of corse, im no sure, but is no like daimond 100 k in tradebroker like kTera when pach was applyed
people do maths, see how many pp need, gold, crits etc, and they have enough gold and time for do it ( cuz prices are the same for all NPC Stores in all Regions ).
I could be wrong but if EME continues doing the same mistakes on events maybe our inflation won't pass over the 200%.
If EME screw it and continue to give enchanting and crafting materials in bulks as in 2016 and this year then expect the rates won't even go over 150%.
Over these last years EME has killed the meaning of gearing up throught playing the main content of the game and created an spoiled comunity that only wants events to fulfil their needs regarding progression in-game.
That kind of desicion have made cash shop items to go up in prices mean while item drops from hight and top tier dungeons to drop its value.
I think is time EME think about it and stop to screw game economy with events like kyra and mongos, if anything Aniversary tokens event was way more balanced that any other event we had in these past 2 years.
If you're so unhappy about "faceroll" NA Tera, why you don't play on K-Tera with a VPN?
You can grind your life on this game and taste what feels to play with 200 ms ping, like 30%+ of NA population.
Did you ever asked if the majority of NA player base really want hardcore "oldschool 1999~2002's mmo" grind?
Maybe they just want to have fun with just a moderate grind, cuz they know that every 6 months gears and mats turns into trash in this game...
Btw, gold inflation is stable since idk when (maybe ~1 year) despite mongos and many events, cuz you know, MWA and FS are just commodities that everyone need to enchant stuff, and every 6 month there's new gear tier that halves everyone's FS ..
So, maybe EME was right with most of these events cuz they know this is a seasonal/theme park mmo which economy gets reciclyed every 6 months anyway and you guys are wrong cuz you think this is a old school mmo (like Lineage 2?) and gold/gear/mats will stay relevant even years down the line?
Back on VM5 days grind was simple (only +15 was end game, we got TAR, etc) but more actual fun content (alliance, crusades, leaderboards) and there was ~10K+ players by steamcharts, now there's more focus on pure grind (Dragons, HH grind, broochs, etc) and we got only ~1.4K players...
Less players ---> More P2W content ,and we already got Phoenix mounts coming..
Fact is, you guys are just a clueless but vocal minority here
Did you ever asked if majority of NA playerbase really want hardcore grind?
Maybe you are the vocal minority here?
No VPN makes my ping better, I already tried on many games.
And no, I don't like mindless grind but so far NA Tera have been giving players top tier gear without the need to run top tier content and even the posibility to get them up to +15 without runing the end-game content at all.
Also, I am not talking about majority or minority but stating my opinion, there is already a spoiled comunity, the size of it is unknow but you can see them here on forums often to cry about free material for them.
Once again, I dont care what you really think, I didn't came here to claim a represent a majority or minority of players in game, I am only giving my opinion on the matter, without trying to hid a taunt of personal argument behind meaningless questions.
This is IMO one of the biggest reasons tera didn't make it initially in NA.
They've had to dumb it down and make it easier progressively year by year because people were leaving for other games.
If the kters rates are not changed for the NA audience I cannot see many of the current players sticking around.
From october 2016 to February 2017 was the lowest iv ever seen the NA population. When Eme introduced farming events and alternative ways of getting gear besides 100x dungeon and made gearing a bit easier the population somewhat bounced back for a time.
They can see this themselves with logs. They can see what content people enjoy over others. Eme cannot just shrug that off and bring the exact same patch over. If they do they're dooming themself.
