TWIRP Minigame Indexes Report and Analysis (2008/03/03) TWIRP Report and Economic Analysis - Week of February 25, 2008

This final part of the TWIRP weekly report covers special indexes that are unique or otherwise don’t fit into other groups. For more details on them, please refer to TWIRP Special (Extra) Indexes; if you are new to TWIRP, please refer to the TWIRP Quick Guide before proceeding.

Discontinued Items Affordability (TWIRP-X-DISCa): 119.3 +2.7% p
Luxury Items Affordability (TWIRP-X-LUXa): 113.1 +2.4% p
Powerleveling Affordability (TWIRP-X-POWa): 96.9 -0.7% q

Key Items Affordability (TWIRP-X-KEY): 100.4 +1.2% p

High Alchemy Affordability (TWIRP-X-ALCHa): 232.0 +0.9% p

More trend continuation here, with luxury and discontinued items continuing to slowly increase in affordability as their prices drop. I think this is only the tip of the iceberg. Powerleveling was not helped by reductions in supply costs, since they came with reductions of finished good prices in most cases.

Crude Volatility Index (TWIRP-X-VOL): 445.0

Volatility was quite low this week. Upon closer inspection, I found that while many items did correct in price in notable ways, there were also some others that were surprisingly quiet. For example, both rune essence and pure essence were unchanged for the week.
