Happy Halloween from the Market desk. The scariest chart of the day belongs to a humble gnome cocktail ingredient.
Limes go sour
80 gp · ▼ 76.6% in 24h · ▼ 80.1% in 7d · 207,941 traded (16.64M gp) · 3.5× usual volume
Limes fell off a cliff today, and every unusual signal we track fired at once: a big daily drop, a big weekly drop, a volume spike and a blown-out spread. That wide spread means buyers and sellers are far apart, so the price is still settling. Limes are a cheap shop and stall item used in gnome cocktails and compost, and no recent news post or hotfix touches them, so the cause isn’t clear yet.
Amulets of water surge
256.8K gp · ▲ 87.8% in 24h · ▲ 45.9% in 7d · 164 traded (22.43M gp)
The amulet of water nearly doubled in a day. It’s the water piece of the elemental amulet set, crafted at the Water Altar and prized for boosting water spells. It arrived back in September, and nothing in the last few weeks of news changes it, so today’s jump has no clear cause yet.
Rings of pursuit on the run
2,625 gp · ▲ 56% in 24h · ▲ 77.1% in 7d · 20,869 traded (35.12M gp)
Rings of pursuit kept climbing on steady, real trading, with most of the week’s gain landing today. It’s the second cheap ring in two days to have a big run, after recoil rings yesterday. No update mentions the ring or anything that uses it, so we can’t say why yet.
The Obligator keeps slipping
2.876B gp · ▼ 7.6% in 24h · ▼ 24.9% in 7d · 731 traded (2.102T gp)
The Fractured Archive’s megarare dropped again and moved more gp than anything else on the Exchange, on more trading than usual. This week’s TFA tweaks gave it a new model and icon and reworked how deaths affect group unique chances. Neither change obviously explains the slide, so this looks like a launch-week price still finding its level.

What to watch
Watch whether limes find a floor once that spread closes, and whether the ring run spreads to other cheap jewellery. The Halloween event runs into November.
