any sort of economy in DDO is just an illusion that theres something of value.

You've defined how money works.

I think what you mean is that Turbine's suffering rampant inflation due to inadequate control of the money supply. And I agree with DropBear; that problem was less than catastrophic.

Which turned out best for me, as I didn't dupe any shards, but I managed to collect quite a few selling absolute shit-reeking garbage during the shard rush. In fact, I can tell that problem is over, because nobody's buying, uh ... my shit.

...

I could've maybe picked a better metaphor.  Undecided

Not everyone was duping shards, so there is still an economy - it was just distorted for awhile.  Many of those have probably washed through the system or the players left the game.


I didnt dupe any, but got thousands just selling better stuff right after new random loot came out- people were buying sta/insight stat items like crazy for tremendous prizes. I still think bringing AS was the last hit to "economy".

I don't think naming names would be a good thing for me to do, but I'd pretty much add anyone who's a know-it-all dick on the list.� Even if they are sometimes intelligent with their opinions, the way they state them in long, "i'm a lawyer at trial"-type posts makes me want to punch them in the face.� They act like whiney babies with god complexes and then freak out if someone so much as breathes criticism in their direction.

I don't want this. I want more Murlynd's Spoons. A whole list.

Items like:
Ring of Air Breathing - Allows the wearer to breathe air. Flavor Text:  What? You can already breathe air? You lucky bastard.

Make my vendor trash amusing, or let them drop as rarely as Murlynd's Spoon does. Add them to the store (especially old PnP items that are useless in a quest, like a Flagon of Endless Water), and Turbine will turn on the money faucet.

DDO benefits immensely from RPG immersive elements like this.

There are other directions to go other than power creep.


Dear Christ in Heaven, THIS.

I still can't believe they haven't converted the Bloodstone to an augment.

It would suddenly become relevant again.
