The economy before where mats sell for 100-500 gold each is better than our current economy where mats sell for 2-30 gold each. At least before you are motivated to do your dailies as you are seeing big returns for your efforts. now adays even rest bonus isnt even worth doing anymore.
Also another thing is with the inflated economy you have the option of using the mari shop to save you tons of gold. Nowadays the mari shop is a scam and you dont have any options to push your characters in a cheaper way.
Raw gold for honing didnt decrease too only the mats. New players are suffering from this gold shortage as eventhough the mats are cheap they dont have the gold or the way to get gold for them to do that 300 per tap cost.
Another thing is during the inflation your heart is still skipping a beat whenever you get a good or bis engraving. People like seeing big numbers and it also applies to gold. Now adays even if you get a semi bis item you are just like meh ok nice i got one.
All in all the inflated econmy before evens out on your way to generate gold unlike now it is all messed up as your gold generation cant even keep up with your honing cost. only the mats became cheaper the other thing stayed the way they are aka oreha fusion and other stuff like bis or semi bis accessories. dont get me started with pheons and blue crystals
inflation brings life to the server. reason you guys are getting burned out as there is no reward for the effort you are putting on your dailies
What I dont understand is the whine about raw hone cost. Developers designed certain gold income for individual player and matched it with some sense to honing cost. Whats the issue with that?
I gain gold by raiding, sometimes an accessories that sell for 20 000 gold drop. Sometimes grudge engrave book, sometimes legendary map in chaos gate. I gain gold by selling potion too. Sometimes a golden gate in chaos dungeon, or a legendary engrave book in chaos dungeon. I’m doing compass island for gold too. I got a legendary engrave book in the cube yesterday, 7 000 gold. You can also sell some items the day they are selling for more.
With the current market you need some luck or 6+ character (better chance to get an accessory that sell for 20 000+). Now its like in Korea all player need to have alt for big gold.
I agree Chaos dungeon are now less rewarding since you now need luck. And there is better chance for a burn out.
my method: I use 3 different characters every 2 days. I don’t like using the same character everyday
Sure it might be good for everyone who is ahead of the curve and already got to abuse these things, but for newer players or for people who haven’t managed to buy all the things they wanted before… it’s just bad.
Now all of the market is run by people who gain massive amounts of gold and anyone who is trying to catch up will have a hard time, so it is just bad for the health of the game. You also mention some of these negatives and still try to say that it is good, what?
That is what im saying with the petty change the new players make at the moment there is no way for them to make gold. I tried it and tested with my 3rd roster and it really is hard to make gold. I cant even do regular taps daily since the tap of raw honing cost is absurd. the gold from oreha and argos is not enough to sustain it
When this content was new in KR, their numbers in raw gold reward was higher than what we have. The numbers we have now are the KR post-inflation gold rewards.
This must be extremely old if it has Kaiser and Mystic in it. I did that content back in RU and was removed quite a while ago.
I would have to dig but a Korean player could probably confirm it. It was said in one of Saintone’s videos when he was talking to his friend and they were wondering why NA players were complaining about gold when our Argos provided more gold than it does in KR.
So I just did 4 one taps now and Imagine how much gold i lost 2k. how much weekly gold do i earn per week on argos and oreha combined. like 4k? now how do you expect a person who just hit 1370 to do legion raids without the means of getting raw gold. even the prices of oreha doubled from 7 to 13 atm, prices of blue crystals are at an all time high of 1k+. this kind of inflation should be matched by the inflation of mats too but no they still stayed at 2-30 each. now this is getting out of hand
at what point of the game in the last 6 months did wages stay the same? going and doing your dailies = your wages. some people work for 30 minutes, some work for 8 hours. mats were the most inflated thing out of all the items available on the store ever since relics came out so your wages were the most inflated since thats what you’re paid by doing your dailies. being able to afford rare items like accessories and gold books before was easier because your wages were inflated.
weeklies were effectively a side job since they paid less than dailies. you not selling your mats is effectively you getting high on your own supply and your inability to make gold != everyone’s problem
