    Token of best luck for 13.5k as the initial post said? Seeing as how those are worth 5mil each hell yeah I'll buy em.



    And tokens have been 20k +, 13.5k is cheap.

    First of all - luck / best luck confusion.

    Secondly - tokens are only relatively high because the packs aren't on sale-price right now. Wait for year of the rabbit packs and they'll go down to the usual 9.9k/10.1k split.

    Or in other words: Sell all your tokens now, buy them back later, for a quick and obvious profit.


    And yes, gold prices are ridiculous, and probably always will be from here on in.

    Rawrg a loser cash shopper of ever saying than u will buy all tokens on 13.5k, u have money to do it man, but this discussion is not for cash shoppers with lots of money, is for ppl POOR than dont have money to spend in a game. i love dis game but please not all ppl can buy gold. if u will think dis is cheap buy all tokens n gift it to me BE SERIUS CASHSHOPPERS.

    If you cant buy gold (either with coins or rl cash)quit now. Cause endgame is all about the refines and uber gears that you will need gold for. PWI doesn't care if you are poor; they know others are not.

    That part is exactly what I meant. I will not deny that PWE is pushing for more gold sales (anyone who argues that is a total idiot). What I was stating is that the prices are set by the buyers in the gold market, or at least controlled. Who are mostly the f2p people and the merchanters. It's still the players that are in the end controlling the prices. PWE could have another rep sale plus Oceans for 10 gold, and if the buyers dont want to go above say, 600k, then the gold will never go that high, no matter what the sale is. If it werent for the buyers, the price of gold wouldn't be as high, and as such, you might not see as much of a gap in between the common f2per and the cash shopper.

    I will not say that PWE is innocent in the gold prices, but people who think its all the company need to take a good hard look at the people who really make those prices possible. Again, if there are not buyers, we cant sell the gold to them.

    While it's true that the gold price will only go as high as the market will bear, it's PWI who sets what that dollar can buy. Since they are adjusting one side of the equation, the other will naturally follow... until, that is, that there is no other side of the market to bear it.

    You're really contradicting yourself all the time in your post...

    Wow you sure are a bright one. Do you realize that what you quoted and compared were in two completely different paragraphs? No, of course you didn't. Simple rules of writing escape your comprehension. Please, put the dunce cap back on and sit in the corner.

    Since your simple mind cannot grasp more complex ideas, I'll reiterate it in one sentence for you to fully grasp.

    PWI adjusts what is available for 1 gold so the market stabilizes what that perceived value that gold will get you with the coin required to purchase it.

    If you cannot fathom the idea that several different points can be brought to a single conclusion, you seriously need to go back to your remedial classes.

    The main reason why gold prices are high is because of the cash shop sellers and the stupidity of the buyers. If nobody would buy gold for a while, ofc it would go down but there's so much money in the old servers that actually nobody gives a ....

    /facepalm

    If nobody would buy gold for a while... Do you realize how stupid of an assertion that is?

    As long as people play the game, people will buy and sell gold. THERE IS NO AVOIDING THIS.

    You saying that PWI is artificially inflating the prices, well I don't agree with that, since they were the only ones trying to keep ingame economy under control (because players don't), changing TW payment to mirages.

    /facepalm

    PWI trying to keep the in-game economy in control? Do you realize how stupid of an assertion that is?

    PWI is the one who removed the 1m limit that gold can trade for and raised it to 4m.

    Everyone here QQs waaaaaaay too much about everything for what this game is, at least you can have fun in the game for a long time and without having to be a cs freak, go check out other games and when you have compared them, you will notice it.

    /facepalm

    What does this have to do with anything.... it doesn't.
    I post in forums. This one and others. That's why I post.
