I Have A Theoretical Situation.

This is all theoretical, i want to know your thoughts on what you think would happen. I should not see a single "Never gonna happen" without some explanation."
Hello Wynncrafters alike, I had an idea today, what if Salted or other content team members changed the drop rate a little bit, favorable, or new players. Very subtle, no alarm. no one but Salted, Grian, and Jumla knowing. Slightly increased the drop rate for lower level players, like, players below a certain level, say 10 total levels, so no high level came back and get it too, got a tiny boost in emerald drop rate, maybe an extra emerald or two, to get them on track. Instead of the rich getting rich and the poor getting poorer, the rich will stay rich, but the poor can get there eventually thing.
Thoughts? Like i said, it's completely theoretical, just something that popped in my head.

 

but... we already got problems w/ dupuhhhhhhhs
and until we finduhh money sinkuhhs...... ye

 

the amount of run-on sentences... smh

 

not much would happen
we probably wouldn't even notice it if the change was this small

 

yeah ikr.

 

1. This kind of thread normally goes under the General Suggestions section, so try to be more careful where you post next time I guess?
2. I don't think that rich players make money by collecting normal emerald drops, most have shops where they sell legendary/rare/mythic items, among other things.
3. The number of emeralds that drop from mobs increases with level anyway, so I don't think this would do much other than disrupt early game balance.

 

I didn't know that,

 

No, because they aren't suggesting something, they're theorizing. Nowhere did they say they want this.

 

what's stopping the 1% from creating alts lmao

 

30 bucks for emeralds? I wouldn't do that.

 

This is an interesting theory. I, being a new player, would enjoy having some gear/currency stability. However, I am usually the kind of person that works really hard for it instead of it essentially being given to me. I like the idea though!

 

It'd be easier to delete a class and have a spare level 1-11 on your one account.

 

The Soul Point system already steadily increases in difficulty as you level up, I don't think this will change the economy much, and as others said this can be easily abused to grind low-leveled Legendaries.

You and I wouldn't, but never underestimate just how many are willing to do that, multiple times.

 

They would spend it on Zight money because I've informed everyone of its wonderful existance and how it needs a strong buff when Corkus comes out :).

 

If you love it so much, why is it misspelled here and in your title?

 

Thats why i said "Total Levels" so that wouldn't work.

 

It's spelled correctly :) I've always spelt it that way. Dont attack me on speling

 

If you've spelled it correctly, it's non-existant in game. We all assume that you mean zhight money, instead of zight money. Y'know, the currenchy from zhight island.

If that's not the case and you actually mean zight money.
Forget everything I said.

(Also, always doing something wrong doesn't justify it, if anything it's worse than normal. Since it's a habit instead of an average mistake.)

Almost nobody uses the emerald drops from mobs, anyway. (except for me) The main money influxes for players are quest rewards and selling gear to other players.

 

Noobs (unlike you, apparently) don't do that. They probably would rely on it until they realise it is better to use quest rewards and the market.
