(and of course us poor plebs as well).
Recently, I saw two things here that made me think
1) a lot of very generous people giving away high runes (or items of that value) for free and *)
2) a pair of Boots being valued ~150 Jah's
My question to the people participating in these is: how did you manage to get that rich?
Did you find these runes? Trading?
I have been playing since the release of D2R and my entire equipment + stash is maybe worth ~15 Jah.
I am aware that:
- my runs are probably not 100% efficient
- my trading skills are not perfect (although this site really helps)
- I have not consistently been grinding since it was released
My second question is, what do you do with these kinds of items?
Sure, the rolls were really nice (I don't remember the details), but the difference to "worthless" ones is 1-2 mod rolls.
In which scenario are the differences so relevant that you'd pay 150 Jah?
When I see someone bidding 50+ high runes on incremental improvements I assume that this is not their entire worth, but merely a fraction.
Meanwhile I'm here after years of playing still collecting PAs and rals to slowly grind towards a couple of high runes.
After many years of non-ladder, how can you still make a profit
*) just wanted to Shout out these people, this is not a complaint
