    Wrong, BH is a pure coin exchange from one player to another. No coins whatsoever are leaving the player economic system. For deflation to occur, there would need to be an actual coin sink (paying coin to NPCs, thus removing it from circulation.) Even if mold drops, thats again coin circulation from another player to you, no coins added to the system.

    The truth is it is strictly Anni Packs. People could buy 100 Anni Packs at 500k each, & make more money from those 100 packs then they paid. They kept repeating the cycle, so there was an endless supply of people willing to pay that much for gold, simply because what they were getting still made money. No other item on the entire boutique granted something worth greater then 500k value, but some people needed things none-the-less and were forced to pay. Now that there isnt an endless cycle of people willing to buy 500k gold, the price goes down.

    This game isn't complicated.

    Be a Veno.
    Get a Nix.
    Set all hotkeys to Stun and Flesh Ream.
    Faceroll keyboard.
    Type DESU.
    MOAR Faceroll.
    MOAR DESU.
    MOAR Rickrol--Faceroll.
    ????
    PROFIT!

    As much as I respect you... That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard you say...

    Because the ???? should really be "Roll a better class."

    Anni packs are not the only reason for the gold price to go down. I personally believe we are going into a deflection period. in order to support high gold price, there has to be enough in game currency (coins). those coins from grinding, quest rewards, and other rewards. with new BH system, I hardly see any one has time to grind, and BH is a pure coins outflow even you get a mold drop every run, I usually need to spend 2 hours to do my BH and another hour to do my WQ, I have not been able to have time to grind for a long time, but at same time, I need to buy mats, spend coins on CS and such, I am eating up coins I saved before. I stopped buying anything not essential, this in turn will make other players much harder to make money from doing business and HH/Mold/Book farming.

    mold drops decrease the value of coin

    example

    economy A
    1000 coins, 2 molds

    economy B
    1000 coins, 1 mold

    it is highely likely i larger sum of coins will be paid in economy B to purchase the mold thereby reducing the value of coin

    but mld drops do not change the amount of coin in the economy so therefore the price of gold should remain the same

    however we must take into account that the increased amount of molds will reduce the need to buy gold thereby reducing demand and cauing a drop in prices

    so i think
    increased mold drops should reduce the price of gold

    they should make it so that wines are bought from NPC with coin instead of with mats

    this would drain the economy of coin

    but honestly it is kind of difficult to keep an in game economy under control

    in real life things lik weapons and armor would break and need constant replacing

    repair costs in the game cant replicate this effect

    they should increase repair costs etc

    genies should be able to be bought from NPC with coin

    there is no where near enough ways to drain coin

    I don't think having more molds drops changes the value of coin drops. It's only that the mold is worth less. Even if you get the mold you still have to refine it and socket it so that increases demand for gold.

    thats a stupid explanation. your just lazy. you dont have to grind to make money. you can farm mats you know


    let me just add in something since were talking about economy. i think this games economy is great! since gold prices are low and everything. in another game i played...there was a monopoly. one guild of about 100 people camped the boss all day long and bcuz of that they controlled all the end game gear, legends, ect. and prices for that kinda stuff were sky high, like 100mil. lol so be happy its not like my old game.

    ummm... a deflation period due to lack of in game coin??

    Just because you choose to spend all your time running daily quests and spending coins instead of accumulating them does not mean that some of the more entrepreneurial players are making any less than they used to.... b:bye

    The more entrepreneurial players make up a small subset of the player population. The poster to whom you are responding is speaking on a whole server perspective. A lot of coins used to come from grinding, when you consider the thousands of players that used to grind. Now with all these BHs, a lot of players are no longer grinding, and making less coin than before.

    This was not intended to say that you should not do BH nor that any particular individual person, such as yourself, is making less coin. The poster is stating that, on average, there are less coins entering the economy b/c players, in general, are spending less time grinding.

    To keep it simple -->

    The current sale is not worthy enough for the Gold prices to remain high.


    Wait for it -->

    Any type of Orb, Charm, New Pack or highly "wanted" items will raise the Gold Prices again.

    <facepalm> gee you guys take a little thing & blow it WAY out of proportion

    Appropriate answer to the OP is:

    The gold market fluctuates based on many factors therefore you should keep up with current events in the game to know what those factors are.

    You guys need to learn to stay on topic. The anni pack debate thread is that way ========>
