Faces of Doom

for other ideas on the glyph market please follow the link to the free Croda's Inscription Gold Guide

as part of my review into the non-glyph markets in Inscription, today i am looking at the off hand Faces of Doom.

Faces of Doom is an offhand that gives +63 Stamina, +42 Intellect, +42 Spirit and increases Critical Strike by a small amount.  However, the important point here is that the player only needs to be level 77 to equip it, not level 80.

They are used by casters that are levelling and normally kept until level 81 at which point the “Book of Blood” is bought.  If the caster wants more intellect at the expense of Spirit then they will go for the Iron-Bound Tome instead.

The crafting cost is c80 gold on my server (5 snowfall + 1 frozen orb + 10 resilient parchment) and i sell them for 200 to 250 gold.  I sell 3 or 4 a week.

I am the only person selling these on my server.

I post at a fall back price of 250 gold and a minimum price of 200 gold.  Similarly to the Iron-Bound Tome, i post one at a time.  If a sale is made then i risk losing another potential sale until i log back on and post a new Faces of Doom.  However, if i were to post more than one at a time my competitors would realise that there is a market here and potentially seek to enter.

In the past, when i increased the fall back price to 400 gold i merely attracted new competitors.  Hence i now keep the price between 200 and 250 gold.
