Combat skills
All Combat skills should take the same length of time to GM, except for Archery. Archery has a beneficial ability (ranged physical) Combat skills should not take any less than half a month to one month to gm. This gives the crafters a chance to catch up with the hunters. (Using my diagram as a guide that is)
Magery
Magery should be a tad harder, maybe about 10000 more reps than it already is in the 85%-GM area.
Healing should be harder aswell, a skill such as ressurection with bandages is fairly rewarding. 100 bandages is nothing, thats 200 gold. I can make that in my sleep currently.
The Skills have been set towards more pvp than actualy economy structure.
It took me less than a week (If I put all the time together macroing) To become strong enough to hunt over 10k in one hour. Okay. Now lets do some math with hunting vs crafting.
10k per hour
Average expense per hunting trip is 1-2k
10 hours = 100k
Or lets split it up a bit.
5 hours a day = 50k per day.
10 days at 5 hours per day = 500k.
Okay, within about two weeks of training and hunting total time, I have gathered half the gold neccesary for a castle.
Does that sound right to anyone?
Crafting.
Ingots sell around an average of 5gp per Iron Ingot
(I am using Iron as a minimum, since I used my hunting figure at a minimum aswell)
So lets say I can mine about 1500 ingots in 1 hour.
(Todays rate, people are either making new characters with 0 mining, OR are selling colored ingots in place of iron.)
So, 1500 Ingots per hour of Iron.
1500 x 5 hours = 7500
7500 ingots x 5 gp per.
37500 gold in one day. Now that is a little imbalanced with hunting already.
50000 - 37500 = 12500 difference.
Lets go even further.
37500 x 10 days of 5 hour days = 375000. Only a quater of what it costs to buy a castle.
Now this is the minimum that I am using in reference.
I know there are monsters that produce more loot. I have heard of people getting 100k in one day from hunting. Thats insane to say the least.
10 days = 1 million IF there are no expenses. Which there will be.
Now there ARE hardcore players out there that can achieve these results.
Within 1 month, you could have extreme amounts of gold.
Well, too late, there already are.
I think Galanthil tops the charts right now with over 1.5 million in products and items.
These are ridiculous amounts.
If this is the case as we have seen, raise prices on housing
Keep guild stones the same price.
Raise prices on boats.
Just some ideas for now. More to come.
