Inflation

The money sink is pretty bad. Go to dcave -> weapon goes to 0 -> go to rodoroc -> go back to dcave and so on. Mythics are considered ''Godly'' items sometimes, ones created by magic. How does a wand lose it's durability if it does not come into contact with any mob? You can't say that the ''magic'' inside runs out, as that is our mana.

 

I don't think this will fix the problem unless we do a hard reset of absolutely everything. Almost all players don't hold only money. Most people own several legendary items or collectibles that hold value, and the very richest players store value using one or several mythics. The rich will remain rich, the poor will remain poor, and everyone without five mythics will be mad because their hard earned quest emeralds will be gone permanently.

 

In a perfect Wynn, I'd agree with you, however, this game was heavily hit by a large number of LE duping. Most of the LE stayed in the game as no server roll backs were done when the duping was found out.

 

you may be right actually
A hard reset wouldn't bother me at all

 

Now now now...instead of having money sinks, hard resets or harsher deaths, why not we introduce a price ceiling?

A price ceiling is a regulation(usually government imposed) that sets a fixed price on how high a product can go. Sellers can't sell higher than the price ceiling-doing so breaks the trade laws.

Perhaps what we can implement here is a price ceiling for mythics. Different mythics will have different price ceilings, with the prices mostly determined by the particular mythic's usage, rarity, amount existing currently. For example, the price ceiling for Crusade Sabatons will be 1 stack of le, and Spring for 6 stacks of le.

This, of course, will be made an official rule until the economy stabilises(or for extended periods of time is need be). Sellers can't auction mythics higher than their price ceiling, buyers can't buy for more. All staff members will closely watch the Trade Market auctions for any rule breakers, with swift punishment imposed on those who sell mythics higher than their price ceiling.

On paper this looks like a possible idea, perhaps it might work.

 

I would probably take offers of 40 stacks for it, I don't care about profit on this one, I just wanna sell it to get my friends their le back before I disappear from the market for a while.

 

I miss the air cat ;w;

 

That is only a temporary solution

 

if angry players = no server,this would be really worse because everybody would hate to go to a blacksmith while in a dungeon because u fking weapon broke,and it wouldnt make mythics cheaper,mods should make a easier way to get them OR nerf them (plz dont make it Salted <3)

 

Here's an excellent video that goes over possible solutions:

As for money sinks, I think they are necessary, but they won't solve the problem. People will keep grinding no matter how many money sinks they are and besides, we don't play videogames just to pay bills.

 

Oh boy. If I had a dollar for every time that video has been posted before, I would have quite a few.

 

The idea of creating a money sink is good, but I really don’t like having to repair items.
I think instead off adding durability to items, there should be more gambling
Gambling = more people losing money , so more money sink.
They should make a new type of gamble like gambling unidentified and identified items, they should make a gambling similar to the horse gambling but instead people will put items in the inventory and mix them to (possibly) get a better one.
I will quickly write my idea here:
Unique+unique= 30% rare - 40% unique 30% normal item (cost 2eb)
Rare+rare+rare = 20% legendary - 50% rare 30% unique (cost 8eb)
Legend + legend + = 1% mythic , 99% legendary [cost : 32eb]
These gambles are going to be effectuables press to the “Gambling NPC “
Maybe prices should be higher but I’m not sure. If you like this idea you can insert it in your post

 

an interesting opinion. I'll add it in later, on mobile right now

 

Damn NO !!!
I played so much to get all the mythic i have, why i have to pay now for being "rich" with my efforts ???
This is the worst way to fix economy.

if i'm in combat and i forgot to fix my durability ? i have to die ? f**k no !

 

Low levels wouldn't be able to scrape that much money up to repair

 

Yeah uh no

Thats just fucking insane

 

imo economy is ok as it is, I started wynn when everyone already complained about inflation and else, and in the course of I think now 8 months, I got 35 stax of value, i'm known and I have never found a mythic!


But uh, i'm not an economy pro so ye

 

Thanks for all the suggestions. I'm back from camp now.

 

Now shouldn't this have been in General Suggestions?

 

He even specified that he wouldn't want it to be.
