I LOVE Vendordiving.

[Fox the Clever]

Since the servers have been reset a couple of times recently, I've been checking out the vendors to see what I could find. I've dug up sunshard dust, sunshard pebbles, various quality skins and hides, crystallized sulfur, and blue diamonds - but nothing prepared me for what I found today.

While running around with an alternate character looking for various pages for enchanter spell research, I found eleven mistletoe cutting sickles on one of the dwarven smithing merchants in the Plane of Knowledge. At just a hair over 10 platinum pieces each, I thought that was an extremely lucky find. Then, while checking out the merchants next to the "annoying music" inn, I found a merchant with 197 of those sickles on her person.

It's sure nice to have a maximum tribute score!

I seems to have a competition in the guild lobby. I found a blue diamond but just before I clicked buy, it poofed. Only other player near the vendor was a dark elf. Going to have to watch for that one. He did miss 3 crushed diamond dust 3 seconds earlier though =)

Had to resurrect this for....

Two, yes TWO, shadowmane pelts from a PoK vendor on Saturday..... I about fainted right there.

20 Great Reptile hides, and 5 tailoring skill ups later

I still wonder where someone could get 20 of these hides from

[Wyvernwill]

Veeshan's Peak.

[Gaell Stormracer]

Correct - 63% drop rate on the "a frenzied racnor".

[Ozadar]

Veeshan's Peak. Sighhhh. Still have my old VP key. Never been able to upgrade it to the new key after they revamped it.

One thing I love about this game is seeing new zones.

Unusual vendor diving... on a buyer. Found someone who was offering 25pp for celestial essence. all 999 of them.

I ran my monk to grab 1000 scent of marr and 333 concentrated solvent and got busy for the next 30 minutes clicking away then sold all of it to the buyer. I couldn't sell the last 5 stacks as the buyer was full.

For investment of under 2k, I walked away with over 22kpp and 5 stacks of unsold CE.

Oh yeah found 4 blue diamond, 2 shattered ukun and 3 quality feran hides on a bazaar vendor. Shattered ukun and quality feran are used in tier 2 OoW and often sells for 5k to 10k

34 sunshard ores yesterday from one vendor made my night!

[Maevenniia]

hmm, in the past week I've found

6 Bazu Blood
1 Feran Blood
9-10 Blue Diamonds
2 Shimmering Ukun Hides
33 Crushed Diamond Dust (on one vendor)
1 Dust of Discord
& various useful bits of this n that....

Last night, 5 storm volaas hairs on vendor for 1p5g apiece. Needless to say my lil drakkin necro is thrilled with the find.

[Unapuma]

Great day for me! Bazaar crashed yesterday so merchant was reset. Just a while ago I checked the vendor and in addition to BD's and a few tier 2 OoW quest item that are worth a lot, I had a jaw dropping surprise when I found a pyrilen flame on merchant Tekrama.

Checking the last 3 merchants by PoK zone, my jaw went through the floor! ANOTHER PYRILEN FLAME!!!!



That is easily over 10kpp worth that I got for measly 26pp of investiment.

EDIT: one zero too many

[Aetemius]

Wow! 50k per flame on your server? I can't unload the 5 I have for 15k each.

[Unapuma]

Er 1 zero too many >_< 10k easy not 100k. They normally go 8-15k each but they sell like molasses at higher price range. I usually sell cheaper than other guy and someone named Nebuwares will probably buy one or both from me to make bazu armors. He bought a lot from my trader since I'm usually cheap.

[Aetemius]

I forgot you were on my server! Nebuwares person buys a lotta junk from me as well. I usually price my stuff to move since I never have enough room.
