Marketplace to sell Iron Tools and below

DamienMarlock 8 лет назад • обновлен Lorinthar 8 лет назад • 6

Would it be possible for the marketplaces in their respective cities to sell Iron Tools? Even if it costs 200 Obols per tool most of us would be okay with that.


Don't get me wrong I love how we actually have to work at accomplishing even the most basic of things rather than 3 years from now people logging in for the first time and being given all their hearts desires worth of items, foods, equipment. It's a great time for all of us and I really enjoy putting in the work and seeing the game flourish from the start.

I think the marketplace shouldnt sell iron tools, i think they should be profided through players. Else demand for ore, wood and hides will lower, breaking the already weak player-sold market.

There is a multitude of problems with providing tools through players:

  1. Supply is variable and at times non-existent, especially for higher level tools. It's entirely possible for players to get well ahead of the tools anyone can make.
  2. Demand is variable and at times non-existent, which is not ideal for sellers. In general, after an initial spike in demand due to equipping everyone, there will be a notable drop in demand for all but the highest and lowest tiers of tools. This is because at the highest tiers the top players will be gaining levels and needing new tools, and at the lowest tiers there will be new players coming in or people breaking tools, but in the middle tiers players can get hand-me-downs. Besides this trend, we can also expect random fluctuations on a short-term scale.
  3. Prices are subject to fluctuation as a result of variances in both demand and supply. This can be solved by only allowing the player market to use a fixed price, but it would be a lot easier to just let the NPC marketplace buy/sell things at that price.

There are still other items in game that would require said materials you mentioned correct? But you do have a fair point as well.

If anything I wish the marketplace would buy excess materials and equipment made by players. Some items I just drop after making them because there is no market for them

In this particular game its unnecessary since you do not NEED the higher end tool to do the job though. It gives a bonus timer reduction, which is nice though. Having them available through NPC would possibly create a obol sink, but would have to be much higher then 200 if logs are still able to be sold for 2

It is necessary, though. You need the higher tools if you want to remain competitive, since they offer a timer reduction. I would assume the game is balanced with this in mind.
