Does Green economy seem odd?

100% ZEM outdoors, 150% on dungeons. Problem solved.

I really wish they would do this. sick of being pigeonholed into the same places time and time again.

And I don't even want to see the rotating hotspots to be honest like they had (have?) on live. that just means the contention won't go away. It will just change every now and again. They really need to spread it out.

And you would just move the current situation in the hole to Seb. Which, I'm pretty sure is exactly why the devs funneled everyone into the hole. You can group for exp, or you can group in the other odds and ends Kunark dungeons for loot; you can't have both.

Doesn't seem true. If people can XP and get loot, they will. but eventually that XP spot is eventually gonna fill up and people will populate other viable options. Problem is people only think of the optimal spots with high zem as viable. People are more willing to sit in a spot with a high zem and wait hours for an opening in a group rather than move to a second spot with a lesser ZEM where nobody goes. Can't tell you how many times I, as a druid, unable to get a group in a hotspot go to other technically viable options for my level only to find the zone practically empty.

I bought nearly a full set of Loam armor on my chanter then watched some of the pieces I bought fluctuate down -200pp in price in the next few weeks as sellers got desperate, I’m kind of kicking myself now about it because I know that stuff is going to come way the hell down as time goes on with how much of it is being circulated. Lots of supply, low demand

"After all we end up on blue" is still pure speculation anyway. It has not been confirmed or denied yet.

I don't agree with this. The only information we have is that green will roll into blue. It's actually speculation to suggest that it won't. The only evidence and statements that we have from the GM's is that it will

Water Flasks and Rations continue to be the same price they always were.

For everything else, you're paying for feelings.

Feelings are priceless.

Economy is fine.

There is one other potential "fix" that doesn't involve boxing, which would simply allow the EC channel to have some global broadcast functionality. This would be a stronger divergence from classic than allowing an EC mule, but eliminate any concerns about boxing.

Blue had global chat when population was low. A 1,000 person chat room is a recipe for disaster though.

Years ago I was going to make a complex auction tracker that had a live stream of the chat log, would match people, alert on price triggers, show historical trends, etc. Actually I did make it but keeping the character logged in constantly proved too tedious. It would only last a few days at most and per rules couldn't be fully automated to log back in on it's own.

A lot of people are using these tools privately. Much better stuff than anything the Wiki attempts to do. That is another part of why things are so messed up. A public tool that had better recent data would help a ton.

Imagine if you could auction one time in EC and be sure it was logged and displayed on a site like the wiki. Players could search a specific item and instead of getting historical data from a week ago they would see stuff from hours ago.

Buyers can find who has what they want and at what price. Sellers don't need to stand around auctioning for hours.
