perfect/near perfect/greens drop to much...
Petrus
it has come to a point where perefect, almost perfect and greens are worth nothing and its nothing to show either..
nerf drops and greens a lot is my opinion..
evryone can get a max wepon anyway form collectors etc
let keys cost 5x times and remove purple drops. let greens only drop 1/4 of what they do now..
like it now im selling perfect items to merchant and some greens too...
was much better a year ago before chests and greens... then if u got a gold wep with 14 over 50 or 20% hexed was a cool thing..

Nah, the rate is fine, if not too slow. Greens are for easy to get perfect weapons. Cheaper = better. Want prestige? Use a rare skin gold.

i agree with fender, the cheaper the better.
all my casters weapons are crafted, and my warrior/sin/ranger have green weapons that costed me nothing (other than finishing the game thats it ).

whats the fun of having an item that evryone has/can get for a cheap amount of money.. they should make some nice items that are non tradable and limited on each server.. f.ex kill a boss and get a item thats only 10 of each server and linked to you account..

Maybe we should remove PvE part of the game completely and create characters with any weapon/armor/skill we want? I don't think so...
I agree with OP that new collectors and greens killed the market and value of gold items, that simply blows... I disagree on proposed solution tho.
Thom Bangalter
rare skins ftw?
maybe just make rare skinned items less perfect, so that they don't flood the market?
the elite missions greens are pretty valuable. my wing's axe/dragon'screst axe suits me fine, I prefer my gold sinks to be armor.

lmao
the whole game guildwars is built on being a kind of game where u dont have to spend a shit load of time grinding.
go play WoW

i like it this way..for my main chars, i go farm and get those rare golds..but for a random new char, i can just buy perfs for 5k..the cheaper the better, like said before. The purpose of an economy in a game is to supply every1 with what they need, if its cheaper, better for the game.

im talking about stuff that have uniqe names and looks that could reward for rly looooong & hard quest and are not easy to get. (kanaxi and urgoz dosent count becouse evryone has it or can get it if they want to and its unlimited supply of those.)
and i dont play wow becouse i cant afford to pay money evry month... if it was free i would play it...

you could try that.
/not signed it's good as it is, no need to grind if you don't want to

First of all - no matter how hard the quest, someone/some team can and would farm it for all it's worth.
Secondly - Isn't price relative?
Say you have 50k, and a...+30 pommel costs 7k. How is this different from having 500k and the pommel costing 70k?
Thirdly - Why make it harder to be effective? If you want something perfect and rare, go for a 15>50, gold, rare skin. With perfect mods. Greens were designed to be "no grind" weapons. Same with crafters. You shouldn't have to grind unnessisarily to get something as simple as a 20/20 staff.

If all these perfect items are dropping too much then
1: Why am i not finding any
2: Why do they cost 100K plus?

Phoenix Arrows
Not all people have more than 10k. A lot don't. If a perfect weapon costs 15k, they will never obtain the weapon unless they farm. If it is hard for them to get 10k in the first place, they won't get 5k that easily. If everything is 50k+, there would be an excess of items out there because no one would buy them.
I myself use green items as weapons. The only time I spend lots of money is for 15k armor. Too bad there isn't a max req Earth +1 20% chance HSR 20% green...I ended up getting a Straw Effigy.

I think its fine how it is, i got alot of green wepons cuz i really dont care bout the looks of the wep(dump cash on armor ) cuz u only see outside and u are fighting out there no time to model.
my personal experience....been playing for a full year ...almost daily and ive NEVER..repeat NEVER gottten a perfect gold drop( which i consider a wep 15 over 15/stance/enchant with at least 1 perfect mod on it). maybe bad luck idk but its beyond me how ppl go farm and come back with bags full of gold weps...u nerf that drop rate nemore i will nvr see a perfect item drop lol...and mind u i farm wen i can/chest farm in high lvl areas

grinding for a green is bad, and grinding is not what this game is about. Get some fancy eye candy, like a weapon skin that cost more than your house, and then is when you have something no one else has... or will see at least. I mean i got something cheap that i don't actually see many of, the pre order rit staff lol, soo many people thinks it stinks i never see people use it lol.
Nevin
The quality of sellers/buyers has decreased. Atleast thats a personal observation on my part. A few months ago before Factions getting a godly gold would mean plenty of willing buyers. Now it means rushed trade chats that wind up with insulting if your buyer or seller doesn't come to agreement with you.
Kai Nui
I am agreeing fully with the idea of getting rid of non max greens. As for the idea of getting rid of purples, I'd have to say no because it gives variety to the game.
The milk shake
yep, and btw i like increasing key price too
tear
Whether or not I actually agree with the OP, you people arguing about grind and skill etc. need to read the goddamn thread. As you should already know, but in case you didn't he clearly went over the fact that you can get collectors' items and other such perfect items very easily. He just wants something special to work for.

The solution to mudflation is to add item sinks, e.g. items wear out and break unless you pay to repair them. Most MMORPGs have item sinks, but GW does not, since it wasn't supposed to be about gear. In GW you were supposed to get decent gear easily and quickly, and since having perfect gear makes no practical difference in actual gameplay over decent gear, the designers didn't think item sinks were needed.
They were wrong. GW today is *ALL* about loot and items, and the level of mudflation is downright silly, since good items are lost from the game only when someone stops playing and abandons his account.
Anyway, the solution to mudflation isn't nerfing existing items, it's increasing the removal of existing items out of the game. I.e., item wear or bigger bonus for customizing weapons. Everyone hates it, but it's the only way to combat mudflation.

If you say perfect items are worth nothing and show for nothing nemore....then explain to me why perfect wepons with uniqe skins are selling for 100k+ectos. If you say they are worth nothing then why cant i got over to LA put a 20k offer on a max stormbow low req with at least 1 perfect mob and not be called a noob?...worth nothing thats the most rediculous thing ive ever heard.
greens are they way ppl who dont have that 100k+ectos can still get perfect wepons. They help the game out..i mean cmon u only see the wepons outside and shouldnt u be too busy fighting or questing to show it off. U ctrl+click on a really expensive weapon ppl either dont care or accuse u of "ebaying".

Since Factions has so many excellent weapon crafters, I wouldn't mind if greens were much rarer. As long as players have a good selection of perfect weapons they can have crafted for 5K, greens could be super-elite prestige vanity items.
It is kind of silly that a Bukdek Byway crafter domination set costs more than the market value of Korvald's Cane and Korvald's Chakram.

as someone said in apost furhter up, give mor bonus to customizing stuff. 35% f.ex. (i customized both kanaxis edge and axe the day i got em for my war, even when they where worth 100k+10++ e, same with ragos staff for my ele a few days after sf).
there simply to much items and mods in the game. nerf nerf nerf...
Cybah
phoenix blades are rare for example.
the thing is: due to buffed chests too many are perfect xD
that's why they are not that rare anymore lol.
/signed. I want my old chests back.
