If you're talking about the ring you bought from me from cs, I PM'ed you in game as soon as I found out and I clearly told you that they were most likely bugged and about to be fixed. You said you didn't mind a small investment in case those stats were somehow going to be for real in one form or another. You basically said it was a small price to pay for a potential huge payout.

Don't get me wrong here, I don't mean this as a personal attack or anything remotely like that. I'm just comparing your mindset to the many people who knew something was off but decided to take the gamble anyway. You, as did anyone who understands stats even a little, knew something wasn't right. I bought one ring to test it out and then sold it again. Too bad you had to be the buyer but you can't say you weren't warned repeatedly, as were most people who got this ring.

actually, i pm'd you first and said "thanks

". Ur comment wasn't a warning it was "no, thank u". U did then say there was a problem and they may be nerfed. Up until that point it never occurred to me there was a problem (I don't check forums on weekends) so I can 100% say I wasn't warned repeatedly. In fact, I was never warned once. I thought the damage gain was offset by the mana loss. My comment about it only being 500k was meant to say that if it wasn't going bankrupt me if it were nerfed. Ur adding ur own reasoning to my comment to make it sound like i knew something was wrong and was willing to take a risk it wouldn't be found out. That's not what I meant at all.

I have no problem at all with the sale. I'm still hopeful sts will do what's right and think of a way to satisfy everyone involved. In fact, this post of yours bothers me more than the sale. I don't appreciate u adding ur own commentary to my in game statements to make it look like I was trying to take advantage of a situation when I wasn't.

Well I think the solution is going to be to nerf them.
It's happening in like 2 minutes so I think it's a good guess

Your memory of what I said isn't what I remember I told you. Saying you weren't warned is simply false. If you want to discuss about it, feel free to PM me. I said everything I wanted to say.

Guys, I don't think anyone was merching these items unless they were a really dumb merchant. The price was falling like rain, so if you bought now, even for half price, you better have a buyer lined up in 2 minutes because in 10 minutes the price will have dropped already.

People were just selling the rings they looted, not buying up others rings. If someone actually did buy and sell these for a profit, then I commend them for their luck because from my point of view, these items were in price freefall from the time they came out on friday.

Ouch to nerf. I know some people who traded their mythic ring for one thinking they got a killer deal. Sucks for them.

first i was mad too, but its our fault for sure it was bugged cuz its and epic ring and first when we have seen it was a shock 7,5 dmg what ring is that ( arcane) no its an epic so something was wrong from the start so sts decide to fix the bug when the next patch was coming , yes many lost like 2-3m on these rings but was an good experiment

i agree. just get rid of it and replace it.

oooh... another thought:
Should've just changed it to legendary rather than nerfing stats.

changing stats is never cool.

One more thing to take note of.
A lot of players dont' read the forum.
A lot don't know much. Barely maybe.
It was mostly unfair for those ones.

good thing i didn't buy it!
lol ;p
