Meanwhile some level 9 blaster is currently delving into MIDS and dreaming of the build they’ve always wanted but couldn’t afford. Let that thought warm your heart in your cold, ebil chest. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sovera Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 You remind me of the bonanza that was having a bunch of my converters selling for 8.5 mill each. 1 1 - Simple guide for newcomers. - Money making included among other things. - Tanker Fire Armor: the Turtle, the Allrounder, the Dragon, and compilation of Fire Armor builds. - Tanker Stone Armor: beginner friendly (near) immortal Tanker for leveling/end-game and Stone Armor framework. - Brute Rad/Stone and compilation of Brute Stone Armor builds.

Eclipse. Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 (edited) I know this pain. I ordered 2 at that price (was getting the whole set), then wondered why I couldn't buy the next one before I realized what had happened. I took a break for the rest of the night.

ImpousVileTerror Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Someone, somewhere out there, is probably feeling like a million bucks! Or, more like 720 million, come to think of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I burned 1.6Billion on 2 ATOs T-T If those were mine and you made that mistake, I would refund you influence for anything past their market value. Unfortunately, I don’t tend to sell ATOs, since I use gathering them for my next character choice.😂 Playing CoX is it’s own reward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Six-Six Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 to avoid this, I usually "deposit" my inf in stashes of 100m in the email. So at any given time, my toons will have at the most only 100m working fund. Not a complete solution (yes, I too have entered the additional zero more than once) but it keeps losses down a bit. 😃 My Toons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saikochoro Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Worst I did was buy a defense unique for 100m instead of 10m. This was for my very first set IO build and was before I started doing the converter routine to make money. It wiped me out completely. It was pretty crushing. But it turned me on to converters because I needed a way to make back my influence to fund my first set IO build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgefund Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 I didn't even adopt the standard of ending all bids with something other than a 0 to avoid overbidding, but I do believe it's helped mitigate against this. Ending a bid with my "signature" amount makes me more mindful of the commas involved and has definitely made me aware of times I got carried away with button pushing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
