Either GMs are the ones secretly buying gold and putting coins in the economy or someone has Dupe and buying all the gold because there is no way to generate that many coins with BH,cube farming DQ, Quests all in together for everyone to be buying the gold in the AH 24/7. Eitherway someone is controlling the gold prices. Hacks or GM, no questions about it.

    Someone will try to chew me out i bet but its the TW income and similar. Its not much impact per week, but nobody really pays money to NPCs for anything, and much of the money floating around comes from NPCs from cube, TW, NPCing DQ (Just think, everyone on the server probably NPCs an average of at LEAST half a mill a week in DQ (guesstimate ofc)) so it builds up.

    Coin going to another player doesnt leave the game, no matter what way you look at it.

    @OP

    It's called merchanting

    People buy gold, buy packs, rep, chips, medals, charms w/e, sell it for less than it costs to the casual player to buy because the merchants buy it in bulk. They make a profit and if the buyer only wants a few items, they are saving money to.

    Rinse, repeat = merchants buy more gold = prices go up

    No, TW pay has nothing to do with why the gold prices are so high..

    GM's actually changed the TW pay to Mirages at some point to decrease the price of gold, because the gold prices are so high, in the end it didn't work and the gold prices didn't change and during that time TW was dead. Now they changed it to 10 mill bank notes (which is the closes thing to normal TW pay).

    The main cause of high gold prices is the introduction of packs and later super cheap R9 sales, and countless other sales.


    Gold was once 100k-250k then when packs were added, gold jumped to 500k-600k and it slowly rose to 700k+. Lastly the final blow to the gold prices was the R9 sale which made the gold prices to 900-1mil+.

    That's the reason why gold is so high. b:surrender

    The point. You missed it.

    I and the OP are talking about the availability of coins, not why the price of gold is high.

    I pointed out that theres more coins coming into the game than going out because theres no reason to buy stuff off of NPCs for the most part.

    Oh....... b:embarrass

    If you put it that way, you have a point.... nobody really buys anything off NPC's since most of the items sold from them are not worth getting so the money never gos away it just gos from one player to another. So the prices doesn't go down.

    Thanks for pointing that out. lol b:pleased

    Thank you. At least someone in this thread 'gets it.'

    To you other folks: There's your bloody culprit right there. 10 mil in coins, right out of thin air.
    I guarantee you, if the 10m note were removed as a TOBL option, you'd see things begin to stabilize, and gold prices would drop.

    Oh true, not immediately or overnight, there's still way too much coin in circulation right now for it to make an impact right away. But over a month? Three? ...grinding, TW pay, and noob pocket-change doesn't even come close to the amount of raw coin being injected in-game solely from handing over a pair of those damn sodding tokens to the Boutique Agent.

    Perfect token of best luck every 20 seconds? Yeah thats how there is so much coin. But GM's dnt care about this game just the cash flow they get form it.
