Some suggestions for the games economy

[Sneakaboo]

Well you could make the items from the npc vendors a bit more expensive.
Currently if I would sell the item for the vendors price I would make a loss because of the AH cut.
This leaves some room for people that gather to sell it on the AH.


I like the EQ concept in the current environment.
I can for one post 40 items so I can't put a lot of stacks.
That or go for the WOW approach, let people post as much as they want.


The thing is finding moneysinks to keep people from getting too rich is easy.
How ever in ARR it is the opposite, people lose more than they make.\
RMT know it as well, that's why they spam.

Most MMO's use this concept as 'gold sink'.

- Items on a long duration that give you buff think of flasks.
- Repairs
-Food buffs
- Potions
- vanity items (some very expensive ones)
- WOW for one has expansions that functioned as a reset of the economy.
- Transmorg (being able to use skin of gear you obtained , making this very expensive helps)

Best concept I've seen has been WOWs black market.
NPC spawns every day and has some items, most vanity some loot.
You can bid on them.
In that game there are tons of vanity items and people tend to collect them so it works as a good money sink.


Personally I find rolling alts the worst solution out there.
