Vanquish allows us to sell kunark drops minus epic things.

tl;dr
manna robe
this is prob the best answer given trak / 3 day spawn...lots of chances to get it and decent odds of it going for a higher DKP : plat ratio

z heart, lady M boots / helm / gloves can be good too...just duck out if the bid war escalates beyond your taste

god, I love capitalism
This and most players are lazy/warm-bodies. DKP is much easier to warm-body accumulate than soloing or small-grouping to make plat overall. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I'd rather be a lazy / warm body (I play games to relax from the stress of having a real life), than a cheeto dust covered terminally online NEET poopsocking spawns and "making plays".

There is a middle ground. Not everyone has the capacity to be a leader / playmaker whos going to go out there and consistently get yellow text.

Anyone currently classified as a lazy warm body only has to be willing to log on cleric bots and follow the syntax for the CH chain to go from nearly useless to a legitimate contributor on the overwhelming majority of raid targets. You can literally copy your character and ui files, rename them from (yourchar) to (botname) and viola, you're no longer druid #9 waiting for that next potg request.

You can still log on as you see fit, rock a < 5% RA, and accumulate enough dkp to get some pretty sweet loot here and there.

Being comfortable piloting cleric bots as a bare minimum is sometimes a make or break, especially on unslowables and vulak with low numbers.

Agreed. Big guilds have a bot army, so you just need to be willing to learn and play the bot classes. Anybody who can do that is going to be leagues ahead of the people who just log in to their main regardless of what classes are needed and soak DKP.

for some historical accuracy here, being a warm body and getting jack shit, let alone raid gear is a very new concept, even years prior to you joining i don't think a single pixel fell from the clutches of 1-3 guilds and a revolving door between them and the same players for like i don't even fucking know when. i put in like 40 hours of tracking for my PD robe and ear when it still mattered back in the tmo days.

historical accuracy correction: "back in the tmo days" is when 99% of tmo you saw for 5-10 mins a week during pd and the rest of the time it was already Detoxx's guild of idiots and play makers

I’m not anti-farm. In the context of selling big ticket items most guilds have a better chance of sniping Magi than KT or Lady Mir.

But to take the bait, yes it’s a silly spend. It’s a good pet but the water can smoke its dps and the earth is more control. I’m very happy with my non epic mage and the 15 mins it took to get the water staff.
