What do you guys think the AP price for Monster Sets will be?

You missed an option for "none". After SO MANY helm farms, facing the ridiculous RNG of the game having monster sets available to buyout, specially for AP is preposterous.

Regular dungeons are already boring, only IC's provides something to work for, be it helmets or achievements and now this? Meh...

It would be SO much better to incentivize the helm farms but nooooooo let's screw everything up with stratospheric prices to break an already broken economy.

^^^^ A PvE only player? The "You can't have my stuff!" attitude is palpable.

IMO, anything below 2-3 million is too low IMO.

Think about new players and most importantly ZOS' target of casual players. That would be out of reach for quite a while. This is supposed to be an alternative to having to PvE for the monster helms. Putting them behind prices that high does the exact opposite.

Even more interesting how people who only PvP think they should be able to obtain everything in the game by doing just that, and that it somehow should be just as profitable, aswell, as grinding materials/monsters.

See, I can generalize aswell, it serves nothing thought other than poluting a discussion and segregating the player base.

I am in a high profile raiding guild, so I am probably the most "PveE-ish" player you will find. I still enjoy PvP (when my class and server performance allows me), and I am totally against all this giving people what they want how they want. If people want the PvP *** they PvP, if people want the PvE gear they PvE. Too bad ZOS has now decided to cater to the PvP crown and somewhat give them what they want, because that means the next logical step is to allow earning alliance skill points and/or gear outside PvP, and I never wanted neither.

actually to bad ZOS decide to gate pvp BIS eqiup behind pve objectives. this entire discussion would be mood if PvE drops only provide PvE bonis and the alliance abilitys would require the battlebuff to be used.

500k AP or 25 million gold because that prices them out of reach of anyone that doesn't do pvp as their main priority while keeping it very affordable for those that pvp on a high level daily. Seems like ZoS logic.

750k minimum? That would seriously take waaaaaaaaaay too long lol.

I am trying to get my favorite shoulder (Engine Guardian)
in PvE for months now without luck.
This is what you can call "waaaaaaaaaaay" too long.

People can make 1 Mio. AP in 1-2 weeks. This is waaaaaaaaaaaay too cheap/fast.
With only 1 Mio., everybody would soon wear a monster set. Is that really intended?

I know people who got their helms and shoulders on the first attempt, or used the trap beast exploit and got it inside a week. People shouldn't confuse RNG with being a special snowflake.

Monster sets are not that great - only a couple are worth using in PvP.

Also you have to buy 2 pieces for a set..something to think about.

Also making things excessively expensive ruins build testing. Look at the crazy matt requirements for v16 and high cost of alloys.

I'd like to see blind boxes for 250k. You just know it's helm or shoulder not what set or trait. 1 mil for a good trait and the set you want sounds reasonable too maybe offer both with rotating sets.

snoogadooch · January 2016

750k

I hope there is a gold or combo mix. Dungeon farming for a particular trail is ridici, but AP farming is boring.

Molag_Crow · January 2016

750k

300k-700k considering that they're not hard to get.

nowhere near these ammounts...probably less than 250k

was already stated it would be very expensive

But "expensive" is relative. The question is, expensive to which kind of player?

I think about 1.5mio would be a good prize. Then you'd be able to buy your first head about the time when you reach vet1.

Over 1 million AP per piece probably...

nans_biscuits · February 2016

I really hope it's not more than 250k per helm/shoulder. This was meant for the PvP players that don't want to do PvE right?

The people you see on top of the leader boards who can afford paying over 1mil per helm/shoulder are without a doubt the people who already have several monster helms/shoulders and run dailies or farms helms with guild mates.

I really hope this update allows the true solo pvpers to get monster sets. I mean the people who don't do dungeons at all and don't farm AP in organised groups, yet are still more skilled than the people at the top of the campaign leaderboards.

ThePonzzz · February 2016

I was thinking between 100k and 500k.

What?!

People that are more skilled than players on leaderboards have neither AP nor can run dungeons?

What sorcery is this?

It'll be the highest cost of course. Prolly higher than what I selected.

Think of an empty balloon as content then think of super high prices as the helium.

aLi3nZ · February 2016

1mil

I guessed 1M.

Someone said you could also buy them for gold. Is that true?
Is it only monster helms for sale and not shoulders?
How much gold do you think they will sell for ?

Isn't it "Three Fiddy"?

Anyway, I'm being pessimistic (or optimistic ;P) about this, so picked the highest.

I would hate that. Then this would just be WoW 2.0... I like that PvE and PvP is connected.

Would have guessed higher than this, considering Akaviri style costs around 4m AP total and has no use except for vanity.
