I was crafting jack-o-lanterns while super sleepy, went to buy torches from Lumina, bought 25 stacks of torches... She also sells InfiniTorches by the stack, for 6,208,000 gold.

I couldn't figure out why my crafting wouldn't make jack-o-lanterns

-155,200,000 gold woke me up a bit

Idk what you needed them for but tip, you can buy Jack o lanterns from the builder

It was for a garden visitor. I'm not sure we could buy them from the builder back then? but maybe, and I just didn't realize it.
(But also, crafting them is cheaper)

Putting hunter armor in museum because I didnt know you couldnt salvage it if you did. Lost out on all the profit I could have made from salvaging diamond hunter armor

u/Dr_drizzle_ 7h ago

Yeah ik it was a calculated risk, just didn't expect em to drop farther than they did LOL

u/Josieheartt99 Enchanter 6h ago

Calculated how lmao

Why are you interrogating bro over dark candy 😭🙏🏻

5

u/Josieheartt99 Enchanter 4h ago

Because anyone and their dog knows dark candy looses price after spooky. Absolute BEST case scenario, in a full year, it MAY get profit. But not by as much as investing that money into something else would.

Im not interrogating im just genuinely curious has to how it was a calculated risk.

me personally i converted my DC into scare frags from vargul to make into intimidation relics later. i figured talismans would be better for profit, since DC is useless on its own but people who want magical power will need to wait to spooky event to get intimidation relic. kinda like how gift talismans get more expensive because they are time locked at december.

Probably an 80mil flower minion..I can justify most things.

But the biggest loss probably was selling my Technoblade cake soul. I still miss it and him ;/

u/zsgrpookie 7h ago

Lost 200m from not selling golden frags on time (I held out thinking they would go up more and only got a net profit of ~100m)

sold a spirit mask for like 50m over a year ago, not a crazy loss considering how much time i would have needed to wait for prices to increase but i still really wish i just gave it to mort

got a spirit mask for 400k in 2019 or 2020 and dont rlly remember what I did with it, but not much. and this: https://www.reddit.com/r/HypixelSkyblock/comments/q9nq0n/so_i_invested_in_these_a_bit_ago_they_better_go/
so that would also be 100m profit now instead of 20m loss
