Refined Horse Breeding

This is something that's been on my mind for awhile. I'm tired of spending lots of le's trying to get a higher tier horse only to be disappointed time and time again. The system needs to be redesigned a bit. And I have an idea as to how to do that.
The first way the horse breeding should be refined is to add more horse merchants into the game, according to area level. For instance the current horse merchant sells only brown horses. a merchant in Cinfras might sell tier 2 or tier 3 horses. And a merchant in Corkus would sell tier four horses.

The other way to refine the system is to modify the current breeding mechanics slightly. I don't like how the whole system is rng. I know from experience that this system is extremely debilitating to use, and I was only trying to get a black horse. So here is my idea. Modify the chance of getting a better horse according to the level of the horse you have. example, breeding a 1/10 brown horse with a 1/10 brown horse would give you the normal 20% chance of getting a better horse. But with this change a 10/10 brown horse bred with a 10/10 brown horse would give you a 90-100% chance of getting a better horse. This would still take time and feel rewarding to players, but it wouldn't cost as much emeralds, and these emeralds the players can use for buying other equipment and trading with other players.

Not sure if I'm the only one who feels this way but I think this would be a simple fix to the problem without having to make any major changes to the game.

 

Selling Tier four horses may not be such a bad idea. If you make a merchant accept items around 60 LE in price, might help the economy a bit, taking some LE away from players.

Do I need to quote the @SilverMirror post about item inflation vs currency inflation

 

That' okay, I just realized. How that wouldn't work.

 

As long as they sell the horses for more than the average breeding prices it should be ok

 

I agree with yuno. However, I'd rather have the first suggestion, where level would affect the chance. I think 90% is too high, but that's up to the devs if they decide to add this.

 

I don't mind the idea of the scale-with-level chance thingy but i still think no matter what, the 'Upgrading' chance should not ever go above like 40% chance to get a black and it should still be the current 20% for whites (to keep the gambling element)

With the whole buying thing i have to agree with God-Yuno and the sale price would have to be atleast say 20-30% higher then player market price.

Honestly i don't reckon the horse system should be reworked (except horse merchant should accept le) as right now Horses are a major money sink and were probably the biggest money sink because Highlord-God-Jp mostly fixed guilds.

Atm horses pricing is one of the main things keeping the economy slightly stable (lol wot wynncraft economy stable?) and with the whole loot bonus and item rebalancing.... shit is about to go out the window.

ADD POOOL

 

Wouldn't you be able to rework the horse system the way you guys said if you would add the idea of a tier 5 horse, if that's even a possibility, or would that be too much? If you would add tier 5, the money sink /economy problem would be solved even with the breeding changes mentioned, no?

 

2nd on Grading list, I really a part of this idea.

 

This would anger the people who took the time money and risk breeding their own white horses. If they sold for 128 LE which is a small amount more than what it takes on average, I would be fine however no one would buy it.

 

I like this suggestion.
I never had luck with Horse breeding

 

you think a peace agreement will piss off all of the soldiers that died in the war?
lets just improve this broken system and be done with it

 

This would be closer to a government halfing the price of many people's investments
*Edit* I'm perfectly okay with a modified change to the tier up chance when breeding 10/10 or 30/30 horses but just directly adding merchants that sell t4 horses would just ruin the economy for them
