Marketplace snipers ->failstacks?

Try bidding on items you really desire with the same character. Do not bid on any other items with that character, as it will build up “hidden bidding failstacks”. As soon as you win an item, you lose that failstack. So it makes sense not to waste your marketplace failstacks on easy to win items […]
