It was 42ish gold before the turks and italians merged with the rest of us.Price rose with 10g after the merge was complete and the server came online.Literally over night.
I call shenanigans on this currency crapfest.

P.S. i seriouslydoubt they are investigating anything.The more expensive the coins are the more people are inclined to spend real money instead of grinding themselves to dust farming shekels, pardon, gold.
I.E. Fucked coin to gold ratio = profit (but not for us, never for us)

I don't see you complaining about GB/battleground gold tokens being more than twice as rewarding, or the fact that they added amalgam to battlegrounds and gold to AoD, no I don't see you complaining bout that.

Instead of glyphs that sell for 20g, now farming drops greens and even blues that sell for 150+g.

Gold gain is more than double, rise in the ratio is to be expected as a result of this.

We're used to high exchange rates from the previous server...
It takes your mind on a gold deposition does not have, he played like crystal belly up dry for a while now.
These are good days are... it'll rise more and more....
Biz yüksek kurlara alışkınız önceki sunucumuzdan...
Öyle bir altın birikimi yapmışlardır ki aklınız almaz , o kristal kuru dansöz gibi oynatırlar artık bir süre.
Bunlar iyi günleriniz.. Daha da artacak...

What exactly do you expect GMs to do?

The inflation rate is doing what it supposed to.

Also, for every post now that the exchange rate is too high, there'll be another 2 demanding gold back if they were to reduce the exchange rate.

The bug had nothing to do with why the exchange rate is so high. If it were, then the exchange rate would not be about the same for the League, who's
Exchange NPC was left where he was.

The increased price comes from the increased availability of gold, nothing more.

They also will never discuss actions taken against accounts in the forums, or with anyone other than the account holder.

The TR bug is only partially to blame - the Umoir quests rewarding 200 gold+ loot have injected *far* more gold into the economy than the exploiters took between them.

Just before the merge, on the Italian server the gold exchange rate was about 27/29g~ (for us was SO high XD)
I don't remember well, but in those days we exhanged a lot of gold to buy the last things in our Boutique, so it raised 1-2g up
I'm quite sure we didn't reached 30g.


But our prices were FAAAR lower than these, talking about buying w/ golds and not with real money.
Most of us buyed everything with golds..from runes, to pat5, to tokens for bag/bank, to mounts, to costumes, to strongboxes, to elixirs/astral replicators/animality potions and blahblahblah. Also events items like the ancient compasses for Prophetic Cards), while we were upgrading our gear, our glyph, the astral ships, the professions and so on.

I admit I'm not totally used to these high (for me, at least) prices yet.
So a 55g rate it's..monstrous, even if there is a 2x+ gain.
Here it's more convenient to shop with real money than golds (beyond the personal choices about how to buy in this game)


BTW if I understand well, Elves says that because of the NA exploit a lot of people have a lot more golds than they would have had intead.
To have..ie. millions of golds is quite different to have 500k.
They didn't fix the exlpoit and now those super-rich can make the rate rise faster than the normal.

IF he's saying something like this <.< maybe I'm wrong

A rough estimate for the value of Umoir is 25000 gold. That's 200 gold per quest, for 100 quests, plus roughly 5000 from selling drops and old gear.

That's per person.

There are a damn sight more players than there were exploiters - let's be extremely cynical and say 50 people exploited their way to 100,000 gold.

It takes 4 players to clear Umoir to contribute more gold to the economy than a single exploiter.

Assuming around 1000 people have cleared Umoir, there is 5 times more money in the economy due to questing than there is due to exploiters.

That's ignoring the increased farming yields and value of gear drops.

We will also see a sizeable dip in price in a few weeks once most existing players have finished Umoir and are subsisting on farmed gold.

Every MMO goes through a phase after every content patch where prices spike for the most desirable goods, then settle after the income stabilises.

You all need to remember that the payments of buying crystals are kind of buggy. So not as many people that are cash shop can even buy the crystals with their credit cards/paypal. People buying crystals with actual money and selling them for gold is what brings the prices of the crystals down.

Also need to remember that the Imp NPC is down except for being able to use the astral servant. Not sure about the other servers but NA servers it was the Imps that were more cash shop then the Ligs.

All I am saying is people need to give it time till the topup works properly.
