STOP BUYING SNIPER RINGS NOOBS!Follow

Items are worth whatever someone is willing to pay.

Haahaaa Its the jerrys who are raising the price they bot Stroper Chyme 24/7 and raise the prices on the Archer Rings. Then the leather crafters have to charge more for Snipper rings because they need a profit.

Edited: I beilive this is why they have been raising in price.

If the price of Archer's Rings has gone up, then the price of Sniper's Rings is going to go up, plain and simple. And, considering that the Sniper's Rings are a lvl 40 item, I'm sure it's not noobs that are purchasing them.

Pissed off enough about it? Then go farm Stroper Chyme.

Oh, and good luck doing that, since the gilfarmers probably camp it like nobody's business.

Damnit, Byaina, you jumped right on it before I could post. :P

So, what you're saying is "Stop buying them so that I can buy them!" ?

Yeah. We'll get right on that.

Stop being a gimp without Sniper's Rings, Noob.

Not for long.

This reminds me of my one experience with the infamous Lizy. I was in a pt I'd created in the Valkurm dunes, and needed a 6th member. Lacking a puller, I grabbed a lvl 15 thf, Lizy.

Now I will give Lizy credit in that s/he was very quick on the pull, and had lots of chains. In fact as much as I hate to admit it, s/he opened a door in my strategic thinking which accomodated for chain pulling. And pt's I've run have been far better for it.

The problem was, Lizy paid very little heed to how well medded the mages were, and managed to pull something before we were ready. I think it was a Leecher, but I don't remember clearly

Now, had we been able to pull off any renkei's, we would probably have survived this fight. But the problem was, Lizy was terrible at performing ws on time. In fact most of the time, regardless of how obvious others' ws macro's made it that they were setting up for skillchain, lizy generally never noticed it was his/her turn, and then ******* at us at the end of the battle.

At the end of the fight, in which myself and two other ppl died (not Lizy, as I recall), Lizy called us all noobs for "messing up skillchain" (again, it was no one but him/herself who was botching them), ditched our pt, and began shouting that s/he was looking for a pt that didn't suck.

My theory? Lizy is in fact on crack.

OOT, I know, but I thought it was worth mentioning. ^^

Ouch Theophany...that really hurt. Just...ouch.

Well, now I'm not leveling again until I get 1 million gil for 2 Sniper's Rings for sure. ~.^

What's the difference between the OP and a brain-dead troll? The troll could spell. I mean, really, come on. All the points I want to make are summarized in the first reply.

Heh. Didn't mean you specifically. If you can hit without Snipers, then you're fine; it's just that most DRKs I've partied with can't hit the broad side of a barn. ; ;

I would say these are two examples that might represent a different situation. These are very good pieces of equipment, but a Vermy or Haub costs many times more than the sniper rings that originally started this thread. I'm not sure those two are really valid comparisons.

While I will agree that the Vermillion Cloak is a good piece of armor, I must admit it's hardly the ultimate mage armor, and, truthfully, relatively useless for RDM. Errant is infinitely better in every way, and costs a third of the price for the entire set.


What does Vermillion Cloak boast? Refresh effect? Big whoop. You know how much the added mp refresh gives? 1 mp per click. Yippy skip, I'm really gonna shell out 3 and a half mil so I can have one more mp per click.


Not to mention with the cloak equipped, I lose my enfeebling and elemental boosts up from my AF, and virtually negate a very needed fast cast effect.

To each his own, I suppose, though.
