question about player whealth
Realistically they would need to increase the drop rate on items.
Increasing the number of pure exalted orbs drops would just increase the cost of items across the board. Simple supply and demand. Demand would be the same, if not much higher, on top tier items if everyone was suddenly wealthier. However, if you increased the drop rates on the rarest uniques, if you made T1 rolls more common, those items would start to increase the supply compared to the demand ratio, thereby reducing the asking price on the items. |

I don't know much about standard league, but if you are unable to make a shitload of exalts in torment league you are simply not playing efficiently (or it is simply not your goal).
seriously... 440 alterations = 1 ex. There are so many ways to make currency in an efficient way, but judging from these forums half of the players are completely clueless on the basics of this game. Its impressive really -.- |

" ... ex prices are that high in torment? It's like 320, tops, in Standard (that's literally the highest _asking_ price. If you're the one selling, I feel like people manage to hit 280 or lower?) Last edited by codetaku on Mar 2, 2015, 5:36:31 PM

" an average gamer finds 1-2 exalts in torment, it's not possible for everyone to get 10+ exalts by trading. same goes to eternals or divines. i found zero eternals and 4 divines playing two chars to 85. age and treachery will triumph over youth and skill!

" It doesn't matter how much raw currency you find, or how many awesome uniques you find. Just by farming alts and trading up through elreon/vorici, you can make an exalt every 2 days, easily. It doesn't matter how shit your luck is, "10+ exalts" is just plain not hard to do across the first half of a single league if you put time into it. For an alpha member, I'm really surprised you don't understand that much. Also, can you fix the spelling of wealth in, like, everywhere you write it? It's making me increasingly want to stab babies.

" What you seem to be ignoring, is that if casual is able to get 10-20 exalts, a hardcore player will get 200+. It doesn't change anything for casual player. You still won't be able to get top-end items, because now they will cost 1000+ exalts. You can't "distribute equally" without making artificial and punishing to players who spend a lot more time in-game. You spend more time on something = you get more/get better at it. You can'r expect to be casual and to get hardcore results. Because if you do, hardcore doesn't exist anymore. :)

You got an eternal. I have 2000+ hours, and I'm yet to see it dropping.
" Yes, it is not. Keyword here is EVERYONE. Not everyone is able to trade for 10+ exalts. Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance.

" last time i looked neither elreon nor vorici were selling pure exalts. " it's not possible for everyone. that was my original point: and trading leads to a concentration of high end currency in the hands of a few. for every buyer of an exalt there needs to be a guy selling one. and this guy most likely needs to find it ingame before. for every player selling a unique there needs to be a guy buying it. you don't need access to the alpha realm to understand that. " thx for pointing me to it. got that wrong, somehow. edit: please let that thread die, the topic is not popular and i don't have further time to discuss it.
Spoiler
and i have no other solution for the problem other than introducing some form of item degradation.

" You are ignoring the fact, that 99% of people does not need exalts in their stashes. They need gear, gems and other crap. So what will they do? They will sell their exalts for gear and gems (also chisels, chromes, fusings, jewellers) farmed by people who have more time. This is how people make their exalts. Here is some proof of that:

Yes, I'm what most can call a casual player. I made all this in like ~2 months There is no solution needed. Because there is no problem with it. You just don't like the way it is. Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance.
