what I am going at here, is that if you could just freely send your accessories to your characters the class accessory prices would be 1 million gold

Econ 101: Lots of bots = lots of cheap gold = gold lose value = prices rising.

Kudos to all the IQ999 people who think bots are good because they make fish cheap.

Basic of economic: If the overall money (in our case Gold) floods into a system, everything rises. If the gold would stay on bots and wouldn’t enter the circulation of the market (player traded), the prices wouldn’t increase in this kind of speed. But since RMT exist and people buying millions of gold for few hundred bucks, million of should-never-exist-Gold enters the economic system. That leads into an overall increase of the max gold circulating in the game.

The more gold circulating in the game = the higher the prices rise.

Solution: Cut off the possibilities from Bots to gain gold (Una mostly), punish RMT, give this game more gold sinks, make your ingame shop more attractive. If you compete with RMT and the value of cashing are equal to RMT, you will balance the market pretty soon.

Because: People would stop RMT, since the legal version is way better (No ban risk). Less RMT leads to less fake gold flooded into the system. Less fake gold leads to a regulation to the real inflation rate (Yes, we should have an inflation, our blue crystals should be around 1500-2000~). The only problem with that is. If the regulation hits, RMT becomes attractive again, and the BC prices needs to rise again to compete.

Another way would be: Change the exchangement rates. If you get f.E. 500 BC for 1000 RC, you get 15.000g for 10€. This would be a 1:2 exchange rate. We currently got an 1:2,5 exchange rate. That means: we make from 10€ (1000 RC) 12605 gold (3000g/95 bc). With the lowered exchangement rates, you get more gold for your money, which makes whaling way more attractive.

Also: Start to code your game more efficently. All of us are no bots. Stop punishing us. Those people that has spend money already in the game (like 1 month after the account got created), give them a trust status. Stop this 3 day delay for BC and Skins for us. This is a huge, a VERY HUGE downside of spending.

I don’t know how much a skin is worth in 3 days. I want to cash NOW, sell the skins I buy NOW and get my gold NOW. Not in 3 days!

That’s a very well made post.

I agree with everything you say. I really hope Smilegate sees how things work in the west and manages to implement a solution to those issues.

Sadly, Amazon just passin feedback on isnt going to be enough. I still dont understand why RMT accounts are not permanently banned. I had a few guildmadtes who after RMTing were banned for 1 month, then came back and everything was fine, like nothing had happened. This is not acceptable.

i was sentenced to half a year all in all i can say that it was a pretty good punishment if you think half a year i still light punishments i have nothing to say. I will not discuss why I was penalized. I just wrote this in response to your question

Thank you for sharing that. It looks like there are “tiers” of how severe the ban will be. That’s good to know.

I fear gatekeeping getting harder on new players. Old players will go:
“you don’t have all level 5 tripods? lol, you’re not playing with me. I got that so easy, literally 100% chance”

You’re welcome. but I was sentenced to half a year for buying 610k gold. but it seems that even cheaters who buy more gold than this amount don’t get the same treatment and it is true that some of them get light penalties for a really large amount of gold. I have rarely come across people who have been sentenced for as long as I have. Of course, this should not be accepted because everyone who commits the same crime should be treated the same. as you said then they would be more useful to the player community. these people bought 4 5 million gold and illegally and 1 month penalty is nothing. free vacation. However, everyone’s punishments vary, not everyone gets the same punishment, which is of course ridiculous. but I can say that the punishment systems are still not good enough, now I don’t know if there is a certain criterion or layers to increase the duration of the punishments.

I bus om 12 chars

What incentive is there to take a new player when 10 people are applying with max tripods?

Someone is getting declined regardless.

Might be in your best interest to quit and focus on your studies if you can’t afford 30-40k. That’s literally less than half a week of gold income :joy:

I don’t have the time to check your tripots. Also. How can you check them? Arent they in your skilltool. How will anyone know what lv your tripots are? As far as I know, the gear wont show tripots after the patch

How about we just remove the pheons?? Problem solved. Than nobody would have to take a bus because those low level accessories that never sell, would actually sell.

Almost every problem this game has is because of pheons…

True or not, LA is a F2P game and BC Heavy BC need. So cuz there is Pheons u can buy with BC. There are people that buy BC with Gold/RC.

So the Company gain money. If u would want to get rid of, u need something better idea or another system. So the company stil gain money.

No you don’t.

You all act like they aren’t making money off of:

Aura
Skins
Dyes
Pets
Mounts
Card slots
Gear loadouts
Card loadouts
Pet inventory space
Speeding up stronghold functions
Battle Passes
Mari’s shop

Like hy hell! And on top of all that shit, you have to pay a cash shop currency to use the AH or trade gear to your alts… And you suggest a replacement?? How about people just stop supporting predatory practices…

Fyi, I have spent money on this game in every category EXCEPT pheons. I don’t support that trash.

No im not deffending it if u think.

Like i said. Come with a Idea how to change this or it never happens.

For me persoanly i dont care about Pheons i buy them if i need and done.

125 Pheons whatever Price for Acc and ( Xxxx ) Pheons for Stones depends how lucky you are.
And your have 1 char finish atm.

And cuz its already 4+ years in the game i doubt it changes. People should start to accept it but this story drama is almost every week atleast once.

They might have made money short term but long term they are losing players. (not blaming this Pheon specifically) The approach becomes a short term gain at a long term loss.

Now everyone who was big on spending doesn’t need anything, they are pretty much roster capped and any new player that might want to spend see’s what they are up against and nopes right out to like Wow or something :rofl:

And yeah you are right, Pheon isn’t going anywhere, regardless of how many threads are created about it.

That’s the sad part because they are running this thing right into the ground. Steam charts are low and even most of them are bots.

I really hope they liked their short term gains because this game, at least outside of KR, is the next mmo away from death. My money is on Riots mmo killing a bunch of games. At least they know how to do f2p right.

I mean i gain Gold xxx Amount per Week. I think what i can do.

For Exampel i did 5x3 on my Scrapper alt Parked 1472. It was for Months 4x3 legy acc.

After finish buy Class Engraving, i tryd stone. Got lucky 3 trys 7/7. Now the fun begins. Buy 1k BC +/- for 125 Pheons. I use loa-todo for my Engraving setup. And then i buyd my Relic acc.

Now Scraper is 5x3 1472 Full Relic done. Cuz he was for Months Parked next step. Hone it to 1490 with +21 Weapon. And then next step doing each weak kakul.

Btw if done it with 3 other chars. Honing coming soon step by step. Done play and enjoy. Like always.

For my todays Vision 206k Bots and 857 Players, comon Steamcharts are usueless.
