    U are missing the point. It's done so that RICH ppl don't get RICHER. They are the ones who make most of awaken gems not poor ppl.

    Imagine 5 rich ppl with 100m each and poor ppl with 10m each in 2 months rich ppl have 300m each and poor ppl have 30m. See whos gaining more???

    It is not about who is gaining more, it is about giving them the opportunity to make gold. I guess you are missing the point. But what I actually mean is, those who are rich are able to hoard gems in advance to open later for 10k. Those we do not have much gold, they cannot, that’s my point.

    What?? Please rephrase and explain it lol.. I read it 5 times but cannot understand this.. What does this have to do with anything that I cannot afford later? No offense but the difference between 10k and 30k is quite a lot LEL

    I mean if they make tradable gems 10k then gems will not be the only thing you can't afford. Why? Inflation. Ofcourse difference is not much if u see one gem. Imagine 10000x gems difference is 200m. It'll only make a poor person 200m more poorer.

    Well welll it's just better for game in short!
    Ty for your time.

    It is totally not better, if you keep it 10k, the price will not go to 80-100k for a single gem, you may not understand this. But this means the gap of elite gems also increases. Which brings an inflation. I do not know how you people can say this is a good thing, this increases the gap between rich and poor.

    Let’s see what will happen with the elite gems during this event, after it we speak again and you will understand why this is NOT a good idea at all!

    Even if they set the event this way, nothing changes.
    And i completely disagree, that this event wont make rich people richer.
    If the base price is set at 30k. Dont you think it will rise more in future?
    And for example, if the price gets 100k for normal gems and 200k for elite.
    It will be hard to awake stuff, which will directly impact the gears and stuff (everything related to awakening).

    Even if rich wont make super normal profit, they'll definitely make a big chunk of profit, because the logic is simple. More the price you have larger the quantity it can be hoarded, because inventory space wont be an issue this time.

    Rich players don't only get rich via hoarding awakening gems, they got many way to get richer... But now the problem is, because the trade-able awaken gems are 30k, its not as profitable for rich players to horde them. so lets say 2 month later normal awaken gem got 50k, when before in normal time after 2 month of awaken event blue gems price is around 15k... so you see, for rich ppl buying normal gems for 50k wont be anything much, but would hurt for poor ppl if they have to spend 50k for a blue gem! you are trying to not make rich ppl richer but you are just lifting a stone and pounding in your feet!

    -Those 5 people with 100m gold would sell gems worth 300m and those 300m gems that s/he sold would be turned into AWAKENINGS. So gold LIQUIDATED/ SINKED.

    -NO GOLD was added to the economy by the gems, the gold already existed. That player with the gems got some gold and the others lost it when they paid to awaken their gear.

    -The players who had the gems invested a lot of gold and for a long time so it's fair if they get profit in return. The players who bought the 300m worth Awakening gems also enjoy buying them at a low price. Now the player that now has the 300m gold will buy them for 30k and you and others will pay 100k

    -All this new implementation did was rise the price of the gems even more, LOW amounts of gold will be sunken into untradable gems because nobody needs to hoard thousands for themselves.

    -Also HONESTLY few ( if any ) will buy thousands of gems to awaken their gear which they might get in months from now so it really doesn't make sense to me to invest a lot if you don't have where to invest it.

    -Also nobody is looking forward to investing in gems they don't need thousands of and are NOT tradable and ALSO those untradable gems won't last long.

    - A new player can only dream about Awakening their gear when those gems cost 100k+ same as players that didn't participate.

    -Someone said that they won't raise so much because they aren't worth it, well it's true that they aren't worth it but you won't have a choice when you get some new fresh gear and then you think about awakening it because gear with 1 slot Awakening not so good.

    Have fun.

    - they are still profiting. Only issue here is profit, and u can see the merchants clear as day on this thread.

    - Correct.

    -That is not up to you to decide. The Devs care for the core of the game so show some respect. You or any other are not entitled to hoard gems(regardless of your wealth) and make insane profits. The Devs can easily run the "Blue gems for gold" event more frequently, which is a better choice than unlimited gold players making more gold.

    - No and No. Maybe the market doesnt need as much gold removed as u think does.

    -So? Maybe Sts has a certain value of gold they want to remove, you or i do not have these numbers to work with. All you are saying is personal beliefs and speculations.

    - ill take a few thousand gems. Again, does this matter to you? You dont have the numbers to justify if the amount of gold removed is suitable.

    - I play daily with lv 60-75. The guild im in works with these players. They do dream of these awakenings, and someone who cares for the player base and game; should explain that there are much more important things to worry about. I can assure you, this event is a boon and all should appreciate it.


    There is the other side to this post, feel free to choose whichever makes more sense =).
