I have to admit I played an entire TF (Citadel) with an grav/kin alt yesterday and only at the end did I realize the build was almost completely unslotted! Only ATOs and not all of those. But it was a very solid team so I didn't even notice!
-
Could be, but I have to admit I've never seen it before.
-
I was shocked this morning to put a bunch of common salvage on the market for 5 inf only to find it not all selling immediately. Then, lo and behold I look and see there are 0 bidders. Kudos to whoever filled all bid for common salvage! That's quite a feat!
-
Is there any way to create these via merits or converters?
-
Are you referring to Tailor sessions here? I've probably opened over ten thousand of these things and don't remember costume tokens (but if they don't show in Character items there's every chance I overlooked them).
-
My ATOs at 8 mil (well, a bit under) are still selling well. You might consider a higher selling price. Then again, at the price you have you still have a profit and they go quickly.

Right! It's something both profitable and different. Do it long enough and you'll figure out ways to streamline the process and reduce the number of clicks (reduce, not eliminate). Also, you'll find that those "shitty temp powers" are actually nice to have. I love the defense amplifier, and Experienced, but they are all good. Respecs and tailor sessions, on the other hand, really are shitty. The inspirations are underrated but great. Remember you can get them any time anywhere from character items (may be a very few exceptions, but not many). Popping a bunch of team enhancements to damage on a Hami raid, or team break frees on an ITF can make a big difference. It's kind of like how the natural gas oil wells give off used to be thought of as the waste, but actually has a lot of value in and of itself (not enough value to drill the well in the first place, but worth using).

Great! We need all the ATOs in supply we can get! With 100 you should end up with about 110 to 120 ATOs. Remember, turn those reward merits into Enhancement Converters and brain sotrms into rare salvage and sell them all for a nice profit. Oh, and beware of carpal tunnel...

The Great Rare Salvage Sale - 6:30 Eastern - Sharp!
Troyusrex replied to Troyusrex's topic in The Market
Well, getting a very liquid commodity to sell out would be a rare and notable achievement! Certainly worth a few billion. The problem, of course, is that smart ebil marketers know this so they are prone to put in lots of low bids on certain items so they can flip and make a nice profit. -
Man, this game has changed from what I remember

As someone with a very potent blaster I deeply appreciate tanks with taunt. Punch-voke just doesn't cut it and I'm often finding myself with AV aggro because the tank or brute can't keep it. -
Those are the keys to the kingdom. Anyone can just grab them and use them, but few do.

Given that converters might be a better target. -
I call that "pound wise and penny foolish" and I strongly endorse that thinking!

There's an interesting thread in General Discussions where people are going to the Atlas kiosk and showing the number of villains killed. Now, we all know that good sales requires a lot of alts, so this is a bit harder. But most of us have one or two primaries. Here are my two. I have to admit, I thought the numbers would be a LOT higher given how many millions of clicks and buckets of influence have been involved. j

I'm in as long as the number of outstanding bids stays below 20K. The problem with advertising something like this is that ebil marketers might flood the market with ultra low bids... -
Alright so it's a little embarassing

An early Dr. Graves mission red side. Maybe level 5ish..

While pretty fun solo, I'm finding Assassin's strike useless in teams. The wind up is so long, and so easily interrupted, as to be next to pointless. Am I missing something? Or is this just not something that works well in teams?

Arbiter Sands. Ms Liberty Task Force. "I go to Grandville for some decent coffee and this is what happens?" Classic!

Sorry, I'm sure I've contributed to this. As other posters have mentioned, I'm not selling at exactly 8m or 10m, but a bit below. If you are at 8m you won't sell yours until every one of mine of that type is sold as my offer price is lower (albeit not much).

Here are the sales numbers for the first three days. Unsurprisingly, sales were strongest on the weekend and have slacked off markedly since then. There was a large brute run Sunday. About 2/3rds of my inventory is now sold. My cash levels are at about 8.25 billion, so I'm almost back to even (and that's after dumping 34K+ converters (including merits changes to converters) plus the rare salvage on the market at 5 inf. # Sold by Day Day 1 (Sat-Sun) Day 2 (Sun-Mon) Day 3 (Mon-Tue) Brute 13 87 90 Stalker 61 81 81 Corruptor 54 61 68 Kheldian 42 66 68 Tanker 45 62 66 Mastermind 34 49 55 Controller 27 46 54 Defender 23 42 53 Scrapper 18 34 50 Blaster 24 26 46 Dominator 20 33 46 Sentinel 20 37 38 SoA 14 31 37 Total 395 655 752

I consider super packs anything but simple to profit from and a fair amount of work to do so. If I wanted to profit simply, I'd keep watch of a commodity for a week (especially over the weekend), maybe something like rare salvage or catalysts. I'd get a sense for the highs and lows, but in a ton of bids just over the lows and then sell them at the highs.

As @Bionic_Flea would say:

At 1 billion that’s 100 packs. You should get more than 110 ATOs from it. If you sell those for 8 million each (10 for brute and blaster), convert and sell merits and brain storms plus sell everything else you should make a profit. If you use the converters to make more popular ATOs your profit will be even better. If you catalyze some ATOs it might be even better. My return is usually about 23%, but that’s with no converting or catalysing. just know, it’s a lot of clicks.
