As much as the prices do suck (being a non zhen charger myself), this is people's RL money we're talking about here. It is their decision on what they want to charge for it. And let's not even talk about greedy, because who has the right to put a price tag on people's earned cash. Without gold sellers, we non gold sellars would not have access to half the items out there, ie D orbs, xp scrolls, charms, GAs, tele incenses, fast flyers and ground mounts, fashion, etc.
p.s. Please lower the gold exhange rates. Thank you! b:cuteb:bye you were all swell peoples0 -
p.s. Please do not buy the gold at this insane prices for a while. Thank you! b:laugh
i used to buy few golds sometimes.Now i dont buy anymore.I prefer to save coins.Why ? Anyway boutique items purchased with gold will be underestimated and it can be more cheap to buy later, all new items from boutique
We keep this price high,its our fault b:surrender.Do not buy for a while gold, they will need to lower the price b:victory
p.s. A aggressive market can be calm down with aggressive decision b:mischievous[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC] srry about my english, im sure you'll get the point what im trying to say b:chuckleb:bye
Happy Holidays ! b:victory0 -
Ever since the first orb sale PWI has released one sale after another which has kept the price of gold high (without much of anything in the way of new content). To tell the truth the constant sales reek of desperation. I think PWI has concerns over the long-term survivability of the game and is cashing out now as much as it can.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

gold can go at maximun 1.000.000 coins per gold. I am pretty sure this will happen in the end game, because when that time come lots of players already had give up and the server wil be more empty with will make gold prices being so high... I think the time the gold were 105K or 110K each have ended... this game already had his maximun. Of course sales helps a bit in changing the gold prices.
edit: I cant even imagine if I am playing this game in about 1 year... but boutique items will be at double our triple price. Gold charms for 1300K... not bad.Happy Sauce face

prices wont jack up that easily if one of the factors remain constant. And that is PWs price with 1$=1Gold. If this factor isnt constant then its another story.Dominatiger - Sanctuary wrote: »gold can go at maximun 1.000.000 coins per gold.

I am getting a little sick of these cash shop sales raining upon us constantly every week. Its exhausting trying to 'catch the deal' when it arrives, while slacking on other things I should be focusing on.
Hopefully after this patch tonight, and this last 'charm pack and d. orb sale', things will settle down. The company has got to realize they are starting to irritate and exhaust their players.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]Duke Shouts: WTT PWI for Your Credit Card!

At least you're not on HL. Gold here is usually 170k each or so...when sales occur, around 185k-200k.0 -

I'd rather see more end-game content than all these so-called events a.k.a "sales" week after week. They actually ruined really fun (or used to be) weekly event due to some boutique item adds, and yes I'm talking about DT. Normal bikinis on sale was bad enough and for such a low price,now we got even other sets of bikinis that surpasses the original lowering the normal bikini price even further.Most of the ppl who come to DT now mostly do it for the pvp alone.0

The problem is that most gold in AH isnt earned RL money.. most comes from people that bought gold low to sell high
ATM gold on Sanc is 170-185k ...great .. continue that way people
With the patch = you do the cube.. you get the chest of coin, you need an iron hammer to open it...
Chest of coins contains 1M coins, hammer is 5 gold.
With gold at 185 it makes the hammer at 925k (without counting the 5% exchange rate will you open it ?
The problem is IMO, that PWE is killiing the golden hen, to much cash events, so people need to put more money in the game ( or find a way to buy more gold)
how much moiney have you put in game lately ( or how many gold have you bought in game lately)I look at all the trollers, and Pvpers.. and know they wouldnt have lasted 30sec on Camelot.

So true...Pwi wearing the players out with all these events. Just recently I spent like 300 bucks on the sale event and now they come out with charm pack and D. orbs sale againb:surrender...not to mention the new chest added in cube required us to use cash shop hammer to open. Gold prices went though the roof so I didn't even bother to buy it with coins. Like much of the previous posts...I would rather they fix the bugs and focus on giving us new content rather than finding ways empty our wallets (both virtual and real currency).[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -

I waste all my money on pulling off leeroys trying to solo 3-4 higher lvl/better geared full buffed ppl at once which result's in a pretty high(overtime) GA + charm cost.
Why do I do it? Because I can !!! b:cute .
Besides PROness and POORness match ,that would be a shame to change now wouldn't it ^_^ .
No I'm not c0cky I'm realistic. Peace ya'll.0 -
and now behold... gold at 180K each...Happy Sauce face

as they go up so do things like teles/esos and other stuff.
i know some who have quit because prices of gold and other boutique items being sold on game is just unacceptable.
yes some people buy with real money but like said before most is bought cheap to sell for more -.- really now?
this is just crazy[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

It's not from gold reselling, it's from people buying all the cheap gold, then constantly one-upping each other in bidding for the next gold infusion. And that happens at a far faster rate than people putting gold in. Somtimes enough people will put alot in at one time, and gold will drop back to 140k and such. But usually the ceiling on bid will be reached when someone just doesn't think they can turn a profit selling CS items and rebuying gold off the proceeds. And currently, it is definitely the jones event causing this. Even at 170k, they can still turn a pretty good profit in their attempt to get gems to sell later on, or to cheaply fully shard their armor.0 -
haha u lost meh <.<
either way its just freeaking crazy[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

This. Lack of development has left a stale end-game, where there's so very little to do except excruciatingly repetitive and long instances (delta, lunar, TT 3/2-3/3). PvP is largely dead, the one functional event rendered meaningless thanks to its primary prize being added to the cash shop, all other events still yet to be implemented/fixed, bugs proliferate and remain unaddressed for months, etc. At this point, practically everyone I know is staying for the people in the game, not the game itself; guess what happens when a new game(s) comes then that attracts them all, as is coming soon.
PWI knows this, and seems to have elected to take a strip mining approach to the game at the expense of any semblance of economic balance rather than try and revise long-term planning. The result is sale after sale of everything they can offer in rapid succession to grab cash shop players and their wallets before they move on. Cube boxes are the dead giveaway; they have essentially offered cash shop players a permanent 2:1 return on their money compared to the traditional 1g~100k, which in turn assures that gold prices are never going to go down. Rather telling how it's the cash shop content that took priority and was rushed in for this expansion, while the first actual new gameplay content in a year (genies don't count) remains a work in progress.0 -

Lol, when I suggested this in the General forum, GM says I was defaming PWI.b:chuckle

Yeah, it was a stickied thread, they probably haven't seen this thread, safely hidden and tucked away.b:victory0 -
spoons knows all and sees all. Its his job to troll the forums in every nook and cranny.
I think he was a bit grumpy that day, he had several thousand people to try and calm down on the forums. I dont blame him, really. A lot of people are really pissed at these recent sales, and he cant do much about it, besides take notes and submit them to the feedback team. Poor guy.
What irritates me most though, is that Xarfox tries to do damage control by explaining that they are trying to de-inflate gold prices, and then tries to sidetrack us by telling of wondrous things to come, like we havent heard that before.

So now you have the following options:

-Become a ninja GM, **** the server, and get everything you want.

LOL Dreamweaver has it the worst with 220k for gold nowb:surrender...charms are 550k minimumb:cryand im just curious but did PWI nerf veno's heal skill or pump up fb59 boss damage?...i use to be able to solo fb59 all the bosses at lvl 61 with herc and now i cant even kill the weakest of the bosses after the updateb:sad0
-
I would just let the herc solo it. I attacked it, and it was like INSTANTAGGROPLZ. Regarding your heal, I didn't notice anything different. If anything it should be easier due to +10% attack. But that's up for discussion in a different thread.
220k? Sanc is only 170k. Didn't say I would ever say only. Got a charm yesterday for 375k though. -happy-0 -

well i been doin solo fb59's at lvl 61 for 3weeks, it was my main source of income for the insane prices here and all do is constant heal cause the bosses are lvl 65 an i dont have time to throw in a attk so i let herc just constantly atk while i spam heal and i was doin it for weeks, farmed over 20m income but NOW my herc cant even get the HP down to 1/4 of there HP w/o getting wasted, i tried each boss in the fb an each one kills my herc and zimo kills him almost instantly and the 10% to damage doesnt affect heal skill0 -
I just noticed the second charm sale. hello to high prices.
This is getting off topic, but poison if you say so, then I guess they did change something. At my level I can't really tell >_> lol.0 -
