one bolt quiver is the same as one stack of 99. dont think that there is more than one stack in a quiver. if you get a stack of quivers thats 12x99 so about 1200 bolts.
The Additional effect: Weakens defense is a 12.5% Defense Down effect for 1 minute.
It will overwrite those pesky mob Defense Boost moves like Cocoon and Scissor Guard. It will also stack with other defense lowering effects like Dia and Box Step.
And it is a wind-based effect, so mobs that are wind-based like Colibri will rarely, if ever, be affected by it.
I see that particular peice of "basic economics" sited often here. Honestly its a bit of a peeve of mine.
In real life, that works by driving your competition into financial ruin or a different area of the market, in game it just doesn't. The difference is that you can't undercut someone to the point that they lose the ability to compete with you. They just move on and make better profit while you waste your time on a less lucrative synth.
If you pay attention, you'll notice that these people (they exist on every server) who drive the price down to where no sane crafter would sell just stop selling until the price recovers. They do NOT charge whatever they want, they just stop selling! Once other crafters build the value of the item in question back up, they return listing it at a way low price trying to squeeze the maximum profit possible out of their day by getting more sales in. When its no longer worth their time to spam the synth, they move elsewhere.
well if anyone had the money to do it they could always buy out the under cutters stock and then resell them ..if their selling at 10k ..a stack could'nt you just buy their stock ..then resell it for 30k get your money back..if enough people helped out then it would'nt be to much of a problem their going to run out of stock eventuly and have to either fgo farm more or buy more mats and go make more ..people need to stop Crying (not necersarly people in this post but in genral) and figure out how to make a stand aginst it. i here it all the time ..from crafters complaning about under cutting and nobody with the gil helping do anything about it..
The prices on quivers will skyrocket when there's a tie for first in the conquest. Because when there's a tie Troupe Valeriano is no where to be seen so it's impossible to make quivers.
I won't argue that RMT aren't to blame, nor dismiss that people undercut each other. But what is just stupid is those people trying to save on the AH Posting Tax and undercutting.
I am one of many people who randomly Bid for items way less than they are worth to catch people that do this. 1) I've saved and made millions. 2) Teaches people they should be patient.
I can't do much about RMT or undercutters but I must say stop doing it to save a few gil.
Stupidest thing ive ever seen, people that craft this WHY WOULD YOU LOWER THE PRICE.. honestly when i started crafting i found i was bringing in large amounts of money/day.. it went to 40k/stack then droped back to 30k/stack which is fine.. but Magebi dropped them down to 23-26k/stack.. whats the point of that? your stupid.. you need to go into a little hole and curle up to die if you lower prices on something u make for money.
you crafters need to stop crying about undercutting. seriously. this is still a profitable item, even at 20k a stack. you can either make the boltheads yourself, or you can skill up your woodworking high enough so you can HQ. it's that simple.
We have the same problem on siren. When ever they get back up to 30-40k the same guy Xialiangmei always lowers the price back down to 10-20k
and every one else just follow suits cause they want theres to sell first.
It's kinda insane, and good for rng, thf, etc that dont craft that the ppl that drop the prices drop them sooo low that it basically costs 500 gil more a stack for these than lvl 1 xbow bolts you can buy from npc.
