  Raises hand. I spamm enemy behind and lingering darkness for levels. So page 2 should be ok for me (200 runs o.o). Page 1 is troublesome.

  Problem is with the strategy of buying when supply is high is that: Who in the world spams Enemy Behind Hard and Provocation or Taillteann Defensive Battle ADV/Hard?
  
  I don't see anyone doing that before, and I don't believe that since more people are doing these missions, supply will be high enough to satisfy the market today or in the road ahead. The chances of getting both those pages are super low and the market demand for both pages keeps on rising up.
  
  You'll likely never see these pages for a cheap price, and I mean 5 mill cheap.

  
  People did not like to spam provocation before spark came out over here.
  
  Which means things are likely to change. Offering a good price does tempt people to run it.

  I spam Enemy Behind Hardmode since it is a short shadow mission, and the rewards are pretty nice. I am pretty sure that there are other people spamming this mission as well even though it may not be as popular as other shadow missions. It is also easily soloable as well.
  
  The problem with page 1 is Provocation is not easily soloable as Enemy Behind Hardmode, nor can you enter it alone.

  True, people may be tempted to run these Shadow Missions now, but even if you get people to run these Shadow Missions, the chances of you finding it per run is still 0.4% for running ADV Provocation Taill Defense Battle, 2% for Hard Mode of those missions and 0.86% per Enemy Behind Hard Mode run. You may increase the chances of finding these pages if you have more people thus increasing the supply, but I kinda doubt more people running these missions will increase supply and lower prices.

  3 is the most common. will probably turn out to be a junk page.

  It will become cheaper, but not so soon. Things like that are expensive when they first come out.
  
  Spark 1 was like 8-10 million here when it first came out and now it's like dropped to the 2-5 million range. I don't really know the current price but it should still be around these.
  
  3 people running provocation makes it 1.2% for adv mode and 6% for hard mode. You just need to spam more for one page and find the right people to help you.

  I don't get what makes spark so good besides using it with Broniac. Its damage per hit doesnt look that great, so low ranks wont be able to kill much, And wiki says it doesnt crit. So i dont get it why its so good.

  I think it is thrash at lower ranks.
  I'd rather use something else before I use shock/spark nowadays.
  
  The only thing about it is the perceived invincibility but I found it out to be untrue. It only knockbacks, it doesn't give invincibility the way windmill does. No knockback = you're dead.

  Because it stuns everything around you indefinitely, essentially giving you godmode?
  Go watch some Doppleganger videos and you'll see how easy that fight becomes when the boss -who normally can't be stunned or knocked back by any skill, only frozen- is paralyzed for the entire duration.

  So in the end its not really worth it to rank it first think right? Because as i see it now, maybe Rank 5+ is useable in combat, but it wont compare to heat buster in g12, am i right?

  The one thing is that you have to make sure you protect yourself once the skill slows down.
  Anything else not affected by knockback can come in and hit you once the skill is about to vanish.
