But now you have to split the plat 5 ways instead of four, so increase price by 50%.
Increase would be 25% to make sure everyone gets the same amount as before =X

Anyway, even before the 3 person farm there was a time when it could be 2 person farmed.

The price for fungi really isn't bad considering it takes a group of people to farm it, its drop rate, and the effectiveness of the item.
LOL, what's your point? I haven't been in seb in awhile.

Anyhow, that is not the way economics works! People are still willing to sit in a full group to do the camp just like how they were with 3-4 before. The rewards go down but they're still willing to camp them. Same item. Same supply. Same demand.

People were able to cheat up the price by using the wiki. That's all that happened.

What?? That is exactly how economics work. When the cost of producing something goes up the cost of that item also goes up. Once again you haven't been to seb in a while and you aren't interviewing people. So you can't just assume everyone is willing to do whatever. Markets are sometimes subject to manipulation but this is a case where you just don't like the expected outcome. I didn't even mention the fact that I think Seb has been less camped because people are spending a lot of energy on a raid scene which now takes up significantly more time.

Adventurer's fee at king is 500pp/hour.

5-6 man group is required.

Fungi is approx 1 drop per 24 hours.

500x5x24=60k. That's the cost of production of a fungi by a 5 man group. Do I wish it were 45k like in the days of the 4 man group? Of course! But these adventurers have families to feed, jum habits to sate and Sweetcookies to buy.

A rise in costs to adventurefarmcorp means a rise in price for ECratLtd.

Simple... offer lowball prices on everything resell for wiki prices. This leads to virtually unlimited plat. There are enough people that will accept less than wiki prices to ignore those that won't.

ah, but see now: if time has value, that would not good for number. number must always improve. it is the way of number. all obstacles to number must be removed, all enemies of number must be destroyed.
