Double xp, people are retiring & getting loompoints quicker.

The result of a free market. The offer and demand curve have shifted.

Allowing people to do a full respec in exchange for a loompoint(s) would go a long way to fixing loompoint inflation.

In situations like these i'd love to habe a +100 button.

...if there is loom point inflation.

Loom points have never been cheaper in two years.

Why?
Traders who don't own a marketplace booth don't trade loompoints for gold anyway.

BUY BUY BUY!!!

With seriusness thou I highly doubt the price will ever rise again, unless some fixed amount is agreed upon. Which is really no good.

unless some fixed amount is agreed upon.
Tried it, doesn't really work in the long run, because every new booth owner usually plays a smartass (hey they all offer 380k for a loompoint, I should offer 1 gold more) and fucks up the trading.
Agreeing with new people all the time gets way too tiresome.

Well loompoints are more the commodity and crpg gold is the currency (looms have real value ingame but crpg gold doesn't; I hope I'm displaying it correctly), whereas you see inflation/deflation usually from currency perspective. So the crpg gold becomes worth more, which is deflation, but I get what you mean now.

Clanarmory removed some of the demand for loompoints.

Not so tempting anymore to spend 3 points to loom some novelty item, when you can sell them points and bid on respecs for your lvl 36 main.

loompoints are used as a currency aswell to avoid most of the silly markedplacetax.

Loom points have never been cheaper in two years.


In the first few weeks they were actually cheaper, 250K would get you one before it quickly spiraled to the beloved all-time high of 500K+ and peopled wised up to what they were really worth, back in the day...
