    Hey'll! Over the past few days, I decided to go work on the Black Market Guide for you all!

    This is for those who wanted to know how it works and just wanted an easier way to find out today's black market in-game, online here.

    So... I present to you:

    Black Market Guide (Version 1.14.7)

    You'll be able to find the link to this guide here and on the wiki page. Have fun reading!

    If you have any feedback on this guide feel free to send it here. If you have any other questions about the Black Market, you may reach out to any of the admins/Mute.

    Changes:
    = Added some more information to the About the Black Market Page.
    = Changed a few things with the List of Black Market Items Page.
    = Updated the links with the Past BMS Pages. Also did a significant update to the Past BMS - March 2020 page. This meant that I was able to find almost all of the past Black Market Sales for the month (with their prices unknown), with only 6 unknown.

    Removals:
    - None.

    I'll leave it there for now, apart from daily updates to Today's Black Market to be expected, you won't be seeing anything else added in until a later future update. It's going to take sometime to search through the January and February Past Black Market Sales that have happened. If anyone does have any information about them, feel free to post here and or message me on steam.

    sorry for the lack of update forum thread posts :(, became very busy with the Debuffer Class, so I had limited time to do these guide updates xD

    Since having reached Debuffer level 4 though, I decided it was time to go mostly inactive. Therefore I'll only now be active on mgftw VS and with other guide updates.

    + Added in all of the May 2020 dates, the only exceptions are the 12th and 21st May 2020 dates, for which i had no screenshots/prices of.
    + Added in the Black Market item Statistics Page. It's purpose is for giving detailed statistics of the frequency of the black market items and in terms of their price comparisons. Frequency Comparisons have only been done so far though.
    + Added in the Frequency Comparisons for February, March, April and May 2020 so far.

    Changes:
    = Updated the List of Black Market Items, now that it's been known that Master Crafter has been seen on sale in the Black Market. Have not seen any |<| Expired Flesh Eating Parasite though, so I do wonder why.
    = Updated Today's Black Market to reflect the 31st May 2020 Black Market Sale.
    = Updated the Past Black Market Sales Pages with added February 2020 sales and all of April 2020 sales. Also updated all the other Past Black Market Sales Monthly pages.

    Removals:
    - None.

    Guide updates may be slowed down for now this week. I've also decided however to now go back to working on the Usage of Buffs and Buff Sets Guide with its updates. It may be sometime before another post is done with major changes mentioned.

    Hope you guys enjoyed this update!

    + Added in a few of the July 2020 dates. You'll see more of the July dates get mentioned in a later changelog during this month.
    + Added in the Past Black Market Sales pages for both June and July so you can go see what was sold for any of the above dates added.

    Changes:
    = Updated the List of Black Market Items since the x2 Booster (1 Day) and x2 Booster (1 Week).
    = Updated Today's Black Market with the link to the online !cp page. Now anytime the Today's Black Market page does not get updated, you can go over to the link within the page instead to see what the actual black market for today is. This does not take into account any changes that may occur given certain dates or certain items being changed, etc.
    = Updated the Past Black Market Sales pages to now include June, updated the other months with the links to the month of June as well.
    = Updated the Black Market Item Frequency Comparison pages with the month of June. Other months have also been updated to include June as well.

    Removals:
    - None.

    Do look forward to the January black market dates being added here soon! till next time.

    Here's the monthly update for September!

    Black Market Guide Updated! (V1.7.18 -> V1.8.21)

    ...

    The following pages have been updated:
    About the Black Market
    List of Black Market Items
    Today's Black Market (2nd October 2020)
    Past Black Market Sales
    Past BMS | December 2019 | February | March | April | May | June | July | August | September 2020
    Black Market Item Frequency Comparison
    Black Market Item Frequency Comparison | December 2019 | February | March | April | May | June | July | August 2020

    The following pages have been added:
    Past BMS | 1st | 2nd | 3rd | 4th | 5th | 6th | 7th | 8th | 9th | 10th | 11th | 12th | 13th | 14th | 15th | 16th | 17th | 18th | 19th | 20th | 21st | 22nd | 23rd | 24th | 26th | 27th | 28th | 29th | 30th September 2020
    Past BMS | 1st | 2nd October 2020
    Black Market Item Frequency Comparison - September 2020

    Black Market Guide (Version 1.8.21)

    ...

    Additions:
    + Added in all of the September Past BMS dates. The 25th of September did not have a black market for that day due to all mgftw servers having been down at the time for maintenance.
    + Added in the Black Market Item Frequency Comparison page for September. Overall it felt quite similar to June in terms of some items. 1 difference being that there was a new record achieved of |<| Broken Flesh Prison Bar being on sale 12 times and there were similar numbers of rare crafting materials all close together.

    Changes:
    = Updated the About the Black Market page since the Double Down ability got introduced. This ability can help make life easier for you by making the black market items more affordable and have more value when you do sell them for cash towards a goal. You will need to gain the maximum amount of trust again in order to fully activate the ability, but its worth doing.
    = Updated the List of Black Market Items since the |<| Expired Flesh Eating Parasite got fixed to become buyable. It then first went on sale during the 1st of October.
    = Updated the Today's Black Market and made a note about the discount from the Double Down ability.
    = Updated the Past BMS and added on September.
    = Updated the Black Market Item Frequency Comparison and added on September.

    Removals:
    - None.

    See you guys for the next Black Market Guide update near Halloween! (just don't count on an event this year)

    Apologies for this update post being much later than usual, I had my own reasons to go back and update these guides anyway.

    Black Market Guide Updated! (V1.8.21 -> V1.12.3)

    The following pages have been updated:
    About the Black Market
    List of Black Market Items

    ...

    Additions:
    + Added in the October, November, December 2020, January, February 2021 Past BMS dates. Only 1 date had no prices during December 2020's Past BMS month.
    + Added in the Frequency Comparison pages for the above months but February 2021 as well.

    Changes:
    = Changed the way Past BMS dates and Frequency Comparison pages got displayed to now use spoilers. This makes it less time consuming to have to create pages.

    Removals:
    - None. but will probably remove the date pages in the future.

    See you guys at the end of the month with another update ^^
     
  13. thanks for the updates, appreciate your hard works :)

    The following pages have been added:
    Past Black Market Sale - March 2021
    Black Market Item Frequency Comparison - February 2021

    The following pages have been updated:
    List of Black Market Items
    Today's Black Market (1st March 2021)
    Past Black Market Sales
    Past BMS | December 2019 | January | February | March | April | May | June | July | August | September | October | November | December 2020 | January | February 2021
    Black Market Item Frequency Comparison
    Black Market Item Frequency Comparison - January 2021

    Black Market Guide (Version 1.12.12)

    ...

    Additions:
    + Added in the Past Black Market sale for March 2021. This page will have daily updates done to it throughout the month.
    + Added in the Frequency Comparison page for February 2021. It was quite unusual to see a large amount of (RED) CEDA Research Notes (7 times) being sold on the black market. The super precious box being sold for 6 times on the black market was also worth noting.

    Changes:
    = Changed the List of Black Market Items to add in the missing |<| common crafting materials that are buyable on the black market.
    = Updated the links for all the past BMS months (December 2019 - December 2020) to add in January 2021. This was done in case anyone wanted to see the later BMS dates from an earlier month.
    = Updated the frequency comparison page links.

    Removals:
    - None.

    See you guys at the end of the month for the next update! Please do look forward to it :)

    Went ahead and made guide optimizations to the Black Market Guide. Now finding things that you're looking for should be much easier to do now.

    Also did the black market item frequency comparison page for March, enjoy!

    Black Market Guide Updated! (V1.12.12) -> (V1.13.19)

    The following pages have been added:
    Past Black Market Sale - April 2021
    Black Market Item Frequency Comparison - March 2021
    Black Market Item Frequency Comparison - April 2021

    The following pages have been updated:
    All of the Past BMS pages.
    All of the Black Market Item Frequency Comparison pages.

    Black Market Guide (Version 1.13.19)

    ...

    Additions:
    + Added in the Past Black Market Sale for April 2021. Will update it as usual throughout the month.
    + Added in the Black Market Item Frequency Comparison for March 2021. Compared to January 2021, there was more of an even spread of items that were sold across the entire month. Otherwise nothing seemed really note worthy for this time around.
    + Added in the Black Market Item Frequency Comparison for April 2021. 1 new change that'll be happening compared to previous months is that now I'll be updating this page daily, alongside the Past Black Market Sale for that month. The reason why I've decided on this is so you guys can get an earlier look at the overall frequency comparison to see what items have been sold so far on the Black Market. Who knows if it'll change anything in the future but I just thought I'd try something new.

    Changes:
    = Updated the links for the Past Black Market Pages and Black Market Item Frequency Comparison Pages respectively. This meant removing one of the Back To page links and leaving only the Back to Main Guide Page link as the only remaining one. This was done mainly as part of guide optimization.

    Removals:
    - Removed the Today's Black Market, Past Black Market Sales (Page links) and Black Market Item Frequency Comparison (Page links) Pages. They're now listed as spoilers on the main guide page to make reaching them easier to do now.

    This is probably it for guide optimization for this guide. See you at the end of the month with another guide update post!

    Black Market Guide (Version 1.14.7)

    ...

    Additions:
    + Added in the Past Black Market Sale for May 2021. I'll try to update it as usual, but I might get lazy again :(

    Changes:
    = Decided not to bother updating the Black Market Item Frequency Comparison daily in April. As a result, I ended up updating this page at the end. This does mean that the Frequency Comparison Page for May will be done at the end of the month as well.
    = Updated the List of Black Market Items page to fix the buying black market items section. This was the section where the items were not highlighted properly with the right colours within spoilers. You should now be able to know the rarity of the black market items without any problem.
    = Updated the Past BMS links.

    While I'm still inactive for now, I wouldn't count out guide updates not being done. It's still slow as usual so I apologise in advance for any very late guide updates with the other guides. Anyways, see you guys at the end of the month/start of next month with another guide post.
