Late in the evening, after doing several Kartia runs for my toons, I was in Giran again as usual to look around the shops there and check the prices. It's been 2 days since the Underground Update and I could sense quite a change already. Some players quitting the game but some others coming back to L2 after 3 years or even 8 years of break...Kelbim prices went up almost a double! and I got to see the NEW Soul Crystal Options! All had additional +5% PvP! NOW! OMG!
By checking the buying and selling prices at each and every shop, I could sense the flow of trend and the player population on my server, chronos.
I saw one shop in particular "PuppetMaster" the player's ID showed, and he was buying Maphr's box for 85kk each...I checked the Nstore and quickly did my math. Hmm...85kk divided by 240 Ncoins = 350K per Ncoin.. not bad...
I knew if I waited for about a month or two...Freya event was coming and there was the news about a NEW LAVIEN Rose Jewels! too...But 350k per Ncoin was a good price offer so after looking around more and thinking about it for like one more hour, I ended up buying 150 x Maphr's boxes and sold the guy the whole thing, getting about 13B from that single transaction.
But..somehow...I could sense a sad sinking feeling widening in my heart. I couldn't figure out why...but definitely I became sad. "I need to CHEER UP!
Let's Gamble!" So here I went again...getting sold to another Nstore gambling promotion. 2 x 5000 ultimate gambler's boxes! Yeah for 10,000 Ncoins I got to open 50 Pandora boxes and 2,000 Gambler's boxes. The result was ....
well I won the Zigor's Gem awards, 10 each, 2 x times; So, 2B I got from the Grocery shop, the rest were irrelavent, some R-crystals, 2,000 Rgems(about 2B worth) so for 10,000 Ncoins I got 4B + lots of random stuff again(had to create a new LvL1 dwarf to keep all the stuff again...lol)
I was still melancholy blue...so I started organizing my warehouse clan inventory hoping that would change my mood... but! suddenly realized there were 120 x EWR sitting in the clan warehouse ALL from my Kartia Box RUNS I did for the last 3-4 months! EWR = 12kk at the AH so I sold them easily for 10KK each, making 1.2B in the end. WOOT! My hard work finally paid off!
At this moment, my heart became filled with joy and a sense of fulfillment again. No more sadness, but a happiness. Yes...it took me just a couple of clicking at the Nstore option menu to make 13B, but months of hard work to make 1.2B(10 times less) and yet somehow that 1.2B was worth way more to me...probably cuz I knew I got them all by myself with honest hard work. I must say...K85, K90, K95 Duo Trio run is an ART in itself. I had to fail 8-9 times in my first attempt to get it right the first time and after that I got to learn the minimum specs, minimum levels for Duo or Trio runs, good class combo, techniques for each phase and each boss but most of all...character balance I am learning and experiencing better with each run.
I was making the one last round look at giran merchants, when I finally came across a Orc character buying the matts and Rgems for... just for......all for...1 x TW armor... I was kinda stunned...an old school L2 player...
I felt like helping him a little so I sold him the Rgems I had.
"Thank you!" he whispered!
!!!! An old school L2 player was actually sitting there Body and soul in that present moment as he was in store buying mode! Anyways, we got to chat a little...and it turned out he just came back to L2 after 8 years and was trying his luck with TW Armor Crafting. ****...suddenly I became jealous of him...Billions and Billions of Adena I had but I was not happy most of the time and always had to have more...and yet he seemed to be more happy and energetic more than anyone I knew...and all his gears were Ghetto...too...
