if you don't need the money then you mind as well stockpile them. True we don't know the future but most wouldagree its not gunna get easier to kill a krayt after the CU.

Personally I'm stockpiling. I can't forsee Krayts or NS becoming easier to kill after the CU, and if the change of only Giants and Ancients dropping pearls goes in like it was supposed to, then it'll only be that much harder and you won't see quality pearlsat all anymore.

I am trying to decide whether to sell the quality krayt pearls I loot or to wait until the CU. Right now there is no shortage of buyers, but after the CU I suspect that pearls will be much harder to get.


So, from a business perspective, should I sell the pearls I loot now or stockpile them for the CU? No one knows the future, but what is your best guess?

Defenently stockpile. It is very probable that the nerf will hit at the begining of may. That gives us jewelers a little over a month to get out houses bulging at the seams. My personal goal is to have 30 premiums, and a similar number of quality crystals or pearls. Right now I am a third of the way there . As long as I can resist the temptation to buy ADKs, I should be in really good shape come nerf time.

This is a question I have to ask myself too. If we wait too long to sell pearls (and crystals), their prices will decrease due to the increased supply. But everyone's right about the impending CU/R/B. The pearls/crystals may be many times more valuable then.

This is a huge question for me as well. For now, I am selling what I get. But my guild is considering stockpiling starting soon.

The only reason why it might *not* be smart to stockpile is if CREDITS also become harder to get after the CURB -- thus maybe the Jedi have less money to buy pearls with?

Or are the big customers already multi-millionaires?

Stock Pile your pearls lol you think there exspensive now? after CU the prices will rocket as it will take teams of peeps to take a Krayt down.


i loot around 8 pearls a buff session and since the boom ive topped my collection to over 150 prems Un-tuned and ive tuned about 20 more(i sell the quality) so after the CU ill have more then i need hopefully

hopefully the ADK will keep the price on pearls to a "normal" lvl and not like it was1.5 years ago when a parl sold for 6-8mill

I'd stockpile dedalus, but not until the current prices bottom out. Currently being able sell qualities at 500-800k consistently (especially how easy they are to obtain) really doesn't warrant stockpiling them now. As soon as prices start to lower start stockpiling. I have a sneaky suspicion krayt loot is going to be nerfed in the future. Too many nice tissues and pearls on the market.
