On Wednesday, October 28, SOL: enchant (hereinafter SOL) raised the level requirement for crafting Nine Cores and added new Codex collection entries utilizing rare gear and Seals of God. Alongside this, the Sky Island regular season officially began, while rewards for enhancement failures and crafting recipes for certain items were also updated. Following this patch, which brought simultaneous shifts to currency sourcing and equipment usage, we analyzed exchange market prices, focusing on the streamer servers Calteon and Lindel.

First, we looked at Nine Core prices. Calteon plummeted from 12.18 Diamonds last week to 7.5 Diamonds, while Lindel dropped heavily from 12 Diamonds to 7.92 Diamonds. Both worlds experienced drops of over 30% within a single week, bringing Nine Core prices down to single digits. With this patch, the required level for weekly limited crafting was raised to Level 53, and unlimited crafting to Level 55. However, at the time of data collection, this had not yet led to a price rebound. Unstable Nine Core events are also ongoing in zones including Sky Island, which just launched its regular season, so further observation is required to see how much the higher crafting level requirement will ultimately impact the total supply of Nine. In Calteon, the legendary armor piece Dike's Helmet was listed for 450,000 Diamonds. With legendary armor items appearing on the market alongside the usual legendary weapons and confirmation scrolls, attention is drawn to which Inheritor will claim the gear. In Lindel, a legendary Combat Tome (Holy Grace) was listed for a staggering 550,000 Diamonds. This stands in sharp contrast to Meteor Strike, which dropped from 500,000 Diamonds last week to 245,000 Diamonds. As this marks the first time a legendary skill book for a non-Mage class has been listed, interest is focused on whether an actual transaction will take place.

Equipment and Accessory Enhancement Scroll Prices Enhancement Scroll Prices Drop Despite New Collection Addition

Equipment enhancement scroll prices fell by more than 10% week-over-week across all 10 surveyed servers. The overall average price dropped by approximately 40%, moving from 2.38 Diamonds last week to 1.45 Diamonds. Although 300 new rare equipment collection entries were added in this update, it did not trigger an increase in demand for standard scrolls. Along with the new collections, recipes for +5 Rare Weapon/Armor Selection Chests were introduced. The expansion of alternative methods to acquire gear at set enhancement levels without direct enhancement likely weighed on scroll demand. Blessed Scrolls and Cursed Scrolls also remained flat or declined across most servers, snapping the upward trend in average prices seen in recent weeks. However, Lindel 5 saw increases in both Blessed and Cursed Scrolls. Accessory enhancement scrolls also saw price drops on most servers, but opposing trends emerged in select locations, such as Lindel 3 where prices actually rose. Supply of accessory enhancement scrolls appears constrained on certain servers, including Lindel 5.

Dungeon-Related Item Prices Tower of God Teleport Scrolls Turn Downward

Tower of God 3rd Floor Teleport Scrolls dropped in price by over 10% week-over-week on all surveyed servers except Lindel 3. The average market price fell roughly 25%, down from 154.17 Diamonds last week to 114.5 Diamonds. Unlike last week when Calteon and Lindel showed diverging trends, prices dropped across almost all servers this week. Conversely, Lindel 3 saw prices rise from 210 Diamonds to 240 Diamonds, recording the highest price among all surveyed servers. Average prices for 2nd Floor Teleport Scrolls also declined, though Calteon 3 experienced a slight increase, demonstrating that certain server prices held steady despite the general downtrend. Weathered Relics and Divine Shards, which rebounded last week, saw average prices fall once again. Divine Shards in particular dropped over 10% week-over-week on most servers, showing that last week's upward momentum was short-lived.

Dungeon Time Recharge Stone Prices Sky Island Time Recharge Stone Prices Surge with Regular Season Launch

Sky Island Time Recharge Stones, which more than doubled in price last week, saw their average price rise further this week. The average market price climbed from 187.4 Diamonds to 268.52 Diamonds, skyrocketing on Calteon 5 from 248 Diamonds last week to 598 Diamonds. Calteon 4 also recorded a more than twofold increase, illustrating particularly steep surges on specific servers. However, this week differed from last week's universal gains across all servers. Prices on Calteon 3 and Lindel 1 showed little deviation from previous levels, while Lindel 2 even experienced a drop. As Sky Island transitions into regular season matchmaking, player environments are diverging by server, making it necessary to observe whether this upward trajectory will persist. Following this patch, crafting Sky Island and Tower of God Time Recharge Stones using Seals of God became possible, but the two items showed divergent trends at the time of data collection. Unlike Sky Island, Tower of God Time Recharge Stones dropped in price across most servers. Sanctuary of Sky Arc and Inferno Temple recharge items also generally declined, while remaining difficult to find on the market in select servers, similar to last week.

Crafting Material Item Prices High-Grade Gems Continue Upward Trend; Wood and Leather Decline

In material prices, High-Grade Gems sustained their upward trend. The average price rose from 14.43 Diamonds last week to 16.71 Diamonds, climbing as high as 20 Diamonds on Calteon 3. However, growth varied across servers, with Calteon 2 actually seeing a decrease while Calteon 4 and Lindel 1 maintained previous prices. In contrast, High-Grade Wood and Leather prices fell on most servers. Mid-Grade materials also declined on many servers—primarily Iron, Wood, and Leather—meaning overall gains slowed outside of High-Grade Gems. While rare equipment collections were added, they failed to drive up prices across crafting materials as a whole. Common materials mostly declined as well. Common Leather dropped by over 10% week-over-week across all servers, and Common Wood and Cloth, which had rebounded last week, generally pulled back in price. Aside from Gem price increases on select servers, common material market prices appear to be stabilizing overall once again.
