I have seen +10 Vit stones going for 4m+ under normal prices and have had to drop Forsura arms by 75k in order to sell them; even then they don't sell well.
My conclusion - the changes are working to deflate the servers.
And, can we all please agree to stop blaming the token of best lucks? That is a red herring. First off, and this is coming from someone who has traded in 3 sets, trading tokens for big notes is really stupid. Tokens should be traded for TT100 mats or spurs. However, even when they are traded in for big notes I would wager the majority of the time that coin is given right back to the server. Either in skill costs or upgrading a faction to lvl 3 or buying mats from some noob who then buys skills.
My observation - The only ones (not really, but mostly) who don't like the changes are those that lost TW salary. No one else really gives a **** because no one else lost anything.
This shows how little you know about anything dealing with economics. Trading ToBL for spurs are you insane? 15 mil buys you alot more then 1 set of spurs and anyone with at least 3 brains cells left alive in their head would not make this choice. The same with TT100 mats. Maybe the 10 ToBL TT100 mat, which comes to 50 mil value in ToBLs might be worth it but that one generally makes the **** TT100 weapons not even worth 50 mil. The 30 & 60 ToBL TT100 mats come to 150 mil & 300 mil. You could get a Lunar Weapons which is better and still have tons of cash left over. Te reason everyone converts ToBL into 10 mil bank notes is because that is the highest value per token of any of the reward items.
And gold prices havent gone lower historically. WHenever Coral Packs are on sale, gold is always in the mid 300k range, because those packs simply dont have the same yeild as Tiger, Anni, Sunshine, (and wasnt there another?) packs in return items. The people who buy the packs know this and wont pay as much for this. The last 2 or 3 times Coral packs were the pack on sale, this was the gold price. Nothing has changed. In fact you're only proving how manipulative PWE is in this. They intentionally marketted the packs that lower gold prices (historically) to try push this as evidence under what is known as a fallacy of truth (google that term), or Truthiness (google that also).
Add to this, the huge difficulty people are having farming what used to be a huge income for free players (re: TT changes) thats giving a huge amount of people less money to spend. This is causing people to have alot less money on hand. And that is causing deflation. TT, TW, even DQ and Mining nerfs, all these are ways in which free players made coin, and they've all been squished. So the prices of regular goods is decreasing.
However even after all that i said in the above paragraph, the price of gold is still at its mark price of mid 300k range as always with the current packs. Just watch what happens to the price of gold when and if (and that if is almost certain) a new big pack comes out for the Anniversary. Gold will still shoot up, because the big pack marketters are the ones earning huge coin over ToBLs and they will pay alot more coin & the price of gold will go right back to its standard price for the 1.72% ToBL packs. And i'll laugh when you're proven totally wrong. ToBLs are not a red herring, they are the truth.0 -

Bidding got closed recently on Heaven's Tear.
Normally we have at least 12-14 TW's per week.
When I looked at the times for this weekend, there was only 6 TWs for the weekend.
*claps for the GMs* Happy Anniversary to you as well0 -
We have 3 attacks this weekend...
I think Kylin is going to be another no-show, the former top guild has simply stopped caring about TW. Zulu is simply taking territories. The top three guilds, Kylin, Zulu and Crimson seem only to care about other guilds taking over map territories...
I miss the old days... back when we had all the factions... Kylin, Crimson, Carebears, Kingdom, etc... one time over 20 wars in a good week.0 -

Dont Think it helped that 3 or 4 others aswell as Enrage all bid on Dominus's 1 land. An extra 3 wars became wasted bids.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -
Nefarious has I think 6 defense 1 attack
Regicide 2 defense 1 attack
Vindicate 2 defense 1 attack
Enelysion 1 defense
kinda low compared to past weeks0 -
Raging Tide went from about 8-9 TW's each week with full 3 hours wars, triple attacks on both of the strongest factions, to 3-4 TW's a week. In QQme only about 60 people actually appeared for TW against a triple attack since nobody can be bothered anymore after the update.
Used to be triple attacks on Leviathan, triple attacks on QQme, and some weaker factions PvPing amongst themselves. Now you get false bids, maybe 1 double attack, and No-Shows for most of the time.0 -
