Not in GW2. There is a lot I don’t like about that game but their economy model was amazing. I haven’t played for about 3 years so maybe something went terribly wrong in that time but for 6-7 years pretty much everything sold and never went down.
Meanwhile FF14 is on the opposite side of the spectrum. I never knew an economy could even be that bad. The supply >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> demand ratio is ridiculous.
In every other MMO it does. New AddOn? Thavnian Onion in FF14 (ONLY needed to upgrade a chocobo companion over level 10) goes from 160k to 500k and 2 months later back down. WoW? New shit goes for 100g per flower and goes down to 20g 2 months etc.
Blue crystal prices have tanked too, im saying with the deflation of gold prices everything else has deflated too, when i pushed 1370 destruction stones were 110g per 10 now they are what 26? Blue crystals were almost 900g per 95 now its like 450ish? The real expense for end game honing isnt even gold, its silver.
He is making less gold but at the same time gold is worth more now then it was a couple weeks ago.
How is this going to prevent you from buying skins? Since gold is more valuable and market is deflating, skins will just cost less on the market now then before. It literally changes nothing.
I have 3 characters in t3, 9 in t2, all of them over 900GS. I don’t buy mats, I have enough income to feed my toons. I don’t even have enough gold to keep up with my honing.
Just don’t tier 3 hone after 1340, it’s not worth your time or money. It wasn’t even before all the gold left the market. Sell Tier 3 materials until the next substantial patch, there’s your gold.
Leapstones is really the biggest factor. And I ended up selling solar protections for solar graces (more cost effective per honing chance). But with the crazy amount of unas task +1 from vendor, it makes getting great honor leapstones a joke. You can get like 20-30+ daily.
