Dude you seriously can't counter people =/ you just dodge it all he even put up a point and your like HEHEHE I'm ma write something witty and dodge what he just said.

His points have been crushed over and over again. He isn't mature enough to simply say 'ok, I was wrong, thx for discussion' so now he practices some embarassing form of damage control. I think it's cute :3

So... Allow me to understand: you've been fooled, overpaid all you had for a pair of lousy gloves. And now you are so disappointed with your terrible decision that you maliciously try to talk others into following your example? So guys like I_NO here can have another couple thousand exalteds and laugh at you and the time you've spent collecting them even harder, as he has done all throughout this thread?

Is this a fair summary of your approach?

If I_NO or any other uber runner has done about about 70-90 uber runs within the week as the person has stated and still hasn't gotten a single glove what makes you think it's ''CHEAPER'' to make a build able to do it?

1) You need mortal hope which is like 1/30 or buy it for 10-14 ex per POP

2) You need gloves to drop which is like 5%

Look it the concept between 1 and 2

Use your brain here that's not very good odds.

All I know is when we had Acuities for sale in mass on Ambush, people died to get them. Literally sold their entire bank for them and did not regret it.

Not vertex, not splendour, not disfavour, if Acuities didn't drop from Uber, no-one would do it.

the only people who need these gloves are people who do low life builds and just try and get the maximum possible dps for sheer epeen sake. That requires virtually BiS items in every slot or you might as well make a life based version on a 50ex budget and be just as effective. If you are one of those guys then nothing but the biggest numbers possible will do, that means you live in a world where pretty much every slot is around 200ex.

You get your shavs 6link, 130ex or whatever it is now, and then acuity, 200ex... then comes the mirrored weapon, 170ex for mirror + 100ex for fee = 270ex, then your mirrored rings, mirrored legacy crit ammy, if you are not a crown build theres the mirrored hubris... All these rare slots are costing more than the gloves or the shavs. As someone said earlier, whats the alternative? Mirror the BiS rare gloves on the server that costs more than 200ex.

No one needs the sort of dps that requires acuity, but if you want it then you need the gloves or a build that gets vaal pact efficiently, and in 99% of cases that means you need the gloves. That means the gloves are as essential as the weapon and the shavs, you need those bits first to function. Its not a luxury item for these people, luxury gear questions are 'do I mirror the BiS diamond rings for 250ex a pop or cheap out and spend 150ex each on an older second hand mirrors of a slightly inferior diamond rings?'.

Yea. Those poor uber farmers. They aren't able to afford to put food on the table, their kids starving.

Somehow I am not convinced.

So tell me - if you were an uber farmer and you got an Acuities - how much would you sell it for?

he would try and get 200 just like everyone else most people

it's because they're worth that
