What do you even do at this point? The economy in pretty much every region is boned. The bots donât hardly advertise anymore, thereâs little to no exploitation left for them. They just amass Una gold from 1000âs of accounts and sell it. If our RC price goes up their price goes down. They perpetually keep the cost at 50%. The accounts holding most of the gold are likely hidden away or its split amongst multiple accounts.
Theyâd need to hire a professional economist to even begin to try to remedy these issues and even then its a big doubt theyâd be able to. The economy is boned and is unlikely to become unboned for a very very long time if ever. Pretty much every piece of gold in the market these days is âdirty moneyâ If you use the AH you have âdirty moneyâ outright. Thereâs just too much in circulation and every time someone buys gold and converts it to BC it hikes the price up. Even if they get banned it wonât change the damage theyâve already done. The damage RMT does doesnât end at the purchase every thing they do with it has a rippling effect that can damage or change the entire economy. Just look at that one RMT Chinese streamer the forums caught a few weeks back. He single handedly up ticked the price of GHL and they never went back down. Weâre still seeing the lasting effects of the initial RMT pandemic that crashed through this game in its early months.
Iâve accepted the game is unsalvageable gonna wait till Ancient gear and see if i wanna deal with pheons still . Fundamental systems will never change unless kr makes a big stink so its almost pointless.
There are plenty of whales supplying the crystals. The thing is, as was stated here, what whale wants to lose gold/$. They just wonât sell below a thresh hold because they know the value of BCâs and what people need them for. Iâve actually swiped more now that the BC prices are higher, because before it was purely advantageous to the f2p player and not at all of value to me, the payer.
What SG/AGS can do is adjust the royal crystal to blue crystal conversion rates.
Donât see why theyâd stay put and never adjust. That is the way the devs can help circulate more blue crystals, and people buying royal crystals can still get a good rate.
For one, why does it take like 200 royal crystals for 95 blue crystals to be generated?
You know ⌠Blue Crystal exchange place is a player driven market means if it sound like itâs ânot in a good state right nowâ itâs probably because of the players theimselves, not because of the game.
Yep, you can only blame your own community if you feel like the current state of Blue Crystal market is not good.
There are outside factors that have been mentioned that youâre ignoring.
Lots of people RMT, everytime that happens itâs a possible spender that is not spending on the game directly (royal crystals). Now they have gold that was generated from bots (at a better rate than in-game shop) and they can use this gold on blue crystals.
More gold in market = inflation. RMT gold = less royal crystals = less blue crystals.
This is a dev and publisher fueled issue, that is affecting the âsupply and demandâ player driven market.
well, we need to make whales sell their rc at a lower price like 1000g or lower
if they all sell at that price we can purchase bc at 1000g too
so lets make a petition to all whales to start selling their gold at 1000g or lower!
As far as I know, the cost of pheons gets worse when ancient accesory arrive. if you want to buy a ancient accessroy i think it would cost you 55 pheons or 50 pheons
This is simple supply and demand. The threshold is what it is because thatâs where supply meets demand. If there were more whales supplying crystals they couldnât sell the excess without lowering prices. Why are the t1 honing fragments 1 gold? Because there are 100 000 offers with no one taking them, so it goes down to the minimum possible. At launch whales were buying them to level instantly, and the price was much higher as a result. Itâs the same with everything.
The thing is, there isnât a supply shortage, and if you look at any market, there is already excess sitting at a higher price because the supplier wants more gold. This isnât just basic economics. The market is finally in the hands of the seller, and not the hands of the buyer. We know that whatever we list the prices at, the product will sell because itâs a necessity in LA, not a commodity. Just like the housing market IRL, there isnât a shortage of homes and yet prices are going up, because the value of the homes have gone up. You get the same home but for more now because a home is a necessity, not a commodity and doesnât fall in the same supply and demand chains that you seem to wish to tout about.
There is an increase, but it isnât that steep. Itâs 35 per ancient, not even close to 50 or 55. Letâs not start spreading misinformation and fear mongering.
Yes, this is what happens when there is a supply shortage. Prices go up. This is literally how all trading works on any exchange. Log on to your bank and trade anything from stocks to commodities and you will see exactly this system.
I donât know your housing market, but speculation can cause artificial shortages where people are holding on to an asset (such as a house) because they expect to sell it for a higher price later.
Itâs both. What you are talking about here is price sensitivity. Price sensitivity measures the magnitude of the change in demand caused by a change in price.
