Hey, Our morrigan economy is terrible! Have you noticed this? The reason why it is terrible is that people are undercutting prices so they get the sale making the undercut price the economic value. For instamce drag discs would still be 80k of people never ever undercut each other now they hardly go for 25k as the economy is so full of drags people dont want em.
This will happen with the plat items, I say no more selling Elixirs for 5 or 7k. Lets boost the 5k elixirs up every so often to get the economy backup to a healthy zone. It all starts with YOU!
Do what YOU think is right, just remember everytime you undercut someone that price sticks and lowers the economy, so if you want to sell that think again the price will be lower.

Don't you guys remember when super knowledge lix sold at 10k each??
Think of it this way. A super combo costs 40 plat, that's about a dollar , would you pay a dollar for 8-10k of ch gold? No way
Price per plat should be 500g

It's not a supply and demand issue, the issue is undercutting which causes a flood into the economy because as soon as the price drops, everyone sells stock to try and get out before it gets worse... The issue is idiots undercutting to get the sale

This is the reason that we need a AH auction house no more person to person selling. This would make the Econ much better! Because we have a lot of people saying this is as much as I got they throw up say2,435 and say will you sell it to me for this when they really have more that they could buy with!

All prices are volatile. Who ever said xp elixirs should be 10k? Or that drags are 100k?
Its all about the seller. Some just look for a quick sale. Some dont care if they make it easier for newbies to get a leg up in the game and some just dont know the value of item compared to the work behind obtaining those items.
Dragons should be dirt cheap anyway since they are guaranteed drops. They are so much easier to get than elms
A person who bought plat and was given $100 by their mommy would simply sell elixirs for 4k each, while someone who actually earned the $100 by working would maximize their profits and would try to get the most from it.

Last time I checked 100 dollars spends the same whether it comes from selling crack or earning via paycheck. I have started obtaining discs and I might flood the market with 10k discs just to do it.

ahh derp, such naïveté. you totally missed the point. perhaps when you start going out in the real world, you'd see that the $100 dollars you actually earn yourself would mean more to you, and you wouldn't spend it so freely compared to the $100 dollars your mommy just gave you.

ok, I guess that me being a middle aged man, with a mother who died when I was three, I own my own home and fully support my family as the sole income provider, and have money left over to play this game means absolutely nothing. Once again, I like my way of interpreting words. It has worked well so far in my life which is out here in the real world, not in your Eutopian mind.
But then again I just don't have the time to be a "hardcore" gamer. Buh-buy now I gotta go get intimidated by your mind-numbed robots who follow aimlessly not having a backbone to tell you what a douche you are.

lol for a middle-aged man, you sure don't act like it. I played with 13-year olds I swear are more mature than 40 year old players I've met. A gamer's age is how they act in game, real life age or circumstances mean nothing, you should know that by now, but then again, may be you don't. Such a bitter person you are. And another dig on avalon members that you pretend you aren't doing. tsk tsk.
I certainly hope you are enjoying this game with your attitude. How's that working so far?
