By converting Traces to a single Trace at a set price, I've lost billions. Why were these not compensated in inventory at market price? I have a couple hundred thousand that I will need to convert at much less than the market price, which will bottom out since there will be an overabundance of Natures. Not well thought out and really not necessary in the first place.
I tried to warn as many people as I could to sell their traces, fruits and essences to the market before the change.
Many told me to bite it.
I still think PA should wipe out all mats as silver refunds before making changes like that. This way no-one can get burned.
They should just leave the game alone.
Or adjust recipes if the demand is too great, and it's too hard to get materials.....
such awful and stupid ideas from PA with regards to lifeskilling lately. Now gathering is even worse money and there is less market diversity to capitalize on. Everyone is generating and trying to sell the same resources and why would anyone gather truffles and rare gems nodes when you get them for being afk?
Agreed...they're destroying the game in favouring mobile players.
Next... expect every tree to be just logs, crops to be just multipurpose crops, elixirs to be just elixirs.
I personally went out and grinded traces, fruits etc for my own mats...uterly pointless waste of 8 years grind.
Still need changes to imperial delivery (serious buffs to alchemy, separate and buff turn in counts for alchemy/cooking) to ever hope of increasing demand to match supply with simplified fruits/traces, especially after the worker buffs.
