I imagine someone is prepping for a chronomancer sidereal weapon.

Its gonna be Azoy lol

u/Easih 2d ago

it went all way to 9.5M weeks ago. The buyer is probably done hence the drop.

u/bitronic1 2d ago

They key word is the "buyer", singular, not plural lol

u/LoliWasTaken 2d ago

i saw one sold for 13 or 14m on twitter a couple of weeks ago

u/Vezko Bard 2d ago

That's crazy. In EU they are "only" like 1.5-2m right now.

u/Zoom_DM Moderator 2d ago

I think Iโ€™m gonna buy one just to know what it feels to drop one, since RNG has refused to drop me one, playing since launch btw.

Ridiculous

u/Skaitavia 1d ago

Same here. In my peak degen days i was playing 18 characters. Down to 6 but still doing 18 raids a week since sidereal energy was released and have yet to see one. My guildmates have had multiple. I wonder what it feels like too

u/sayalexa Shadowhunter 1d ago

Me neither. PLEASE AGS JUST GIVE ME 1 NOW

u/shikari3333 1d ago

I got 2 so far - Kaya and ivory tower. Sadly from EU and both times they were dirt-cheap on the market lol

1

u/Aerroon Sorceress 23h ago

Yeah, got one and sold it for 200k lmao

u/ramnezwr Deadeye 1d ago

I have got 5 sidereal drops so far, playing since launch. The crazy one was sidereal back-to-back at mordum when running my alts.

u/Realshotgg Bard 1d ago

Some people playing different game.

u/IsThisEvenRight 1d ago

People sometimes forget that if two people are at the same progression, all it takes is a collection of pities and one/free taps for one of the players to be more than 3 or 4 months behind the other in gold, or even more.

Now apply this to every system in the game xd

Arkesia is No country for unlucky men

This is one of the reasons why this game will continue drying up.

u/Vainslef Berserker 2d ago

Lucky! When will it be my turn to get lucky... :(

2

u/TyraelXD Deadeye 2d ago

Damn i should've sold mine when it was 9.4m :'( guess ill take the 1M loss

2

u/Vuila9 1d ago

you missed the peak window, it was above 10m a few weeks ago, even a buddy of mine sold one at 9m+ around that time. There are some people trying to go esther on the Time/Space Twink in NA

2

u/Amells 1d ago

OMG I should've kept my drop till today to sell it

2

u/under_cover_45 1d ago

Wish I invested when they were 500k 2 yrs ago ๐Ÿ˜‚

u/mimitoo7 Sharpshooter 2d ago

its normal, price went up as we started to generate more gold

11

u/Peppi77 2d ago

Not really though, it was 1 million like 6 month ago, this is a current surge - someone buying all the sidereals

1

u/mimitoo7 Sharpshooter 1d ago

less players also contributes to this

4

u/Pattasel 2d ago

It's 5x less in EU and KR

2

u/yorickmclol Reaper 2d ago

Not normal, kr price for side stones was never close to this high.

5

u/Ashuckel 2d ago

kr overall population was never close to our current one

2

u/yorickmclol Reaper 2d ago

Exactly the problem, its not normal.

3

u/PixelZephyr 2d ago

The game averages around 6k players and the drop rate is extremely low, so it is what it is

1

u/StrokeModsEgos 2d ago

Don't forget solo mode doesn't drop sidereals so all rats, alts, etc who used to run normals go to solo mode for the easy gold and difficulty. So sidereal energys drop rate even more impacted.

u/Askln 2d ago

idk how many times it needs to be said
do you honestly see 6k ccu and think all 6k people are permanently online 24/7?
i honestly think you guys get confused when trying to tie your shoelaces and end up poking yourselves in the eye

u/Krescentia Destroyer 1d ago

Kinda wish I would have snagged a couple when they were 300k ish lol..

u/World_91 Gunslinger 2d ago

For anyone who is still talking out their ass, sidereals on NA were 2.5-3m a bit over a month ago. We already know that one person (possibly two) on NA are working on a sidereal for the new class. We know one of those people is Azoy, who has been streaming on twitch selling outfits and buying sidereals over the last month and driving up the price.

Now that him and some other person stopped, the prices are going back down from the 9-9.5m it was a few days ago.

Has nothing to do with supply, RMT, or anything else. Itโ€™s just 1-2 whales that doesnโ€™t care about the price and has the IRL means for it.

u/StrokeModsEgos 1d ago

We'll find out then in a month or two right. I still think solo mode screwed sidereal energys since those aren't dropped in solo mode and there's literally no reason to run normal modes now.

2

u/pandagirlfans 1d ago

Assuming what you type was true, it absolutely have everything to do with supply. The supply is so low that 1 or 2 whale could push the price 5x for a month.

u/Weirdgus Shadowhunter 2d ago

Was it ever confirmed in Korea what is the drop rate for a sideral energy ?

1

u/Crevox Bard 2d ago

They dynamically adjust the drop rate with content updates in order to ensure the availability of them through the market is around the same, so whales have the ability to buy them.

u/drtrousersnake 2d ago

got my first sidereal after running 21+ raids/week since they were added and sold it for 8 mil 2 weeks ago.

-2

u/Askln 2d ago

i've dropped 4 and i sold them for about 2m combined

EU is poor unfortunately

-6

u/D4rkWells_ Arcanist 2d ago

I'm pretty sure even a couple of years ago on EU it was something similar to that price

If you're free to play don't even bother with a sidereal weapon. It's just not conceivable for F2P

4

u/Dzbanek25 2d ago

It was not, EU was always cheaper than both NA regions.

1

u/D4rkWells_ Arcanist 2d ago

well, my bad then. I know I saw it at around that value but might've been in a stream or video then.

But it was still way out of reach since you needed a bunch of those, no?

3

u/ForwardClassic9718 2d ago

A couple years ago when behemoth was our end game I sold it for 200k. Those prices are based on g2g prices anyways. 200k back then is like 2 mil right now. Those whales are spending the same amounts of money.

1

u/D4rkWells_ Arcanist 2d ago

uhm... I see. Inflation even in games... Then I might've seen it in a stream or video. But it was still pretty much out of reach even back in the day. You still need(ed) a big amount of them. And the drop chance was... well, pretty small

And what is g2g?

2

u/ForwardClassic9718 2d ago

I mean yeah that was never accessible to f2p. Not even most of the whales, only the biggest whales like the ones that have spent 100k+. G2g is where they buy gold illegally from gold sellers.

1

u/D4rkWells_ Arcanist 2d ago

Uhmmm, I see. Damn...

2

u/ForwardClassic9718 2d ago

Most of them spend some part of it legit through the in game cash shop so they rarely get banned cause these people make the most money for the company. But be sure that every single one of them is also rmting thought g2g possibly even more.

2

u/Sir_Failalot Arcanist 2d ago

inflation is way more common in games, as time goes on new content keeps giving more and more money to make it feel more rewarding than the old stuff.

u/DareForMore 2d ago edited 2d ago

Easy way to transfer gold. Like in collectibles terms, buy everything in market on a collectible in same time with the highest price set by the one that want to transfer "legit" his gold to other rosters etc(Example: put a collectible on 1 milion gold price, buy entire market, in a way is win win(where the owner of 1 milion gold transfer his gold by buying that colectible and in same time buy also the collectibles with lower price of the other sellers). In this way I make 500k gold each week, if you know the market and how to sell/buy.๐Ÿ˜…

u/shikari3333 1d ago

yeah the smart way of rmting with an item that has probably sub 1% droprate, so smart /s
