    i believe this sale was just to get a rough idea of how well charms would sell at lower prices compared to before at higher prices. most likely after this sale, or perhaps already during, someone will be writting up a report of their findings and passing a recommendation to their boss regarding future prices.

    and from the amount of people i have seen using / buying / selling charms since the sale started i would think their recommendation would be to permenantly keep the current price of charms.

    I think the current price is a good compramise, and it would be possitive to keep them as is and not raise it. I vote for keeping them at their current price

    I know I can currently heal through all boss fights I've been presented with, without a charm, the future I dunno, but for now I can. I'll always at least try because its more fun when its challenging.

    I will admit though, for time saving purposes, I've purchased quite the amount of silver charms since the sale. B4 the sale, I only bought 2 because I was curious (and I mean 2 of the little ones). Did spend a bunch on mounts and stuff, ah I couldn't help it, deer was so cute and Raptor was cool.

    So... I for one must say, dropping the price worked on me. Though I am completely understanding that PWI needs to charge more than PW-MY, I can attest that income wise - PWI has gotten more out of me for charms at the lower prices. ;)

    BUMP! KEEP THE CHARM PRICING!

    i cant stress how much it cost if it goes back. might even just slower the process of this game making it big and fun.


    LEAVE THE CHARM the way they are and give it a little more cash break because you know you need our support.

    keeping the charm prices at 1.50 is a very good idea. (although dropping them even more would be better) i think more people donated during this sale than during the time we didnt have the sale. keep it plox!

    I bought a silver HP charm during the sale, but I'm not likely to buy anymore if the prices go back up.

    that $35 mount will most likely remain with u for the next year or so.

    but if u wanna play a year with $2.50 herios, burning at least 1 per day at higher lvls, u'll be paying over $700. that $35 mount suddenly sounds cheap.

    Im only lv50 and I can stand getting a charm every 2-3 days at this level.

    but going through 3-4 every DAY at 70+, there will be no more than a handful of people buying them at $2.50 a piece.

    if you lower the price to $1 a piece, (yes lower than your sale price), the amount being bought will skyrocket.
    If they go down to $0.75 a piece, you're looking at a very nice amount of money because more will be sold.

    its basic business economics, - you're only hurting yourselves.

    either way, im signing this for $0.75 a silver charm, the amount that would be bought would be LOADS.
    give it like a 3 hour try-out, im sure you'd make more during those 3 hours than you would in a whole week of $2.50 pricing.

    I cant believe they kept the old prices, they MUSt have realized how many more hieros sold during these last 2 weeks... I myself hadnt bought a hiero until the sales price, and now I already bought over 15 easily, but Im not touching hieros until they drop again, and everyone should do the same

    If I have to Ill just go play my fox again until they do it, dont give them money, they are forced to reduce, simple

    Seriously, you are complaining about prices... No one is forcing you to buy anything. If they prices are too high just dont spend money. You can just buy gold from the ah with money you get from drops and dq items. Not a big secret at around 60 you make about 1m a day. Sooo.... stop complaining.

    QFT. You probably play a WF.

    I'd like to see you do a higher end dungeon with clerics that DON'T USE CHARMS.

    FYI, wait till inflation hits. You'll be crying that it's 400k coins for 1 zen. I'd like to see your 1M per day support 4x+ silver charms at that price.

    Yea we are complaining about the prices because the people who made this game made it for the public to play. The public has a voice that should be listened too. They did not make this game to lose money so they could play with themselves. This is a business and they will lose a lot of it if they do not start acting fair. The people complaining are people who do not want to get ripped off but dont want to see a good game go bad. were trying to save the company not make it worse. So you should seriously take a step back look and think about what the CASH SHOP HUDDLE forums is about.

    Keep on sale. DX Too expensive if its on regular prices. (Ignores all other negative posts)

    I cant afford much since I totally suck at the buy/sell stuff and I cant even leave my computer on at night. Even if i do buy/sell I'll just end up loosing money at the end and spending 1-2 hours per day browsing through shops.

    Clerics. If you have a good cleric, the tanks HP charm rarely ticks. However, the cleric's MP charm ticks like once every 10-15 seconds.

    Archers and clerics or maybe wizzies need MP charms for zhen party (AoE party)

    Clerics always need charms so they can spam heal and other spells

    BM and Barb needs Hp charm because they tank.

    basically.. everyone needs charms even venomancers

    If you pk/pvp or join TW, you need to have charms

    wow, now that I finally see the non-sale cash shop pricing on charms, the sale DEFINITELY needs to be permanent. Stuff in this game is already pretty expensive overall, but the charms have a lot of people hooked, and will continue to be a consistent cash cow at their lowered prices...hopefully the sales were so awesome that they will lower the prices again, permanently! Until then, I'll use pots, or find someone selling them at a good price of in-game gold.

    I totally agree. They should remove bronze heiros, reduce the silver heiros to 80 silver and then add gold heiros to the cashshop at 1.5 gold.

    as that would be amazing, thats too much to ask for right now
    a permanent price of 1.50 for a silver charm would be the best way to go right now as it is impossible to spend at least 5$ a day with the current prices
    (would still be 3$/day, but thats cheaper than 5$ isnt it?)

    The gms dont play the game so they have absolutely no clue what high level EPs and WBs are forced to spend.

    $1.5 is still a bit expensive but tolerable, 2.5 is going to kill the game fast.

    I agree with the OP as well, I came pretty close to quiting after the price went back up, my guild somehow talked me out of it xD (<3 guild).

    And when PW EU comes out with gold charms at 1.5, guess where all the clerics are going to be?

    At my level the silver charm is already ticking like mad, and with skills costing over 450 mana each I don't see a way out apart from the charms.. farming for herbs will take forever
