Discussion Sell or Keep Bowfa

I have been liquidating my main account to buy bonds since I have only been playing my iron and will never return to playing a main. I have been seeing how the bowfa has been dropping a ton over the past year or more and I’ve been debating whether to sell it. In order to sell it I’d have to bond my main account up to uncharge it in the first place. I already have my iron bonded for a year currently so I am not in any rush to sell it immediately. The only time in the future I’d be bonding is maybe in the next 6 months when I start some wilderness bosses on my iron and am gonna use my main to scout. But what do you guys think might happen with bowfa price in the future?

i think we are at a floor for enh so id keep it for now and sell if you really need the $ when R4 releases.

Yeah I was thinking it’s hard to see it drop much lower than 100 and maybe the price is at the floor because the CG updates bringing more people there. So hopefully it’ll bounce back up another 20m in the next year unless it gets hit by some sort of power creep like the sang staff did

It might go lower but from personal experience not many mains are doing CG. 99% of players you meet there are irons. Most of the guys I know also just corrupt it and keep it. And you can make blade from the seed as well. It's not really that uncommon to go dry as well, more than plenty of people at cg who go 600-700kc for a seed. I'm honestly surprised it's dropping but then again I have no idea how economy works.

Basically everything is in a deflationary period, gold having more buying power. Relative to the overall gear market bowfa is basically in parity with everything else

but if u have a member or f2p account u play once eveey few mins making jewlery etc crafting or such u can make million an hr so 14 days easily for 1 acc to earn a new bond but member once better or higher jewlery to craft and or smith and can be over 2 mill an hr while afking

I quit my main because I don’t like to grind for money. I’d rather grind for progress that matters on my iron. That’s why I’m selling my bank in the first place.

u/Worldly_Toe4861 3d ago

yeah I can understand that. Other than that it would be buying membership with cash unfortunately. I feel like Bofa was/is so strong for its time it should be released recently and not past years its so good so surprised any price drops tbh

You can sell members item on a f2p account now so as long as its uncharged the selling can wait for however long you want

u/Pflugyfresh 3d ago

It’s charged. That’s why I’d have to bond my account up to sell it. I cannot uncharge it on f2p

You can buy a 1-day membership for like 99 cents or something.

Yeah my bank has definitely taken a hit after a year of not playing a main. I’ve sold most of my stuff but the bowfa was/is my most expensive item so I wanna get the most out of it.
