oh dear....
Jan. 17th, 2006 09:52 amWell yesterday I looked at the price of Ancient Magic, as I am intending to level up blm soon (after all, we all need more blm lol). Quake is currently running at 1.2 million, Flare 800k etc etc...
Now I know you could argue I don't NEED the spells, but I am one of those people who detests not having a spell. But honestly - 1.2 mill for a spell? The thing is I can see both sides of the coin. Quake is a drop from Kirin. Our ls fought Kirin for the first time this weekend (it was too late for me due to another ls being there first) and defeated him. The drops were pretty pathetic - shining cloth, quake and a crystal. From the ls point of view, I would want them to get as much money as possible from the sales. But as someone who will have to buy it soon - eep!
Still, I have found I can solo sapphire quadavs easily for Flood, though the drop rate is pathetic. I can do the same for Tornado with the yags (assuming I can get the starting one killed with no issues). The problem is going to be Flare and Quake. Flare drops from Million Eyes, Hakutaku and Dread Demons in Uleguarand Range or Castle Zvahl Baileys, whereas Quake drops from Centurio X-I in Quicksand Caves (which is heavily camped), and 2 orc NMs in Monastic Cavern. Oh well, where there is a will there is a way...
