Prices on some researched/dropped spells are fluctuating wildly.
I've sold a couple copies of this spell at 4kpp. If I'm setting up my trader and see people pricing this very low, I'll sit on my copy and sell it another time.
If one gets a spell as a drop, whatever they get for it is pure profit. When someone has researched it, it's entirely possible they had to buy at least one of the components, so there's an investment to recoup. It seems to me that people are more interested in dumping dropped spells quickly and not checking prices.
There's nothing wrong with going after the quick sale. I'm just letting researchers know the "standard price" can fluxuate widely from day to day. Check your prices against the bazaar before going into trader mode.

"God created man from a handful of dust, and he created woman from that man's rib. And these two together were so stupid that they weren't on the planet five minutes when they managed to get a curse put on all future generations. Nice work." Pat Condell
The price on CanniIV has recently dropped to less than half of what they cost before Christmas. Where I sold one for 14k in november(? I think ?), the price now lies down at 5k on Mith-Marr. You might even get it lower if you bargin a bit...

My partner - tezkilya is doing the happy canni dance. On Mith Marr this goes for 12,500pp to 14,000pp. She found it today for 250pp in the bazaar. She's cannidancing herself to death in happiness.

Is it just my bad maths, or is this actually a less favourable ratio than Cannibalize 3?
Yes this is very slightly less hp efficient than CanIII which in turn is less hp efficient than CanII.
What you are paying for here is not hp to mana efficiency but time efficiency (as you are getting about twice as much mana in the same time).

It doesn't matter.
Here's why...
Canni III gives you 42 mana for 74 of your hard earned hitpoints. This is a ratio of .57 mana for every hitpoint.
Canni IV give you 82 mana for 148 of your hard earned hitpoints. This is a ratio of .55 mana for every hitpoint.
So yes, the mana to hitpoint ratio for Canni III is actually better than the ratio for Canni IV, but the upgrade with Canni IV is the difference in "How much mana right now". To get those 2 more mana using Canni III, you have to hit the button twice. What's wrong with this, you say? If you're buffing, slowing, spot healing, DoTing, occassionally nuking, rooting runners/adds, etc, do you want to have to wait for the button to cycle for 84 mana? Or would you rather get 82 of it *right now*?
Yeah, me too.

Could anyone tell me where these words drop? I need them to get Canni IV researched.
Kelorak'Dar (or however it's spelled), the dragon in the water of Cobalt Scar, dropped this spell for me.
