dead artifacts

It's a novelty/vanity item. The value doesn't come from it's stat alone. Just like the paracelsus stone.

Yes, that’s what I said. It’s just a vanity stone that is, IMO, only useful for twinks.

Also I don't think the power stone is better than the mentis shard. Critical damage % is stronger than flat stat. I have it on my bracelet, replacing 1 flawless finesse jewel, from what I'm seeing, it amps damage more.

I agree that crit damage % is better than flat primary stats, but gaining 2.5% crit dmg + 5 dmg for 200m is not worth it IMO. I would rather take my chances socketing power stones and hoping to get lucky rolling multiple crit dmg stats on it than having to socket mentis shard once.

But again, that’s just me.

After the event, it'll go extinct. 200m is just the beginning. I've seen people recently offering over 750m for an untouched paracelsus stone from back then.

You are correct. After the event, it will most likely not come back again, but IMO, there will be better stuff out there that will be released that will be worth more than spending it on this mentis shard that doesn’t give you a huge significant boost in damage.

Just a FYI. I am not hating those players who got them already nor I envy them. I just personally don’t think it’s worth the cost. That will be all.

Thank you.
