How is the serverwide market for the Deathfist Pawn illusion?

    Two sellers on my server with the Deathfist Pawn illusion want 20-25 Krono. They claim that it could be the going server-wide price. I know some illusions go for 10 Krono on high population servers like Xegony but, for most Live servers, heritage crate illusions stay within the 3-6 Krono range. I am thinking people are testing the markets (keeping the illusion), a bit of hype, lessons learned from Ice Giant illusion (strong demand), and RL money issues due to the pandemic.

    Any observations of the price on your server?

    Ugh that makes me sad, stuff like this gets locked behind loot crates. Great news for people selling things for real money though.

    It’s an illusion with 0 player power and unable to use mounts, 25 Krono is insane and sounds like a newb who thinks they just struck gold.

    Yeah I would never be paying anything close to that for an illusion. Well I would never pay krono for an illusion period but I hear there is one born every minute.

    Wait a month and you'll find one for 1 or 2 Krono. Those sellers will be kicking themselves in the butt if passing up on anything over 5 Krono right now.

    First one i saw on FV was having trouble moving at 15m (5 kronos). It's not an ice giant ffs. 20-25kr is epic gouging. Serverwide prices aren't a thing, either. Why would someone pay a transfer for an item that's worth less than it costs to transfer?

    yea someone on fv was looking for 10m was hoping for a better looking illusion pale against the ice giant illusion which run 20m+ which is actually what I sold when it was new. hoping the mount looks cooler. haha 20-25 kronos that's crazy.

    The new horse was going for 20M at fist. Now I see the same seller trying to sell it for 4M. Same thing will happen with the orc illusion. Be patient if you want one. It will go down in price.

    Thanks for the feedback everyone!

    I will wait in the hopes of a decent price.

    My only fear is that I had trouble obtaining the Veil of Veksar. I only saw it twice for sale since the Iksar crate release. I worry that, with the less desirable human crate mount (like Iksar crate), I may end up the same situation with no opportunities. I think the Halasian Battle Bear mount encouraged additional purchases of Barbarian crate and a slight surplus of Ice Giant illusions flooded the market. I wish the human mount were a griffon/pridewing but I appreciate the devs for putting out these crates. :)

    only a moron, I mean PURE moron would pay that . its nothing but a illusion with no useable stats or viable use other then looking cute, I swear it saddens me that there are people in this game that might pay that f or it. just sad.

    1mil pp isnt alot .. thats only a few days of farming .. now i would agree with you if say someone was gonna actually pay R/L money for it by buying krono's and paying 1 to 10 krono for it then yes that would sadden me, however a million pp is not bad for a cute illusion :p

    I am sensing that the Daring Deathfist Disguise will fall into the Very Rare category with the Wiltedblossom Wreath and Veil of Veksar.

    My assessment of past illusions:

    Helm of the Fourth Gate Guardian - High Demand/Rare
    Wiltedblossom Wreath - Very High Demand/Very Rare
    Veil of Veksar - Moderate Demand/Very Rare
    Ice Giant Façade - Very High Demand/Uncommon*
    Guise of the Gilded Clockwork - Moderate Demand/Rare
    Face of the Drowned - Moderate Demand/Rare
    Daring Deathfist Disguise - Very High Demand/Very Rare?

    *There was a surplus of Ice Giant Façade as an equal amount of people were interested in the Halasian Battle Bear mount. I am a bit worried that the Daring Deathfist Disguise has that old model charm (like Ice Giant) but a low-demand mount.
  14. feeltheburn Augur

    yes I can deal on a million but a million is not 20-25 kronos tho

    The Human Heritage crates have ugly armor, a horse that came from a parade in Mexico, a Deathfist Pawn that looks silly in 2020, and some crappy familiars. I guess the portals is all it has going for it.

    The Deathfist Pawn isn't worth more than a krono, but some people will pay more for a while.

    I'd trade a Royal Antonican Sokokar mount for the wreath and the deathfist one, but the chances of finding someone with both seems remote.
