General Questions:GBs value and Trade over CS items??

[Tavlas]

Hey,I am new on KoL.Well not really new,I used to play 13 years ago on C-west and started it 2 days ago for nostalgia,I am thinking of maybe staying .
I got some questions that I would like to be answered if possible,I would really appreciate,I don't even know if this is the right place to ask but here it goes:
1).I Joined Hellsgarem.How is that server for english speaking people like me?
2) Is trading CS:GO items for GBs on a server,for example Hellsgarem,a thing?I mean is it possible,legit etc?
3) How much a GB on Hellsgarem would cost from a member of ko4life(a trustable one).

Thank you very much,if this is not the right category to post it,I am sorry,feel free to move it !

1.) the server has been dead for months, either play on cypher or play USKO instead.

2.) no any kind of trading that isnt in game items for in game items or in game money is not legally allowed, but it is done by most people anyways. ( which is the only reason this forum still exists today.
3.) I can't give you an exact estimate, but, last gb's i sold there I sold for $6 each ( $6 for 100m ), and that was going on 3 months ago or so

First of all thank you very much for your info!
Secondly,do you think it's worth starting on Cypher?I mean,are there english people there or/and are the items expensive to be average and be able to pk?
Thanks

English on both sides and it's pretty active.

Not to make an example out of you but this is like the epitome of English players joining servers and then quitting frequently.

It depends what you are looking for from the PK..

If you don't spend money, you'll never have the gear to pk against the top clans/players, simple as that.

Ardream is good for people with low gear but honestly unless you play during prime Turk time where there are other noobs, you won't have much fun in CZ.

Oh so cypher has active ardream players?

Hellsgarem is not as populated as Cypher because new people want to go to a crowded server, but we have a great community of players, and some good Karus Elmo english speaking clans. Cypher wouldnt be so populated if some of the new people would join Hells and build up that population. Money wise its the same, you will have to spend hard currency to advance your char, and its expensive. The safe route is the PUS for making GB, and its a 7 day wait before you can merch your PUS items. There are those who blackmarket GB at a premium, and at risk. Welcome back to KO and hope you enjoy your time. PS. U need to get Discord as alot of clans use it to communicate.

This is probably false, when i left HG and went to cypher items on HG were nearly DOUBLE the price of those same items on cypher.

As per usual this is uninformed BS, There is no nearly double, there are differences, but in truth it balances out, PUS item sell for more on Hells than on Cypher so there is the balance in that respect. Some items sell for more, and some for less over both servers. Its all on the seller, I sell high and try to buy low, as over the years I have found if you are patience you will get a good deal.

I will say this, with a populated server like Cypher there are many places to merch.... mora, ofc, and your home castle & eslant, where in Hells nobody merchs in Luff or Esl orc side. In that there are more possibilities to "earn" noah.

"uninformed" I've literally held symbols on both servers, and played both launches, and was on hellsgarem right before coming back to cypher. If anything I'm one of the more knowledgeable people about both servers combined at least population wise. You're playing a dead server, that's why we all left it and went to cypher, usko, or private servers.

As far as prices go, my exact words were " when I left HG prices were double that of cypher" I can log in and pm some people and ask prices now if you want to show you the difference? Rather than being an insufferable prick who thinks only their own warped perception of things is true, you should try being more humble as a new player to either server.

To original poster - Don't take in anything this idiot says as truth, go look for yourself. Unlike him I've played both servers rigorously. A quick 15 minute search will show you he just joined cypher on December 18th and then sold the little he had there ( 2 gbs) that he was already trading for hellsgarem stuff by Dec 31st. This means he NEVER had the level or items to ever even hit cz let alone see how pk was there.

He's went back and changed his posts trying to hide this but a lot of stuff that has been "quoted" is still there.

Since then he has started trying to convince people that hellsgarem is better, when in fact it has been dead for months now. The only people left are those who either just started and wanted a "cwest feel" and didnt realize server was dead, or people like Tidogg and his ProKSser clan who spent thousands and don't want to give up their items for a more active server.

PS: Don't let turkish people scare you away, this isn't 2008 anymore, the turks who couldn't speak english who were 15-17 at the time, are now nearly 30 years old, and most speak fluent enough english, if they don't speak fluent they have clan members who do that can translate.

insufferable prick.

Cwest was one of the "newer" servers that launched back in those days, not one of the older ones.
