A tip if your buying a vet ethereal...

**Solidchrome** · 23rd August 2007, 06:40 AM

I didnt realise that you cant use the veteran reward etheral mounts unless you have the gametime behind you. I bought one for 2.9 mil and I cant use it for 57 more months... :eusa_doh:

well consider it a wise investment for the price

**kingtony** · 23rd August 2007, 07:57 AM

your set up in 4 1/2 years think of it like stock that might be a rare when you can use it

Don't the vet reward items tell you in their description what age your account needs to be in order to use them???

Just says 2nd(3rd..whatever) veteran reward but doesnt specify what age your account needs to be.

Like merth and kingtony says...Its a good investment

There should be some warning on the ethereal's description before it lets you trade
You can however ride ONE ethereal, the Mondains legacy Charger of the fallen.
Not sure how much they go for, but they aren't dependant on account age.
Maybe you could trade with someone for one of those?

Good idea Adam..just one question..can they die like normal pets?

**merth** · 23rd August 2007, 08:55 AM

good call Ad however most ethys sell for far less than charger, at the price he paid my advice would be:

1. hold onto it til able to ride/ become a rare
2. or sell for actual worth( 5 yr ethy prolly sell for more like 4 to 5 mil I would think depending on shard)

No they can not die
