Did the the Rose Clipping (pocket slot quest item) get massively buffed or something?
AH was flooded with over 30 cheap Rose Clippings (no not "Rose" item, actual clippings) and the price plummeted from ~250m to ~50mil.
Bought a whole bunch yesterday but AH is still packed with a whole bunch of cheap ones, so did the drop rate change? (duping?)
[Probs should have found out before mass buying. xd]

    they did buff the rose clipping earlier, and perhaps now too.

    For reference, any idea which patch/how long ago you mean by "earlier"?
    But like 3 groups of 10+ (bought them in groups on 10's where they were priced the same and listed around the same time) over ~24ish, seems a bit of an op buff.

    I believe their drop rate was only supposed to be raised in Reboot.

    They probably raised the drop rate since they didnt just raise nodestone and those items' base rate, they raised other "sought after" items.

    I've found 3 so far, nothing seems to be too out of the norm for me.

    I still don't understand the meaning behind this, but all I know is because of it, rose clippings are hella cheap now..

    Yeah the drop rate was suppose to be for Reboot only but every world got the drop rate increase apparently. They went from 150m each to 15m each in scania after the patch.

    So decided to try harvesting for the first time after the Tune Up update. Got 6 clippings with only like 50 fatigue. *sigh*
    RIP selling clippings for 400m.

    They are so common now I occasionally see them just laying on the ground when mining black rocks in ardentmill.
