So, I've been in and out of this game for 10 years now, I'm returning back from a 3 year break and there seems to be a lot that's changed.

 

This is coming from a guy who remembers the days of Vital/Mana Jelly economy implosion.

 

3 years ago things weren't that costly, item mall was sort of new so that definitely started messing with things, but prices were generally under 1b.

Now I check on the state of the union, and I'm seeing 100b for this, 200b for that, etc.

 

Is there a guide out there that explains the current state of the economy? Is there a legitimate path to developing wealth?

In the economy I knew, the best King drops were essentially worthless, but once something was max refined it became the base unit of currency. Gems in particular were commodities essentially used as currency.

 

What is the current economy based on? Refined gems? Refined equipment? Scrolls? Summons? Vehicles? Runes?

Is in-game currency effectively useless due to Item Mall ingress?

 

I'm a little lost.

General Rule of thumb. If it's an event item, a quest item, or something you can earn yourself with reasonable time [set by your own standards] don't buy it.

If it's anything else, you'll probly have to pony up the dough.

Economy is broken. The only way to fix it, is to reset it.

According to my research on this forum, the current economy is solely based on re-roll hammers.

 

There doesn't seem to be anything in-world that works as a staple.

 

The price of everything seems to be based on how many hammers it might reasonably take to get said item.

 

...with the presence of items like that from the item mall, I don't think the economy could ever be un-broken, even after a reset.
