Hey, I have around 13mil atm however I'm not battling at the moment, but plan to in the future so I want to buy one of either sword of skardsen or glittery faerie dust now, and plan to buy the second one later.

Could anyone give suggestions as to which one would be a better investment to buy first? Susceptibility to retirement wise, and possible amount of price rise after retirement? Because I think it would be better if I bought the one that would cost more in the long run first, instead of the most expensive one i can with the money now.

Any suggestions? thanks.

Of course SoS. It has been around for more than GFD.

If you plan on doing 1p, get SoS, if you plan on doing 2p get GFD. If you plan on doing both I would probably go with the GFD.

Not really about which i should get, because I'll be getting both, but which one would be harder to get in the long run, like susceptibility to retirement, supply, price rises after retirement etc.

Thanks for reply cutejohn291 I'll keep that in mind.

I'm pretty sure it was proven a long time ago that retirement occurs at least semi-randomly, so even though the SoS has been around longer it's not necessarily more likely to retire. However, if both retired, the Glittery Faerie Dust would see a much higher price increase for several reasons. One, it doesn't get nerfed by two defensive items that every battler carries (Ring of the Lost and Ghostkershield). Two, a lot of SoSs are floating around the market, and the Dust hasn't had anywhere near the time that it would need to catch up (and to be honest, it probably never will).

By and large, go with the Dust. Unless you're exclusively doing One Player, in which case you shouldn't really be looking at it at all (unless you have the cash to throw out the window for a "fun" weapon).
