7k crowns for 1k energy would be quite the bargain. :o

Anyway, the reason for this is likely because single use mist tanks have a significantly smaller impact on the CE market than mist tank expansions. Three Rings is unlikely to do anything too significant that reduces a player's dependency on crystal energy.

Edit: Oh yes, and as stated above, it favours Tier 3 players far too heavily. These being players who can already run entirely off CE as it is and still profit.

Thank you very much. Now let's stop bumping this.
Dosen't make sense to give the rich people more money in order to avoid their high prices. This is also exactaly why the US economy is so screwed up.

"i'm not going for mathmatical solutions"
so just regular solutions?
I KNOW you mean mist tank expansion, mist only, that's it. That's what I did my math with. I didn't make a solution, I just proved that teir-two players would DEFINITELY PAY 4500 CROWNS MORE. Don't belive me? Try actualy READING my WHOLE post, then comment. Prehaps me typing it over in capital letters might help.

That's the other reason why the US economy is damaged. People don't actualy listen.

It's only additon, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Try learning complex matricies, now THAT gets hard.

I'll shorten it down;

Currently, T3 players make 7000 per day.
With 75 extra mist, T3 players would make 13300 crowns in a day.
That's 6300 more crowns.

Currently, T2 players make 5000 per day.
With 50 extra mist, T2 players would make 6500 crowns per day.
That's 1500 more crowns.

See the problem? If T3 players, the highest bidders on CE, make 6300 more, CE will go up by 6300 in price. T2 players only make 1500 more, so CE is much much harder to buy.

"Orango your prediction is wrong, because its based on two false principles. The first false priciple is that an increased msit tank would mean increased mist rate. "
That was yes, an assumption. Credit to you, though I had to assume one way or the other.

"The second false principle is that being able to do aditional mist runs (by virtue of having more mist) would increase the amount of crowns you can gain per 100 mist spent, as the payouts per levels are untuched, the payout per energy is also untouched."
That's a valid assumption. Why would OOO put in DOUBLE levels, but make them give HALF profit? That's not worth arguing.

SUMMARY AT END
SUMMARY AT END
I'll go to the one point where you did catch me making a guess, and still prove myself right.
It takes 13 minutes to regenerate 100 mist
that's 22 hours per day to fill yourself up
So in the 2 spare hours, you get 9 extra mist each, as opposed to more on T3 due to the faster rate that I assumed came with an expansion.
125 + 9 = 131
175 + 9 = 181
Can't play a 10th of a level, so those round to 13 and 18 levels, respectively.
I KNOW you can make 500 per level on the jelly levels.
I KNOW you can make 700 per level on the firestorm cidadel levels.
500 times 10 is 5000 crowns
700 times 10 is 7000 crowns
500 times 13 is 6500 crowns
700 times 18 is 12600 crowns

So T3 players are making 2000 more per day than T2 players right now
But would make 6100 more per day than T2 players if this was implimented, still going at 13 minutes per mist EACH.

So the difference between their profits increase goes OVER THREE TIMES AS MUCH AS A T2 WITH THE SAME REGEN SPEED. You might be able to make some "theoretical" predictions on how people would "interperet" the CE price, but T3 players would definitely make allot more money money than they did before compared to T2 players, unless you just nerfed the money on T3 levels. That means T3 players make the same money but play longer, and that's a different argument altogeather.

Since you obviously don't think that rich people having more money drives up CE, I'll point out other things that will get screwed up.

Watch me break the auction house with this;

T2 players have to craft 4* items to get into T3.
They have 125 mist.
That's 275 CE, per item.
That's 19250 crowns, if CE costs 7000.
They make 500 per level, that's 38.5 levels to make an item, rounds to 39, since you cant play half a level.

T3 players can make 4* items to sell.
They have 175 mist.
That's 225 CE, per item.
That's 12750 crowns, if CE costs 7000.
If they make 700 per level, that's 18.214... ect levels, rounds to 19 to make it, since you can't play under a level.

So T2 players have to play 39 levels, T3 players have to play 19.

As stated above, T3 players can play 18 levels per day, and T2 players can play 13 levels per day.

So a T3 player can make enough money to build a 4* in 1.055...etc days,and pay 12750, but a T2 player has to play for 2.052 days, and pay 19250.

SUMMARY HERE
SUMMARY HERE
So T3 players can make 4* items twice as quickly for 7000 crowns less, excluding unbinding, that would also effect T2 much more. Imagine trying to compete with a seller that can make things FASTER AND CHEAPER than you, with the exact same quality? Very hard indeed.

Logic!

crown income per day would increase (which would increase crowns on the market and require aditional crown sinks, but that is only valid with the mist rate increase assumption, which is a poor assumtion), but income per ENERGY does not, and its the PER ENERGY income that dictates CE prices most strongly. Using 100 CE to delve after your mist is done will produce the same amount of profit both before and after. However with the far more reasonable assumption of a static mist income rate, If you come in and spend your mist before it caps at 100 everyday, then there wouldnt even BE a difference in what you can do, it would simply give more wiggle room in avoiding wasted mist due to capped tank.

Increasing mist rate will not happen, it would negitively impact the economy in the ways you mentioned in post #18, and reduce CE dependency across the board (which would have negitive impact on OOO's economy as well creating issues with the games economy).

Increasing mist tank may happen but is very, very unlikely due to the issues it would create as I listed in the last paragraph of post #17

Vannaduke gives you 9.5k? Didn't notice.
Anyway, yhea, increasing the mist rate is a no go, but having larger mist tanks would both increase the supply of crowns, increasing the CE price, but it would also decrease the demand for CE, lowering it. Those seem to cancel each other out, but things like crafting will create a constant demand for CE, makeing it go up moreso than down.

I don't think using this system would damage OOO income, but if it did, I'm sure OOO would quickly figure out a way to keep this from affecting their bottom line whatsoever.
