    i agree the market is so messed up no one is buying packs ... the prices are so high that those of us that farm cant afford refine or shard our gear... give us something to balance the economy make it where we have a chance to shard, refine, and enjoy the game before u lose more players ...

    I just wanted to point out that before packs....we combined gems to shard our gear with immacs and higher.

    I am sure the Company will figure out something to boost pack sales....

    The uncannies and raptures that the Aurora Agent provided were the main appeal of gambling with this NPC: even in the worst case you lost very little.

    Now that cannies & raps have crashed due to NW, this is hardly any more lucrative than opening packs.


    Besides, you posted it yourself; people are hardly opening packs. This would mean the supply on tokens is already low and the Aurora Agent would only make this even worse. If anything, this would only make things worse for the average player unless they change the NPC to accept coins instead of tokens.

    Canny rap prices cut in half so the tokens would be more like 15K ???

    Never underestimate the greed and stupidity of players b:chuckle. If it is a temporary event like last time, people will still gamble because the returns are still good on the gems.

    Personally i think the aurora agent will increase token prices, token supply will be reduced. All those f2p people who use crab meat, and herbs for hp/mp will start raging about how costly the bh run is.

    We need a pack with 10% chance to get anything other than tokens. b:angry
    You know. Id like a pack like this:

    51% chance to get 45 tokens of luck.
    30% chance to get an uncanny crystal.
    10% chance to get a Rapture Crystal.
    3% chance to get Platinum HP charm,
    3% chance to get Platinum MP charm,
    3% chance to get good stuff.

    still 91% chance to waste money, being that nirvy crystals are now as cheap as bananas.

    Aurora is useless now, it was beneficial for RR8 people to get eyes of darkness to reroll their gear but now you can get everything from NW forges and we don`t need raps and cannies anymore which have already over flooded the market.

    This is the exact reason we do not want the agent to return.

    as i remember from dreamweaver that time...aurora agent brought lot of dods,dots,vit stones and gems at market


    i can surely state there was little flood on dots especialy and price went down from 22m to around 15 m.


    i just wanna say its really dumb....where should people get money for like getting vit stones if they cost 55-60m each WTF o_o you know there are still people that are not cash players playing this game

    I`m not a cash player but imo you need to pay a lot for the good items especially since it`s very easy to make money in game, now even 100m is nothing compared what it was before, if you want the high tier items, you need to pay for them!

    Er wha, I'm confused why are ppl complaining about something thats only around 100mil or so now? Did they remove NW or something bc I'v been easily clearing 200mil per event night so far, everything seems really **** cheap now, 50-60 mil for a shard is nothing anymore.

    Im sorry but Packs still sell very good, its the increased demand for highlevel Refines that lead to current prices for Gems. I expect gems will raise sky high as soon people finished their Rap/Canny buissnes and looking for new ways to improve.

    Pfff, people used the NPC to get cannies/raps or r8r mats. But both are dirt cheap now.

    So yea, yay for no idiotic overpriced tokens. b:laugh

    And err, did you really expect people to spend on packs with the past sales and NW going hot?

    Riddle me this: if pack sales are down, why is the cost of tokens dropping?

    I'm a devotee of Adam Smith (supply and demand). The supply of tokens (on Sanctuary) seems not to have changed; moreover, downward trending token prices in cat shops suggests players are still opening packs.

    Just curious.

    I'd guess because people still open enough packs to keep up with the demand for tokens. Since there is a mark tokens will drop to, they're sort of capped at 10k. So they would stay around there, even if people would spam packs. o_o

    A few people had stored up about 50k~400k tokens, hoping for aurora agent. There was no aurora agent. There was a NW release, they immediately liquidated the tokens, bought raps and canny and are happy with r9 3rd cast gear.
