I'm bored, we're sitting here in our call center not taking any calls so ....

What has happened to the market in GS? I rarely see anything worth buying being sold. There are a lot of high end items being sold most likely due to GS4. Where do you go to find items you want? A person can only watch the amunet so many hours in a day..

Tsin usually has everything, or knows someone who can get it. Shame he is a dick.

Most of the stuff you see Tsin selling is stuff off of Ciston's list of mega items.

Tsin's not too bad if you get to know him, but he is a little too obsessed with silvers and high end stuff....to the point where it's basically his life.

Just be wary if he tries to sell you something. Chances are it's an item for sale somewhere else that he's asking more for. Like one time not long ago he asked if I wanted to buy a 6x (I think) a day major sanct item for 30m. 10 minutes later I see some other guy selling it for 20m on the official boards.

Despite his obsession with silvers and his army of zombie characters though, he's really an ok person to bullshit with.

Yeah, I know. I got to be friends with him through the guild, however I don't consider it nice when someone you've just met constantly IM's you begging you to buy some shitty item simply so he can afford some fucking plate mail he will never buy. Plus he acts like a self indulgent child. I am glad I don't talk to him anymore, and if I ever want anything from him, or his legion of accounts, I'll be sure to use a third party.

People are probably hoarding it away in waiting for GSIV. Personally, if I had anything that I thought was going to be craptastic in GSIV, I'd ditch it for as much as I could get.

Crit weighted weapons are going down, I picked up a faenor waraxe for 1.6 mil the other day. Damage weighting here we come baby.

Heh, I think small amounts of crit weighted weapons are going to suck. My fish spine, though, while used with an ambusher, is still going to open up cans of whoop ass all over the place.

Have you not tried ambushing in GS4 yet? Crit weighting is pretty much useless, as the crit is now random. Although, now that enchant does not matter, the fact that its 0x doesn't really deter me from it as it used to.

On the other hand, daggers are going up in effectiveness. I have a buttload of crit and damage weighted daggers that I'm hording.

Dex *whines* can I borrow one? :P

Actually, Aone (my rogue) is still a level 13 cleric in the test instance...so I haven't. I kind of figured that the random crit would get boosted by the exceptional crit weighting.

Yeah that does get pretty annoying. He reminds me of a used car salesman. I don't really hang out with him in game much, mostly just blabber on IMs now and then.

His great low came when I said if I wanted something charged, I'd go to you Meth, but he said "nah, I have a better charger/enchanter" and promptly logged on Chazysm, his lvl 160 wizard.

Ha! Only thing I really don't like about Tsin other than him constantly trying to get me to buy shit that he knows I don't want is he hasn't earned any of the characters he has. They were all sold or given to him at an already high level. Oh well.

So Meth...how much to get on your 7x list? :D

Methais

I'll most likely be a shitty enchanter in GS4. I'm not going very high in wizard ranks. Current plan is 40 wizard ranks, 74 Minor ranks and putting everything else in major. Will be a kickass recharger though, if the spell isn't still hopeless like it is now.

Enchant isn't worth the time it takes anyway.

StrayRogue

How much for charging then? :P

Methais

Not sure yet. Ask again when GS4 rolls in ;)

HarmNone

Heh. Methais will recharge for nothing, hon. Just send in a lovely Sylvan to bat her eyelashes at him. He turns to mush. :D

HarmNone knows such things

Methais
09-25-2003, 01:51 PM
Bah, what do you know!

StrayRogue
09-25-2003, 01:51 PM
Time to get me a second account ;)

HarmNone
09-25-2003, 01:53 PM
That message was brought to you by my giggling mother from her place on the couch. ;)

HarmNone really does not know, but mom does!

Methais
09-25-2003, 01:57 PM
Who's mom?

HarmNone
09-25-2003, 02:04 PM
Heh. I ain't tellin! But, she is cracking up. :D

HarmNone is cracking up with her

StrayRogue

Damn you both!

Methais

Well that ruins the whole effect. I don't remember any sylvans batting their eyes at me anyway!
