selling wins

[Penthea]

There's no way only 1% of raiders do this. That's never how stuff like this works.

Only 1% of raiders are good enough to carry someone in content that is designed to be brutally difficult for 8 people. Ultimate content is so difficult that most raid teams who attempt can't kill it with 8 people, nevermind with 7 and a dead weight.

The reason why they can sell the clears for so much money is because they have a monopoly on that market. If it was commonplace to be able to sell ultimate kills, no way could anyone charge several hundred dollars/euros/etc and have any customers.

They actually log into your account in the most HC content and play your character for you so they have 8 people.

Fair enough. But it's still true that only a tiny percentage of players can even kill an ultimate boss while it's still current.

Wait, is that how they sell wins?
They literally get onto your account?
Who in their right mind...

I always thought they just carry you in their with them.

It depends on the content and capabilities of the team. Ultimate would absolutely require them to use your character whereas primals and the majority of Savage is dooable with 7 and the buyer sitting there dead.

EZ content (say, most EX primals), the buyer shows up and they tell him to jump off the platform so they dont screw anything up and procede to 7man it. Heck, our ninja DCed last week when we pulled chadernook and we got it to 1% and we are by no means elite class raiders and nearly 7manned it on the fly with an additional death. Most stuff in this game can be 7 manned unless there is a specific mechanic that cannot be survived without all 8. In those cases or in content as hard as ultimate the only option is to give them your account info, they log in, play you, you pay them.

Yes, to buy ultimate or similar difficulty wins you have to give up your account security and pay a boatload of money (gil or IRL). I cant fathom why anyone would do that. The money i can understand as money's value is completely relative to how much you actually have, but risking your account? No thx.
