But Buzz Kill does not increase base damage, unlike Spoiled Strike. Buzz Kill is more like an elemental mod, but where the actuall effectiveness depends on the slash:not-slash ratio of the base damage. So its only real uses are replacing an elemental mod on highly slash-focused weapons and increasing the chance of getting slash procs.

The only reason people are asking so much plat is because it's an item which can only be obtained during a limited amount of time, and is absolutely awful to farm during that time. This heavily skews the supply:demand ratio to the point where its price far exceeds its practical value.
