Guild Wars 2

add a timer ,make it so the listed item will only be listed for 5 days and then if noone buys the item it will be kicked from list increase the tax rate for prices higher than 500 g
This will remove inflation
this will control the monopoly of precursors
and finally give us the balance we need

cue the laugh track in 3 … 2 … 1

Edit: queue honestly? It occurred to me on the drive home from the grocer that I used the wrong word. I’m getting old.

Dis-incentivise listing precursors on TP.
Reduce supply on market.
Obscure information to buyers and empower price cartels.
Thus increasing prices.
Also, the tax isn’t only paid by the seller. I’m unlikely to buy an item for 1s50c if that sells to vendors at 1s45, because sellers won’t want to list it for less than 1s61c.

and the key to all the Cantha gated content.

works on other games like this , plus i highly doubt it will reduce the supply given most of the precursor cartels are gold sellers .

And let this mount allows you to do interesting and fun things like fishing and gardening (in player house) doing this he will also have a chance to dig a precursor!

I was actually thinking of something like a new LS in which to rebuild LA we need the donations of gold from the players, more gold donated = better LA or at least something along those lines

With this logic, then on my server LA would be a worse destroyed dump than today.

People on my server don’t even wp tocof. They gate to Gendaran then Black Citadel then run two hours through 7 loading screens just to save the two silver thirteen copper and you’re talking about free donations??? … of gold?!?

something similar to the pirate council elections where every player cross servers play a role, but though I’m pretty sure it won’t work as well as planned since the ppl would want something more personal in return, like cheevos or titles, but it’s just an idea at the back of my head

Or they could just make it so that players have a guaranteed way of getting a precursor though precursor crafting. They are working on that. They wanted it released for this last feature patch but they changed so many other things in regards to progression that they have to re-work it some more.

Yeah .. always funny to hear how many players still do that, while in the time for all the loading screens they just need to harvest the next ressources on their way and they have the 2 silver in back in no time.

I’m waiting on this as well. Do you have a link any quotes that regards this issue? I’d like to read over it myself.

What inflation? Is there really an increasing demand over the supply? Or are some price rises mere spikes, and there’s no inflation at all?

I like OPs suggestion tbh.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/bltc/IDEA-add-post-time-limit-to-TP/first

I thought I remembered this subject. It even got a post from John Smith.

Solution looking for a problem. It aint inflation if prices are going up because of Demand going up. Stop spazzing out when it’s not even been a month. kitten after it’s been several months.

I can’t support either idea:

1. Prices rise when the supply doesn’t meet the demand. Taking sell offers off the TP will reduce the supply.
2. Increasing the tax for high-value items will hurt people who get lucky drops. For the 1%ers, it will give them an incentive to raise prices or to hold off selling items, either of which would also increase prices.
