I think it's broken, because he was telling me the price of the artefacts in the shop or however they get their artefacts. And he had a bug happen when he tried to put one artefact together and broke MKO momentarily...
You quickly assemble Robes of the Fire Mage.
Black silks cowl the form in their pitch embrace, these grand robes sweeping to the ground, with sleeves that fall to conceal the hands. Imparted to the fabric's strands, a modicum of the fire mage's essence imbues a shimmer of titian flame to play across the ensorcelled garment.
I've gotten like 800cr or so, and I've maybe gotten 60cr from trading. All about the gambling, and I'm terrible at it.
I turned 1200c into a Lupine, level 2 bracelets and a buckawns. Good promo.

turned 700 cr into 2000.
agreed on good promo lol
I hate you people
And you won't understand the cause of your grief...
...But you'll always follow the voices beneath.
Just bought 300 credits, got 353 credits worth of talisman pieces (tophatthread, robesthread, buckawnsclasp), plus 30 45 credits for Elite+5%. Pretty legit promo.
Actually your robe thread is worth 500-1000.
I was pretty lucky here, not so lucky on Imperian. I'd reported my hauls here:

I'm generally not a fan of any sort of promotion where I don't know what I'm getting though, but it at least *seems* that admin built in a minimum return on this one that is comparable to a 30% credit sale (although if you didn't trade at all some of those would be bound, which isn't really a problem for me).
Not having the ability to purchase missing pieces at a normal price (as they do over on Imperian) seems to be pretty devastating for those trying to complete things like robes in particular. I wouldn't even try it. It benefits people who are selling those pieces of course, but makes the market really volatile and extreme.
Traded in Lupine and bracelets to facilitate class change to BM and get level two band. Still a good promo lol

I agree with this. If we could have -some- way of completing pieces outside of RNG, which people use to drive up to extreme prices, that'd be cool. Maybe make it only available to people who have 3/4 of the pieces, idk
@Sarapis @Tecton @Makarios because I can't friggin edit my post
We already provide a trade-in value if you can't complete! That's the solution. Getting the rarest item in the promotion is not supposed to be common or easy. If it was, it'd be an even more absurdly good promotion.
My observation of the MKO promo was that there was lots of profit to be made, but the amount of luck and effort necessary was inversely proportionate to the size of your credit purchase. Still, (and it hasn't even finished yet!) one of my fondest experiences of IRE of all time, and well worth the outlay just in terms of the fun of trading.
That said, and say this with the greatest respect to those who have previously commented, noting that they got more bang for their buck completely ignores the fact that they are entirely different economies. MKO's active playerbase is probably smaller than Cyrene's, with all of the economic disparities that brings. It would be like me sitting here at my Alienware laptop and saying it isn't fair that a guy in Madeupisthan can feed his family for $9 a month.
The 5% extra bonus is nice, but I bought 1,000 credits literally 2 days before the 5% was implemented. I think it would be fair to give a retroactive bonus to people who bought in the last few days.
Honestly, this is always one of the things that makes me think thrice before purchasing credits. If you're a player that can't afford to buy them every month, you're always worried about missing a great promo.
I always wait for the good promo's.
A) Humgii race tickets involved.
C) Never expected a crazy ass promo like this, but I took full advantage. Going to be a while until I buy new credits now :P
i think i brought about 1300 cr or so this month. so i gonna restraint myself for now... (except i would be still subbing to get my credits monthly.
@Tecton and @Sarapis have historically been pretty awesome about retro promo bonuses. Would recommend asking. Tecton in particular took pity on me once when there was an auction started not quite a day after I'd bought a dirk and SoA and let me put 'em back on the shelf at full refund so I had a chance to compete.
Worst case scenario you don't get your extra 50cr.
Oh shit. I can't remember if I've got 100 or 125 coming, but hell yes.
I think the robes are a super special item, too right? I hadn't paid too close attention because it wasn't something I really wanted/needed, but that does make things different there. Almost like an auction, really. I do hope you might consider selling completion pieces "Imperian style" in the future though - even though I probably benefited from the market volatility since I was a mostly a seller (and probably would most often be a seller). It would probably make the promos more friendly for newer players, too, who might have more trouble valuing their items. It's kind of sharkish out there.
Er, completion pieces for ordinary items I mean. Somehow I edited that part out, gah.
Will these be given out during the promotion or afterwards?
TL;DR When will I get my credits?

This makes me very happy. I rarely buy credits, but I did this month, and literally the next day the 5% bonus came in. I couldn't believe it. Hahah.
Meh. 1000c, I'll get it again next month if it's that big of an issue.

1500cr for a BM and your accuracy will suck
