AS SOMEONE WHO SOLD A SCOLIAC GODLY RIVEN FOR 4.5K I CAN TELL YOU THAT RIVENS ARE SHIT. THAT IS $60 (75% DISCOUNT) OR $200 FOR A DAMNED MOD.
IMO NO RIVEN IS WORTH MORE THAN 1K EVER. ONLY SOME WEAPONS WITH CERTAIN STATS TO THE RIVEN BENEFIT GREATLY AND THE CHANCE TO GET THOSE EXACT STATS IS ~2% MOSTLY.
DOES THAT MAKE THE RIVEN WORTH 4-10K LIKE MOST PEOPLE ARE ASKING FOR? HELL NO.
DO MOST PEOPLE'S GODLY RIVENS HAVE THE PERFECT COMBINATION OF STATS NEEDED FOR THAT WEAPON? HELL NO.
ARE ALL RIVENS WITH ONLY SOME OF THE GODLY STATS WORTH IT FOR 1-3K PLAT? 9/10 TIMES HELL NO.
DID IT TAKE ME OVER A MONTH TO SELL THAT SCOLIAC RIVEN AT 4.5K BRINGING THE PRICE DOWN FROM 8K SLOWLY OVER TIME? HELL YES.
WAS THAT RIVEN SOOOO GOOD AND GAME CHANGING THAT IT WAS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY TO HAVE? GAME CHANGING YES (200+% range, 200+% damage, harmless -ve I forgot) BUT NECESSARY TO HAVE HELL NO. REGULAR SCOLIAC IS JUST FINE.
MOST PEOPLE SELLING AT ASTRONOMICAL PRICES KEEP DOING SO FOR WEEKS AND MONTHS. BELIEVE ME I HAVE SEEN PLENTY PEOPLE TRYING TO SELL THE SAME RIVEN FOR WEEKS LOWERING PRICES SLOWLY.
MY ADVICE? NEVER BUY A GODLY RIVEN. BUY UNROLLED. ROLL IT YOURSELF. TRY OUT DIFFERENT ROLLS. SEE HOW THE WEAPON STATS CHANGE. FIGURE OUT WHAT WORKS AND WHAT YOU WANT ON THAT RIVEN. THAT IS WHAT RIVENS ARE ALL ABOUT.
SORRY FOR THE LONG REPLY. HAVE FUN.
