adam- Posted May 24, 2013 Report Posted May 24, 2013 Too many thana's around now days. Getting sold for 2.5k, to me Thana should be more of a rare card than that. Any for you newbies who disagree because you want to hunt Thana think of it this way, if Thana drop is lowered the price will rise, so when you do get lucky and get the card it will be worth more I don't think it should be too significant of a drop decrease right now it is at 1.4% and .7, I'm thinking along the lines of .5 or .4 and 1 on weekends or .8-.9
Lenneth Posted May 24, 2013 Report Posted May 24, 2013 Actually judging from effort and drop rate, i would say Thanatos card to have a fair value of around 2k tokens. By lowering drop rate u gonna have ppl trying to OP it again. Not to mention now that event tokens (ppl use that for thana scrolls) had a shrink in supply due to xmas quest removal, and class change which has a chance to summons thana is removed from hocus pocus. So it's a -1 for me.
masterneil Posted May 24, 2013 Report Posted May 24, 2013 Bro now the drop rate ia freakin low.. I wasted almoat 2k event tokens juz on scroll since 2008... And all i got is around 1-3 thana card.. Only 1 left now.. Bro now the drop rate ia freakin low.. I wasted almoat 2k event tokens juz on scroll since 2008... And all i got is around 1-3 thana card.. Only 1 left now..

So it's a -1 for me. Well the point of my suggestion is to lower the Thana card drop rate, which yes, would raise the price of the card. There is still many many Thana cards in the server, and they implemented the mini game tokens which is a very easy way to earn event tokens to buy Thana summon scrolls and of course you can still hunt it.

That sucks man but really it's about luck haha you could have gotten 7 or 8 Thana cards. and 1.4% for the most expensive card in the server isn't that low.

Well, I think it just needs to be looked at that the card can only be spawned from the quest bcuz people are gettin it from BBs & Before it was Sage Skills. That MVP is a quick ticket to being rich if luck's on your side. Edited May 24, 2013 by Hypnosis
GenericName Posted May 24, 2013 Report Posted May 24, 2013 -1 thana prices dropping is finally starting to stabalize the economy again, the last thing we need is another item worth 10-12k... 1
adam- Posted May 24, 2013 Author Report Posted May 24, 2013 -1 thana prices dropping is finally starting to stabalize the economy again, the last thing we need is another item worth 10-12k... You think the market is becoming stable? I think it's the opposite when 90% of the market here is people trying to make money off of others buying and selling. Also prices of rare emps and imps are far from stable.
Hypnosis Posted May 24, 2013 Report Posted May 24, 2013 (edited) Market is not stabilizing. I see items prices fluctuating constantly. It's far from Stable. & Then we have all you people who think you're geniuses with your little get-rich-quick-schemes, That shit ruins the market, too. Buying Tokens for less. Selling items for more. Set the prices and keep them that way, That's how the market will stabilize. We need to have some sort of base price. One day ago I was selling an ROP for 1.2-3, Some guy tries to tell me it's worth 1,000 only. That's stabilized? It's just a bunch of kids playing with the economy. We need some type of base price for Donation items for the market to stabilize. a Set price on Tokens, not 30m one day, 50m the next. It's anything but stabilized, Buddy.

Rayray Posted May 24, 2013 Report Posted May 24, 2013 Been here for so long, I gotta tell you guys, economy is going stable right now. You don't see TG and other basic MVP cards besides kiel and tgk being sold at 100 tokens each right? I was able to live through the worst economy we had, where thanatos costs 10k, emps costs 2k(green, purple,orange) 4k blue emp, mvp cards at 100+ tokens each. Lowering thana rate. I disagree for a few reasons. one is it is already low. The reason Thana is going 2.5k nowadays is not because there are tons of thana card around, it is because fewer classes NEED thana, hence the card is not being bought. 2nd reason is if we lower the rate now, price will go up, which will not help newbies but only help those rich enough that has a few thanas they do not need. 3rd is once you get a thana card, you wouldn't need another one(unless you are a champ). you probably would just decard it if you need it for another character, which makes thana less desirable for people who has it making thana costs less because it is not being bought. Again, the reason Thana becoming cheap is not because of a sudden influx in supply, it is just that people do not really need thana. We got crit sinx, int biochemists, FAS snipers, Spiral Pierce LKs, Full bolter profs, and Paladins that populate the server that does not need thana to be effective. Add the fact that we have skoll which makes thana useless most of the time. Lowering the rate of thana makes no sense at all.
zergling Posted May 24, 2013 Report Posted May 24, 2013 You must be joking... I have over 300 thana kills and haven't gotten a card. Sorry but no fuck you the drop rate doesn't need to be reduced. The card is fine as it is and if you're going to bitch about the price well it's better than trying to buy a thana and people trying to sell for 25k+ so no -1.
thejay2xa Posted May 25, 2013 Report Posted May 25, 2013 -1 for this sorry I don't think reducing drop rate would work, it would even raise more issue imo.

Poor you Theo, like I said it's about luck. Instead of trying to bash my suggestion get over it yourself. I know people who have killed only 20-30 Thana's and have gotten a card. And with hundreds of Thana cards around do you really think the price will go up that much? For example take a look at the Forsaken Dagger, that quest has been taken out of the server for awhile and yes the dagger's price has increased but your just throwing out numbers to try to support your point. I get that you have a lot of emotion towards this or whatever man, but calm down man it's just a suggestion haha Edited May 25, 2013 by adam- 2
Rayray Posted May 25, 2013 Report Posted May 25, 2013 The difference between thana and forsaken dagger is that thana can still be gained, forsaken dagger cannot be. So that is not a good comparison :p

bboygarrison Posted May 25, 2013 Report Posted May 25, 2013 -1 on this man sorry... if you wanna make thana expensive, it'll just be wrong... i see in this server lotsa OP items/card.. whenever one card/item's price increase/decrease, the other prices will follow. so making thana expensive and literally impossible to get, will just make other cards/items expensive too. people are greedy bro, i too tend to be greedy, but some are just too much. they take advantage on others for their benefit. i always thought this game was about playing/enjoying... but if that is approved, i guess im going to only see people lying/tricking other people.. which isnt the main purpose of the game... and also, if that is approved... the newbies MIGHT not want to last in fRO...
zergling Posted May 25, 2013 Report Posted May 25, 2013 The newbies won't last long here if that happens. Thana price will skyrocket causing the other MVP cards to jump up in price. Newbies won't be able to farm MVP cards or be able to buy them making them feel useless and they will just leave. The setup right now is fine as it is.

zergling Posted May 25, 2013 Report Posted May 25, 2013 As soon as thana price goes up the other prices will rise even higher just because people always think "he's raising the prices and selling items so why don't I do it too." Like normal and that will end up killing the economy.

Like normal and that will end up killing the economy. Idk man I've seen one emp go up in prices and the others stay the same. People raise prices all the time and as long as people don't buy into OP items then the price won't rise.
Veracity Posted May 26, 2013 Report Posted May 26, 2013 We increased thana drop rate for a reason, we won't be decreasing it again. It wasn't working before and it wouldn't work now if we did it. It's better for the server as a whole if it has the drop rates it has now. :)
