General Discussion - EXALTED ORB Price Shenanigans [Delirium] 127:1 What is even going on? - Forum

" SunL4D2 wrote: Literally what the actual fuck? Exalted Orbs dropped from 70 to 53 Chaos in 2 days. Ever happened in Leagues before? There was nothing like this during Prophecie or Essence. Is this just price manipulation which will end in a few days or Exalted orbs price will continue to drop? Player dropoff is smaller compared to previous Leagues according to Steam charts and nothing special in particular happened during last few days. Do you have any reasonable explanation? If it gets back down to 18 chaos (3 GCP for an exalt, 6 chaos per GCP was once the price!) I'll be happy, and might use them for crafting.

I think it's best summed up with a quote from another player in the other 'Breach economy' thread--- "Wait to see how butt hurts when league ends and from 40C to exa every one enters in standard at 90 C to 1 exa." Going to be funny XD Last edited by neonive on Jan 22, 2017, 4:34:42 AM	Posted by neonive on Jan 22, 2017, 4:33:41 AM Quote this Post

Prior to that, people were strongly incentivized to consolidate currency, simply to conserve space (5000 Chaos orbs is 3.47 standard stash tabs, btw). Eliminate that incentive and provide even more uses for chaos compared to fairly useless exalts and it's clear why the relative value is shifting. Unless they add a compelling reason to use exalts for crafting, I would imagine exalts will continue to drop in value. You make absolutely no sense. Literally nothing you say makes a slightest glimpse of sense. >_< And this is why - all what you mention is fair for each previous League and it doesn't explain in any way shape or form how in the middle of Breach League for no reason just off the blue Exalted price dropped from 70c to 42c.

Going to be funny XD Nobody cares about Standard though. :P Besides, price in STD keeps dropping. Also it's vice versa. It would be awesome to enter Standrd where price of Exalted orb is 90c, because you got tons of cheap exalts in Breach.	Posted by SunL4D2 on Jan 22, 2017, 5:09:03 AM Quote this Post
The problem (if we consider this is a problem) is not with exalts, it's with chaos. 1 chaos = 4.5 fusing, the ratio was clearly not the same last league. So exalted are fine, chaos are more expensive than usual.

Going to be funny XD Most people will just create new chars in the new league. Anyway the ratio will probably change a lot during the last days of the league, some people will want to buy lots of exalts before.	Posted by AsbelFar on Jan 22, 2017, 5:40:00 AM Quote this Post
Should reach about 22:1 at the extreme end, with current options for crafting I could see about 30 to 1, but thats on the extreme end of a 6 month curve. IGN : Reamus	Posted by Andromansis on Jan 22, 2017, 6:16:19 AM Quote this Post
Each time I see people who want to buy 41 Chaos for 1 Exalted from me I am like WTF. >_< Later this day price got a bit higher though, so I get less whispers.	Posted by SunL4D2 on Jan 22, 2017, 10:57:21 AM Quote this Post
Seems like it started to drop slower. 41:1 now	Posted by SunL4D2 on Jan 24, 2017, 2:52:45 AM Quote this Post

YES I support the game, NO I don't agree with many GGG decisions Lab still sucks balls. I miss Zana already.
