About running dungeons and skirmishes, right now, you can not even get 5 players together for some skirmish run anymore... any Devs would like to step forward and fill those empty slots, so that we can actually make those runs to get rAD/seals?
The queue seems barren lately. I have tank, heal, and dps toons. I usually try queuing all my toons thinking the queue should pop immediately for one of them. But sadly I still end up waiting in the queue.
I'm not asking to get something for free or standing around in PE, but there should be viable options to make rAD within playing the game.
Campaign, daily and story quests should reward the player with rAD acording to his level. That would at least give us some rAD to play for, while we're waiting for a skirmish or dungeon run with enough players on board...
I do believe in killing the messenger...
Want to know why?
Because it sends a message!

However, that does not make up for the 5 steps in the wrong direction. You're still a little off course so keep making these positive moves and our faith in the developers will start to be restored.
They were still on grace from Mod 6. You have more faith than I. This is 2 major game-breaking upsets this year in addition to the hundreds of undocumented rules changes from the weekly patches. NW is a VERY unstable place.

Right. In case you hadn't been paying attention, the goal wasn't to make upgrading Rank 10+ enchantments cheaper, it was to make upgrading Rank 9 or less enchantments cheaper.

That, and artifacts.
I was assuming that a "superior" version would be worth more then a "greater" version. i.e What required 5 GMoPs would require 2 or 3 SMoPs.
I went to upgrade my perfect lifedrinker that used to cost 5 greater marks of potency at 100k for a 500k total. Now, it costs 5 superior marks of potency at 100k for a 500k total. The difference in cost=0. Good job.
indeed this was a pretty low move

It's not a low move, they stated quite clearly what the costs would be.
They wanted to make it easier for the average player to get to rank 10 enchantments, and mythic/legendary artifacts.
Rank 11 &12 enchantments (pure and transcendent for weapon/armor) are supposed to be a big deal to reach.
My bad Homies... Didn't read the fine print that gear and enchants aren't getting touched (btw, why not?) I had my hopes up, like yay, can finally afford to upgrade something that doesn't require 2 years of refinement point grinding. Not sure if adding 20 extra points to an enhance stone is worth 25Gs + wards, but w/e.
So we get GMoPs and MoPs for less, but FS still go for $30k??? For a lousy 5k RP? I can earn far more than that for free just working through 1 cycle of quests in Stronghold with blue RP drops.
And the price for 1 ID scroll is still 125. Are you kidding me? So much for reacting to customer feedback.
Way to go PWE customer service team! You really know how to underwhelm and let down the people who keep you employed!

Sigh! Who would buy ID scroll from AD shop? 125 AD was a bad price when leadership AD was not nerf'ed. Nobody sane would buy from there. Same for MOP. Nobody sane would buy MOP from AD shop before and now (after the "price drop").

MoPs are so cheap because they drop so you can buy them off the AH. They're overpriced in the fixed economy because they're available through the player economy.
That's "Working As Intended."

Going from Rank 10->11 will now cost 2 Superior Marks of Potency, instead of 5 Greater Marks of Potency Going from Rank 11->12 will now cost 4 Superior Marks of Potency, instead of 5 Greater Marks of Potency
My perfects and pure all require 5 SMoPs to upgrade.
oh yeah, just reminding another problems with que'ing for skirmish/missions, waiting for groups to get fill ques for 30 mins or few hours, and suddenly you are in and then get kick out before they start killing first mobs. they dont say why, it either i have enough item score, or they dont want specific classes i played.
so, i wait for CTA events, most dont care for item score or being outparsed than anyone. it for free for all.
sorry for off-topic.
there was other topic in feedbacks for marks price. i might like these new changes of the cost, but it will take me several weeks for my ADs to rebuilt. i had to invest buying some profession access and get some upgrading to purples, those are too expensive. getting black ice crafter gauntlets is way too low and seem far more extreme rare and unreachable, had to sell excessive Cryomancers and it getting AH overflooding with them. that has to change some ratio, most refused donating to strongholds because some players want "Thier money back" situations. they felt cheated and robbed from profession packs and lockboxes.

Making rank 9 enchants makes rank 10 enchants cheaper : |

So just queue for lower level skirmishes. You don't have to do epic skirmishes.

Weapon and armor enchantment prices weren't changed.
such a changes should be issued at list 2 month before taking place. What with these players who purchase the marks earlier. They were affected by significant losses. That is not fair.

Created an account just to whine?
Players who purchased to refine did not lose much. Unfortunate, just have to suck it in. Only people with a big exposure are the ones who use GMOPs as currency to trade to circumvent the AH tax. Even then, they had nearly a week to unload their holdings on the AH for 75-85K AD, which was only a bit below the average price GMOPs have been going for. If you were greedy and didn't sell hoping something would change, tough. I hope you lost a lot.

Huh. I've been so amazed that people are so put off by all this but,
In retrospect, yeah-people must have been using GMOPs as currency. But, it's the people accepting GMOPs that are hurt by this, not the people using GMOPs. See, there's no reason to buy GMOPs unless you're going to use them immediately. But unless the person who accepts GMOPs as currency uses them immediately, yeah-they're accepting a substantial loss of liquidity relative to astral diamonds.
I guess the moral of the story is, don't use GMOPs unless you're intending on using them.
Anyway, I don't think people should call people trading things for GMOPs cheaters. After all, you're allowed to trade items for GOLD, so it's not like there's not systems in place.
After the announcement of the changes, prices for GMOPs dropped to 50k for a few minutes, went back to 60k for a few days, went up to 85k and ended up at 65k, when the patch notes were released.
Most ppl who traded in GMOPs traded them at a value of 75k, bc they have VIP 12. Imo the once who bought them AFTER the announcement for 60k+ paid for their laziness and the ones who wanted to sell for more then 70k and ended up with a big loss, paid for their greed.
Somebody started an auction with 99 GMOPs after the patch notes were released with a price of 60k+ EACH. I know, it only takes one fool, but really?
I've been playing since dec last year..love this game, have even bought zen and put some money into it, and although i appreciate alot of the changes thats took place and the lowering of gmops ect..thats jus great...BUT its helping nothing, im on here now trying to up a artifact...besides the normal things needed i had to buy 5 gmops 125,000..ok i can go with that..how much have i spent to get it to legendary, well ive bought 8 wards so far at 5k each, and i had 8 already in the bank...so thats about 80,000..and u know , its still not legendary! but now wards are going for 12k each so im not even doin it..most time i wouldnt be complaining so much, but u know how much AD's i make in about a day now..i made about 8,500 yesterday..thats about a months work to get what ive already spent..n even though i run temple of the spider for the next hour, i wont even be able to afford another ward >.>...this has got way out of hand and for us people like me that play this game every single day for hours...ive been online since 11 this morning...broke and still not advancing...its ruining this game and im sad to see it go. yea i could run tos and some skirmishes continously all day and maybe come out around 15/17k..but then when am i suppose to do all the fun stuff and actually advance my toon in places like wod or iwd, its boring running the same stuff over n over..i dont know what its gonna take to fix the game, but i hope you got some more changes coming soon cuz right now its not worth its:/

Then when your starving to death they throw you a bone with no meat on it and say here chew on this it will tide you over till we decide what we are going to wreck next. THEY want to kill the PC version of the game and all they have to work on is the XBOX. would be wise to bail now before throwing more money down the drain called PW. Or move to Xbox ......lol and that is another bad joke.
