    That's the goal though. unless a mat is SUPPOSED to be much more rare for some reason (e.g. gems, something not required en masse) other than making it a pain to level, the supply and demand should be roughly the same.

    For DoL mats, Flax, Iron, Cobalt, etc. it's close to uniform. For kill mats, bomb ash, Fleece, Diremite Webs, Aldgoat skins and up, the prices are roughly 10-20x what the DoL mats are.

    And SE controls both the supply (by changing monster drop rates) and demand (by adjusting how much of a mat drops).

    By making it so that the drops you need to go from level 35-45 as a LTW are a 15% drop from level 45-50 mobs uniformly, there is a problem.
