I LOVE Vendordiving.

[Rissenn]

Todays find: 30 Gem studded chains a' 24pp each from a vendor.

[splunge]

Dont get too excited. Youll be finding a lot more.

[Bauhb]

There's quite a few in pok on my server - i couldnt find any more BD's for my last 3 skillup points hehe

[Rissenn]

Yep, the diamonds and Blue diamonds are being scooped up really really fast now. Used to be that you could find them all over the place, but now I am lucky if I can find 2-3 per day.

Hmm..maybe an idea could be to /feedback that raw diamonds+ gem cutter+ jar of acid could be used to create a regular Diamond?

found over 50 Gem-Studded chains on a merchant (someone skilling up JC) for ~25pp each. Since my Tailoring is only 200, this was a good find.

Given the lowered trivial of the robe, I'm gonna succeed MORE in making the Ceremonial Solstice Robes and that could have gotten expensive if I made the chains myself. At ~25pp per chain, I don't feel so bad, esp as I already had all sorts of silk swatches and Sacred Tunare silks already banked and was wondering if I should use them

Also found a couple of Soapstones in the past week or so, and few other goodies.

Running out of bank space again

Guess I need to do a Tailoring run to use up all those chains and silks, and make room for more vendor-diving finds !

Last night 3/27

Finished an LDON in South Ro and while the looter was selling I checked the Magus as I always do --- Get a load of this haul for under 100p.

1 Bazu Blood
3 Murkblood
*** 2 Metallic Drake Scales
*** 2 Metallic Liguids.


YEAH!

Saturday morning I died in Stillmoon because I couldn't find the exit and invis wore off in a bad place (as usual). So I decided to just summon my corpse to the Guild Lobby and rez myself (paladin). When I bought the summoning stone, I casually browsed the vendor's inventory. I found an ukun quill and an ashlock branch, 1 copper each. After that, I wasn't so upset about dying. I've already sold the branch for 20k.

Rez time vendor mining... takes on a whole new meaning.. Nakey.. not even a copper to my name.. I find...
2 nest drake eggs
Drake intestines
Drake Wing bones
and 36 Morning Dews
Just as I'm about to max out shadow tipped arrows

I'm bound in one of the Ldon Camps.. so I port to Everfrost Kill wooly mammoths sell the tusks for 10p make a quick 100p (keep mammoth meats) Zap back to the other magus and buy the goodies I was lucky enough to find.
and my rez comes through just moments later.. I was soo lucky.

[Draggar]

Again, the simplest of finds beings the most joy:

A stack and a half of HQ bear skins.

[splunge]

*sigh* No vendor diving in WoW makes splunge a sad rang.. er hunter.

[TheCraftyBard]

My problem when it comes to vendor farming is that I always worry that I'm missing tons of good stuff, considering how much time I spend doing it.

One Yaeth's looks the same as any other to me.

I'd ask for a list of commonly-found items, but I don't want to spoil it for the rest of you.

[Maevenniia]

Found a Discordant Scoriae yesterday morning...NPC sells this for 4s 1c

My trader sold it for 105K plat.

I had been a silly necro and actually paying people like 10-15p a piece for words so that I could get my research up.. then I read this post and decided to go diving. I think I've found my new favourite sport!

<3 diving

Well, if your server is anything like mine, you'll find @#$%-loads of words on the vendors in Twilight Sea... I just sell them to vendors while I'm farming shadows.
