This has undoubtedly been the single best VU ever for looting items. I don't understand why more people didn't take advantage of it. I can understand people at a certain level would battle to kill most of the mobs that dropped tons of shoes; but any team of 3 people with ML-35s or similar could have made an easy 5K PED each of markup on Boar shoes alone.
Also, if you got a Falx team together early, you would have been able to sell the first few pairs for 1k+, even 1.5k+. And believe me, they were dropping a
lot. With not that many people hunting Falx, they still dropped around 200 pairs.
And Wormie, you could just check auction history on items in auction to learn which shoes are dropping the most.
Even without my Shadow and Angel loots (those are lucky drops IMO), I could have paid for shoes for all my armour sets, and still had way more than enough for paying for PoE if
MA had made another decision of what to do with them.
There were very many opportunities this VU for everyone. Ambu had a few days of dropping a lot of Tbird, Hispis dropping Viking, etc. Even Gremlin Shoes off Bristles. If you watched things carefully enough and hunted them intensely when they started dropping them regularly, you could have made a packet.
DISCLAIMER: I don't for one second imply that this was handled perfectly. I think
MA should only made Shoes necessary around 9.3. That would have given people ample time for acquiring their shoes.
