    What server are you people playing on that has increased alk prices? It's literally been the same price for two weeks on MT.

    CH has MWA for 50-60g atm cause of this event.

    When the double drop event ended, it dropped back to 40-45g.

    It's not that bad. I think it was just a speculative price increase, and not indicative of actual supply.

    I'm not a new player.
    I farmed TAR on 4 characters.
    I saved my boxes and used it to +15 exclusively.
    TAR is gone and the economy is different. However, don't you remember last weekend when they lowered enchantment costs and people were complaining about the feedstock shortage? Well this weekend is the same but with alkahest. Alkahest is ~50g each for MWA, its normally sub 40g.

    If you understood the economy as well as you profess, you should be able to take advantage of the price volatility to get some gold towards your next +15 set, no?

    MWA used to be like 100g. Why are people even crying about this, alk has never been easier to get than now. I do 2 days of dailies and get like 500 MWA. Like hello????? Why is this even a problem when if you just run some dungeons and kill some bams you can make ~1500 MWA per week playing extremely casually?

    Sorry you can't get +15 full Imperator 3 weeks into a patch that's supposed to last at least 7 months, but that's how it's supposed to be.

    150 Strongbox keys later and not a single Feedstock...
    100 Locked Extensive Alkahest Boxes
    25 Locked Spellbound Lockboxes
    25 Locked Pocket Pet Strongbox

    Not 1 Tier 8 or Tier 9 Feedstock from any of these boxes...
    That's 8085 EMP or roughly 80 Dollars wasted and not a single Feedstock to show for it....

    I like this event. I can stockpile while I can for alts and do up my main. I never buy MWA and with the double VG event I can maintain a few chars with decent gear to be able to farm for VG.

    I understand why people are not happy with the alk situation, but like everything it depends on how much you want to work for it. However, when the double VG event goes away, it will hit me pretty hard as I feel like I'm making just enough now to warrant a few enchants before I have to go back to grinding which I've always done.

    Either way, F2P events will always be a double edged sword, just get what you can for now as it's more than before!
  • In regards to not knowing what it takes to +15... I am 410 failed attempts into +14 to +15, I think I know a thing or two about this hell.

    I hear often enough to talk of the cost of feedstock and the cost of MWA, gear designs. I should remind players that these events where put I place for those that do NOT rely solely on the broker, yet do pve for their needs. To those that do such things as PVE mainly, it is pointless to them to just rely only on broker. They would ask themselves, "What's the point of doing a dungeon when I can get it in broker for so much gold.?" The game is not about the broker only.

    I see these statements quite often and felt it necessary to bring back to the front, those that do not focus solely on the broker. I understand the brokers needs, I do. I see tones of people daily all day by the broker and not much doing anything else except the occasional que to only put what the get from the dungeons in the broker for those that don't want to pve at all. Get rich from those that don't do pve and pvp only. That's the mindset. Let them P2W=Pay to win.

    Not much else really needs to be said on the matter. Everyone has their opinion. The issues we had were with feed stock to begin with from the dungeons. It simply was not enough to a lot of people doing the dungeons.

    Keep this in mind. It is so easy now to get to level 65 in a weeks time if you literally play all day long. So amazingly easy. The XP granted is through the roof. XP OP. Those that play only acouple hours a day due to RL WORK. Kudo's. Even still it does not change that fact Spending a couple hours a day you can get to level 65 in two weeks. TWO WEEKS.

    With that said remember how much fod you get from those dungeons, remember how much fod you get from kill open world monsters. Remember when you get cut off from that fod due to your level being too high.

    It's a psychological thing to have what you had when you were low level. It is not mean to be super easy at end game. You don't beat the game now it's about end game content, to be the exarch or to be the best guild with the best castle etc. This end game stuff is not meant to be super easy. It's meant to be reasonable and logic in it's rewards for your daily returns to the game.

    MWA was never that expensive lol.

    BTW, someone on my Server has full VM7 +15 as of 3 days ago, so better think what you know already.

    I'm sorry, but the supply of Alkahest really is not in trouble at all.


    Double Vanguard Rewards make it extremely easy to acquire MWA used for Awakened Enchanting. Keep in mind, +15 isn't supposed to be easy, and honestly acquiring MWA has been very easy in the last few days. Also, please don't compare any of this to TAR, which was completely broken and shouldn't have been in the game.

    Prices only have been slightly increasing because of the demands of a new patch, when prices of basically all enchanting mats go up. I don't see an issue with the MWA supply right now, it's normal for a new patch.


    That person who has full +15 VM7 on our server acquired all of their enchanting mats running DS Uppers (they have around 100 clears of DS2), they are bound to be swimming in resources for consistently farming the most difficult dungeon in the game (and they should be rewarded accordingly). If you want more MWA right now, just keep farming IoD.

    For the whole duration from after Tera went f2p until the removal of wma drop in LoT/KN/ET/... (approximately two years) mwa was THAT expensive (actually more like 120-130 range in MT). Tera had become way too casual you can never imagine. There used to be something called "gearing procession" where you have to climb slowly from lower gear to higher tier for the whole duration of one gear patch (6-12 months), and not jump straight into getting BiS gear right off the bat.

    Casual ppl has been spoiled way too much they start to think they deserve to be the best just by playing casually. Do you think you deserve what the top players have ? Get real, you're just a nobody.

    There is no need for an alkahest event. If you can't farm dungeons or IoD on one or multiple characters, then that's your own fault. I have max credits on one character, one can only imagine how much alk that will be.
