Globs of Ectoplasm are highly valued pieces of material, due to their rarity, and to the fact that they are used, along with Obsidian Shards, to craft Obsidian armor. They are often used as substitute currency for transactions exceeding 100 Platinum.

[edit] Notes

  • Since a player can only hold a maximum of 100Platinum at any one time, these have become a sort of additional currency, to facilitate trades or transfers of over 100Platinum. For example, something worth 100k + 20e would be worth 100Platinum plus 20 globs of ectoplasm. This derived system of trading proved very useful in the trading of very rare (and thus very expensive) weapons or minipets.
  • Ecto is an abbreviated term for Glob of Ectoplasm.

[edit] Trivia

  • Ectoplasm is a term coined to refer to a theoretical substance that is associated with the formation of ghosts or the remnants of a haunting.
