Authorreducing price of low level items?
Wait before you tell me off - read first.

I understand that the game has been developping over time, and where today the maximum level is 15, a while ago it was a few levels shorter.

At that time, no doubt that an item like ring of impetuosity was a state of the art high level item, and those +3% ini were just the little thing that would make the difference. Probably back then great hunter and beastbane sets didn't even exist, and the hoard accumulated in hunt was meant to be spent on these expensive items so that the economics of the game would turn (gaming law, when you have no other things or choices, you do spend on these kind of "tuning" things).

BUT:

I spoke of the ring, but could do the same for some hats, cloacks and so on: today things have changed, and those ex-high level items, when compared to hunter items or sets for same levels, become ridiculously outdated.

Higher level players get much better gear for a price that, when reported to utility and duration, has nothing to do with the one of these old items.

And new constructions and aims have been added, that make the player need more gold and ressources than he did earlier.

As a result, (close to) nobody takes the pain to buy or use them anymore, economic in those factories is pretty stall.

So my suggestion would be to reduce the price for some lvl 3-7 items to about 60-70% of what the actual is.
I'm talking about all the "marginal" items that we rarely see around, i could make a list, but probably everybody see already which ones.

This exclude more used items like amulet of luck, defender shield, light axe.. all the items whose price is already "reasonable".
+1 yup admins shud raise the price of lower 'min ap' items
+1
Do at least 500 more enrolls, you're way behind of what your LG should have. Imo, prices of arts should be raised

LOL, you are close to bankrupcy so this post does not fit to your actual economic situation.

BTW gratz for tgi:P
True, true ._. Arg, I need another 1k enrolls >< I still have some assets tho
-1
-1
no change is needed, the prices are balanced
What should your LG be at level 5-6?
half of combat level is reasonble LG level.
4/ OT.

(do people here get paid for OT comments, or is it a national sport? There are so many, in every thread..)


8/ then show me how many times you bought a ring of impetuosity and/or used it for your trades (visible in log).

Oh, look: Never. QED


9/ OT again but: whatever you want, as long as you can be self sufficient.

Understand that all these people telling you "this must be done so" are just blinding themselves in a one-way mass-vision of the game.
There are several other ways, and that's what makes a strategy game worth playing.

Actually a lot.
ring of impetuosity was my ring of choice between levels 5-9.
I bought a lot of them from the artifact shop and then sold them to empire at 0 durability.

I sell them on the market once in a while. People buy them.

I don't know what your problem with "ring of impetuosity" is. It's an excellent ring for it's level.
for guyb:

Flour is an experienced player, she doesnt need to show you nothing. If you cant afford an art....DONT buy it!

Your topic is kind OT in lordswm because as rules say, such topics asking for
getting something cheaper etc arent permitted.

And min ap sets are made for easy combats or for poor players, gain gold and youll have much more fun with that ^^really expensive^^ ring :P
1: flour is a lvl 15 player, sometime even accused of cheating (read around). Neither of these things make that an experienced player.

2) this is not a thread asking to get something cheaper, it was meant to be a reflection upon game economics needing tweakening after the game evolution. It's what has been done in all successful games, and it's also what has not been done in all failing ones. But I won't waste time explaining further since people can't give the effort to actually read what i wrote at first.

3) min set AP are not in cause either. Read again.

As of the rest, better lock, this thing won't get anywhere.
