If I remember correctly, someone told me it's over 100 shards to get greatness.
Maybe 110? I can't remember exactly.

The only WM worth using shards on is the one for greatness. Making it so expensive was a big mistake since they took the no brainer of buying shards for each reinc instead of doing the quest and suddenly made it more attractive to do the quest again.

Indeed, Stop increasing prices, allods already lost a HUGE community.
Either decrease certain basic prices or dont touch them at all.
This looks realy bad, dunno what to expect on the long term if they are already increasing prices now.

Since the original bug that caused the economy to crash, and heavy work done to fix that, then you got the devs working to add more content plus a server merge and publisher release. I have to say the Allods team is doing just fine. They're adjusting the values of things. Currency exchange on top of inflation to help pay for development and maintenance for the game its only common sense that prices would rise. Greatness is supposed to mean more than just an extra build. More of a hard earned status. So naturally it will be more difficult to obtain.

Plus, like the other guy said, GT isn't a problem at all. The rubies are much easier to obtain if you got the right gear or folks to help.

I just realized that for respec i need 14k + gold...before patch you could get it for like 5k gold...but everything is just expensive ... ofc for players that wanna farm gold and convert it...for other people it's basically same thing...

@Fraust

All I can say is that I hope so.

I'd say just give it some time. Things still haven't had a good amount of time to get things settled in. I'm sure everything will balance out and become more reasonable for others in the near future.

Fraust the GT ruby is no problem to get.
But it was the first ruby i could buy that showed me these insane prices.
And i dont know about you but i dont have ages to spend on this game, it takes months to get Greatness, or 20 euro wich is not a small price to pay.
Especialy not for those that like to have multiple characters.

Ofc devs have to spend more time, but they also have a bigger community for that now.
Makes no sense to up the prices and risk a decrease of population.
In fact i am prerry sure they calculated the profit they would make already.

Lower or decent prices wil result in a bigger community.
Atleast lower the basics.
Exp scrolls etc, i mean most fun for most people is in the end game anyway.

If u ask me its total nonsense to spend months on a quest wich in most games is pretty much free instantly or at a certain level.
And on top of that dare to ask €20,- euro's for it.

If they are making stuff more expensive as you would not mind them to, then going from €2,00 to €20,- already on a item like this, what would other increases be like?

Of course you need more gold but gold is also much more easy to get. Bear in mind that a goblinball gold token is more than twice as rewaring as it was. I am finding everything to be much more affordable with gold now than it was when I quit in the 4.0x cycle.
