RMT is ruining the economy
People are overpricing items and want 40ex or a div for trash items. You cannot trade without RMT anymore. It makes collecting currency in the endgame unfulfilling.

Will GGG do anything about this? As it stands now, the game is great, but the economy in it is going to hell.

RMT has nothing to do with it outside of the fact that it "facilitate" the acquisition of the resources in trading, meaning balancing the Demands toward the Offers.

For instance, if you're complaining that X cost Y Ex or Z Div, would you be willing to sell better gear for lesser or will you try to ride the market like all the others and makes as many Ex or Div as possible from each trade?

Are you willing to invest your time and effort in acquiring good loot and selling them for cheaper than the market? No? Then you're part of the problem you're complaining about.

Before asking other to sell at cheaper prices, start selling cheap yourself.

A high lvl gear will always not be cheap because its rare and endgame, early and midgame gear should be cheap as hell, its like buyibg a diamond vs coca cola on the market, now because of bots you have to pay 100 cocas to get 1.enjoy

Has nothing to do with bots ... but sure ... you do you man :D

honestly, all of this bickering about the economy makes me not want to play this game. I want to have fun. This isn't it.

Then play SSF ... problem solved.

I doubt that many do it. Since MF is so strong its rather easy to farm 100ex+
Why would you waste money if you can just farm it yourself rather easily.

I would love to do that, but players have complained doing ssf saying that its harder in the end game to craft what you want. It's probably why everyone goes the economy direction, otherwise they wouldn't. This solves nothing.

Thats what I originally commented was that I'm just not interested in this game after reading all of the forums about the economy, but then someone replied with trying something else, so I just replied back. I'm not sure what you are even trying to say at this point?

Why are you taking your opinion about the economy from the forums instead of from playing?

My mind cannot comprehend people paying to win in an unfinished EA game. People surely aren't this stupid right? Right?

I'm not spending money after seeing all of the problems with the games economy after reading the forums. It's not like everyone is wrong, and are making it up. Their are numerous people complaining about it. I'd rather not become one of them as well, and run before it's too late.

Is RMT buy Currency and Items with real money?

I'm sure there's tons of people who flash their debit card around and Cash app or whatever for tons of currency and Items.

And everyone else who plays normally is just dumb and poor.

It's very bad. I don't think GGG will get on it.

Give us an Auction House and disable Trading from other players will fix it.

>It's not like everyone is wrong

See, I wouldn't make that assumption after reading all of the complaints about getting killed by Geonor and "not getting good loot" (== not getting an upgrade from every rare mob).

Divines cost about as much as they drop compared to exalts, and the "everything is listed for 1 div" problem comes from the trade site bug where it thinks div is 7 ex instead of 71. Search by prices set to exalts and be happy.

We all have different viewpoints, and its a good thing, and keeps the world turning. No one should want to think exactly the same ever.

Streamers, for example. Then they can show off their super OP builds that consist entirely of OP gear. Unless they play SSF, no one knows if the gear was bought or earned. Not to mention the fact that all the streamers with OP gear end up (unintentionally) pushing RMT.
