Well. I always thought that which ever server you choose, you will find basically the same economy prices. But this isnt the case at all. The oasis server for one. The prices for elixirs items and weps and sos ect have shot up by nearly double in recent months. I expected this to be true on all servers. But it isnt.

Eldorado sells for half of oasis' prices.

This is down to GREED and greed makes prices rise permanently over time.

So if you have just started this game and you no you will struggle with gold. Start on Eldorado or find out which is another cheap server.

"Im sure that Oasis isnt the only other overpriced server. It makes the game near impossible to have a good char build and its just WRONG. You wouldnt find a game where prices are fixed at these high costs. Its the gamers who have dun it and its gota be fixed sumhow.

EXAMPLES in OASIS i found .

Wep elixirs average is about 250-290k
I found alot of lvl 16 sos bows+3 selling for over 10 mil

EXAMPLES IN Eldorado

Wep elixirs go for around 170k i couldnt sell mine for 160k!
Sos lvl 16+3 bows sell for around 2-4mil

Big differences and this is only for wep elixirs and sos bows not including everything else.

Geting hold of 1 mil in a short time is hard for most so dont be stupid and join OASIS or any other GREEDY ******* in some servers.

Yes GREED makes it hard for the other players. If you don't want to want the economy to get f***'ed up then DON'T buy gold, if you did you have no right complain about the economy cause your are the one that made it worst.

It's not greed it's the time that passed. Oasis has tons of lvl 64+ and lvl 72+ players, so they can pay much more then players on Eldorado server where just bots and people that play over 6 hours per day with gt have lvl 64+ or 72+.

I'm sure that an average lvl 72 player on Oasis has 200 million or more in his storage or on another storage or stalling account... So it's no surprise for me that the prices are so much higher.

Yes but its greed to. And the fact that people sell things at high prices becuase high lvls can afford makes the system even more wrong. Obvious to see isnt it?

Its unfair to compare eldorado and oasis, maybe if you were comparing two older servers that came out at the same time, it would be more fair.

Last time I check a stall (yesterday) I saw them ranging from $185-$250k I have recently seen shield elix as cheap as $50K.....but that is probably common across all servers.

It's not so much greed but rather inflation due to gold buying and also taking into account the age of a server.

Yea, since the cap raise and the demand for Protector and Weapon elixirs, the price shot up considerably. But now, its starting to taper off and get closer to 'normal' I can usually find weapon elixirs for 180-210k, and prot elixirs for 60-70k. I agree about the 16 sos bows, they range from 8-12 mil depending on blues and +'s.

it is simply the supply and demand factor
also oasis is an older server so we have tons more gold at the higher lvls so everyone CAN pay more for stuff
its not greed its the inflation mostly due to ccfers but now that thats gone gold buyers are the main cause
greed? its not greed its just how the oasis economy is...
thats why i moved to pacific no more people with 10+ accounts of 999bill gold

ahhh I made a really bad choice to switch to Xian from Athens, prices are double for everything. Im seeing lvl 24 SoS glavies go for 15 mil, on athens I got my lvl 42 +3 sos Spear for that much. I'm broke most of the time and i still have lvl 10 equipment at lvl 28 because I cant even do trade runs without getting 1* popped so i can make money.

All I can do i guess is sell all my stuff real low and try to get people to bring down prices. Yesterday i sold Weapon elixers for 197k, shield elixers for 45k, acc elixers for 35k and proctector elixers for 80k.

i understand you, i m broke too, and most of legits players are. what to do when a sosun lvl 64 weapon cost AT LEAST 999.999.999 gold or str stones lvl 8...5.5 mil =/
from a certain point of view i m happy to see legit players coming on Xian but from another point i m sad knowing that Xian is the hell. Economy made by bots just totaly ruin xian legits players.
good luck if you are staying on xian :love:

ahhhh = = Might as well stay, im already lvl 28, and I REALLY don't feel like doing it again on another server. Besides, i met some nice people, so i feel pretty happy with it so far with the exception of the economy. ^___^ Thanks for your welcome.

Well ok. Hopefully prices will drop to the point where the lower lvls can afford. Prices shooting up because higher lvls can afford is not very good lol. Ask yourself whats the % of players in say oasis who are under lvl 50. prob around 80% at least. So for this time frame where everything is too expensive just for 20% of the population to go round buying stuff its really not good. Hope prices are falling....

Maybe work in small trade groups with people you trust...only stall buying and selling to them.....yeah sounds like an extreme but I would pm the ones you trust or post in all that you are gonna stall. Then if a group of 10-20 only buy from one another it could grow to 30-50-100 but the goal being to bring prices down.

I see that 99,999,999 shiat on Troy and I am new to this game but even I am like "come on that aint right".

I make a note of every staller that I see offering decent prices and whenever i start looking for something specific I pm them. I also make sure I price all my stuff low.....elements and tabs especially. I sold a guy a level 13 bow with 4 blues(str, int, attack, lucky) and an 11 crit and a +% in every other category for $56k. I wanted a little more because it was great for low level grinding but he offered (actually offered something like $56,873) so he got a great deal and hopefully is "having fun playing" instead of being ripped off or getting frustrated and leaving because he can't get a decent weapon.
