Market fucking

[AwesomeHail]

As some of you might have noticed, the market has been destroyed, by none other than Dave and some other dudes who only trade and want to suck as much money out of people as they can.

The price of current loompoints has gone up so much now, so much that the average player will not be able to buy a loompoint.
Masterwork prices have also gone up, but those are still doable


what to do against these massive douches?

maybe this had to be in a different topic, I have no clue

I just woke up, I might be bitching, forgive me if you think this is unjustified

Didn't someone sell like 30 loompoints for 200k each? Whoever did that completely fucked the mods economy. Everyone is trying to make profit off them.

I think the best and most simple solution to this would be making ''Reforge'' option give us 3 loompoints instead of 2 per item. We have definetly lesser players playing this mod than used to and it effects marketplace aswell.

Marketplace is in pretty bad condition at the moment there aren't much items/sellers and when you are trying to find an item you need, most of the times you either can't find it or find offers cost you more than they actually worth. It's quite hard to find a fair offer in the marketplace. I'm not telling this towards anyone, this has been an issue for very long time in my opinion.

Changing ''Reforge'' option to give us 3 loompoints instead of 2 will give all of us chance to try different builds and different weapons more easily if people think 3 loompoints are too much let's make that option cost 100k gold or something like that. This might also cause more loompoints going around in the market and might even lower the loompoint prices, but i am not sure about the last thing.

or just have 1 heirloom exchange per 3 days?

I forgot to mention that the gold increase per tick with last update probably had an effect on heirloom point prices but as i said, unfair offers in the market has been an issue for long time.

Edit : Thanks for making a thread about this btw.

It is basic of economy. Look how much devs buffed gold gain. More money you put in circulation, the lesser value it have.
There wasn't any lp in market for 2 days, only Routier Odo had one, i think,  but there was at least 10 guys who wanted to buy lp. When you have aggregate demand that is higher then offer - price goes up until demand and offer get balanced. I think lp price will be stabilize in day or two on price of 600-650k for a lp.
In long term they must increase gold sink because i can make 70k of gold for like 3 hours of playing crpg and that will decrease value of gold and increase prices of lp and items.

That is indeed the root cause. It fucked up banner prices dearly as well.

You may have noticed that I am not playing anymore. All I do is make sure that my clannies can keep playing under the clan banner. During the latest banner auctions, however, shit just got fucked up. I guess it was 2 weeks ago or something. Usually, you would see prices as high as 250k and the amount would drop after a week. You could end up with a banner slot for 150k at worst. But holymotherfuckingdalailama, I have seen a persistent pricing trend of around 500k this time.

Just as you thought "Mod is unalive, who would even bother paying so much for a banner slot?", you see this outrageous shit.

If money isn't a problem like this anymore, do something about it. Maybe stop charging for banner slots, no? People like me, who aren't playing anymore but still have to tend to their clans, are in a tough situation when capitalism is so unleashed.

If you guy want to do something for the marketplace just throw all your items from the clan armoury into the market.
If you have to trade your loomed items if you want to try something new instead of just borrowing what you need from the armoury the market will be much more vivid.
Without armouries there would be hundreds of +3 vs +3 offers out there.

Loompoint for 800k  : : : jeeez it deserve a ban. Even with increased gold per tick it's a two weeks of very solid play.

I can make like a 100k after playing a couple of hours. Remember after a short break I looked at my gold total and wondering where the extra 100k came from. And if you want to complain about loom prices, you can put up your own looms for cheaper prices if you want. The fun part of a player economy is that it isn't any one player who decides how much something cost. (at least heirloom part of it.)

Someone else woud buy them and sell them for far more, i learned that the hard way s:

[Oberyn]

Inflation is obviously from gold gain being bumped up so high with last patch, not from 20 looms being put on the market, as others have pointed out.
Also, most people use the market very rarely and only because they want to use a new loom or sell an old one, and this is achieved much more easily by simply joining a clan with a large armory. Then there's the people for whom the marketplace is a mini metagame in itself, "only trade and want to suck as much money out of people as they can" is pretty much the goal and how they "win" at it. Using other's impatience and/or ignorance is the only way to do it.
