I'm surprised, how can it be that the prices in softcore are higher than the prices in hardcore? There is more danger for your own character and yet the balance between SC and HC has completely collapsed, can someone explain why?

Ber is cheaper at hc then sc ?! This crazy

Yeah, they are pretty much the same for SC and HC. Vex, Ber, Jah, …

Weird.

Maybe more noobies came for the DLC. They play SC. But botters didn’t account for that and their HC to SC bots ratio is too high?

No pvp in hc so the demand for perfect craft is low

Exactly .. softcore likes both pvm and pvp gear

Hc players are 95% pvm

This has been true since the beginning of d2r, but the prices in HC have never been as low as they are in SC.

Not talking about crazy rares, but regular stuff: runes and such.
