting the scorched and sparking mats would mean the powersets where back. I did see one in the broker late last night for 6mil to my surprise but I was about 5.7mil short of that goal . I'm hoping I may be able to do a trade with someone to get one soon. If you don't mind my asking, (other then broker) what would be the most effective way to sell a chroma pack and sparking material? Also would a chroma pack being that it contains 3 materials go for significantly more then a single material? I was going to try my hand at trading the wicked chrome pack for the arctic material and aura if that was a fair trade.
Well, I'm not familiar with the NS broker, but I'd always suggest selling there. To me, unless you are selling something in the 100's of millions range, putting on the broker is quicker and easier than shouting in trade chat all day. The hard part is setting the price. Personally if I'm unsure of a price, I'll either wait till one gets listed then undercut it by 20% at least...or compare to like items and go with that number. For a wicked chroma pack, I'd look for other powerset chroma packs like wild or temporal...but keep in mind that arctic/scorching/furious and sparking are generally MORE expensive than many of the others. Again, NS might be different....maybe 'Wild' is the highest in demand one there, so don't take any of the above as gospel. A better idea might just be to hustle up the 6M. Find the things that sell fast and expensive (on PS/PC, that's generally OP food and catalysts, they bring in 1-2M each...probably less on NS though), and just plan on buying the one you saw or another. Right now, selling things that are coming out of megas likely means you will be facing competition for the same items from other people, and being undercut as other people keep opening boxes. Unless there is a huge market for what you have...in which case, by all means, go get paid right now. As far as selling the pack contents vs the full pack, I think the contents are account bound. Can't recall off hand, but I don't think you can open then sell on material/chroma packs. Good luck.
What server are you on? If you’re on PSN add me. Same name as here but there’s a space between the names. So it looks like Hurricane Errl lol. I might have an extra one you can have and if I don’t I’ll buy you one if there’s one available on the broker. I just started playing again and don’t mind helping out Edit: crap I just read the whole post and saw you’re on switch. Sorry I can’t help there
Alot of things to consider there. I'm going to look into what else sells in th NS market. Wait and see how prices go. The market does seem like it has a smaller stock then I would expect. I appreciate all the information. Think I'll go look up some good money farming methods and places.
Sadly I am on switch but I do want to thank you for the willingness to help. I've found that to be very uncommon and admirable. Again greatly appreciate the offer.
While I understand that if you don't got it, you don't got it, $6M is a VERY low price for that material. They were going for $300M-$500M and sometimes even much higher before they returned to mega capsules and even after that, they were going for $80M-$150M outside the timeframes when mega capsules were active and between $40M-$60M when they have been active. As for trading, Sparking seems to have been more popular than Arctic so you may find a good trade there. And no, typically chromas aren't really seen as three materials so they don't really garner a much higher price than singular materials for that reason. The things that matter most are rarity and how well and widely people like them. That being said, because chromas make better use of color channels and have a much higher degree of flexibility and variety, they tend to be a bit more popular and therefore a bit more valuable on average. But they're not seen as "three materials". Edit: Just saw you said you're on NS server. Your economy hasn't seen anywhere near the inflation that the NA PS/PC server economy has seen so the prices I gave above don't really apply. I can't really say if $6M is a good price on your server or not. I do hope you get what you seek one way or another though. Happy Hunting.
Yeah, I'm getting the feeling ns is a much smaller community. The broker doesn't have much on it. Right now I'm trying to figure out ways to make cash in game to get that 6 mil asap. Most money making ways I've come across is more focused on buy TCs and selling stuff in them.
