Expect to spend pgf range of 30-35. And if using it on a slicer its rl's 3 50s or better as well for performance in mind or your stone was wasted. Or at least for sure 50 hit and a good single %.
Is baton as good as those weapons though? Maybe sometimes. It has some traits to it that keeps it relevent at least to keep its spot as a mini uber.
It has a perk of doing the most overall slicer damage w/o any side affects, with boosted range, and with some utility in mind.
If you are fleshy you really should be using a sof for one of the weapon spots (or s-rank demon but meh, your choice there) and really a hell s-rank is also worth a spot as well. So the spot where baton fits are in group fighting with dob and charge/spirit and group disables with arrest s-rank. Confuse traps are better than baton for groups imo, so droids I feel don't have much reason to use it over arrest s-rank.
Keep in mind It can't do as much damage as the costing disks, but baton beats them all on range, is at least close to charge/spirit in damage, and doesnt have as much risk as dob's just better damage. it lets you build up pb easier cause of this. arrest disables a group better but has a bit less range and damage than baton.
This is still a good weapon at least.

Pretty sure I haven't seen it go for that 25, mine itself was 30 and I've seen others go for around that as well. The lowest I've seen was 27.
As for why they aren't sold in a while. The rock itself is a bit annoying to find cause the true odds of it being found are about 1/11,000 from a ape that will fling a high level megid at you if given the chance from normal ones that attempt to shock you if you take one step away from them.
And while the rewards and perks from the areas aren't bad per say cause in one area you can find the rock has: sacred cloth, g/battle, dob, g/mind...inferno bazooka...for kind of cool item I guess, in the easiest area in the game or now you have a 2nd place to hunt, which has flowen's sword, dob x2, rambling may, g/tech...crimson coat...for kind of cool item, but it is in the most boring area in the game. Sadly both areas having somewhat ok drops isn't enough when other ids for the area chances are have better stuff and rainbow baton is sort of in the same boat as stuff like guardianna, gal wind, and yunchang (in that they are undervalued).

The biggest problem is you still are looking for an item with a 1/11,000 drop rate that only shows up on 1 id in now 2 areas. Frozen shooters can make quick bucks for even hitless ones and one with the right % gets you bank, and they are only a 1/1024 drop rate and now show up on 5 ids total. Viridia's ep2 FS is now even linked with one of its own id rare only: NUG-2000 Bazooka so if there is any quest that has beldra and apes if someone is for some reason hunting NUG-2000 they can at least hunt FS as well on Viridia. And sadly this isn't the only area where it is out shined hunt wise.
For Forest:
-purple FS: sacred cloth, g/arm, lavis cannon lol...
-green FS: star amplifier (make bright circle and in this case it drops from normal apes), rainov-5 from boss.
-oran syncesta (same odds as MSI): star amplifier, flowen's sword (granted from red wolf), twin chakram (unreduced dark that any class can use iirc).
Yes this thing is found in other areas and easier in them but it is here as well.
-blue, HP: holy ray from dragon, sadly not the best hunt, but the idea of an uber hunt in an easy area does lure people here for it if nothing else.
-yellow FS: agito...yeah item wise not much to find besides FS, but 1/1024 isn't bad odds and FS being here along makes it an ID people will hunt.
-white FS: dob, flowen's sword...cure/freeze...
-skyly: alone has Flowen's Sword and g/arm, but chances are a skyly in forest is running for a TTF or something.
For Temple:
-Viridia FS like I already said. The thought of an item unique to the ID and FS might be enough to push people to hunt here more.
-Pinkal: Berdysh, vivienne, rambling may, aura field. 1st 3 are all from rare foes at a 1/2 rate.
-oran syncesta (again same odds as msi): aura field, g/hp, brightness circle
-white: dobx2, rambling may
Not as many temple hunts to get in the way of hunting red as there are forests, but still.

I got mine for 25....or 27. Can't remember.
But they are harder to find now. When I got mine at 25 there were a few players sitting on them for ages. Now there's no supply. I'd expect 35pd for this.

ty, and really the sad thing is this baton's base 50% is better IMO than arrest j-cutter (in the hands of a non-cast, so it is better than an s-rank, casts in general have confuse traps so meh can't really argue about them there) and in general is packing an acceptable amount of power as well even if you can't zerk or charge with it. It having buffed range does help a lot IMO as well.
But yeah, its rare cause other things are around that are:
-A. worth hunting more cause frozen shooters are sort of necessary equipment for RA and 10x easier to find
-B. sort of has stuff that can do its role but might be easier to get (s-ranks)
-C. is out damaged by charge and dob for that role and people don't wanna factor in the extra range this sucker has.
Its worth a spot if you have it though IMO.
