    Obviously we have been aggressively banning these illegal transactions, now we are trying to find an appropriate price point for legal, legitimate, safe gold purchases. What should 10M gold cost?

    I think ranging 3-5k plat would be better

    I believe only 2-4% (at most) of the AL population would buy that 10m gold offer. 😓🔫

    i can afford but nty 8k plat for just 10m
    it should be at least 35m
    and sts 90% al players are not rich people so
    you think they can afford.

    As it is alrdy mentioned above i think sth between 3000 - 4000 plat would be in a better price range for 10M gold

    The new pricing is just right. Yes, you can make more bang for your buck if you sell kits, taverns, and whatnots. This is supposed to be for those who want gold fast and in legal terms. If we can convert 5k plat to 10M gold, what's going to happen to the market? Who will sell tradeable kits? Who will pop crates? That will put strain on the economy and those who need those items. The instore plat to gold conversion should be the last resort for gold making.

    Add exclusive account bound vanitys or pets for purchasing it at the current prices. Or add anything exclusive to the offer that would make it more attractive and worth it. Making gold 3-4k plat would bring the economy crashing down again don't think that's a good idea.

    There's got to be a side deal for this price, I believe offering free chances at some Locked loot. or just sell whatever it may be(maybe Account bound too)

    Of course the crate key thing was a spitball whatever works for everyone.


    Looking forward to the next expansion hope its coming soon!

    Gold to plat ratio of these gold packages WILL NOT attract buyers

    You will be able to make twice as much selling awakens or other stuff

    You'll need to double that at least.
    Why? Because people can get 10m with 3,4k Plat.
    1,7k plat gives 4-5m if you sell Awakening Kits.
    So to get 10m you'll only need 3,4k plat.

    For 8k Plat i would say at least 20m.
    Anything below will not attract anybody i guess.
    I'm curious where the gold come from at the beginning.

    This is a big joke. 8k plat for 10m lmao no way, for me 8k plat is 24m. These price are a joke, nobody will buy those gold packs. It should be 3.5k plat for 10m. Goodluck if you mind to keep those prices.

    If 8k plat = 20m+, all plat items' price (elite awakening gems, luck kit, ankh ....) will increase because plat players buy gold directly instead of buy those items. Then, F2P will complain more. 12-15m is ok but pls dont ask for 20m, 30m or 35m...

    The most common way to turn platinum into gold is through taverns, luck elixirs, event energies and awakening kits. Generally such exchanges return from 2000-4000 gold per platinum (depending on the input of platinum in the economy). Your new platinum to gold exchanges return around 1200 gold per platinum, therefore this feature will never be used.

    You should segment your consumers. What does this mean? It means that different players can afford different amounts of platinum. Regular players should at least get the minimum of 2000 gold per platinum ratio. A ratio like this won't hurt today's economy as it's currently more profitable to trade e.g. awakening kits at 3-4k/plat. It will also help lazy players acquire gold fast, but at a trade-off. Moreover, it will act as a floor for how low the platinum to gold ratio can sink, effectively keeping prices stable of goods such as taverns, luck elixirs and awakening kits. You should also reward consumers who buy MORE with a premium. With 8200 platinum you're targeting the premium players, the crème de la crème, the cherry on the cake. These players rarely need more gold. They want the excitement of popping crates or the security of being able to buy upcoming unveiled features. In order to incite them to use this feature, you need to offer them a higher platinum to gold ratio (a premium). This should be in the highs of the general ratio, around 4k per platinum.
