Irrational Markets and Flight Rising

[rowyn]

Like all game economies, Flight Rising's is quirky. Some of Flight Rising's quirks make sense to me but are intriguing nonetheless

I'm fairly sure I've seen Runic Bats available in the marketplace- I might be wrong but I know I've seen them somewhere. They may also drop as familiars from the Coliseum. I'm currently collecting nightwing bats but it's a side effect of gathering meat to try to collect magpies for a Storm Seeker. Storm Seekers definitely drop in the Coliseum.

I did get a Fallout Streak from Swipp yesterday- happened to have the bloodscale shoulders and the feathers, and am not yet to the Harpy's Roost where the Fallout Streaks drop. I should check prices on the Bloodscale shoulders against the price of the Fallout Streak, but for me Swipp is more about the fun of being patient and that "Yay!" feeling I get when I have the materials available for a swap.

As for golden chests, I do swap for them because there's a familiar I'm looking for that I've never seen in the marketplace or in the auction house. I'm hoping it comes from the chests.

Which familiar is that?

Scythe Kamaitachi- I already have the Sickle and the Salve. The Scythe is the white one.

Huh. The announcement said Treasure Marketplace, so maybe they just sell out quickly. I could see essentially albino ferrets being popular XD

Good luck. :)

That's the odd thing, I've never seen them in the Marketplace, and never on the auction house. Crim has never asked for one either (if I'm at the computer I hit Crim once an hour). I sort of wonder if they aren't really in game yet, and will be in the Adventure area that isn't released yet.

And yeah, after having four white ferrets, I'm really attached to white weaselbeasts. :D

After I saw Crim asking for a Scythe Kamaitachi, I got curious and asked on the forums. Someone said that when the admins were asked about it, they said the Scythe Kamaitachi was not available in the Marketplace, but would be in a yet-to-be-added Coliseum area.

Greedy Crim asking for items users cannot obtain ;P

I know what you mean, there's sort of a sense of accomplishment in making a swap which buying something from the auction house does not really give. It's not rational but it's still real. :D
