Economy is terrible

[tommydgun]

The economy is so fucked right now... here is the economy... "hey guys I'm selling mith 2h for 20k PSTTTTTT" .... "hey guys I'm buying mith 2h for 8k xdddddddddddd"... no items actually get sold. Nice economy

Its kind of a goofy in between of blue and classic. People sort of don't know how to value their items so it goes nuts. They know how easy it will for certain items to generate in the future will be, but also how rare they are now, etc

[Albanwr]

well, considering the server is still very new, just play the game with the shit you have. It's classic...

The lowballing on miths is ridiculous. You don't need to buy a freakin haste item. The only one that exists right now (essentially) is FBSS-- which people are selling for 20-25k. Not only that but the haste on the mith is almost 50% better than the haste you get on the FBSS. Just ridiculous. Mith should be going for a lot. It's easily the best and most realistic DPS weapon for the next 8 months if you can equip it.

Considering there aren't any dps classes that can equip it that argument isn't too strong.

The agro it generates is pretty poor.

Eh? a mith will outdamage anything but a rogue for melee classes. The aggro is good and consistent, unlike the other options which essentially "pray your poc with garbage dex or be useless".


You obviously know nothing about vanilla EQ.

Its simply, there are not enough cash to buy all uber items, some one have the plat for sure, but the mass community dont have 20kp to buy all items are drop every day and people expect sale for 20k or more, specialy the ones what are becoming trash in khunark, just main tank of raid guilds need being full geared, and this are just for weapons, why armor are from planar equipment.

This mean uber expensive items are for twink alters, and so much twink people is waiting iksars.

Those items aren't being purchased by people who play the game. They're being speculated on and hoarded by a cartel of tunnel fatcats. They're the P99 equivalent of gold bricks.

the prices are kinda stupid tbh, why do people want 20k plat this early in the game? most players are making maybe 100 plat a day selling FS

like people have said the high end items are just being traded between the poopsockers and are not realistic to obtain for most people, whill the medium and low end items like impskin gloves/gator legs are going for very reasonable prices

so no, the economy is fine, its just those very few highly sought after items are being circulated mostly between the people that play EQ1 and only EQ1

If you made 100pp a day from selling FS since launch... you’d be approaching 10k! Rich
