  1. So many "veterans" getting butthurt over their decision to spend countless hours farming/saving to purchase a questionable mod in which the value is purely subjective.  Good on those who managed to flip them for a healthy profit knowing the risks, sorry to those who held onto them.

    I predicted Artax rivens making a comeback, and no surprise the same thing with Primed Chamber.  

  2. LOL. 

    As a retired trader I saw this happening at some point years ago. While I do feel sorry for people who saved up and paid over 6 digits for one, I'm happy seeing DE doing the right thing and giving more players the opportunity to try this mod out.

  3. Lol why would you bring up drugs as a comparison? Apples to oranges. We're discussing systems in-game, not narcotics/drugs.

    I highly doubt a small "fraction" of players list on warframe.market. WM is a resource the majority of players are aware about. Only the most clueless players don't take a look at warframe.market before posting on trade chat. 

    Welcome to the free market where prices can drop in an instant. The market corrects itself over time. Warframe.market just compiles buy and sell requests, I don't see what the problem is. I don't see prices tanking on most items, only stuff that has been in circulation for over 3 years. Trade chat is the same thing but 100x more disorganized and cluttered. 

    Instead of typing something every two minutes in trade chat, and waiting mindlessly there should be systems in place that facilitates trading easier that aren't automated which is what most people here are against 

  4. The only people who generally pay 5k or more for a riven are people who have already immersed themselves into the riven market or have done lots of buying/selling of general items. 

    5k, 10k, or even 100k does NOT equate to any monetary value outside of the game. 5k platinum does not cost $200 unless you're the person actually recharging it.  People converting platinum value to a monetary value are absolutely wrong in that way of thinking.  A 5k riven costs absolutely nothing to a lot of people - it just costs time to acquire.  Unless someone is able to cash out their platinum balance for real money, platinum in the game has NO VALUE outside the game. 

    There's literally an endless supply of platinum circulating in the game from people recharging. When there's more platinum to go around, riven prices inflate. 2-3 years ago the best rivens were like 2-3k, now something good is that standard price. 

    It's stupid easy to make platinum in Warframe aside from the riven market with not-so-much effort. Earlier on you could farm Shedu parts in half an hour and net at least 200p every rotation. Every Prime release just farm the parts and sell immediately, easy way to make 1-2k over the course of a day or so. 

    Also a note is that all rivens on the market that are in the high figures may not ever end up trading hands at all. Asking price is not the sale price. There is literally no demand for rivens in excess of 4 digits

  5. OP simply appears to be a meta slave who simply wants to be able to find rivens for such weapons.  Where on earth is this "hoarding of rivens" coming from?  It doesn't make sense to me.  Scarcity does not make sense for rivens, as they are continuously being unveiled every second. 

    Lack of Acceltra or Fulmin rivens? News flash they are among the newer weapons and over time there will be more of them unveiled and available.    There is a greater demand for them because people want to max out the newest stuff and there is less supply.


    I don't see any market manipulation for rivens of any kind.  In fact, the riven market has largely tanked over the past year ever since riven dispositions have been implemented.  Rivens are not trading hands at a degree as intense as before.

  6. Mastery Rank is cool for the extra QoL bonuses, but it's just another number guys.
    I've seen too many clueless players who know little to nothing about the mechanics of the game, sitting on their weapons with 50 kills overall from Hydron for 10 minutes.

  7. 3 hours ago, Jutzo said:

    You are implying that repetive 2 hour farming for a lich is worth 500-1000 plat? I'm sure that no one would wan't to buy a weapon for that high of a price considering there are better ones available for better prices/less time to farm in warframe.

    I'd rather pay that price.  With the multiple layer of RNG in this Lich system there's no way to guarantee I get the weapon I want with the best percentages.
    Almost 18 Lichs later and I haven't gotten myself a Kuva Karak or Drakgoon which is what I've been after for a long time.

    Everyone values items differently, that's the whole purpose of the trade system.  I'm sitting on a lot of platinum anyways from riven trading so I'd rather pay someone else to do the work.  It takes me less time to garner that amount of platinum than to grind a Lich that most likely does not provide what I want.  2 hours every Lich adds up and my time is more valuable than my platinum I've traded from other players.

     

  8. Just vanquished my Lich, finished mission.

    I can't seem to find my Kuva Kohm anywhere, was not in mission summary and no inbox message.


    Edit:  Found in Foundry.  I had extra weapon slots available as well.  Looks like you have to manually grab it.

    Thank you!

  9. If riven.market and warframe.market are such massively-used 3rd party resources, I don't see why DE can't implement those same systems in the game.
    Of course, you'll still need to interact with others to conduct such trades rather than instantaneous trading.


    Many people are against an auction-house style system in fear of tanking the "economy" which can easily be mitigated with a platinum tax for listing items up and a commission price paid for items sold.  I think the system would work better with rivens as most are unique in nature
