You're not. Avoid gachas like the plague, I do.

Yeah, I have had a bad history with gachas before(thousands spent in tinierme which shut down), which taught me to avoid them. XD So I only do the dye one if I have leftover NX and don't need anything else.
It seems kind of sad that at least two of my friends are kind of gacha addicts... I mean I remember bringing one friend to Mabinogi, and she was a newbie(only rebirthed like once) already addicted to the Vocaloid gacha and spending and spending in a game that she barely even will play(and yeah, she doesn't play anymore after about a week of starting). @_@

And then I remember in another game, I coincidentally ran into a friend there, and he was new to it... yet he was spending hundreds on their gacha. He never logged in a few days later.
What's weird is that he was claiming to be homeless, and later asking me to send him money... And right now, he's in a health issue and can't afford to get a check up.

Now you know why.

Yeah. Evil gachas exploit people who are susceptible... >.<
Most of the gacha-addicted people I know are really poor too. Another friend I had couldn't afford a bed(but now has one), and is really addicted to gachas.

Probably the same reason people play the lottery. They think if they can just get that 1/999999 really rare item from the gacha then the money will be worth it. But they never do because Nexon fills it with worthless crap.

By the way, I wonder if that "Fixed Dye Ampoule Set" thing they have as an attendance prize will be non-flashy... I hope so.

Yeah. :(
You know flashy dyes are worthless when brown non-flashy fixed dyes are priced higher. >_<

i blame the dye pots from the wells...those damn things..

imo, it needed to happen.
Now that flashies are common and nearly unsellable, there are far less fashionogi players using flashy dye just because e-peen. :v
Space Pirate Nithiel wrote on 2014-06-27 08:29

Which is good, because as we all know, flashy looks like shit.

Plus then there's the people like me who synth the dyes. Now its no longer ridiculously expensive to dye something!

...

Unless its black/white/red...but we all know the reason for that.

Also I wonder if the AP pots in this attendance event will follow the same pattern as previous ones?

Yeah, it's great that most colors are cheaper now. I recently found 2 non-flashy dyes for 5k, a teal and a grey, though that may be a one-time bargain since most were at least 25k. XD
This is making me consider take up construct alchemy, so I won't have to keep worrying about expiring dyes.

People who sell their synth'd dyes on Ruairi are usually in the 40-60k / dye range, which is still great compared to when you were lucky to find nice colors (not washed out) colors for under 150k.

I bought an elite vate card so I could synth without actually training anything... works out really nicely with my 10 dye bottles and another 12 from my guild leader. I don't usually sell many (or most don't sell) aside from black ones (only gotten maybe 2 in the last month) but I'm such a fashionogi that I hoard most of them for myself anyway.
