Any predictions how the price of gold will fair and how the economy will settle (especially with overtly buyable Oracles and their delicious profit to PWI)?

    Where exactly would the coin to buy this 700k gold come from though? Don't forget, the only coin generated will be from NPC'ing junk, so starting off there's gonna be a million cash shoppers wanting to sell gold and a hoard of nubs scraping money together from their quests and lv10+ items who wont be able to afford it.

    Gold won't be very high at the start (only crazy people selling it for a lot) simply because there isn't enough coins in the economy.
    So people that prefer to sell gold rather than buy it for personal use won't get much money at all (probably only 60k-80k on the first day).
    But I'm guessing gold will move on to stabilize at 400k after enough money starts flowing in the economy after a month.

    the gold is higher than it should be because the players from other servers are use to paying higher prices. The prices they are charging in the catshops for items is crazy. Those of us from Dreamweaver get sticker shock. I wont pay more than I'm use to. It's crazy to start out with a new server charging 700k for gold. Thats just crazy. It was only 100k when DW server started. If it starts out high, it will just get higher not lower. Don't mess it up people. AND I will not pay 8k for a Dull Claw! I look around till i find a price I feel is fare. Don't buy overpriced stuff!!
