ARR Gil Cap Reduction

[Pyretta_Blaze]

But the point is no one is getting hurt here... Gil and npc prices will both be going down. The only thing that might be bad is if in 2.0 sellers are dumb and don't reduce their prices. This should be a short term problem since people who understand what is going on will reduce their prices to a reasonable level and the overpriced stuff just won't sell.

it won't be the sellers that's the problem if they don't lower the prices. if the buyers are still buying at pre-change prices then sellers are going to keep selling it there. the only real time the sellers would be dumb is if people STOPPED buying for anything above 10% the price it was before, but we all know that you will never convince some people from doing it.

after the change the value of things will change. some items will become more important than before since people won't have as much disposable income to waste. some will become less important for the same reason though too so it will average out there. the more important will not decrease as much as the less important ones will as far as selling price.
