Hi!
I'd like to present and compare prices of some items on Item Mall.
No one likes to walk without a mount either in dungeon or just outside safe zone, so why not getting a mount?
- Jade puma 80% mobility, permament, no dungeons: 1799 e-cash. Hm not bad for one-time purchase, but wait! Not usuable in dungeons qq
- Kruger's family mounts 100% mobility, dungeons and safe zones: 1199 e-cash for..... 7 days (While description says it's for 15 days, when I bought it I was quite disappointed) So that was the mount I always used to get on Ran and earlier servers. Snow kruger for like 650 RPs (old e-cash) for 30 days.
- Master pack's 100% mobility legendary mantis, dungeons and sz: 5999 e-cash. Mount for 30 days.
As I said, no one likes to run without a mount in dungeons as well, it takes so long without WF that's why it's time for a quick math if I wanted to get 100% mobi, dungs & sz, 30 days mount:
4 x Krugers 28 days for 4*1199 = 4796 e-cash. (~5139 e-cash for 30 days)
Legendary mantis 30 days from Master pack = 5999 e-cash.
See the difference? I hope I don't have to mention all the stuffs you get along with the master pack if you buy it.
But of courseeee you can just get the permament 50% mobility mount in game. Just kill ruler. A few times. Maybe couple times. Or just maybe even more. Or kill Tyrant and hope for the drop........ not. With drop rate like these I wonder if in a year there's gonna be a one mount on the server. So yeah, chain quest for mantis I suppose...
We all are grinding like mad now so we look at the exp scrolls........ :
- Harmony Seal (3Hr) 100% pt: 599 e-cash.
- Silver party pack's 2x 100% pt scrolls 5hrs and other stuffs: 1499 e-cash.
- Growth Seal (3Hr) 100% solo; 299 e-cash.
....... then we go like WTF these prices are!
- Silver solo pack's 2x100% solo scrolls 5hrs and other stuffs: 1199 e-cash.
Want to grind 10 hrs with the pt scrolls? Ok, maths:
3x Party scroll 100% 3hrs 3x599 = 1797 e-cash for 9hrs (~1997 e-cash for 10hrs)
Silver party pack 2x 5hrs party scroll 100% = 1499 e-cash. for 10hrs.
Eee..... ok?
Solo botting (hunter-kitting) with solo scrolls? np! Here we go:
3x Solo scroll 100% 3hrs 3x299 = 897 e-cash for 9hrs (~997 e-cash for 10hrs)
Silver solo pack 2x 5hrs solo scroll 100% = 1199 e-cash.
Hm... Seems someone screwed up and put prices for solo scrolls too low. (Just a poor joke)
- ..... and many more items. Post is too long already.
Conclusions? CHANGE the prices of the Item malls items because they are WAY over priced! Please.
TL;DR : Isen Item Mall items are so overpriced that for example buying single pt scroll is not worth enough, because packs are way better. Same goes for a mount.
