With 84 blackstone (10 mill ish) being a 30 stack, this renders the Pri devour (+28 @ 40-45 mill) outdated
Updat number ty :)

I can’t believe it was your intention to make some devouring processes redundant, considering you gave them a boost not so long ago to make them relevant. 

Although the new system will make some players happy, it would seem you have overlooked its impact on higher enchantments. This could lead to less pri to tets on the market (Green and blue grade) as there is no longer a save margin of profit.

Understandable this could have been overlooked, it’s a complicated chain that manly enchanters understand, and maybe not your in the mind of developers, ginders and GM,cms. On the surface, what you have introduced looks good, and it can be, but you must adjust other areas too.

I’m told no one gets listened to on the forum, I hope that’s not the case J

ADDITION;
Although I’m waiting to see how this plays out, enchanting can have a big impact on the income of newer players, indirectly.
Session is in swing so base item greens have dropped (this is normal), they could drop even more if green level enchanting become redundant.

Rosar talismans for example; Outside of seasons, they can be a useful income for newer players. They stand at 55k on EU at the moment, that is incurably low. Back when they were few in number, a player could go and grind and sell these items for 200k+ each (dose not take long for them to hit that, as enchanters place pre orders, trying to get ahead of each other). We may not achieve such number again if the balance has been upset.
So, although the new system looks good, it needs watching as it’s knock on effects wont just effect enchanters but new and casual grinders.

ADDITION 2 (05/08 uk);

To be clear here, I’m not against the new system, I understand it related to reblath enchanting, That is the trendy and most common system (or at least the most public)... Also why most people do not make an income from enchanting unless they are lucky... you can’t sell on your reblaths.

Understand; you may not be aware of other method people use, becuse streamer do not use them (as far as I have seen), but these method are profitable and supply mid range enhancements to the market, reblths do not.

This has been over looked; i am poining this out and asking for a small tweak to balance out the change to lesser known. This is feedback from a person that uses this method, and although you may not know it, this method has a wider scope on the economy.

It’s not the end of the world if there isn’t an adjustment, i don’t sell my pris to the marketplace myself, but some enhancers using this method do.

Understand what i am saying; I’m not against the new system, that is a QOL improvement for a lot for players (and on the surface has no real impact, if all enhancers where reblath enhancers…They are not), It’s a good system, i will use it too. So don’t feel attacked because i mention buffing devours rates... this is not a replacement for the system, but a way to make pri less redundant vs 84 blackstones.

hope that helps people understand better :) because I feel the post already have had the wrong reaction to my proposal.

I’m not a Reblath enhancer, I am talking from this position, you may have no idea of my position and think enhancing is all about reblath.. It is not.

IMO, devour should also be able to boost an existing stack, up to 70. 

you say that, but I’m coming from a place of experience. Sure that’s one of the uses, but they are used for more than that. I don’t grind, i Pvp, so enchanting was my only income. Depending on the supply of rosars, i made 500 to 1 bill a day. People where buying tri roars for more than equipping, given how many where selling.

When demand was high, rosars headed up to 280k... would have gone even higher but i took a brake from enchanting for a few weeks.

I’m probably one of the bigest consumers of rosars in EU (I don’t use reblath, not all people do), buying out 1000s when listed (and then pre ordering too), therefore creating the demand. This has been profitable for me, and watching the pricing go up meant people were willing to grind in areas where they dropped (low level people).

so your understanding is an assumption, and mine come for actively creating my income.

-1 (what a spiteful thing to do, have it back)
So you would have it changed to make enchanting a lot easier?
Some are good at Pvp, some are good at life skilling, and some are good at enchanting and building stacks. If 70 stacks concern you, you’re not a proficient enchanter, not everyone can be (have so many sometimes, I will drop one on a tri rosar, just for a quick sale).

But when we start adding shortcuts to each area of the game because some are not good at some areas, you cheapen aspects of the game and hollow it out.

Sadly some cannot be happy with the fact they are not good at all aspects of the game, and the ones they struggle with, they want changed - to hay with how it effects others.

if changes stay as they are, oh well, i will find another way.

Once you make something much easier, all can do it, and profit is lost. I know, the idea that some can make profit in an area you can’t hurts, but that’s gaming.. Find your strengths.

I hope PA haven’t made a mistake, or the changes impacts are small because, although this new system looks good to some, if it impact the higher level enchanters, Why would they produce enchantments for sale? therefore impacting the cost of other items, which grinders had spend all day saving up for, (and enchanters then have to move to grinding for some sort of income, reducing current grinders access –‘ economic eco system’)... yeah, people see something as an improvement but don’t she the costs down the line.

I can’t know if there will be an impact, or if it all works outs.. But you ,, you are looking for instant gratification

I noticed that the idea of buying stacks (pretty much what this is) was promoted by a few streamers. These streamers are not enchanting to sell items for the player base, they’re needs rely solely to their game play. They wanted cheaper stacks that the MP offered, a selfish want with no investigation into why these stacks cost what they did.

This stack buying will not help poor enchanters hit more higher end enchantments (that’s just a dream) but will impact the brake even / profit made from selling intermediate enchantments, enchanters count as leftover’s.

So, although this looks good to the short sighted, it’s could impact the availability of higher end items, increasing there price and reducing access to progression for the average person… but at least them streamers will be doing okay :)
