I'd say one of the reasons could be that people are expecting Von Leon anytime soon without knowing what will be the drops so they are keeping their money right now to buy the things that Von Leon will be dropping
Too many people gatching, not enough people buying APRs. APRs were 9m maybe 1 month ago and are currently 10-10.5. The increasing HP threshold of content also require more HP (Auf 17k/VL who knows) and as a result more APRs. You see how many ppl in the fm trying to T>WS/CS for “x” APRs. I swear it used to be WS/CS for 55/56 and now I’ve been seeing WS/CS->50 Dead time of the game, no event, not enough people buying CS/WS to actually scroll or making mesos to buy said scrolls to hoard, but people are still voting and gatching.
Both of you hit the nail on the head. I've seen people panic sell before over the last few years whenever new content is hinted. Someone smega'ed s> ws/cs 490m ea and when I did an owl they were all over 510m+ Panic selling happens whenever we announce anything in advanced which is why we normally don't do that.
