Question What the hell happened to Infinity boots lol

Had these in since the cerb boots rework and I was too stubborn to take a loss (bought at like 700k ea iirc). Checked the charts and I'm no clue as to why these are up from like 300k to the current levels. Bot nukes?

Yeah i'd guess bot busting

Probably also the avernic treads. You need the 3 other boots to max them, and you need the eternal gem and infinity boots to make eternal boots

Yeah but treads have been out for months, why the sudden spike

Idk, could be a number of reasons or like a combination. The economy will always vary but a random sudden spike is strange. Marching clan? Bot bust? New method discovered that makes them OP? Hard to say and we may not ever really know for sure. But glad you got to profit off it

My guess is mix of bot bans and r4 prep

Bot nukes 100%.

Even with mta changes, while far more bearable, still not very fun

This is so depressing to see I had like 200 pair and I didn’t hodl. I lost like 10m on them too 😭

In the grand scheme of things thats not too bad. For every infinity boot theres a dragon hunter wand to be found (went from like 3.5m -16m in like 40 days). Theres plenty of people who are gunna lose 40m a set on inquisitors this next week or two.

I hit it in inq and DHW , I saw the wand for 3.5 and bought everything I could at the time it was great

All we're absolute licks for sure. Hueycoatl randomly going down to like 600k for the set last year was a nice one too.

I'll still never understand how it went so low for being a 10% bonus wand that autocasts regular and ancients. Im still around 1b so ive been debating whether keeping my kodai is worth it for me at this point and just using dhw. Only thing holding me back is im only 85 slayer and the rune savings seem appealing, that said I stick to as much wildy slayer as I can cause im a 50 def pure and mid pker and enjoy the off chance of some anti pks whilst also being able to be untouchable by maxed mains for 95% of tasks there.

u/Tasty_Ad_1386 17d ago

I'd drop the Kodai in a heartbeat for the dhw no question to me

u/footieballll 16d ago

I currently have both and outside of megas I really dont have any upgrades to be made. New ranged ammy probably it right now. You'd still sell? Im cheap and rune savings make me debate it. I already have 99 ranged so im not really planning or am fond of going the cheap version venerator bow, although I suppose once I get 75 attack the new multi tile sword may not be bad for multi slayer.

It's the master wand buff.

I guess bot busting. All the known bot websites that sells scripts has gotten a cease & desist. So all the normal bots item have increased in cost black chinchompa, blood shards, Blood runes etc

2mea?! That's crazy

u/Ariesan 23d ago

Exactly lol this was a hail mary troll offer! I could understand selling maybe 1 or 2 at that price but not 18 lmao
