So, just as it is IRL, inflation has made itself felt in BDO.  Prices are practically double what they were a year ago for a lot of weapons and accessories, but the loot for Bosses has remained unchanged.  I'm not seeking for higher drop rates of boxes or rare accessories, although I wouldn't complain if that was adjusted towards more often, but getting a few gold bars and a couple hundred K silver just doesn't seem worth the effort to kill a world boss.  So, how about doubling the gold bars dropped, or increasing the silver to a couple million?

Or get creative and give us a better reason to fight world bosses?  After a couple years of fighting them a few times a day.... I'm getting weary of it.  Extra incentive would be nice.

Depending on special events, some prices are raising or lowering. Do you even know what "inflation" means, lol?

Your "inflation": Standard PEN gear was around 20-25B, now it's at 8-13B.

Some prices of gathering drops "doubled" because they raised the max. price. Artificial chains got broken.

Trash loot of a ton of mobs has more than doubled. There are a lot of ways to make silver now, much easier than when I started 3 years ago. Ofc. the world boss loot has already been increased. They can now drop additionally items. No "improvement" required. If your're unhappy with that, don't "waste" your time there!

That's awesome.

And thanks to those that enlightened me concerning my concern: I guess I just focused on things that used to be significantly cheaper, and are no longer, which seemed to follow upon certain areas enjoying increased trashloot value.  It seemed that the devs did us a "favor" by increasing silver accessability and then jacked market prices.  I'm certain that balance is still necessary at other places, but that is more in the realm of ideals, rather than reality.

And this is the truth: You want something in this game?  WORK for it.  That probably means you have to mindlessly grind for several dozen hours.  But there are ways to make mindless grinding productive: listen to an audio book, or phone a friend, or something.  Grinding doesn't HAVE to be a waste of time.  The world is awesome depending on how you look at it.

Peace!
