I only wish they had a class/race census like SE did for FFXI.

Runecloth is the most auctioned item... Why?

Heavy runecloth bandages. Every raider needs 'em. Every pvper does too.


edit: just a guess.

Well, runecloth is obviously for tailoring and bandages (though for PvP I just prefer to buy those from the PvP merchant). But I doubt that's the reason it is such a high seller.

My guess is it's because of so many people that want faction for cross-race mounts.

I like how Drek'Thar is the most dangerous mob in the game every day, he owns many-a-nub with his cleaves and sweeping strikes I guess lawl.

i'd say it's because of the mount reputation grinds. you need to turn in several thousand runecloth to get exalted with another faction.

Having a total bias against Alliance AV, I'd like to point out what NPCs have killed the most people. AF AV NPC Bowmen are on the front page, but horde bowmen are not...

Also, silly little alliance trying to kill Drek'Thar by themselves.

So there are 5,041,093 pieces of Runecloth dropped in a day, or 252,054 stacks. In the same day 90,726 are sold. That is a crap ton of Runecloth that is consumed everyday. With that kind of market pressure I'm suprised the price isn't higher than it is.

All the Drek'thar numbers show me is that the positioning of the Horde "Bosses" make them twice as hard to pull as the Alliance Marshal. Obviously Drek wipes the alliance more than Van.

I read that differently, in that either the horde always got slowed at the bridge, or that the horde had better player defenders in the room with Drek. I suppose it depends on which BG enthusiast you talk to.

Edit: It could also be that the alliance (which tends to be less organized) made bad Drek pulls which wiped the O team out.

About 1/3 of runecloth is sold so I can say that supply is far more than the demand, actually that's why the prices drop on some servers instead. As for my server (TVC EU) I can find runecloth stacks for 1.2g buyout on some days.

Heavy runecloth bandage is also needed for a CC Logistics quest and I hate it :( Thought it's one of the easiest logistics quest so can't complain much..

Talking about my battlegroup, in 80% of AVs I played in, Horde didn't bother with towers much, they just rushed the SP GY. On the other hand I usually head to horde towers first and kill the bowmen (yes I'm a holy/disc priest but they're just mobs) they don't respawn, I fear the lieutenant and cap the flag and *shrugs* horde may recap it but at least that leaves a clear passage to the rest of Ally raid. So it's about general attitude of players, or I find it more fair than blaming everything on exploits.

I miss old AVs.. It's more PvE now..

Drek is harder to pull than Van simply because of the placement of the Warmasters. With the warmasters mid room it is much easier to pull the whole room instead of just half of the room (in Van's case).

Obviously bad pulls can attribute to some of this, but can you link twice the number of deaths to it?

I'm yet to see a good pull in AV.

Me: Anyone who actually knows how to pull warmasters, go and pull and DO NOT overpull.
Random person: FFS who pulled all the warmasters?!?!

It happened so many times I can't count it anymore... Everytime someone goes and pulls all warmasters, and we always have 2 or more warmasters randomly charging people around, untanked.

I've always played alliance characters but somehow I do believe that Horde is more experienced/mature when it comes to pvp. Or that's because I don't have any idea about the Horde side.


EDIT: Spelling

The Stormpike bowmen have many more kills then the Horde bowmen because of the design of the bases IMO. For Horde, we get pounded trying to get across the bridge with the commanders and defending Ally...for ally they can simply run right through our base with barely being hit.

Just my 2 cents

Every one of the stats seems to be heavily skewed by the lowbie zones.

It might be more interesting to read if they broke it up:

0-30

30-60

But it’s still kind of fun to flip through. I wonder if people will crash any of those markets when they read that and get the idea "I could make big $_$" if I sold that.... Of course the cloth market is about unbreakable to some extent being so consumable.

My assumption is that of the stuff that isn't sold is consumed. So you have 2/3rds of all Runecloth that is dropped being consumed (7 day numbers will be better for this study). I think the price drops on runecloth are more of a reality of space issues then on demand. But I could be wrong. I also haven't really thought through the gathering patterns of Runecloth and the relative ease/difficulty of obtaining it.. Perhaps people just farm their own runecloth and skip the AH.

I'll be curious to see long-term trends for it honestly. This was AV weekend and the thread a while back leaps to mind; the one from our esteemed admin about how much he hates AV weekend and the whole theory/argument as to why it was so miserable.

You're probably right, but that was my gut reaction. Yay for long-term trend analysis. It's the same thing with Ony. It was interesting to see how some bosses who were in the top 10 disappear altogether on some nights.

Yeah that probably has something to do with reset times and such too in the case of Ony and other Raid bosses.

As far as the AV stats, my guess would be Drek kills twice as many because Alliance actually engages him twice as much as Horde does Vanndar.

Can really attribute the numbers to bad pulls, Drek doesn't wander far from his room and wouldn't kill that many.
