The Pheons effects on game economy and player experience

Then why was the comment directed at me?I’m not the one asking for your bank details lol.I think you might have missquoted me then.

You sir are a liar, I’m just back from my second ban and for no reason except speaking the truth about your monetization schemes while the people that were actually offending me (not that I care) were not banned and are still using the forum, you BAN people with “different opinions”, you definitelly are not happy with it and would rather nobody ever saw it.

pheon. one, you kill 15 hours a day with the alts, two with real money. in the euw the glass is 960 gold, a more than affordable price. In fact too much, it is not profitable to sell real crystals or buy blue ones with real money if it is not with the initial offers. But what will you have to use if you use the express being new because they leave you with a measly 2000 gold. Until 1370, good luck farming anything, no super lvl will enter to trivialize the encounter. In the end, there is the feeling that either you pay or you return to the starting box before reaching the final content.

Its not necessarily something we have to live with if we have enough people speaking up about the problem that makes AGS/SG reconsider how they monetize their game in the west.

I think the main issue also is because of how bots have caused the crystal exchange to crash because people find it acceptable if the exchange rate was lower and now the prices are inflating to astronomical prices, 4x the amount of what it used to be that have caused a strong reaction to pheons. It has gone way beyond the point of tolerable.

last I check it was something like 1.2k on NAE servers.

Like we might not be inflating as fast as SA servers for some apparent reason but we are slowly climbing up there. The prices show no signs of dropping and everyday our gold is worth less and less

1400 gold for 95 blue crystals on Eu central servers…

Can you imagine no pheon cost on rocks. They would be 20x the price.

“Things will happen this way trust me my crystal ball told me so.”

If thing are getting expensive like this i wonder whether Arkesia deserve to be save.

Maybe in near future kids within families have also to pay if they want to play games.

Gaming nowadays became a big piece of shieet

Has nothing to do with “crystal ball”…it just makes sense. If people could spam stones infinitely without pheon cost the prices would be nuts.

If nobody buy it because is to espensive, they will lower the price… Another thing, i prefer to pay 1k instead 500 gold if i know the gold go to seller and not for a stupid extra mega tax…

I love it when people cite themselves.

Today 09/01 the crystal reach 3k…

And still exist ppl who defend pheons…

Pheons at their core are just tax… and nobody likes paying taxes ever…

For sure, because there isn’t a problem with the system. Just because YOU have a problem with it, doesn’t mean there IS a problem. Tomorrow I will buy GvG gear for my main, it is going to cost close to 15k gold in pheons to do so. The total cost of the build without Pheons? 6k gold. Do I have a problem with that? No. Why would I? It is a part of the game, a part of the game that isn’t going anywhere. The sooner people stop whining about it and just accept the reality that it will continue to be a system in the game, the better cleaned forums can be.

Your ability to give into a broken system depresses me where is your fight your courage man! Courage!

A stupid part of system… If you have tone of gold and for you is not a problem to gear 100 alts, dont mean all have your gold and your time. This game start lose many players, new players are going to give up because they cant make accesories, stones, can`t gear alts and never get closer to the end content… Pheon stop your progress, make you to think why a tax is bigger than product price with 1000% 1500%? is this normal? no, is not but who have to much gold, dont care about other ppl… When this game will have only 50k players, maybe they will change something and they will stop punish f2p players and new f2p players.

tbh. I would like to see 1 change about pheons… and in my opinion would actually help alot… amazon should make our aura give some daily rewards on top like on russia with some minor rewards ( on russia best reward is prolly 3 pheons daily for free… thats like 90 pheons from full aura )… so russian aura gives next stuff on daily basis: 5 green potions, 1 res feather, 1 purple rapport, 3 pheons, 1 una task fast completion and box with some materials to chose ( choose between solar protection, normal honor leapstones and small things like that )

and for me this would be great deal… and im sure majority of people gonna like this change because it makes aura more worth to buy for gold nowadays in blue crystal inflation
