Is this new currency lets call them “Dark crystals” for ease, going to be given to tpvp/soloque players only: in the form of dungeon tokens the number of which is based on magic find via tourny win chests?..

Otherwise I’m not really seeing a point to phasing out Glory…It’s actually working as intended now with the “temporary” glory merchant I think… Flattening out the pvp gear structure and prioritizing Gem store gear over high end pvp gear.. as every rank 20 is in t3 now..

I’m trying to find more info on phasing out glory, can you tell me where you saw it?

I have loads of glory but only 9 gold, so if glory is being phased out I don’t know how I will use it (I can’t buy much at all from the new vendor because you need gold+glory).

here’s a tip.

if you have 200 glory, u can convert them into 20 silvers
i.e. if you have 200k glory, that means 200 gold for you.

the prices are still decent at the moment.
the demand is still larger than supply by a lot.

i hope the prices are still good when i get back home 5 hours later.

update:
kitten!
the buy price dropped a bit.
kitten bears are being stingy.

sell price is still ok though.
if people would just stick to the sell price then it should be okay.

since overall supply is still much, much more lower than demand.
the current demand is more than 2 times then supply actually.

The price has actually been steadily rising since release… I’m thinking there’s a reason for all the demand :/

Why do the new venders have items for gold+glory if glory is being phased out? I don’t see the logic; wouldn’t it make more sense if the items at the venders just used glory?

Hmmm, at about 9:30 they say that the new venders sell items for glory+gold because players are concerned that people will be able to just come in and buy everything up with gold.

That seems to contradict what they say earlier about getting rid of glory. Confusing.
