In the next auction, throw in an item that's just a straight conversion of silver to game-wide RPA. It sells for 50k, giftbox gets a black orb. It sells for 2b, everybody gets a multi-use violet orb. Just straight PBS telethon.

in terms of completely different, fatal afflares seems to have done a pretty good job for itself of demonstrating what people will line up to pay for even when the price point doubles, the problem is that it's a customization service

The Gown Launcher has 15 customizable options to truly personalize the gown that you launch straight into that behemoth's face. But because of how special they are, each customization counts as 5 services, and must come from a sadie scroll submitted with a 200 million silver tip

loud echo
#

things like the gowns, auction quality of future items (thaum tome, stills, nail press), wandoliers, the arkati amulets, the scarabs, familiar stuff, properties, herb tomes

These are all real winners. It's unfortunate, but weapons/armor just don't really belong in auctions anymore due to basically OST stuff at the pay events.

I think some services are still good in here as whale targets too, with MK/SK or such.

north palm
#

well, no- I think that covers the very ultra top end for some instances, but 250k is not a reasonable price.
Look more at how people give advice to others when they want to make purchases. A ton of effort is spent steering people away from low to mid tier things because of how the system works. I think that hurts revenue and the in game economy because it creates stagnation for all but the top items and scripts. It also means that when something new comes out, if its power level is not on par as perceived by the players, it doesn't get the same consideration not because of direct cost, but secondary costs such as player services, script/subscript add ons, etc
Which is a shame.

you charge the gown launcher by feeding it gowns, the number of charges is based on the script attached. If you attempt to feed it an unscripted gown, it just zeros your bank account in protest.

# gaunt ice I disagree, I was just out bid on the weapons and armor.

This is really not me trying to harp on you, but... not a single weapon or armor went for anything close to what past weapons and armors have gone for. If you were unable to afford any of those (some of the best deals I've ever seen) then I don't think you were the target audience for the auction.

minor comet
#

Base it off the total auction haul instead, and just make the final item a certificate saying "I spent x amount and all I got was this lousy certificate," so the Most Generous Person could round up the total?

gaunt ice
# loud echo This is really not me trying to harp on you, but... not a single weapon or armor...

Which basically was one of my points in the long as$ed post I did earlier. When am I the target audience? I am not for Wyromania, I am not for the silver auction. So I guess it's just the secondary market that gets the majority of the 8k (actually that's probably a bit higher but I've gotten better about keeping logs of my hobby expenditures in the last two years) I've spent on Gemstone since returning.

I have started sending out emails, yes. I have not had a chance to get to everyone yet. It requires me doing a log dive.

you and I (and I would argue a lot of other people) are the target audience of the stores, with OTS items

loud echo
# gaunt ice Which basically was one of my points in the long as$ed post I did earlier. When ...

you are probably part of the majority then, which is what all the shops and services, events and such are done and targeted toward.

I cannot show up to an art auction with $500 and expect to come away with unique art pieces of known artists or such, I'm just not the target audience for that. However I may be able to find something I like with some work and looking around online, or perhaps obtaining prints of nice pieces.

Auctions by definition are not really meant for everyone, they can't be, they always favor who can spend the most, to expect them to be otherwise is completely counter intuitive.

I guess I'm not explaining myself well. Ah well. My long post was meant as feedback for Wyrom anyhow.

If you really are at that spending point, I must admit a but of surprise. $1k simu coin package gets you ~400k bloodscrip, which positions anyone pretty well at mania. Not for every item, of course - but it was enough for some MKs, which I consider to be pretty exclusive to the elite

I can only imagine! I only drew the example because I expect that I’m in a similar spending category and while I certainly don’t feel like everything is within reach at manias, I’ve been pleasantly surprised at what felt achievable. Flare affinity, for example, is one thing I didn’t think I’d have been able to get. Only trying to illuminate that the target audience for these events isn’t quite as narrow as they sometimes feel

As someone who's even further down than you on the food chain, I have to say that these are booming times for the secondary market! Particularly if you are willing to ask people to look in there lockers (market so devalued that a lot of people don't bother selling).

The only caveats being that 330 kinda broke everything. But if you can tolerate unsanctified I can't imagine what fantastic treasures you can get for 8k

#

Just to circle back. After these auctions, we definitely want to keep things moving. The game does a decent job at taking out silver, but we still need to plug the holes where we can. Like Reim had a pretty big hole there. When we introduce things like charms, that have an aim to drain quite a bit, it should take time to work through. It shouldn't be something you max out on day 1. So concerns of not enough silver to do things like that for the wealth gap is kind of intended. Those are intended to have long lifespans.

Circling back to the conversation about getting the secondary market to function again. Obviously the most helpful thing would be an influx of new players 🙂

But my pet theory lately has been that 330 (which I love and find essential) kind of broke the resale market for anyone who isn't willing to spend big on sanct potions. The gear score on everything is so high, I see a mind blowing weapon with a 800 score and no potential for an s6 and I just shrug and walk away. A t5 used to be a selling point and is just something I can strip for 250 gear score room. All of which means that person doesn't replace their weapon cause they can't sell it to me etc...

But I wonder if there is any evidence to back this up or it's just my own idiosyncrasy. If it's true beyond me, then adjustments to that market (supercharged with my other pet idea... hooking the mail system, and peoples lockers into a out of game spreadsheet could democratizes selling and shake loose some lockered items) could free up a bunch of the mid-range market?

85% depreciation is a hard pill for anyone to stomach

drowsy warren
#

is that not exaggerated a bit? I am planning to build a mid-range sigil staff for about 200k BS and I'd buy it pre-built from someone for like 150k BS right now - a lot of that value is in the sancts/ensorcells/enchants and those have long been sunk costs that you usually don't get back

I'm wondering if these comments are just focused on the super high-end market?

Ufian's comment literally said "high end weapon" and yours says "mid-range." 😛

drowsy warren
#

meh what I call midrange/high-range is totally subjective...and I wasn't referring just to his comment but Rinualdo and others have been talking about that for awhile now

I'd imagine a 200k BS runestaff is high-end to 90%+ of the playerbase, right?

It depends on the item. A runestaff has a larger user base.

I think runestaffs (sigil staffs in particular) have the biggest market and least drop off.

My real question though is... if you've sunk 200kBS into a runestaff, and it has no s6, it's basically not going on any of my mains and keeps it from being anything except a bargain for an alt (unless it's so good i'm willing to buy a sanct potion). So that wipes out most of the mid-high end market from pre 330 launch. And I wonder if this is just me or a key factor in the overall deprecation.

But Tsalin is correct: I'm pricing aggressively looking to move it. Not sure what that says except about how big my eyes are for the coming auction and something something mirror. But if anyone wants to negotiate on that, hit me up.

north palm
#

Remember when we were told that silver prices would go up and up as we got closer to auction, and the auction would somehow make a huge impact in the overall economy? And that literally didn't happen?
Pepperidge Farm remembers.

minor comet
#

Counterpoint: the pricing on Yavs' steep armor discount is literally that. Prices dropping on high-end gear doesn't reflect the value of the gear. That's the value of the silvers being up.

sage tundra
# royal cedar A long long time ago it was appreciation… that always made more sense to me, giv...

ultimately in the DR universe it's hard to see how an item could hold value above the price of the cost of the components, right, you can't make a mana sigil staff that's better than the one I can make except by customizing it in ways that I wouldn't want, which would not improve the value to me. in fact, I think player services go some way towards increasing the split between perceived value on the part of the owner and perceived value on the part of the buyer.

drowsy warren
#

It also remembers the 2020 auction when prices spiked up to $6/per. Obviously some factors happened here that were different than the 2020 auction.

Also, Rinualdo, wouldn't your idea put a huge dent in the player services market if you could just transfer services to your new item? I'm not sure breaking one thing to fix another is a good idea? Curious what you think about that concern.

There's a lot of oddity in the GS economy with discrepancies between how I'd expect something to work and how it actually works. 😄

I was selling a perfect death metal spike star with GUB, fusion, and all the player services (except maybe S6 but it was well within reach). There was literally nothing about it that could have been built better. You couldn’t build it without years and years of WPS, a greater transmute, winning a fusion spin, etc. It wouldn’t sell for months, even at a fraction of its value.

There's definitely a point beyond which nobody who can afford a top tier item has any use for it and everything breaks down. It's even weirder with runestaves cause so many professions use them and there's so little competition for a surita sigil.

I think 304 is very, very underrated relative to S6. Particularly if you have reliable access to it, as you do

You definitely need the TD if you want to hunt some of the Hinterwilds areas.

nova haven
#

The discord tends to be where a lot of ultra high-mid high end players hang out, the majority of the game is lucky to scrape together enough silvers to -get- a s6.

I bought a fairly difficult warsword (681 difficulty) at the auction because I like options, and have no desire to do any more player services to it than some damage weighting, and -maybe- a s5 (because s6 disables bleesability)

The Grand Auction of 5123 (Part 1)

#

I'll be closing this thread soon (couple days). I'll start a thread in #game-chatter and create a read-only forum post for part 2.

I'll toss an announcement out when it's finalized. I did roll in some demeanor checks into the pie box. But I have a handful of other updates and bug fixes that I'm getting too tired to do.

Her issue was that it was still an auction item which is why she needed an assist

sharp latch
#

Ah, I shall cancel the assist then but I can't get the table of contents to work when in the realm and the font changes when I interact with the tome.

#

Type INFO to fix the font changes, and then try again?

#

I'll have to run to Zul Logoth again, give me a sec

#

Should work anywhere

sharp latch
#

I see that now 🙂 Looks good, thank you. I'll run over to Zul again in a bit and test it out properly

#

I forgot to roll out the table that held the info

#

Sorry!

#

I meant to look into that Monday but caught my kiddo's but and was laid out

sharp latch
#

All good! Can't wait to use this in situ and really hoping you are able to look at the movement option becoming world-wide. Sorry to hear you've been poorly though ❤️

If we have questions about the items in the auction, are there particular staff that were involved to email?

Item that you won? Otherwise, I'd probably just chime in here.

Either way.

This has been a fun chat. See you all in the next one.

The last post in here should be Wyrom turning off the lights and a link to the new one 😄

#

Based on past experience, it'll be Wyrom asking, "did that work?" and somebody saying no.

We should take turns posting over and over again hoping to be the last post before it shuts down.

Do we have a date or teasers for the items new to the April auction?

...now if I can just get the auction script removed from mine...

not doing the singing thing though. Just the nose in a book. Hmm. I wonder if I can get that dark elf nose I got from Crondi turned into a bookmark.

If we're doing feature creep of things, you should add a random fall flat on your face/bump into walls for having your nose in a book. 😄

you should be arrested if your face is buried in a book while mounted on a horse

Nah, you're fine unless the horse is drunk too.

#

There are jurisdictions that do not consider a horse to be an autonomous vehicle and do require the operator to be sober and attentive. It's because the horse cannot be held liable.

Because horses are not financially stable

no more reigns of terror like this or you'll make the rest of us whinny. We may even make a Colt. So please, stop stalling now and let's go back to mane event and let us neigh have more of these night-mares....
