  • Innovative Bolts and Gears

    I have not been thinking about purchasing any of these, but after hearing from a couple combine customers how they had to spend a lot of money for these parts, I decided to take a look and see if any were selling in the Bazaar.

    I saw 3 Innovative Gears for....

    *drumroll*

    3000pp EACH!

    OMG! I was rather shocked! Is this normal pricing?

    300-800pp a peice on the Tribunal is quite common. When bows still sell for 8k+, it's not suprising that the parts and pieces will be at a higher price as well. I still sell cams whenever I have extra at 2k a piece as well.

      Gears are around 1k
      nuts and bolts I've seen from 300 plat up to near 1k as well. Even the foraged clockwork grease is in the baz for 300 plat or so each sometimes. A little excessive I agree.

        I bought 3 Innovative Gears on Vazaelle for 300pp each. But I have seen them as high as 2kpp each - I just refuse to pay that. I have a few friends who have also given me some gears they got while hunting in PoI. Myself, I always seem to end up with Bolts - never seem to find the gears :?

        Point is - if people are willing to pay thousands to buy the gears and bolts, then that is where the price will stay. Personally, I don't think they are that hard to come by and I won't pay much more than a few hundred plat.

        My question is - what do you folks pay for Nightmare Silk? I've yet to get in a group that could handle Creepers, so I've not farmed it for myself. Most times when I see silk for sale in the bazaar it's for 1kpp or more. The other night I saw someone selling it for 150pp each (6 pieces) and I gobbled it up as fast as I could! Silk is definitely the bottleneck for me.

            Gears and bolts are ten times the bottleneck that silks are. Just get into a dock group in PoN and you will have silks in no time. Getting a group in PoI is much harder because it's not really a pickup-group zone, and then people will be loot-rolling on the innovative stuff.

              On The Rathe, bolts and gears going from 500-800 plat each, cams from 1-3k. Silks around 200, and strings 500. Bow staves from 25-500p but easy to find on venders. I got lucky last night found one gear on a vender for 27p.

                When I've needed gears/bolts the going rate seems to be 300 each usually. Someone charging 1k+ for a single part of this bow when the price has dropped to ~6k seems ridiculous to me.

                    Innovative Bolts and Gears

                    Cheapest i've seen bolts and gears on Innoruuk is 50pp each. needless to say i bought em up quick. Most expensive is 450pp each. Cams go for between 800pp- 1kpp.

                    I saw someone selling 12 silks for 50pp each and bought them up too. But i've seen them since then for 1kpp each. I guess you just have to be lucky and spot em being sold by people who dont know what they're for.

                      Yet another representation of how skewed 7th Hammer's economy is :roll:

                      I even saw someone trying to sell the cams for 4k each and stating that a cam was a third of the parts you need for a bow, and that you'd get a bow for less than half the going rate. /sigh

                        Prices on Quellious fluctuate quite a bit. Anywhere from 150pp each to 1k each.
                        I've gotten lucky a few times. Found grease for 2pp each last night, bought all 5. Got 20 for 15pp each last week.
                        I shouted I wanted to buy IC bolts and gears on PoTy and a ranger had 12 bolts, 7 gears, 6 silks, 4 staves and 10 jars of grease in bank. I asked if he was a fletcher and he said "NO" :roll: So I offered to give him a bow for all the parts and he went for it. I was a very happy camper

                        Right now I am sitting on 35 IC Bolts, 26 IC Gears and 30 jars of grease just waiting for one of the Tinkers list on this website to be online at the same time as myself I also have 36 silks and 5 strings but no staves as they take up valuable space and are cheap from vendors

                        My guild loves me as I hand these out free of charge to all the mains. Got a dozen more to equip then I can start selling the extra bows. I have spent almost 20k on parts and haven't made a single copper yet.
                        I'm now 8 for 14 combines at 205 and a geerlok.

                          Phhh, after our guild craftsfolk refused to accept any more of the grease I just put the grease on my trader for 5pp. Lol now I know why I sold 3 stacks in the time it took to get a coke from the fridge /grin.

                          P.S. Don't think I'll raise the price though. After all it's a quite common forage. 8)

                            On Veeshan, the market seems flooded with gears and bolts. I price what I find on vendor mining expeditions at about 200-300 each, depending on the daily competition, and they still don't sell as fast as I'd like.
