I reckon you can put that flute down with the "Tattered girls cape" that you can come by later, as well.

Doesn't look too good for Gwen I reckon... heh.

Money CAN be a little bit easier to come by... you can buy 100 plat for $50 US apparently. There is that option, or you can do what my friend did, and wait until you find a superior rune and salvage it WITHOUT identifying it, then get to one of the last areas in the game and sell it to players whom enjoy playing PVP.

See, in order to effectively equip characters in PVP with good items (and especially runes) you need to unlock them in Role Playing mode. To unlock an item, you need to "find" it, or "identify" it yourself. Therefore, you cannot successfully unlock a "superior rune of xxx" by buying it.

This makes unidentified superior runes VERRRRRY rare. Anyway, back on track, my friend happened across a MONK superior rune. He went to one of the last areas in the game, and sold it for 80 Plat.

He single handedly could afford the guild hall for my guild. LOL.

So go find yourself one, son ;o)

Also - if you come across a NON - minor rune, and you don't want to "unlock" this skill for yourself, try selling it. It would be worth quite a bit more (in theory) than the same rune bought at a rune trader.

Wow. That was long. Hope it was helpful.
