(IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) people who don't laugh aren't serious persons. or at least, so said Chopin while ancient Romans said laugh, if you're a wise personso yep, smiling is a way to contribute as well.

(IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) Lol (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Let me get us back on track, then. Question: Is the best place to get Catalysts from users who have the Coupon Clipper Hath perk, or is there a way to get them cheaper?

Just buy them from the bazaar, it's not like the original price is that different compared to the ones that users are selling...

QUOTE(gianfrix94 @ Nov 25 2016, 22:26)  I hope you're joking (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) I'm going to have to buy a lot of Robust and Vibrant Catalysts, try telling me the discount doesn't matter (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/faint.gif) You could look at it this way. If you're buying 100k worth of catalysts, that's ~10k saved = half an artifact. That isn't much, most could easily gain that amount just from playing a bit; some might think it's not worth waiting on. When the quantities in question are small, sometimes the answer really is just to grind more instead of looking around.

That's how I think, at least (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) I bought every crystal I needed from the bazaar to forge my shield.

"Have enough" to do without going bankrupt, sure, but it really depends on how much you're going to forge (and how quickly you need it) to answer the question of whether waiting for the discount is worth it.

If your shield required crystals to forge up, I think there may be a problem with the HV code....

call me a scrooge, but i prefer to wait a day and spare a bit. afterall there are many coupon clippers out there, it's not like you should wait a month before finding one of them online (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

You people are cheap. And that's coming from a very poor player (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif) (or maybe I'm just very impatient) I understand Gianfrix being cheap but Scremaz, why?
