DPS is massive but missing +level to projectiles.

Dude is shooting 2 hand maces in bolt form

Loads an additional bolt is dead on that gun, unfortunately. The base that would’ve benefited the most is the other wide gun that’s used for the thunder ammunition. Great flat damage but no proj skills+. You could try for a divine though. I could be off but just my read. GL

I want to go ahead and give this trade advice as well.

For gear (like crossbows) that aren’t being used by any of the popular or well known builds you will find it very difficult to get any good value unless you rolled something truly insane.

This is because of 2 main factors that in tandem make seemingly decent or pretty good items unsellable/practically worthless.

Most players follow the meta at least to some degree whether intentional or not. Obviously there are those who just follow the guides for the “best” builds which means you get a large amount of players all looking for extremely similar items. This means everyone trying to profit off all this demand will tailor their filters and strategies to maximize profit. This is how even for players who do their own niche builds find themselves still having choices influenced by the meta.

This system creates an environment where builds going off meta are squeezed from both sides as supply is extremely limited because for the few players who even bother picking up or rolling those items they find they can’t even sell what are normally pretty good rolls which discourages them from attempting to roll future similar drops.

This downward spiral leads to these strange pockets of the market where most of the listings are unbelievably low and the only items worth anything meaningful are near perfect rolls at obscene prices.

My friend quite literally thought I was trying to scam him when I told him his T9 flat phys +7 proj crossbow was only worth around 40 ex.

Bit of a long read but I hope this helps some of you all have a better understanding of how the market tends work and how you can use that knowledge to figure out general pricing trends.

Its both good and not good.

For grenades its good coz good base and high dmg, but its got no +lvl gems. So overall medicore.

For ammunition its good coz high dmg and extra bolt, but it has terrible reload time and no attack speed. So overall medicore.

So overall its medicore for both playstyles.

Thanks for coming to my tedTalk.

Ill just take this moment to make a PSA

If you aren’t familiar with crafting or crafting specific pieces of gear please do not yolo slam a vaal if the only reason is ??? Profit?

This had value as a crafting base and I probably would have reached out but now that option is gone

As is i don’t think it’s worth much.

Thanks for sharing your crafted item! This is a reminder to include the story of how (and optionally, why) you made the item; otherwise, we may have to remove your post.

if this xbow wasn’t vaal it will be worth more

Would be very good if it had +projectile levels. Not a lot of end game players using crossbows so it needs to be sharp to get any buyers.

It is good, and can help you do T15 waystones. But do continue, and you can find even better ones. Something that has + to levels or attack speed.

1 div tops i would say Plus skills is overweighted

This needs to have +5 projectile skills minimum. Otherwise it’s worthless
