Just got 600 million damage with my friends. With some slight tweaking I think we could get 750m.

 

[Pureauthor]

They really shouldn't let people with no ingots play this new mode.

Yeah, that's right, fuck the poors

 

[Satch]

Well this gamemode is pretty bad.

yeah it got boring very fast like all the others

 

[Dreams-Visions]

yeah it got boring very fast like all the others

Agreed.

 

[Kard8p3]

I think I'll end up playing it until I have 3K jades(at 2.2k), get the bounty and call it quits

 

[Acinixys]

Furions Sheep Stick, Kunkka Shadow Blade and Battlefury are all under $19 atm

 

[ksan]

now i understand, rtz is dendi who time travelled from like 5 years ago to try to beat himself

in other words, rtz dazzle mid

It's fluctuating like nuts right now. It's kind of exciting to watch. Everything is being rebalanced. Keys are crazy low now as well, which is a good thing since this stupid recipe for the dragon thing I picked up requires ANOTHER nelum.

 

[Pinko Marx]

I just got a Shadow Blade from the Bloom Bounty gift.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

People making 4 dollars every five minutes selling the bloom crates they earned from cheesing the boss.

This is insane, surely this wasn't planned like this, right?

 

[ViviOggi]

Got me a Battlefury for 9€, won't even be mad when it goes down to five tomorrow. It was just card money anyway.

But yeah, I think the following year beast occurrences will go down differently. Valve have to have seen this coming though, might just be another one of their virtual economy experiments.

What combo did you use?

 

[RS4-]

I just want the tokens

edit - wow, two bounty chests, two announcers. GG, instead of making 8 bucks I can sell these for a dollar total!

I have to expect a patch tonight. If this keeps going the whole thing is going to crash.

Or everything is just cheaper.

Hopefully it just ends up being the latter and it's better for everyone.

 

[sephi22]

The new Auspicious items chest just killed the marketplace.

Nyx Dagon for $5.
Kunkka Shadow Blade for $13
Invoker Heaven-Piercing Pauldrons for $10

LOL
I'm so glad I sold my WETA Axes. This is a risky game that I don't want to play.

What, are they just failing super fast in a 5 stack, or do they get to some minimum threshold to get a good payout?

 

[Dreams-Visions]

did the Onyx Druid thing crash too? I'd been looking to pick it up but lost interest because it was like $100 last I checked (months ago).

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Hitting the minimum, sell all your items, and then just losing on purpose. It barely costs anything and half the team doesn't even need ingots at all.

 

[Kard8p3]

It's like 10 bucks for the genuine or something.

Everything 'crashed' as in all auspicious rares/mythicals/immortals are selling for way cheaper than before

Auspicious Onyx Druid is 3 bucks, crafted is ~7 and geniuine is ~8

 

[Drkirby]

Shit, I bet the DP cap is dirt cheap now, shame I got one.

whats the minimum?

 

[inkls]

0.80$

All I got before I ran out of ingots was an inscribed spring ward (rare), can't even sell it.

 

[DarkKyo]

I bought a ton of ingot piles when they were 28 cents a pop.... now they are up nearly two dollars higher. such profit!

 

[Captain Fish]

They probably should've just released ability draft as the event mode and then kept it going after the event rather than using this lame raid boss nonsense. I hope they at least try to have an in-game competitive aspect to their next thing.

Buy low Sell high!

 

[DarkKyo]

Buy low Sell high!

I don't know how much longer I should wait to sell.. I mean.. they're only going to get more expensive as there become less and people get more desperate... right? >_>

Eventually its going to be profitable to open the Crimson Parcels in mass.

Wait, are you serious?

People don't know this?

Well, here goes nothing.

S Rank is 10 million.

So have Ursa buy tank items, and pick up WK, Omni, Slardar, and Warlock as supports-- WK is there for his aura for Ursa, Omni is there for clutch heals/invunerability incase bomber screws up, slardar is there for his ult and medallion, warlock is there for fatal bonds.

Everyone attacks the body, Warlock's fatal bonds hurt the horn and tail.

Ursa rightclicks year beast and DOESN'T STOP.

One of the supports has to be a designated mine placer-- 45 or so should be enough for one run to 10mil.

At the end after getting 10 mil, everyone runs back to shop, sells items, then dies. Takes 5minutes if you don't screw up once.

Bam. Easy 3500 jade tokens.

 

[Randdalf]

What combo did you use?

Ursa + Firecrackers: you can perma-stun the Year Beast then get unlimited Fury Swipes stacks on him. We're doing a proper run of it now with what we think is a good set of ancillary heroes, but Ursa makes the damage of other heroes negligible by the end.

 

[Acinixys]

My buddy sold his Genuine shadow blade 2 days ago for $50. Man is he gonna be happy he did so

 

[sixtyfivedays]

Fury Swipes is going to be changed to not affect the Year Beast soon so get it in while you guys can.

 

[KingKong]

I cant wait to buy a whole bunch of cheap mythicals tomorrow

[docbon]

oh nooo

i can no longer buy things from the market

edit: nevermind, all is well again.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

Shit, someone give me a list of items that have come out in the last few months that I need to get for cheap now.

 

[Karakand]

You mean there's others that know my pain during this time of year!?

I work in corporate taxation so I get shit on hard October 15 + the different deadlines for financial year companies too. :jnc

Spoiler

 

[poppedcollar69]

wait what the fuck, you can sell your items to regain the ingots, but if you DON'T sell your items, you just lose the ingots? the hell??

 

[Pureauthor]

I'm pretty sure this, more than anything else, indicates how well Valve thought this mode out.

 

[Drkirby]

Motherfucking Trolling RNG. 4 Chests, 4 Fish Healing Wards!

 

[Acinixys]

Cheese strat with warlock/ursa/wraith king/ogre/omni working well

Warlock fatal bonds links the body, tail and horn so you can go to town on the body for maximum damage. Plus omni just spams repel on ursa so he never takes damage

Good times

Enjoy it before it gets patched out in the next event
