Getting people to spend 6.6m BS on what are essentially character attuned items is a huge win for Simu (massive drain + no effect on broader game).
The thing is, the extreme whale demand for 4-5 very niche items is what keeps prices reasonable for the rest of us, as it keeps the massive bloodscrip generation in check. I'm just concerned that the whale gravy train won't be around forever, and if that demand goes, the rest of us will have to bear the brunt of the changes.
