The most important equipment in the P2 stage of the World of Warcraft nostalgia service is the orange hammer, as the most powerful healing weapon in the history of Warcraft, the value of the orange hammer is undoubted, and the major gold groups have also wrapped up the first orange hammer early, and orange hammer fragments of 5000~10000 gold abound.
However, Xiao Tan predicts that starting from the second Orange Hammer, this carnival feast will come to an end, because the drop rate of Orange Hammer fragments is too high!
Let's take a look at the price of equipment in the first week, the hottest equipment at the moment is not BIS equipment like Heavenly Flame and Comet Scar, the reason is very simple, 25H is too difficult, ordinary players can't beat it at all, and they can't get in touch with these 252 graduation jewelry, even if they sell hundreds of thousands of gold, it has nothing to do with everyone.
On the contrary, the scales of fate are very popular, with an average price of more than 20,000 gold in the Alliance and the Horde, and its biggest advantage is that ordinary Torim will fall, and there is no entry threshold at all, which is the only hope for ordinary players to eat ribs.
Back then, in the international service, the ordinary Ulduar regiment counted on this equipment, and if it came out, it would have a guaranteed salary, and if it didn't come out, it would be used as a brand. The same is true for the Thor Rune, which focuses on an approachable one.
In addition to these two pieces of equipment, the most popular equipment at present is the Orange Hammer Fragment, with an average price of 4,625 gold in the alliance, 5,500 gold in the tribe, and a comprehensive unit price of about 5,000 gold. An orange hammer requires 30 pieces of shards, which cost about 150,000 gold.
Many friends who play therapy may be persuaded to quit by this price: I just play therapy to eat ribs, and you want me to spend 150,000 gold to make equipment?
In fact, you don't have to worry, Xiao Tan predicts that after the first orange hammer is made, the price of the fragment will fall quickly, the reason is very simple, the drop rate of this thing is too high!
Many players have said that after all-access to Ulduar once, more than 10 orange hammer fragments were dropped, which is much higher than the Asian server back then! For example, this player has 11 Orange Hammer Shards at once.
Even more outrageous, some players said that their group got 15 shards in one go, and they could make an orange hammer in two weeks.
In that year, Ulduar only dropped 2~8 fragments on the Asian server once, and it wasn't until the eve of P3 that Blizzard adjusted the drop rate and increased the guarantee mechanism: Yugsaron 3~1 Guardian dropped 1~3 fragments respectively, and Stargazer guaranteed to drop 2 fragments.
With the guarantee mechanism, Ulduar can get 10 shards at a time.
So is it the magic version of the national server WLK directly on the guarantee mechanism? According to players, Stargazing does not drop guaranteed shards.
This proves that the guarantee mechanism has not yet been launched, so if the guarantee mechanism is implemented in the future, the fragments dropped by Ulduar will reach a maximum of 20 pieces, and 2 orange hammers can be made in 3 weeks, and the era of the national orange hammer will come!
Of course, the above statistics are all aimed at the hard mode, the orange hammer fragments dropped by the normal mode are currently only 2~5 pieces, as everyone's equipment is upgraded to 230 and start to challenge the hard mode, it will not be far to achieve 10 pieces a week.
To sum up, Xiao Tan believes that the drop rate of the orange hammer fragments far exceeds expectations, and it will be saturated quickly, so the current high of 5000 gold cannot be maintained, and it will quickly fall to 1000~3000 gold in the future, and it will not even be sold in two months!
