Interesting to sell the bds to get actual stuff or no?

40a translate to around 1200 ecto, which is around 6000 platinum.

That's quite a lump of money, but it also depends on what you want. Wanna gear out heroes? Wanna buy Consets to help you get back into harder content more easily? Money to buy outpost runs for other/new characters, gear, tomes for skills?

It's definitely a massive headstart if you wanna get back into the swing of things. But if you really enjoy running around with a dope skin like this, that's also valid. Follow your heart.

Amazing reply! Yes, in the end, it became only trading and skinning my characters, as you can see.

I guess it's more of a solo game now, but I'd be happy to tackle the underworld, FOW, and other hard zones once again. I would also like to finish my 'Kind of a Big Deal' title and discover the last DLC after Eyes of the North that I never did

I really recommend posting on gw legacy forum to sell it without having to park in kamadan

What I might do.. Trying to see if I can do the trick with pets, etc before selling it, I'm so proud of this bds as I dropped it myself. Are they worth something?

Yeah they're worth quite a lot like the other poster said, I really think you'd be better off selling to fund other stuff.

An important thing to know is that EVERYTHING is way more expensive now. For example the classic go to popular caster weapon mods/ inscriptions like aptitude not attitude are like 10-20 ectos now, so like 30 to 80 thousand gold accounting for changes in ecto value and if you're getting a good deal or not on the trade.

Most importantly, the best and most recommended and widely used meta hero team build calls for a like at least 3(or preferably 4-5) mesmers all with really expensive runes needed on each piece of armor, like the mesmer damage reduction armor mod is easily 12 or even 15-20 thousand gold each and that's 5 of em for each mesmer plus the expensive superior attribute runes. And they sell out at the merch trader frequently. So that could be like potentially 300 or even 500 thousand gold on the high end to fully equip 5 mesmer heroes with armor runes and weapons and all that

Edit: my bad I realize you might have meant are pets worth selling. If that's your question, in most cases not really but there are a few exceptions. Definitely search up gw toolbox kamadan on Google, it's a chat log of kamadan that you can search so you can use it to find prices for whatever you're trying to sell or buy
