you could always just, idk, not buy it then? farm it during event? go without? ive been here about 18 months and have never donated or used a dark weapon. if everyone had access to every item at all times then there would be no reason to look forward to events. sure the prices on em are insane, but you dont go to the Lamborghini dealership and tell them to lower their prices, youd go on craigslist and get a used Cadillac, just as badass in an affordable price range. the only reason the prices are that high is because people pay them. there are legit comparable items abound on this server, not to mention we all play for free. not looking for any rebuttals or drama just throwin in my perspective. play the game to have fun my dudes <3
