crest hmm id say 20k starting bid if people bought shields as much as before pvp, but now no idea
sealed sword, minimum 18k, id go with 30k
BTS w/Normal Max + Shadow Key for Crest Of Almire
thats no where enough to trade for the crest :o
its worth more probably but my bid for now
Not really looking to sell either unless a very good offer comes in. Got an in-game mail offer of 40k CE for the shield, not sure if he was just trolling me or not. Anyway guys, more price checks thanks!!
@Rubyflower: Umm, we'll see.
@Munya: I'll have to see if the current in-game offer is credible, or just a troll.
@Giannii: Thanks for the constructive price checks, appreciate it.
don't know why a sealed sword with asi/ctr med would go for any more than an asi vh or ctr vh. in terms of stacking bonuses, they're equivalent.
Usual price for ASI VH = 20k, CTR VH = 25k
But nowadays people want to pay for ASI VH = 15k, CTR VH = 20k
Since we got half asi half ctr, for the minimum price we go with the average of the minimum prices = ~18k, that one's easy
For the maximum, we start with the maximum possible price as a base, 25k. However that focuses your sword on charge attacks, having half asi half ctr lets you change the focus of your sword depending on whatever you prefer at the time with more ease. The alternative, having one sword for each bonus costs at least 35k, if not 45. Hence I'd go with 30k. Also add collector's reasons if you like, but since 20 and 25 are both contained within [18,30] I don't see the problem.
your pricing has absolutely no basis in logic. none, whatsoever.
to get max ctr on a blank sealed, you need 10 heat and 2 ctr modules. with ctr vh, you only need 10 heat. with ctr med, 1 module.
to get max asi on a blank sealed, you need 2 strike modules and asi med, or some combination of those and vog armor. again, 3 medium bonuses or 1 vh, 1 medium. same as ctr.
now, the only difference between a ctr vh or asi vh and the ctr/asi med is that your VH bonus is spread across 2 bonuses. so instead of needing the ctr module x2 on a blank or none on a vh, you need 1 on a medium. max ctr right there. with asi med, you need vog and a module to hit max asi. the only difference is that you trade 1 module for another of a different kind.
double med is the same exact thing as a VH if you are looking to maximize bonuses. they just require slightly different gear sets.
While technically equivalent to ASI VH or CTR VH as noted above, and having no ASI bonus when used with full Vog (unlike ASI VH), this would only be true when considered the weapon by itself. But unless every single sword you possess are Med CTR and Med ASI (unusual, and I suspect statistically harder to acquire), there is still more risk of "waste" than CTR VH if you lean towards one bonus over the other.
Suppose is someone tend to favour CTR bonuses on most swords s/he uses, and wishes to max that bonus foremost. If every sword was split Med CTR/MedASI, then it would be simple: get an Elite Sword Focus module (and get the swords to L10). The other trinket slots could be reserved for something else (Quick Strike or Slash depending on preference).
However, if *one* sword in the arsenal is a CTR VH instead, then that's 2 points wasted. And if more swords in the arsenal is CTR VH, then the person would probably be better off accepting that this sword will have to do with CTR VHigh + 2 extra points in ASI instead of ASI Max. Still perfectly fine, and possibly better for someone looking to make a Faust.
Overall, I am of the opinion that this sword that few would pay more than a CTR VHigh, unless they have very, very specific requirements for what they want to craft, and how it would fit into their arsenal.
I suspect that the average buying looking to make a DA would consider the sword to be worth between CTR VHigh and CTR ASI rather than paying a premium for the dual UV.
oh I agree that ctr vh is worth more (on most swords) than asi vh or a med split. but to price an asi/ctr med sword more than ctr vh is ridiculous. it is MAYBE equivalent to asi vh in price.
Why would people go full swords if they can pay for uvs (I imagine going all out on a weapon type is because you want to maximize your trinket bonuses). I always bring one of each kind of weapon with me. I do agree few would pay what I say, but you dont have 20 swords, you only got one anyway :P
@Misogyny: Personally, I am leaning towards between ASI VH and CTR VH in price. The big issue I have with ASI VHigh is the ever popular Vog. Yes there are other armour out there there are more suitable at time, but the fact remains that when the Vog is one of the optimal choice for a particular strata, ASI VHigh is wasted. But as usual, it is worth what it is worth to the buyer. It might be that CTR Med / ASI Med somehow fits one person's arsenal more than ASI or CTR VH, but I suspect it's an exception than the norm. However, if such buyer exist, then it may well be worth more than CTR VHigh to him/her. In terms of rarity, I suspect that it is harder / more expensive to roll ASI Med / CTR Med (specifically), than it is to roll for one VH. If I was the seller of the sword, and in no hurry to get rid of, I may be tempted to price it fairly high just to see. Realistically though, I agree that it's not likely to go for even CTR VHigh price.
@Giannii: I do not entirely follow what paying for UVs has to do with going full swords. I have different loadouts depending on where I go and who I play with. But it is highly probable that I will have at least two of my four weapon slots will be swords.
you can't count "the right buyer" in market pricing though.
Don't know how much they are but I'd want to make offers on both when you figure out pricing.
