    Well, I just thought of one idea that hasn’t been ever proposed before. A crazy one that’s never been done before, but there’s no harm in saying it.

    Like I said before, the fundamental problem with inflation in MMOs is that the only way to get money is to create it. Well, what if players couldn’t create money? What if money was instead just circulated and created only by the devs?

    Now there are a ton of implications, like how would the money be tracked, how would the economy transition, how would mob drops and vendors work, etc. But I just wonder...
    You can’t get store items via in game currency. It’s part of EULA.

    You can’t have something buyable with real money that’s also buyable with in-game currency. It’s a bit bullshit if you ask me, but it’s part of the EULA, so

    "Hard currency is real money or anything that can be converted into real money, including, but not limited to, Bitcoins. Soft currency is available in-game only and has no real-world value. You may not sell soft currency for hard currency, neither separately or along with ranks as a single or recurring payout. This is regardless of what you can use the soft currency for." - Mojang

    This is what Mojang said about money. We don't have hard currency so it seems fine! We only have in-store items... Also you still can't trade the perks you get from the Rubies or the Rubies themselves

    This is cause the server is RNG based, 5k chests and 100k mobs seems to be the avg amount needed

    and the last one ... thats what yuno wants if I understood correctly.... to obtain this the rarity on mythics would need to be dropped to like 1 in 20k drops, instead of 1 in 140k
    ________________________________
    You didn't understood the EULA, easy to understand transition:

    You can't sell anything in-game that gives even a bit of advantage for irl money or bitcoins.

    Example:
    - You can't give diamonds for 10$
    - You can't give 100 emeralds for 3$
    - You can give an useless hat or weapon skin that gives no advantage whatsoever for 10000$

    Wouldn't that also affect the lower levels though? Or would repairing mythics (especially these) and higher level items, for example, cost significantly more money?

    Of course I know it's RNG but that's beside the point.

    Increase mythic drop rates because there is more demand for mythics but the supply of it isn't increasing.
