One of the biggest fails I've seen on RT is the price of mats. For example, yesterday I needed a couple of concentrated glues. The lowest price for this glue was close to 16k. So I farmed it. Even with a mule account it took me a long time. Today I needed to farm 20 grease for weaps. I farmed them from mobs at my level and it still took me a little over 4 hours. No wonder these mats are outrageously, and heinously, priced. Now, it's a nice little gimmick to gave mats in the boutique and it's actually pretty cheap to buy them that way but not all of us are cash shoppers. Don't misunderstand, I'm a cser myself and have spent a few thousand on the game since playing and have nothing wrong with that BUT times are tough on more than me and there's a lot of us who would love to advance our crafting skills the old fashioned way. How about upping the damned drop rate percentages on mats at least? Not only would that really, really help us poor crafters but it might even help the rotten economy in-game.

Wow, that's, like, a ginormous paragraph! b:laugh

    Yeah. That or lowering the cost they have in the botique.

    A combination of the two would be nicest, IMO.

    Can't be that bad, lol

    Today my level 42 veno killed ~120 Mutant Jackals on the Swiftwind Plain for an AMAZING 5 leather!

    Compared to 3 leather/~160 of those mobs yesterday that's a huge improvement already!

    someone else but me complains abouth the droprates. there realy is a crappy economy in the game. myself plays on dreamwaver and i am a cash shoper, and i have to say that ive spent several thousands myself.

    how ever sooner or later there wont be anny need for cashers as monny will dissapear in the game, even if i buy gold i cant bloddy sell em if no one gets anny cash/items from mobs!

    we need better mat drops dq dropps and coindrops/price for DQ items, PWI fix ur stinkin economy!
