Ambush: Why is the Chaos:Ex ratio so crazy right now?

Well I was a bit surprised about it too.

But I guess it is true. People valued chaos higher in the early days in ambush, since it was easy to upgrade gear without using exalts. Now a lot of people are at the point were they have to use exalts to upgrade, because the average item created with chaos is just so much worse than what they have.

I'm a bit more surprised why regrets go up in price so fast after a new league starts^^.

Once poeple can farm level 60 areas effectively and safely, they rack up chaos far faster than exalts due to the recipe.

They need to put in a vendor recipe. 20 chaos = 1 exalt.

shit i remeber on dom people were buying for 38-40c each exa

You will see very soon ratio: 40 (46) Chaos orbs : 1 Exalted orb.
Wait a little. Just wait, not so long as you think.

It is the flippers driving the price of exalted, and a certain mindset will work very hard to drive the price ever upwards.

This happens every league. It's just how the economy works in 4 month leagues.

Everybody knows the prices go up, this thread was about how fast it happened.

Same happened last league at a similiar frequency. It will rise a bit more even.. toward the end of the league(last month) it will drop rapidly.

In the past on Standard, Nemesis, Domination, and even Ambush, you could get ex for 21-24 chaos.

Now, the ratio is up to 28:1 on Ambush.

I don't understand. Even with Arcanist boxes, chaos aren't that much easier to get.

What happened?

RMT Websites and people who are flipping all day with help of their bot (or not sometimes) decide this because it makes more profits for them.

You dont need to understand why, just keep to get rid off of all you farm by these people with keeping a smile on your face for GGG.

And all the bullshit that people need more that kind of orb atm in the game can still believe in it if they want to stay in the dark.

Economy in this game is controlled by third party people who make a huge profit on it.
