    New Nyzul disappointment doubled to quintupled Alexandrite prices. Your move, SE.

    Old ripoff: 10K
    New ripoffs: 20K to 50K

    They were 30-50k on Asura before and after the update.

    Only reason some people dropped it prior was to unload their stock before the potential price-drop on alex if Nyzul2 didn't bomb as bad as it did. Lord knows that never happened though.

    I like the new nyzul for this. It almost better money than dynamis now, hope it goes higher.

    Unless you're actively killing NMs when you don't need to (which nobody is because of the strict time limit) there's not much of an alex return on neo-nyzul. Best we've got from 4 runs is 61 alex, so 10 each if you're splitting six ways.

    I'd suggest upgrading the level of alex everything can drop in there:

    Normal mobs can drop singles
    NMs can drop cotton purse
    20/40/60 etc. NMs can drop linen purse

    As it stands neo-nyzul has had zero impact on alex supply, it's just getting worse and worse.

    20k sounds perfectly reasonable for the people that are going out of their way to farm these for the purpose of making gil haha. I do agree alex supply is low, but low supply means higher prices. And gil is extremely easy to make. Your only issue should be finding the alexandrite. I know I don't own a relic, but I know it's pretty easy to make 2-3 million gil a day if you set your mind to it.

    When I said "it" is almost better than dynamis I meant that salvage farming is almost better than dynamis. 30 min = 30 alex = 600k. Soon it i sgoing to be better as dynamis coins prices keeps decreasing while alex seems to explode. Granted not BST-soloable.

    Gil might be easier to make, but 600 million gil for a mythic weapon is ridiculous any way you look at it.

    Highest I've seen is 30k (and they don't seem to sell at all), and I check bazaars on a daily basis and have been doing so since the 99 empyrean weapon trial was introduced. I have a good friend who's working on a mythic and I often pick up alexandrites for him for 10-13k.
