How much do Zakum Runs/Helms cost these days?

Back in the day ZHelms and Scissors didn't exist hence ZHelms were not directly trade-able however...

They are today, so how much do ZHelms cost? [i]Note[/i], I'm not talking about the chaos one.

I know they vary from server to server, but I'm sure we can work out an average, so if you don't know a general price ranger perhaps you can tell me how much they cost on your server.

Also, is buying the ZHelm cheaper or buying the run?
Not that it should vary too much anyway.

Thanks in advance.

Runs are free, helms are depending on the nx ratio.

If you were in Broa I would have got you a Zhelm for free.

You could probably find someone to take you on a run for free

@valkyr: Most people will take you on runs for free. Zhelms from the fm generally cost around 100-150 mil because they have to pay for the karma.

Thanks a lot for the support and help guys!

I really appreciate it.

I'm currently on and slowly progressing through the cave of trial, lol.

Hopefully I can start the ump Quest soon .

Edit: I added everyone who was interested in helping.
Edit2: @Management: I'm not sure what a scar helm is, thanks for the offer but I think a Zak helm will do for now.
Edit3: Oh a Scarlion helm. Right, yeah I think a Zak helm will still do for now, thanks a lot for the offer though!

When I used to host runs, I used to charge an Eye of Fire for the summoning, but that's about it. The entire loot was free. Get a few friends, a passerby to help you.

I usually give runs for free, they just need to use their EoF. I do usually ask for a "donation" for the gingers I use, and I get like 5~10m most of the time.

[quote=marchiris]cus ppl get sissors from logout event or use maplepoint
its not worth trying to sell nx via sissors

ive nvr run into ppl charging for zrun. they'll get no business.[/quote]

Nx via scissors is probably the best way to go by selling zhelms or scar/tag.
Also, runs aren't free all the time.

Plus some people charge for runs besides for the EoF depends on the person.

Don't bother paying for a zrun since there's alot of people that would just give you a zrun for free.
zakum is really weak now alot of people including myself can solo in under 20minutes. and even if your not able to solo in under 20minutes if you get together a few people on a run its easily manageable.

If anyone in scania needs a normal Zakum helm, they're welcome to chat me in-game. I do free runs.
Only requirement is that you did the pre-quests.

Helms in windia average from 110~180mil (depending usually on pot/stats). never seen it below 100. Runs are usually 10mil if its one of those arranged things but usually like most people said, donate an EoF or contribute and you may get in free. Looting rules may prohibit your free looting desires however and acquiring exactly what you want isn't
"free" persay, without connections or the ability to solo/duo zakum.

Z-runs are usually free, so long as you have completed the pre-quests.

Helms; 50-100 mill.

I think most people who can solo will take you on a run as long as you summon zak

I get free runs, my brother's friends helped me do the prequest at lvl 56. And i get free runs from anyone who is kind. I just use my eye of fire as a way of payment.

if you have a guild or buddies then free, haven't seen anyone pay for a run in months, probably years.

Runs are definitely cheaper due to not having to use NX to make it trade-able
