World A Way To Fix The Economy.

I have a great idea. Actually, multiple great ideas.

1) Emerald storage

With this, whenever a player gets emeralds, they are put into their storage. The catch? Only up to 10 stacks of le can be stored inside. Since players could never have more than 10 stacks, the prices of mythics and such would drop tremendously. If a player gets more emeralds than what's in their storage, those extra emeralds are put into a temporary storage. As soon as there is room, emeralds in the temp. storage are moved to the main storage. Also, emeralds cannot be drawn from the temp. storage, only the main one.

Basically, it's a wallet.

2) Change mythic drop chance

Mythics are the main cause of inflation, so raising their drop chance (for example, making it 0.0000010% instead of 0.0000007%) would reduce their price. This would, however, cause other problems, so the drop chance would go back to normal once the economy was fixed.

3) Emerald flush

Basically, everyone's emeralds are deleted. No money, no inflation. I'm thinking this may include giving every player 32EB as compensation, to reduce rage levels, but that's up to the devs.

4) Scam deals

Sometimes, a merchant will over/underprice an item, so you lose money from the deal. Any merchant can scam you, including the Identifier. It will be impossible to tell if the deal is a scam or not, because the change in price will occur only when the deal is accepted. Also, the chance of a scam increases depending on your current funds, so rich people will lose more. If that is not possible, the chance can be based on level.

Hopefully, at least one of these ideas is good.

Wait wait wait. So for number 3 you mean that emeralds are deleted? That breaks the economy more in my opinion

But no one will have money, so everything will be cheap. It'll be just like the good ol' days, before Gavel.

I think the best way to (maybe) fix the economy would be to delete everyone's emeralds then incorperate set prices for items based on rarity, level, and identification quality.

It will break the econemy because all prices are reset, and meaningless. The current econemy will be moot, and scams would pop up everywhere. White horses would be more expensive. Mythics would be cheaper (Horse breeding takes lots of money which has just been deleted) (Players already have mythics and need emeralds)

This would be better than just deleting, but still like I said above, there would be no idea on what prices are for what items. And Players would probably pay ridiculously high prices for items, and scams would pop up

For the first time in my life, I'm going to disagree with everyone posting that this is a terrible idea.

The idea of a 10-stack cap, or something similar, would work. It would take some time, and testing, but I do think it'd work.

as for everything else, ignore the first sentence in this post; they suck

I actually really like #4. Perhaps merchants in poorer towns like Olux could scam you more than ones in like Llevigar?

AncientTemplar · Nov 24, 2016

The only way to fix the economy is full reseting all players

I said "and incorperate set prices for items based on rarity, level, and identification quality" I meant for this to be decided by the game.

MasterJPixel · Nov 24, 2016

I only agree with/support 1 and 2. The others will just make people ragequit forever.

No. Just no.

I love 1 and 2 but 3 can cause economic chaos while 4 seems ok in some case or just use it for shady NPCs.

Thanks for all the support!

Issue with #1, is that I know people with up to 10 minecraft accounts, so they could hold 100 stacks

1. This makes a huge disparity of money between levels, since you can easily achieve 1 stack at level 70. Also, there won't be any point in selling mythics, since 1 stack is nothing to a lot of people.

2. Reducing drop chance will reduce mycthic prices? No way. If you know the principles of supply and demand, you should know that if supply goes down whilst demand stays the same, prices will surge.

3. Although this idea is the best of the four, it will upset every player who has spent hundreds of hours questing and selling items. Think about it from a real life perspective, do you think wealthy people will be willing to give up all of their luxury items and lifestyle? Additionally, this will decrease player base by quite a bit.

4. Are you talking about item buyers? They are really only useful for early levels. The amount of money you can earn from selling junk is futile at higher levels.

Decided by game will really make trading less useful and the trade market and auctions less useful
