ok why does it show -20% taxes (i went to rev6) can fortress war commanders and guild input the taxes in the game so that means everything from pots to weapons cost less in that server right?

Yah... Costs us nothing to run it on -20%... Way to stick it to JOYMAX! Seems like we're the only ones doing it... Been set to that for a while now... Unless previous stash runs dry, we do 2 weeks of 20%...

Is good.

We do it cuz it keeps the traders interested lol.

And gold aint no thang.

And until now, most the players on Troy seem to be happy with the -20% tax, since everyone can benefit from it, not just our union.

Sadly.. there is no gold bots.(even at -20%.) There may be, but it isn't to the point where you're ganna make close to a bil 2 weeks like before. Now Troy makes around 200mil for 2 weeks... 200mil to make a single person happy or 200mil make the server somewhat happy. We chose server.

Does that reduce the price on stuff? Would be cool cuz you could buy stuff from merchant and then sell back for profit. I'd go on Troy and make myself 100 Bil right now if it does....

That's really good then. It doesn't benefit the goldbots, as most of them are way higher in level, and it benefits players. Doing this could be good in Venus as it will lightly encourage going Chinese, but I think we still have goldbots in China. It can also boost jobbing in the server.

It did boost jobbing, but for only the first 2 weeks. After that not many people bother.. sadly. Users are happy since they do get 200k more gold off every mil. That's what its for.. to npc your shit at jangan for 20% profit on selling items, typhoons(Save 40k/vigor), and vigors(Save 200k/stack)

be cool and set it to like 5%, make money and not make it brutal for new chinese noobs, and it would make trading from dw to jg not worthless any more

That wouldnt benefit anyone but the holder of the fortress. Negative %'s are what benefit others, that's why we have it at -20%.
