Wushi 216 Report post Posted January 21 In fact, after all that has been said, no one has mentioned how much these level - 146 equipments should be worth and how to evaluate their value. Many items here have been deliberately bid up by merchants. The higher they are speculated, the bigger the bubble. And when the price drops, it will be more tragic. In reality, we can see that this is how typical bubble bursts occur. Therefore, if you want to minimize your losses on the items you buy, you need to buy them at a low price and leave a sufficient margin of safety. If you don't have the ability to accept losses, then don't buy. Essentially, all the investments in this game amount to zero (because you can't get your investment back), so you must have a good mentality. I hope that when new equipments come out next time, you won't pay too high a price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"In fact, after all that been said i decided i will simply ignore It ALL and will keep defending my stuff hehehe" I'm waiting for you to say something about selling your account and not playing the game for 1 month and then buying another stronger account that also depreciated paying the same price you got paid for your weaker account 1 month before becoming the new best strategy to get some levels up + better gears + free change class. I want to see you saying this is good and explain why. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well i don't know how long you play PT. but on main game "ept" it was like that, and it was very well balanced. there were XP Maps for lvl caps, and there were hunting maps for lvl caps also. if XP Pilot camps 24/7 in XP Map, is ok, he gets the reward for XPING the char, and has no chance to drop high level item. while hunting, gives you little EXP, and some chances to get value items. + now we have something we did not have on main server, Caves, going Cave you gain good XP and chance to get SPECIAL items, like Ex-Drill etc.. it's like Cars 🙂 you can't have car for everything, there is a 4x4, sports car, family and so on.. you have to switch between them to enjoy haha. same with maps... it is just not fair for XP Pilots to have advantage to get high value items while camping in XP map... imagine the opposite ? if i go hunting, and i gain very high XP ? so let's just begin char 160 and play fully gear +24 all 😛 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At the time, there was no exp service, because there was no demand or people didn't organize themselves for it in time. Besides, a lot of this remembering that "it used to work, it used to be better" comes from nostalgia, because people have memories of times that will never come back and that they lived in different ways. You are not the same person who played in the EPT era, and you certainly have other obligations and views on many things today, but that does not affect the nostalgic view of the game. You also didn't argue about this, you just stated that it will be better, it doesn't prove that whoever pays for exp service won't have an advantage in a system with 2 maps (exp and up), since he can put his character 24/7 in the service on exp map, while he goes hunting on another character of his.

I want to see you saying this is good and explain why. In fact, I don't really care. I've entrusted my two accounts, level 169 and level 166, to a service. Whether there is an increase or decrease doesn't matter to me. I've also bought and sold some accounts. Since I bought them at relatively low prices, I basically didn't lose money when I sold them. Only some equipment resulted in losses, but not much, because the prices I bought them at weren't high, and I didn't buy items with extremely high prices. I think those prices are unreasonable. I pay what I can afford, and if it exceeds my budget, I won't buy it. When 140DNT only costs 4 - 5kc, I don't understand why 146 costs several hundred kc.

Just to start, you are showing you are exp service costumer and saying without a shame you don't care about item depreciation, this is awesome. 16 minutes ago, Wushi said: Whether there is an increase or decrease doesn't matter to me.

And then you complete It by saying even though you ""don't care"" about depreciation, you bought and sold some accounts in order to defend your good from depreciation and buy other player's deprecreciated goods. This shows clear How much you don't care. Say the true. You want the situation to keep as It is because you are making use of super cheap exp service... 😑 Edited January 22 by ace1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This shows clear How much you don't care. Say the true. You want the situation to keep as It is because you are making use of super cheap exp service... 😑 First of all, over the years, I've bought and sold some accounts not for the purpose of making a profit. In fact, I didn't make any profit. I basically sold the accounts at the purchase price, either to friends or members of my clan. I bought these accounts because I had no available accounts to use. Secondly, although the cost I'm paying for account - boosting services is decreasing, it doesn't mean that my accounts aren't depreciating. I know my accounts are losing value, but I can accept it. If I couldn't, I would sell them early to minimize my losses. So, I don't understand what you're talking about. 10 minutes ago, Wushi said: First of all, over the years, I've bought and sold some accounts not for the purpose of making a profit.

However, I can indeed understand that the process of deflation is extremely tough, as all prices are falling. I'm just offering a friendly reminder that if you buy anything during a bubble, the potential losses could be substantial. Therefore, you need to have your own valuation system and a good mindset, and make purchases at a price that is relatively reasonable for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TadsK 48 Report post Posted January 30 This is normal in every MMORPG, prices are dependent on supply and demand as well as cost of upgrades (aging/mixing) It is only normal for item prices to come down since more people are at the level where they can drop them more often (more supply) and there are not an influx of new players in the server (lower demand). So as more and more people stop playing and try to sell their items and the people that stay already own these items, their price will decrease. The best way to maintain the prices in an MMORPG is make sure the influx of new players keep demand high and follow the progression of the supply. If you try to control on the supply side (very very low drops), player experience is hindered and you risk more players leaving the game, which makes things worse. The people that want the newer and better items before everyone else will always pay the premium and then prices tend to come down, that is natural. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
