You Got Me

Yes they can be sold on the market boards, I saw some up yesterday.

Oh really? I had no idea you had to have a lvl 50 craft to purchase them from the NPC. To be honest, getting at least 1 lvl 50 craft is so easy these days (especially if you use the new Ixali quests to lvl) it shouldn't be a problem. Regardless though, the markup on these items is insane and I can't believe people pay it.

Yeah, you can't even access them unless you complete two quests, both of which you to be a level 50 crafter.

Guess, I'll be asking FC members to help me, since I won't be ripped off by the MB prices.

Sorry but nobody scammed you & nobody was dupped. Anything is worth the price people are willing to pay for it. Anything bought from the market board is done so out of convenience... or you don't have the class, level or skill to craft, gather or otherwise acquire whatever it is you're buying. Caveat emptor.

No its just crappy act of taking advantage of a players lack of knowledge. Also I had no idea that an NPC in Uldal was selling it. SE did not fully explain where to purchase the set, SE did however explain where and who was selling the Invisible Jewelry in Mor Dhona . I thought it was a craft only item, I wasn't doing it out of convenience, I thought I was getting a good deal at something new.

But lesson learned in Buyer beware. It was my fault for not checking before I buy. The system is working as intended, Its just sad.

Isn't the invisible jewelry a craft only item?

No its just crappy act of taking advantage of a players lack of knowledge. ....

Here is a tip applicable to real life too. Don't buy if you don't know about it. Do your homework, do your research, then go get the item, be it a car, smartphones, or items in game. But people get lazy and get fooled just like the idiot that line up to get gold colored iPhoneys. "A fool and his money soon par" is how that saying goes right?

Whether is ethical or moral to take advantage of others lack of knowledge, that is a much more difficult discussion. Are we upset about the deception plays that win games, or wars? Was it ethical that Allied forces cracked the Warchmact engima code and used it to plant false information and used it to great advantage for D-Day? Then again I'd like to hope players in game should be nicer to each other, and wouldn't look to gauge each other, 2x pricing on some vanity item is really small fry. Consider people selling T6-T9 carrries for 60mil, that is really taking advantage of other player's lack of knowledge and sometimes that knowledge is not even about the fight itself but knowledge about networking and connections with other players to make said runs possible.

Knowledge is Power yo! Do some research and gain that knowledge as well and you'll be the better for it!

Didn't people know if you paid more for it then it is better? Just like overpaying for those gold color iPhoneys.

That's why... always look stuff up before making purchases on the Market Boards. You'd be surprised at all the stuff that can be bought from NPC's at a quarter of the Market Board price.
