Hello,

there are some threads about this, but I dont know whats the uptodate situation?

Which items with str/con items are available in Albion at the moment and what are the common prices for them? What amount of buff do they give?

Thank you

Akar´s Barrier, dropped by Churiel, value 53 or so
Cloak of Duradings, dropped by Legion, value 75

Ty... Affordable in any way?

I guess that's the kind of thing you could apply this thing to :

If you don't know the price, it's because you can't afford it.

True dat, I managed to get together 20 plats and I felt very, very rich. Until I learned the price of some of these high-end items...

BUYING one of those items is one thing, but keep an eye of the running costs:)

you only have a (small) advantage if you have those buff all time up. you cant fire on inc, beacause increasing you CON needs some time to reg up.

so better spend money on other items...

hm 53 or 75 is more than aug con V and aug str V together and who need its to fire before inc? 10 minutes time and i you dont miss to recast it before it runs out, no hp loss at all

On pvp where I had no access to bb (but others) I ran str/con from items 24h/day. But money was never a issue there.

Pricing of items tends to end up roughly based on 1 to 2 plat per hour per person on a raid. With significant adjustments when an item is new. Like the legion cloak hasnt quite normalized back down yet.

So akars:
5 person raid
15 tears on average to be sure each gets an akars = ~150 to 200p/5 = 30 to 40p per akars (person hours already counted in price)
15 sortrom churiel raids at i dunno maybe 1.5-2 hours each? = 150 person hours/5 = 30 person hours per akars
less the average value of other loot dropped per person = -30-40p per person

and you end up with a price around 60p. then inflate the price insanely high because people dont know taj well and its hard to doa pick up group raid. it ran about 100 to 200p befroe the cloak came out. odds are it will readjust back up to around 75-100p simply because of the difficulty in farming one without a set group.

--------------------
cloak right now is inflated up around 75+ plat.
I dont know the % to drop so cant tell you how many legion raids and of 16 or 24 person it would take. but do the math and its not bad. even tho your % chance to get the cloak is very low for legion raids, the plat per hour is already very high because just about everyone gets a respec stone (legion farming for new items is one of the reasons why respec stones are at an all time low right now). odds are it will normalize back down to around 50-60p once the market has enough on them to not give an added advantage of using a +75 charge when other soloers are still only using an akars.

problem is alb never has DF. so that might take a while.
