Should RNG be Removed from enhancement?

I don't mind the god awful odds of making a +15.
But having a gear DESTROYED is the painful part.

A. If gears weren't destroyed, I'd +15 everything fairly quick. This doesn't actually kill … (more)

Solo Title for Resenlian's Labyrinth?

If there is such a title, it was added long after I solo'd lab. I find it unlikely they'd add more titles to lab over a year later...

Wow I literally called it. Two post(ers) after my post, Cessa posted blatantly saying "no one will provide proof because there isn't any".

Do you expect me to believe that it is luck based, but yet the ONLY person in the history of Vindictus that got lucky enough to snag enough D/E bracelets to not only have two of them on your character but to also have fully double enchanted lvl 90 gear with +15 lvl 90 weapon was yourself? You got 30 of these bracelets at 23k? Only you? Because if you say it happened once and you worked for another 400mil and you have 600m total only right now, that's a lot more believable.

When did that person say ONLY they got it? Hell the only sentence mentioning it says they only managed to snag ONE of TWO, that means that someone else got the other one.
I'm not trying to be rude, and believe me I ENJOY being rude, but you seem irrational and unable to read what people have actually stated. You're so busy trying to read between the lines that your hand is blocking most of your vision just to have more lines to read between.

If scrolls are going for 20m one day and then 40m the next day and fluctuating back and forth, it means if you're selling for 20m you're bad at the market and underpricing the scroll. The price of the scroll is 40m. You can wait and sell it tomorrow for 40m. It doesn't mean the price of the scroll is changing from 20 to 40m. It means the people selling and buying have no idea how the market works.

That just shows that YOU don't understand how the market works. The "Price" of an item is the standard it is currently at. If everyone in a first week sells a scroll for 20m, that scroll's price is 20m. If during a second week 90% of the sellers bump the price up to 40m, the price is now 40m. Yes SOME people may still be selling for only 20m, but the item's price is 40mil. And finally if during a third week that same 90% of sellers decide to drop the price down to 30m, the price is THEN 30m. It's not 40m just because it [can] or [did] sell for that much, it's 30m because that's what it [currently] sells out.
Now for the MONTH you could say the price was 20~40m. You could even say the price TENDS to be 20~40m, but the price is NOT 40m it is whatever the current standard is.

Check the old forums. People claimed to be making a billion a day by flipping weapons.

Which is cool, but what you don't understand is that NOBODY IN THIS TOPIC has said that yet. You are arguing against people whom have NOT made that stance thus far. Now if you want to quote those posts and argue against those, fine that's your call. Feel free to disprove THOSE POSTS, but you should not be attacking ANYONE who abuses the market just because SOME people have fairy god parents to wish for infinite gold and then when asked where it came from they go "uhhhh...Internet?"
You are arguing against a strawman you set up yourself.

Yet when I check the marketplace forums there were weapons there still unsold. And when a good deal on a weapon came along still no one wanted to buy it.

H...How do you...KNOW for certain they weren't sold? Because the person never replied to their own thread to say it sold? What if the thread wasn't popular enough to merit it? What if the person just didn't care to let other people know?
Hell, I'm sure you'd find a DOZEN threads in the old forums of me personally selling certain scrolls. Most of which I didn't update when someone whispered me in-game to buy it off me. You'd also find dozens upon dozens of threads where someone was selling Extreme/Tutelary/Sentinel/Passion/Warlord scrolls that I bought without me even posting in the thread, and I'm sure most of which the OP did not post afterword letting other people know the item was bought from them.

Your ENTIRE arguement relies on this strange notion that you have an implausible level of information about the sales that is fundamentally flawed.

Not a single person in the years that I've been playing this game has been able to come out and show what they can do to gain any kind of real gold gain by playing the market.

Let's put it this way. Rationally, what benefit do they get by doing so? The only penalty for not doing so is that you doubt their legitimacy...But you're insignificant to them, so why does that matter? If there is no benefit to telling you, WHY would they? Because there is a CLEAR detriment to telling you, it creates more competition for them.

But you know who was on there literally buying every cheap black dye and reselling it for 30+mil? Myself.

Your arrogance blinds you. Do you seriously think you were the only one? Do you HONESTLY believe you bought [literally] every cheap black dye? Then you are delusional. There were likely HUNDREDS of people doing the same thing, and across atleast TWO US servers.

Why? Because I sat there for 36 hours and that's all I was able to do.

This sums up your post really. You think that because YOU failed to abuse the market, that it's simply impossible for anyone else to do it.
You are BLINDINGLY arrogant. (less)

The problem is that the people who DO know the prices of the market, like myself, are the ones HAPPILY scandalizing the market for our own gain.
