"The economy is sh*t"

[Escorted]

Lgrade enhancing is still stupid expensive but people manage to get them so economy is lookin better

Your opinion of how good the economy is looking is based on a luxury item?

Also, why is it that you think an increase of money supply is beneficial when it leads to inflation? I can't think of an absurd fixed cost in this game that is not a luxury therefore there is no point in an increase of money supply.

Guild gems are money sinks, as are guild buffs.
And rdnls have become commonplace not a luxury item anymore, but rdnl is the next largest gold sink to idnl.
if our population was as big as it was in the beginning of 90 cap we'd have a lot more gold; the potential inflation is there but right now it's still lower than anticipated.

" no point in an increase of money supply" don't make me laugh. fucking lmao.

Conversation has been done to death

anyone with a brain that has been here since the very beginning knows why an increase in gold supply would be beneficial.

thankfully ED is somewhat intelligent and knows it's straight booty butt cheeks and will increase the overall gold generation with the gold pouch update. Spitting in the face of all these folks that enjoy slave labor kmmo gear treadmills

I'm not recommending deflation to the point where gold is worth so much resulting in l grades being impossible to enhance. I actually think the economy is about as good as it's going to get currently. So yes, there is no point in increase of money supply because the only reason why people cry about gold injection or need of inflation is because they're presumably too lazy to grind enough for the most valuable items in the game. I hope you're not advocating for EU style inflation because their player base reflects the outcome of what inflation to an idiotic level does.

Also, ILLbeURdeath don't put words in my mouth. I never said there is a current gold generation problem, I'm only questioning why people would want more.

Tbf u asked why I thought inflation would be better but all I said was having a larger population would generate more gold thru methods already implemented, I'll let that slide tho

[ILLbeURdeath]

I'm not saying that I have problems making gold, I think those that know me in game know I have no troubles making gold. Compared to last caps, yes indeed the gold generating content is quite lacking and has no variety (you either apple farm or buy gold to amass gold quickly). Fees have gone up but not the value of npc'able items to compensate. The gold dropped from nests/dungs/raids doesn't reflect the increase in fees as well. There are gold sinks everywhere...

Imagine 70 and 80 caps, we could literally run quests from either repeatable bot quests or commission quests as well as all the other forms of gold generation. Everybody had gold back then, the economy was much healthier, far more trading (trading is a good thing ) and noobs had a much more pleasant time getting acquainted with the game and gearing up (I am NOT advocating for the lazy players, I am simply offering another point of view). As I've said before, if they brought back just repeatable bot quests AND commission quests...NO ONE WOULD BE ABLE TO COMPLAIN THEN, NO ONE for I feel with just those two things implemented with what we have now, it would solve all of the problems people are complaining about (except the lazy players :P). Hopefully the rare stones added in gold pouches will help out, especially me muahahaha lol jk (c'mon merc army and make me dat gold xD).

In short, open up trading and bring back repeatable bot quests and commission quests and then I would wholeheartedly agree 100% that there is NO gold generating problem or... if the rare stones give us the supplemental income we all wish for .

It's really just lack of content and variety (you either apple farm or buy gold or join a big guild for the abundant talisman and grind DMR and/or dungs no life'ing the game. Final note, I don't agree that everyone should have to no life the game to acquire that which they desire but it shouldn't be handed to them either. Simply put, just add more ways of reaching that goal (that requires effort ofc).

People who think the economy is bad listen to FAKE news, SAD!

[Bubzie]

The economy is great~ not sure if u know this but inflation is awesome! Stamps/garnets/jellies going up in price! sellers are making a mint There are also more items to sell on the marketplace for gold, like Brilliant talisman essence from Granom nest, Nightmare talismans are good to solo cuz the pieces sell for like 30g each.

This system works better for a server of no lifers who have nothing better to do than to farm dungeons endlessly... WE AREN'T THOSE PEOPLE. We need a new system that WORKS for this region... Either raise the nest and dungeon gold... or bring out new systems that replace what Mezz and old systems took away when they were removed.

idk it seems people are managing ok.
