Doing it gradually is not a solution, nor is beneficial in the light of account retention. Not to mention that it doesn't help in any way as a gil sink as well, because many people just say "to hell with it" and don't partecipate in the gold sink at all.

Basically, there's no reasonable reason not to drop the prices ASAP, and there's every possible reason to do it as soon as possible in coding terms.

economy isn't really paralyzed, most people on legacy servers just said to hell with it and started buying/selling normally
It's a whole lot slower than it was on December the 13th.
