Will Kunark effect the Economy of our P1999
 

How bad you think kunark will effect Economy on P1999???
Do you think prices will go under considering all the sweet ass loot???

Its sure gonna suck when you can't sell your bronze armor and your Obsidian shards etc when theres better

lol of course prices of current items will fall drasticly ...

noooooooooooo
 

I was really wanting to be wrong on that tho =/ sigh

Both Kunark and Velious will of course affect the economy but if I remember right inflation wasn't as catastrophic in classic as in the later expansions..

Kunark probably wont be out for another 6 months or so, by then i doubt you will be needing the money from bronze armor and obsidian shards :)

*facepalm*

Spud, I sure hope so - I need to kill Vox and Nagafen before Kunark comes out.

i don't see why people are "sad" about this obvious fact...kunark, when released, will change the market over night.

ssoy stop being the best weapon around...caster gear totally changes...melee gear totally changes...etc.

there will be some oldies from classic that remain in very high demand, but overall these currently overpriced items will become very cheap.

its actually probably easier to make a list of items from classic that are still useful in mid to high kunark.

it isn't a bad thing...newbies seeking plat will just have to go to the "bronze and obsidian shard" equivalents on kunark...which there are actually much more. I recall farming loot to be very easy during kunark. lots of mobs in places people don't rlly go...lots of good loot to get if you just plunk the time into camping.

It won't effect it negatively in my opinion. It will allow newer players or alts to have good gear at lower levels. All in all, I think it will be a positive outcome.

You'll have to factor in inflation. EQ has limitless plat. Mobs don't stop dropping loot or money. The longer the server is up, the more plat there is on the server. Theoretically, the prices of items should go up over time. By the same thing, some items are limitless as well.
