Marine X Posted November 16, 2021 Posted November 16, 2021 While I am still in the Farming Phase of my pre-Christmas Ritual, I am starting to consider a few changes to my annual giveaway. Because of the clumsiness of the trade interface, and a lot of people not understanding why I am offering to trade, a lot decline to trade, so no gift. Thus I am thinking about just buying attuned enhancements that I can just Drag and Drop on Players. Trying to think of perhaps of a few popular varieties, like Blessing of the Zephyr ( Knock back Protection ) for level 10+ Luck of the Gambler ( Def +Global Recharge ) for level 25+. Any suggestions for additional ones to consider that would be desirable and in the 5 Million or less range would be appreciated. Also would enhancement Catalysts be a desirable gift?, usually 3 Million or so at the AH. 1 " When it's too tough for everyone else, it's just right for me..."

Ukase Posted November 16, 2021 Posted November 16, 2021 (edited) If you're going to give the lotg 7.5% recharge/def IO, may I suggest it be attuned? This way the defensive portion levels up as they play. Granted, it's a meager number either way, but every bit helps. In my own humble opinion, while not every build can make space for them, here are the mainstays that I try to incorporate in my builds: Kismet 6% Perf Shifter +end Miracle +recovery Numina +regen/recovery Panacea +HP/End Steadfast Protection 3% def/Resist Glad.

TheZag Posted November 16, 2021 Posted November 16, 2021 I type too slow, or maybe those guys above type too fast. Super packs are also an option but at twice your target price. You could consider super inspirations but even ultimates are usually less than those prices and people tend to have a full inspiration tray. 1

PS - the Reactive Defenses unique starts out at 3%, then as you lose health scales to 10%. As for @Marine X's initiative, I would suggest handing out attuned PerfShifts and/or Numina's/Miracles - just because, not everybody can slot a Kismet or UGuard, but ever'body got Health/Stamina. I may even be able to help you build stock, once I truck some reward merits around. 2 CEOs come and go, and one just went/The ingredients you got bake the cake you get
Marine X Posted November 16, 2021 Author Posted November 16, 2021 I will be primarily on Reunion ( Most of my Toons are there even though I'm in Ohio, USA ), and may do some on Everlasting and Excelsior. Just planning to do the 12 Days of Christmas Giveaway I did every year on Live but use Enhancements instead of Influence this time. People can always cash them in. 2 " When it's too tough for everyone else, it's just right for me..." ( Unless it's Raining, or Cold, or Really Dirty or there are Sappers, Man I hate those Guys...)

roleki Posted November 16, 2021 Posted November 16, 2021 Far out. I dump stuff on people at random all the time, sometimes just to get it out of my tray, other times for my own inscrutable purposes. It's amazing how many times I get tells "Why did you give me this? I can't use this!" Like, get mad that you have to sell something for free inf, why don't you? 1 CEOs come and go, and one just went/The ingredients you got bake the cake you get
Andreah Posted November 16, 2021 Posted November 16, 2021 Even people who won't use them can sell them for a nice bit. Great idea. 3

Um...you may not be aware of this - but pvp IOs are had for 2M, plus the cost of crafting & converting. Now, I can hear the rebuttals: "I don't enjoy that." or "There's not enough recipes" etc. This is just one recipe of 54 types of different pvp IOs. (9 sets, 6 each) If you place 5 bids for each one at 2M each, by the end of the day, you should have anywhere from 80 to 120 of them. Maybe more. When you craft level 10's, it only costs 3600 inf to craft, plus 600K for the salvage, at the most. 2.6M, sell for 8m, or give it away. Or, craft 3, sell one, give away 2 to cover the costs of making 3. I have literally made billions doing this, often a billion in a day. I know it's feasible. Edited November 16, 2021 by Ukase 1
PLVRIZR Posted November 16, 2021 Posted November 16, 2021 I'm aware, and have also made significant scratch...but it's a giveaway, so buying attuned versions seemed in line with what MarineX was asking.

It adds up! In my case, I unslot the existing attuned one I had already. Next, I put the new one in and catalyze it. Then, I sell the old one. One cat and one unslot used. Fortunately, unslotters are cheap, even when you need to use two.
JnEricsonx Posted November 16, 2021 Posted November 16, 2021 Where the hell are Catalysts 3 million? I sell mine for about 1.5 million.

But i know a few characters who buy/convert/flip/whatever on the PVP and they have a target sales range in the 8+ neighborhood. 1 1

I agree with @Snarky. Ticket price of a Glad+ averages around 8. You can get them significantly cheaper but you need to be patient. Edited November 17, 2021 by Sakai

Same case for the Panacea and the Shield Wall. But, I get your point. It would be tedious to craft/convert a ton of IOs. 1
