HOLY ****!

  Got a teardrop on my second dragon run!
  
  And who said just because I'm doing the miscellaneous repairing, reviving, and Holy Water refilling - that I'm useless!
  
  :lol:
  
  I'm so happy right now! ... [S]Now what is it used for?[/S]
  
  Now I just looked back at Vindictus and got spammed offers by like 5+ people :T_T:
  
  I'm NOT SELLING IT! At least not yet ... :chin:

  Thanks but I'm only level 44.
  
  I probably will sell it since level 70 is way to far away. Is 350m a good price? >.<

  Ah the joys of random RNGs.
  
  You could potentially keep it hanging around so you have a carrot to keep you going until Lv. 70. You'll have plenty of time to save up for a good armor set regardless.
  
  And now for me to go get nothing from all of my runs~

  I had originally thought that.
  But the price will probably go down by then? I think selling it now would benefit me greatly D:
  
  Also, Best of luck in your runs T_T

  I'd suggest keeping it. That sword is a true diamond...

  Well, it'd be a Staff first of all.
  
  Secondly, from prior experience. Price will not deflate at any reasonable pace, at all.
  
  This is due to a large number of reasons.
  
  1. The 3 runs in 7 days versus the 7 runs in 7 day format. Less supply.
  2. There has been a huge pile up of 70s due to the long time we've had it as the cap. More demand.
  3. It's the undeniable best set. More demand.
  4. Dragon is still a pain to run anyways, so some people can't deal with it. Less supply.
  5. If anything, botting will cause gold to inflate further. Meaning that the prices will rise rather than fall.
  
  And a few other things. Glas Pants were still 20m (from 35m ~Week 1) about half a year after their release. It wasn't until exploits came along that the price dropped to 9m.

  Well, it's against forum rules to post certain things, so I can't say much, but there's a way to exploit the new raids, at least from what I've gotten. Not many people are aware of it yet though, and the method is too risky.

  Hmmm ... I wish I would have thought about that way. However, I'm a very causal and slow leveler in Vindictus.
  
  In the end, I decided to sell it. Got a good amount of money for it too! :XD:
  
  I just hope I am able to acquire another one by the time I hit level 70. The Dragon battle is so much fun, even though I can't do much in the way of damage ...

  Haha, don't worry! I was rebuilding barracks, filling pools and ballista-ing throughout my whole dragon run and I still got 6th :'3

  Raining on your parade, but don't count on it.
  
  I've gotten about a grand total of 5 Glas Pants and 3 Shiny Stones or so in quite a few months of spamming those. Teardrops are likely around that droprate, but who knows. Getting rich in this game is 90% luck.
  
  And my luck is terrible. I end up doing these raids solely to see how much damage I can get while trying not to die.
  
  Alternate extremely limited (and thus inaccurate) calculation. I've seen 3 Tears drop in 12 runs. Assuming 22 people per run, that's about 264 runs worth of chances. 3/264 is about 1%.

  Yeah. And it's all important stuff!

  You know ... I have notoriously bad luck when it comes to games. So, I was really surprised when I saw the teardrop in my inventory!
  
  But, it's all RNG ... One can only hope :XD:

  they will drop to 50m eventually, selling it right now is a good idea.

  This was the best decision. The price will not go up, only down, so the worst that can happen is it won't move and you'll break even if you want to buy a new one. However, even if you are to break even, it is a net profit if you use your money wisely as it takes money to make money, and merching even on a small, simple scale is great money for the minimal time invested.
  
  However, next time I'd recommend waiting a few days before selling something like this. It might pull an extra 50-100m <.< But there are many ways to make money now that you have it. Use your creativity~
