I know they're account bound and always will be, but assuming there were no account bindings on KVM weapons, how much do you think they would be worth? I've always wondered what the value of some of my KVM stuff would be, especially the stuff at +9 or higher. Granted yes, values would vary depending on the weapon, but just use your imaginations a bit and try to put together some price figures for the more powerful ones.

It depends on how much time it takes a witty person to get 2000 badges or points.
And events rewarding extra KVM (like 100 from the current lucky box) would punch a hole in the market as with other things so its hard to really know what it should be worth~

Cost-wise I'd go with 4-5m per 100KVM badges and throw in another 20 million getting it to +9 when Enriched is in season. But knowing the market, you'd get considerably less than that.

2 EMBs = 10 KVM badges

1 Weapon = 2000 KVM badges

2000 / 10 = 200 x 2 EMBs = 400 EMBs needed

400 x Average price of Erde, Solar Sword, other equips that can be turned in = Rough price of a Glorious Weapon

On Valk price is about 1.5m per EMB, so 400 x 1.5m = 600m

Good estimate. Although there is a possibility that the people who do God quests to get some extra KVM Badges would sell it a little cheaper. Not by much, though. Demand would still be too high for a major market undercut.

Even with the possible seals-spamming, I'd imagine it would still be very expensive due to how long it takes to do it with normal KVM farming at battlegrounds (2000 kvm = 2000 minutes or more, = 33+ hours). It just means the seals would get snatched up even faster than they currently do... seal 1 would roll in under 30 minutes or something crazy.

Yep, that's why I said not by much. Lol, it's funny how we're discussing this like they'll ever implement it xD

There was a bug or something the first time they put KVM badges in Lucky Boxes last year, and some people loaded their vending carts with them. You still see them vending periodically for about 500k per badge.

If the accounts are connected via warpportal, you can send in a ticket asking for normally account-bound items to be transferred to another account.

Seal quest 1 gives 80 KVM badges. Using 75 reset stones will get you 2000 KVM for a weapon.
Reset stone prices are around 3mil on ymir and valk, so it's 200 to 250m per KVM weapon.
Cost goes down if you do more than one seal quest before resetting, but time investment goes up.

i dont think they worth more than 300m, since you can get badges from lucky boxes too, emb from turnins, god item quests, and also some bg
