The reason SnS demise was guaranteed was because of it being added as a token pet, which was a VERY BAD IDEA, if they kept it as a drop in cryogem locks or made rengol locks indigenous to rengol maps they could have kept lock crate prices up and thereby guarantee something more to farm for us farmers but they didn't and that's the way the cookie crumbles. On top of that were the 2x SnS chances and all the plat sales, just nott the RWTer bans.
As of now the items are selling for the 10m exorbitant price tag because there are hardly any in the game, don't expect the items to be down to 5m for atleast 5-6 months(key being at least). I'm sure I can loot something in 5-6 months. I'll easily make profit even if I did spend 5m, but is it worth the time I've spent? Probably nott. Spending 25 hours to loot something 10m with an investment of let's say 1m will come to the rates of 370k/hour for the ones who get lucky, which is a lot more than fang rates were. This can be blamed on the people who've been complaining about how monotonous the fsng system was. STS took the feedback of "I wanna feel the thrill and joy of looting something super rare that makes me feel super lucky!".
The reason there is nothing to farm in Elites is because the elites haven't been updated with the drops for the upgraded version of the antignome set. If you read the dev posts they did say people who have the antignome set will have an undue advantage and be the only ones who are able to farm the upgradation items for the antignome set. The latter being a VERY BAD IDEA.
The lack of versatility in the antignome set can also be blamed on forumers(myself included, in this case more so than the one before) who demanded for a lack of versatility in gear and therefore mode gear choices.
I did ask for ultra rare drops to make us go yay, but I also stated how the fang system was excellent and kept most farmers happy because even if they didn't profit they broke even x)
I seriously doubt that is the case :P
Nott to sound like a know it all but the biggest reason the economy ping pongs is because STS only starts banning RWTing accounts once/twice a year. If they carried out this strategy throughout the year, instead of only bot banning they could RWTer ban too, we would have a much much stabler and healthier economy.
