Can we bury 2x drops forever?

Now before you go all b:angry on me, I say this for good reason.

The laws of supply and demand are a bit tricky in PWI. You'd expect prices to return to normal after a week or two, but it never does.

Prices might go to 10-20% higher than the "discount" price after the event ends.

Let me put it this way.

Spending 40k on a sub, going into HH, collecting drops, and selling them used to net a small profit for me. Now the boss HH drops, usually selling for 100k-120k (which I might add WEREN'T EVEN AFFECTED BY 2x DROPS! Only the minor drops/celestones/Perfect Stones were) will NOT be bought unless it's HALF of what it used to be.

And even though I know it will go up, it's not going to go back up to normal. It NEVER does.

In short, 2x drops are ruining the economy in Perfect World. Next event, please just make it 2x EXP.

    Not only 2x drops ruin the economy. What else does? Anni packs, Packs, Jolly events (forgot that ol' bro's full name...), etc.

    I'm always glad for 2x drops.

    im not completely con, and neither am i pro with you

    2* drops should remain and be a constant part of the game

    BUT only in grinding areas, make Grinding worth something

    All dungeons, boss fights should remain as it is (ie 1x).

    So people grinding make some money and use that money to buy from others (at the just price), without being on the lookout for lowest prices.

    Who goes grinding nowadays? (only grinding, no mats nor flowers picked)

    grinding doesnt rewards you with anything.... any Barb or Bm out there that goes grinding? 85+% of the money farmed goes to repairs/pots..

    Less costly classes ... lets say veno ... 1h grinding on a good spot can earn you 200k ... much better than what a barb or Bm can do..

    but still far far far from what is needed to buy anything interesting in game;
    I look at all the trollers, and Pvpers.. and know they wouldnt have lasted 30sec on Camelot.

    Rules= Know your enemy (players and NPCs) gives you more chances to survive.

    give me a ****ing break your complaining because your a veno. I hate going into a TT squad to farm my TT90 mats and gettign only one mat that i need since the rest of the squad needs the other mats. It sucks especially since im tanking the bosses and my repair bill goes thru the roof. In short if your a Venomancer were you solo TT everyday and make huge profits 2X drops sucks. If your like everybody else 2X drops is amazing, since it gives people a chance to make their TT armor without months of work. The packs are the ones ruining the economy, they should only be out once every couple of months, lately it seems like theyve been on forever. First the corals then a week later the tiger packs.

    Totally agree with wulf.
    To original poster: TT is meant for people to farm up their gears, not for you to sell those mats and earn ur coins. In fact I wish TT mats flood the market so that their prices are more matched with common mats thus removing the venomancer advantage of being richer than other class due to natural ability to solo TT.

    ok it seems just about everyone in this thread either all economic classes or does not know anything about the game

    @Reivi increasing mob drops causes more coin to be ingame which causes inflation meaning all prices(including gold prices) to skyrocket so no one will benefit from this

    @VonSabrewulf actually 2x instance drops is bad for the economy because it breaks the ballance yes the TT mat prices go down and its easier to farm them now but consider venos cant solo every TT and the TT mat market collapses by 2x drops so you can scrap another market to keep this game f2p

    @NatureLover
    like i said before not only venos run TTs i did a long time to on my old barb main and it was worth enough to make a living off it well til mass spam off 2x events and at that point i became broke
