    so uve got a 1/40 white horse, and that's worth around 90-100LE. A 40/40 white is worth around 115-125. To level up a horse, u need to ride it around. Secondhand things are usually worth less than new things. Then why is a 40/40, which must have been ridden around before, so is secondhand, be more expensive?

    That's because people are lazy and don't want to put work into leveling horses themselves.

    I think your argument is flawed in this context. Secondhand things are usually worth less because they perform their intended purpose to a lower effectiveness than a new one. Like a hand-me-down laptop is worn down and may perform slower. A used shirt may have a few holes or stains.

    A 40/40 is objectively better because it's faster; there's no relative loss to a 1/40 "new" one.

    Also yeah you really can't compare wynnconomy to IRL, we're pretty weird :p

    Market prices right now:
    1/40 ~80le
    40/40 ~90le

    You're also equivocating a virtual economy to a real life economy where the concepts of "second hand usage" don't exist because as @wrxryuu said, the quality cannot deteriorate.

    Not only what everyone mentioned above but... old timers x) The worth of those rises as well with time passing... and i mean a 40/40 horse is already pretty old °O°

    To expand upon this in real life terms; a horse would not get slower or worse in quality after getting loads of exercise and training. It would become stronger and more efficient, just like people working out.
    Compare a new-born foal to a full-grown horse; the horse is a lot faster, because it's older, stronger, and has had more experience. This is a similar case.

    In other words; the horse isn't second-hand, it's a veteran.

    the 1/40 is like buying a newborn horse, it isn't that good compared to a 40/40 that is in the peak of its performance

    Yeah. I think horses should just die after a while. You know, they should get a durability bar. Immortal horses really break my immersion.

    That would probably piss a lot of people off, when they're white horses die, but it'd also be a decent money sink. Expanding the horse system could be useful, though it's fine as is.

    that's too realistic and annoying. horses cost too much for it to work (lowering the prices might make it work tho).

    You know what is more logical?

    • boat stacks
    • cubical aliens that conventionaly are named with the same frist two letters as the game
    • magic
    • mages being weak ingame but gods in lore
    • flying ships without the ability to protect themselves
    • gateway island exsiting
    • the void capable of hosting life
    • every wynnexcavation quest
    • Dern
    would you like me to continue?

    And yet curiously, everything conforms to a rigid, mechanical, quantifiable, and tangible set of statistics.

    Strange, wouldn't you say, unless this all were some kind of game...?
