From theJanta's in the Janta Stronghold Its pretty rare, I think the normal drop rate is 1-2 sets per clearance of the cave.

These are very nice for comp segments, since they add to the base without increasing encumbrance, and don't move any of the resists to special protection. It's the only segment enhancer in the game that fits those criteria.

I try to pay around 10K a piece for them, but only if they're in sets of three or more.

What Caswell says, but I buy all Janta hides. People need good gloves too.

Oh, I know. I usually getsingles thrown in with larger groups. Yesterday I bought two sets of four off of someone with a single thrown in. It's somewhat unclassy (IMHO) to pick over someone's wares when they're offered to you, take the good stuff, and leave them with the scraps.

ask on the AS page.

3 or 4% are bazzar fodder (ie under 6k each)

The higer they go the more people will pay.

I beg to differ. A 3%Janta Hidewill add to the base of the final piece of armor with no downside. As long as you have enough pieces and don't mind handcrafting Janta Hides are wonderful enhancements. I have a complete suit on display made from Janta Hides and the lowest base unsliced is 74%. Less that a 25% slice away from 90% protection. How does that make Janta Hide a "bazaar item"? I fell that Janta Hide and really really good Nightsister Layers (5% and above) are the best loot items available for Armorsmiths with great Nightsister Shards being in 3rd place. Regards.

every server economy is different, and every item has a different value depending on what someone is willing to pay.

on wanderhome, a suit of 80% energy 80% kinetic 80% electric 69% base sells for 400-500k

i buy janta hides based on the # of identicals and the %.

eg. 3x 3% janta hides i'll pay 3k each for. 5x 3% jh's i'll pay 5k each for.

3x 5% jh's i'll pay 15k each for. 5x 5% jh's i'll pay 20k each for.
