Does really this game gives more importance to accessories than good weapons?
This fact make me think:
It's more fun make a costume in SK nowdays, or get a good gear?... :L
(Oh, maybe I say wrong huh... but (imo) doesnt it lose the sense of this game, in first place? or SK means ''costumes show''?)

...Sigh...
TOPIC CHANGED: No sense quarrel between Feller, Feyi and Dragneel.

(Anyway ty for who answered my post with not outopic and annoying comments :).)

Haven...

Although some "Veterans" don't even go to the Clockworks... They just stay at Haven, so costumes,wings,auras,halos are more important than gear. They have shiny Clone armor-that's enough. After "making" the costumes they want, there's no need to fight those bad creatures in the CWs-gear isn't important. And there's another source of crowns-I call it "The materials Mafia".

Your information is false actually. Twilight Aura goes from 1m - 2m crowns at most, mainly between 1.4m - 1.6m crowns. While Final Flourish ASI VH is worth about 2.25m - 2.5m crowns sometimes. It's true that Twilight Aura costed around 3m - 6m crowns before, but I am talking about the meantime. And in general, rare costumes and accessories are more expensive than weapons with decent UVs. Why is that? Well... I am going to summarize it in this sentence:

"Human's nature love for showing-off."

Quite frankly, ANYBODY can

Quite frankly, ANYBODY can craft equipment. Equipment is a potentially infinite resource. Hop on the auction house, and see how many hundreds of wolver coats are up at any given time. For the most part, for the 5* gear, everybody crafts their own. Rolls their own UV's, etc. You can roll really as many times as you want with Punch to get that ASI VH, etc. Equipment is pretty easy to get.

Accessories are MUCH, MUCH rarer. Especially the really rare ones, ie., Twilight Aura. The more rare something is, the more rewarding it is to add to the trophy case.

So while this isn't technically "a game of dressup"... the greatest tangible rewards in the game happen to be cosmetic rather than functional.

To summarize... it's not the game that directly gives it more importance, it's the players who do, by recognizing at some level the basic idea of supply vs. demand.

I mean sure, someone without UVs and plate armor will be slower than you and your maxed flourish.
But those are extremes. A med UV is already fine.

I'd rather look like a queen than than swing an already fast sword faster.

@Feller:
Shut up honey. Nobody likes you here and all of the unknown people you brag about despise you and your pathetic, idiotic and repetitive posts. You are an imbecile, and due to that, you maintain a repulsive form, which is resembled in your idiotic posts. I suggest you go visit a psychiatrist, immediately.

@melma. you'll notice that,

@melma.
you'll notice that, when you get endgame, you're so bored that gear won't even matter that much.
plus, everyone your level will have gear as good as yours (and personally, you're gonna find way more gear>skill situations around here).
so, you've got a small amount of choices. either go full winmilliontard and look for fun in fighting devil-its, or make yourself look like someone stapled you with acessories as a joke.
the last one is WAY more chosen.
oh, one more thing?
accesories link to p2p more than weps, even if uv'd. wanna get jelly looks?
prismatic halo>piercing high uv on a skolver cap.(or any other)
but preferably both.

You want to talk about a MISTAKE?!

@Feller: YOU, SIR. You are a mistake on this planet! OOO's mistake was unbanning you. But see, with enough support from players, you can and may or may not be banned again veryyyy soon if you continue pushing the wrong buttons. Press the wrong button, I dare you.

Also, a HUUUUUGE LMFAO to your comment of not insulting AT users.

@Melma: I think upgrading your gear is better than costumes but it really depends on what you like to do... PvE or make your knight look dazzling.

Back to the point, the price WILL vary depending on events/other items like that on the AH. Besides, you can easily get lucky on Punch, while getting an aura is much harder, since lockboxes are nefariously hard to deal with, at least for me. But, just my opinion.

By time I made it to the "Post new comment" section I felt like I lost a few too many brain cells.. it hurts.

And yeah.. while Twilight Auras are only on the featured auction house anyone could craft or roll an ASI VH FF. Personally I have one and don't even use it in Lockdown except rare occasions which I end up changing loadouts anyway because I don't like FF. It was a gift from a friend that quit this game.

Not to note that the chances of getting a Twilight Aura from a lockbox are so ridiculous.. and then to get a lock box and buy a silver key.

As much as I'd like to get a Twilight Aura. I don't see myself paying how much they go for.

@Flowchart:
Forgive me, I forgot to mention that I am going to reply to Feller till the end and see where is this going, but I liked to warn Feyi-Feyi from talking with him, because it is pointless. It's true that there is no need in replying to Feller's comments, but I just can't hold myself anymore, thus why I don't want anyone to turn like me.

@Feller:
Enjoying it behind your screen I see? Man... At least bring facts when you are talking.

"So please my cutie kiddo, try to keep your opinions at minimun when you have no idea what you're talking about.. merchanting or pvp."
Are you a Professor that can evaluate my knowledge about something? I'm pretty sure you don't know anything I am talking about, mainly because your an idiot.

"The problem is that noobs.. may believe that you know what you're talking about.. and that's a mistake."
I am pretty sure about my info, prove me wrong. Oh wait... That's your proof I suppose:

Because I'm a fcking RICH Merchant and I've sold more than 6 twilights during my SK life and 10 ASI VH FF, without counting the ones I lost or gift (yes I do gift this craps)."
Wow! Best proof ever! Hands down! Ok, time to deny it.
Seeing that you are an "Old dirty Bastard", you probably sold these OMG OMG OMG 10 asi VH FF and 6 Twilight Auras back in the days. And if you read my post carefully, but you didn't, you will see me mentioning that Twilight Auras used to go from 3m-6m crowns before. Nowadays, I barely saw one going over 2m crowns.
Denied.
Oh by the way, how can someone lose an item/accessory from his inventory? Oh yeah, you were hacked before... It was a grave mistake that OOO brought you back here.

@Everyone

Your conversations with Feller are boring. When most people say stupid things, it's amusing shutting them down. But his posts are so evidently dripping with dumb that no-one even needs to do that; he's making a big enough fool of himself. He's wasting space, but whoever responds to him is even moreso because their posts are larger and for what? Naught. He's not listening to you, and that's what makes him a successful troll. Now you can either feed him, consuming your own time, energy, and derailing the thread (not to mention adding yourself to the list of people he's trolled), or you can ignore him and get on with your lives.
