I’ve been playing my villain-side characters quite a bit more lately.  After getting hooked on stalkers, I started playing my brutes a bit, too.  Here’s what happened in a team not too long ago.  It taught me the importance of dying away from teammates so they can’t do, well.  Just look and see:

And in case that’s not clear, here’s another view from a different angle:

How much harm can an extra zero do?  It seems like, well, nothing, just dangling at the end there.  But sometimes, when you aren’t paying attention, you find that one extra zero killing your pretty pocketbook of win.  I, as a marketeer, sometimes find that one extra zero tripling a secondary profiteers holdings.

That poor IO was listed for 31,017,223, and sat for weeks and weeks waiting for a buyer.  While I was out of town camping, a happy buyer came along.  I am sure, however, that he wasn’t so happy after winning.

Thanks, anonymous buyer, for typing that extra zero and throwing an extra 306,000,000 (before market fees) my way.

I frequently leave lowbie bids out for a number of relatively valuable IOs and recipes.  This morning, I logged in to find I got a super deal on an unbounded leap stealth IO.

All the ebil-marketeer-haters can start bitching at me now.

For the doubters, here are screenies of the new Winter’s Gift recipes.

So it looks to be a new Universal Travel set.  No idea on when it will be out, as it wasn’t in any patch notes.  Maybe super-early testing of issue 13 content or winter event content that accidentally leaked out?

Just another quick post to help out the City of Heroes/Villains community.  One of the recipe drops previously identified as unknown in CatWhoorg’s invention forum post is Entropic Chaos:Damage/Endurance Reduction.  I got lucky enough to find another one last night:

W00t for me – this makes 2 recipes I’ve been able to help identify.

I forgot to mention that while I was making 45 million influence from doing nothing but reselling an enhancement I purchased cheap from someone else, I noticed that my earnings weren’t even among the better returns on this particular IO in the blueside market:

I wasn’t bold enough to try locking up any purchases for 12 million, but I did avoid those levels so whoever got those could continue to do well.
