Currency will become worthless over time

new leagues will start when game goes live I wager

Of course default is going to always become easier and easier. That's why you don't play default. Really not dying is really not that hard, you don't build yourself as a glass cannon and go head long into every pack you see.

It takes more thought and skill than default. If you want to just grind endlessly with no risk fire up progressquest and have at it. Hardcore isn't better, it just takes more skill and planning. Default is there to be easy and accessible so the economy is going to be crap overall. If you don't want to "farm" then you are playing the wrong game, ARPG's are all about farming.

The delusions that the hardcore economy is "better" because of a minor insubstantial item sink are highly amusing.

It moves slower because of reduced player count and is not targeted much by bots and RMT for the same reason, but eventually without fixes it will end up in exactly the same place the default league's economy is going.

top tier items leave the hc economy, players remake characters more often, no matter how you see the economy is more stable

The fact that you can transfer your 6L armor to another character is the real problem here.

Sometime everyone will own a 6L even its not char spesific because its more beneficial to have a 6L.

Everyone has noticed the drastic decrease in value for 6L and 5L items. Saw a guy selling 5L items for 2gcp which is so ridic.

making the items bound to character once equiped is the only way to save the game.

Two things....First. I don't think you'll see people transferring rrrrbg,rrrbbg, rrrbgg evasion armors to their other characters unless they can use those colors. I don't think you'll see anyone rerolling those colors either. If so they just spent a substantial amount of currency to switch the colors.


Secondly. I'm pretty certain that fewer and fewer people will be playing the permanent Default and Hardcore leagues as the game matures. They already have a 1 month race coming up in a couple weeks with a 1 week before that.


Eventually, you'll see more longer duration leagues that people will play in. Those leagues get dumped into the permanent leagues. So there's little reason to play outside of those temporary leagues if things like the fresh economy appeal to you.

This.

The "problem" you are describing sounds like an improvement to me.

Can't wait.

I consider 'bound' gear to be one of the worst things ever created for video games in the history of video games.

I agree.

Main thing that I didn't see mentioned once the game leaves OB new stat tiers and item tiers become available I doubt a LVl 50 six link is going to cut it in a LVL 80 Zone or a ilvl 77 6 link in a 90 Zone 4 acts and were only half way thru A3 still have an act and a half left and Maps Beyond that. sooo this Probably won't remain an "issue" additionally Just because you have a 6l doesn't mean you want to cannibalize your chars or that the stats on your 6link are usable on all your different char builds as Nerfs and Buffs continue to happen and new build making gear comes out as well as additions and changes to the Passive tree Different stats become wanted and used Currency is also always useful for maps which is Endgame.. In Short it will never become Worthless
