I will be fucked 3 times with those gloves.

1) I bought my pair for 140 ex when now market value is around 85 ex

2) it was a bad roll, and after 6 divines, it's still a bad one

3) Pretty sure that if this is nerfed, that would be modifying the mod "instant leech", so there won't be any legacy.



Damn


those gloves are OP, but to get them, you already have to be OP, so modify them could not happen, since in new leagues, especially HC, it's hard to achieve quickly.

It is a class pyramid. The poor and lesser geared people farm the midnights, the middle class buy the midnights and farm the hopes, the upper class farm uber.

It is profitable for everyone. It is a good system for everyone. This system is a product of the free market and is proof that GGG has a firm grip on how to make a dynamic virtual economy.


No, no just no. Freedom is an illusion. You're at a huge disadvantage if you do not participate in the pyramid scheme. Also pretty much every economist agrees that free markets are horribad.


This is a fake virtual economy, not a real economy. A free market is the only way to implement a virtual economy. How exactly do you think GGG could possibly regulate it? Add some sort of minimum wage? Mute players offering bad currency ratios? Force fat cats like axn to give away half his mirror worthy gear to a different crafter to break up monopolies?

You see how anything other than a free market in a virtual economy is stupid, don't you?

There is a big difference between a free market and a market rigged in the favour of the top 2%.
In this respect GGG have managed to mirror rl perfectly to the detriment of 98% of the player base.

The problem they have which differs to rl is that the 98% can just leave the game and then the 2% are screwed.
what aa qq threat. Yes the gloves are nice. Yes you need to have an OP setup to get them or farm currency. WHy does everyone care if the same 1% stocks up on them. Havent u notice that every 3-4months a new OP uniq item drops.

I'm not QQing, infact if there was a spot above the guys getting gloves, that would be me for cashing out thousands of exalts when only a few people could do uber.

Show exactly how it is "rigged" I know you can't, because it isn't.

If I need to explain it to you then you wont understand anyway.
I hate to break it to you plodd, but you are the one who doesn't understand what a free market is. It was nice confirming you had no idea what you were talking about though :)

They're going to change the way the property works like they did for Voll's protector. Meaning no legacy and we're going to drink your tears.
