TWIRP Item Values (2008/03/10) TWIRP Weekly Winners and Losers (2008/03/10)

In this subsection I describe the results of the highest-level TWIRP composite indexes, as well as the player profiles that illustrate the impact of item price changes on different player types. For more details on these indexes, please see TWIRP Composite Indexes and TWIRP Player Profile Indexes; if you are not familiar with TWIRP as a whole, please refer to the TWIRP Quick Guide before proceeding.

Composite Indexes

Global Composite Yield (TWIRP): 95.0 -1.4% q
Global Composite Affordability (TWIRPa): 98.1 -1.3% q
Global Composite Income (TWIRPi): 96.9 -0.1% q

Skill Composite Yield (TWIRP-S): 99.2 +0.4% p
Combat Composite Yield (TWIRP-C): 90.5 -3.1% q

As I said in the overview, where last week was a reversal of the prior week’s trends, this week is a “reversal of the reversal”. Note the big slump in TWIRP-C, in particular. Skilling bucked the trend, but only barely.

Player Profile Indexes

Pure Skiller Profile Yield (TWIRP-P-SKILy): 99.5 +0.4% p
PvM Profile Yield (TWIRP-P-PVMy): 90.5 -3.0% q
PvP Profile Affordability (TWIRP-P-PVPa): 98.2 -2.0% q
Balanced Profile Yield (TWIRP-P-BALy): 95.3 -1.2% q

Again, these results mirror those of the main composites. It’s a good time to be working on certain non-combat skills.
