Are you going to have a 10 minute rule to keep people from making a bid last second with no way for one to counterbid higher?

Title: The Unicorn Slaughter

Author: Tamais

------------------------------------

I left the King's Council
with a feeling of dread...
trouble with the Juka.
Harriet the Hag would fill
us in.
She was waiting for us
in the Hall, "Friends,
listen to me please. This
is urgent."

The room filled with
concerned silence. "I have
been told by certain
reliable pixie friends of
mine that they've taken
to slaughtering unicorns."
She paused looking around
at shocked faces.

"Nooo!", I cried out, "Why
would they do that?"

"We do not know the
reason." Harriet answered,
"It is for you to find
out please. I will take you
where you need to go but
heed my words, Do not
come in contact with
these juka."

Wow, the thought made
me shiver.

Harriet continued, "They
have been practicing the
incognito spell. I have
seen it with my own
eyes. The higher skilled of
them can change forms."
Too soon we were able to
find out how true that
was. Friends would soon
be hard to tell from
fiends.

"The life, both flora and
fauna, has been affected,"
Harriet frowned, "You
have the authority to put
down any life form that
seems to be affected.
This is very dangerous
work if indeed what they
are doing is casting spells
like incognito. Keep your
eyes open. If you see a
creaturethat is changing
form, inform us. That is
our main target. Be
prepared for when it
turns on us. We will take
it down!" Harriet
forcefully declared. "We
seem to have enough
people here to do so,"
She motioned for us to
prepare to leave. "I hope
you are all prepared to
fight them. They will not
be happy to see us. Go
now and meet me at the
Ilshenar Gate of Justice."

I raced to meet her.
Upon arriving, I found the
plants dying along the
road. We followed Harriet
to a mountain pass only
to find it blocked by
corrupted Corpsers and
evil oaks.

"Help kill these beasts,"
Harriet called as she
attacked.

Untangling myself from
acid drenched roots, I
wondered how could they
have known. Then I
remembered the strange
drones that had been
spying on us. Could there
be someone else involved?

The battle through the
pass was slowed by
Enraged Earth Elementals
fire ants, and jukan
experiments-- Creatures
that used to be spiders
and rotworms.
"MUCH DANGER AHEAD,
FRIENDS! STAY
TOGETHER!" Harriet
shouted as she rejoined
us, "Friends, I have run
ahead...Move slowly
friends" Harriet led us
into the valley. There we
found a forest of evil
Oaks filled with more
Fire Ants and Juka
experiments. Wave after
wave they came...joined by
Jukan Pets. Closer to
the hills we finally fouond
the Juka Unicorn Hunters
and Juka scouts, but
there was no sign of the
Jukan who had used the
incognito spell.

Fighting to my side, "Any
sight of anything using
incognito yet?" Galimar
asked me. I shook my
head, "Just Jukas and
their pets."

Noticing the healers had
retreated to the safety
of the hills, I ran over
to see why. At last the
Jukan under the incognito
spell had shown, Bringing
with them Juka, maddened
by battle lust.
Unfortunately, they saw
me at the same time.
Unable to reach the
healers on the hill, I went
in search of others.
Carefully, I sneaked back
to my body, hearing rocks
falling, I looked up on the
hill...spotted someone in
stone form. I don't know
how they got up there,
but at least now the
healers had a protector.
Imagine my surprise when
the stranger summoned
mantra effervesences and
fetid essense. Before I
could shout a warning, it
jumped down and began
killing.
Battered, bloody and
weary, I meet Harriet
back at the hall.
"Well done," She looked
down at the kryss she
was holding and sadly
shook her head. She held
out a weapon for me to
see. To my horror it was
a kryss made from
unicorn horn.

"Our poor unicorns," I
started crying.

"So, at least now we
know what they are
doing," Harriet declared,
her voice heavy with
anger and sadness.

***The Kryss on display
here is the very Kryss
obtained from this
tragedy***

This is such a great way to auction items. I am glad to see BrianFreud is back and hope he does some statistics on what items sold for. This paints a much better picture of the current rares market on what people actually will pay instead of being dictated by the multi-boxers. Case in point, look at the silent auction house, most items had no bids because sellers either 1) overpaid their items and just now realized with a rude awakening 2) they are still wishful thinking 3) they are by the multi-boxers themselves thinking they can buyers that way. Bottom line, good items will always fetch a good price, e.g. that Primitive Ogre statue selling for 400 mil, Timelord mirror selling 500+ mil etc...

I think in general the em items market long ago maxed out. Let me generalize here - I know some months a shard may not have a drop, or a shard may not have an EM, or whatever else. You may also have a shard with two or more drops /rgb items/ etc in a given month, or Mesanna may drop by, etc. I think it's safe to say that all roughly balances out, such that on average, each shard has one drop a month.

Let's ignore siege and mugen, as their economies are separate from the one the rest of us share.

25 shards. 12 months a year / season. We are on season 18. Average of 20 count per item. That's 300 items a year, 5400 distinct items overall, and *108,000* em items total. Now add in prepatch, bug items, seer, rubble, gifts, and everything else.

The market is super saturated already.... And the number of collectors is falling.
