    Default Dragon Scale Exchange rate

    I've been watching the dragon scale market on the Auction House, and feel like I have a good sense of the value of white and black scales, but I haven't been paying as much attention to blue. I know they are worth "more", but am not sure how much more.

    As I run Tor more and more and pull blue scales, what should I offer/accept when trading blue for white?
    2 white:1 blue?
    3 white:2 blue?

    Thanks for your help.

    whatever the market will bear. I'm not being flippant, everything is driven by market forces. Experiment with ratios until you find one that is consistently doable. Or find someone desperate.

    Well you shouldn't see any on the AH under ingredients, they are listed under the collectibles section.

    I disagree...

    Supply AND demand...

    you covered the supply portion but other than Red Dragon Scale Crafting and whatever epic GH brings... I dont think you addressed the demand part of the equation.

    You're right, but honestly, there's not much demand except for maybe a small percentage of the player base, and they're the ones running Tor with me

    My opinion on em would be

    black and whites are relatively equal

    1.5 whites or black for a blue.

    soooooo for 10 blue I'd exchange 15 white or blacks

    Thanks for the response. 3:2 seemed to me like a good exchange for both sides, so it is nice to get some confirmation. I definitely didn't want to come off like those rip-off "give me 100K per scale" folks on the auction house. Seriously, does anyone buy those?

    I've been frozen at 21 blues since befor for broke.....I'm getting pretty tempted to spend the 400k.....LOL

    I've been patiently and value buying blacks and whites for 25 k plat and blues for 30-35 k. Not helpful to you since this is on Cannith.....but many will resist a non 1-1 trade even though the blue is a sought after item for some and the white and black are simply worn to be pretty.
    Varr's all over. Cannith Varr getting the love currently.
