It goes without saying that wars = inflation. Inflation of everything, even things in the Hidden Tower. These spouts of inflation are followed by rapid deflation. From my history, I find the best items to stock up on during war time are things like purple sticky hands, prickly potions, glowing cauldrons, things that are necessary for many battlers but that are limited in supply. Codestones also inflate, but for you to make np buying codestones up and selling them off, it'll just take way too long, and by the time you move all of them the profit margin could have been gained in investing in other items. The problem is, that was for wars. This plot probably is NOT a war, so therefore I'm not gonna be in a hurry to go out investing in anything at all. *sits on yooyuball goal net shields*
