Instead of chastising you for posting this here, I'm just going to say wow. That nightsister lance is very, very nice. Not worth 20mil, but a sweet lance none the less.

A question though. You advertised the LVA as 'for all you jedi' and then go on to list the dmg stats. If a jedi buys this, don't the stats become moot?

20million! Haha! I'm getting tired of people overcharging these polearms they loot, even when they are below player-made quality. That one is not, but it's not worth anywhere near even5 million.

Antares, don't be upset with the people overcharging for these lances. Be upset with the fools paying for them.

Everyday on my galaxy trade board, I see one more idiot buying a POS nightsister lance for some god awful price. Its idiots like this that keep the sellers prices up.

I think people are starting to get the hint, slowly but surely. I've seen many many attempts to sell polearms with stats below player-made for outrageous prices simply drop off the trade forums without a post, and I've been seeing more reasonable prices lately, at least on Kauri.

Unfortunately, I am on the Ahazi server. Otherwise known as the'thnx to sploiters there is billions and billions of dollars in our economy so we pay outrageous prices for everything' server.

A simple guy like me with no source of income, other than missions, just can't afford 1-5 mil a pop for a new weapon.

Fortunately, Kauri seems to have avoided much of the credit duping, prices are much more reasonable than many other servers. I was on bloodfin messing around with another character and saw some composite armor for sale 150-300k per piece when I had just paid 60-80k per piece for better stats on Kauri.

Just for a price check, on Starsider the most expensive Pike on the server went for 30 million in auction. 875 Poison that lasted for 10 minutes and had 98% potency, 18000 uses. It also was a NS lance and had +7 range mods with good speed. My mind fire pike was about 15 million, and those are the most expensive sold to date by far. I think most 200-300 mind poison lances go from 500k - 3 mil depending on the other stats on the DoT.

Legwand it looks to me like you are pure combat, sources of income for you:

Combat: You must follow the loot whores luke:

Dath sisters obviously

Talus aakuan items and skill tapes

Lok and Yavin RIS pieces.

Or drops some of the secondaries and pick up novice artisan, with this and brandy you can do mining.

Either of those options will over time be better than mission grinding.

Guys I am not here to "rip" others off. I have 11k to my name at the moment and have been saving up all the best items I could get my hands on. Plain and simple if I didnt need creds to buy pearls and such I wouldnt sell these items. The 1.2 lance is worth a min of 15mil. The one with +25 TN and +25 Kd is worth 8 mil to a Jedi.

Someone will want these, and their purchase will help me to get only about 3-5 pearls. You are right about the system, once being a Jedi I disagree with how Jedi are affected so greatly by items like pearls, that is controlled mainly by the mainstream who does not have a Jedi.

Trading for pearls is my intent. There is no other, so labeling it as greed just because another who has nothing else to just try to get a handful of pearls that want even get them to padawan isnt right imo.

We all have to make ends meet one way or the other. I am currently doing all the artisan profs now to turn a buck.

Thanks for your time.

If you can sell it for 15mil, go for it, but it is not worth near 15mil. Believe us, we're the ones that use them.
