Raise the alz amount back up to where it was.

[Roy Watson]

The alz amount needs to be raised back up. (in Lakeside, Mutant Forest, Pontus Ferrum, and Porta Inferno atleast)The lower alz amount means more people will need alz/ buy from bots/alz sellers. If the alz amount was higher and players could farm for good money the alz bots will go away cause no one will need it. The lower alz has only hurt the players not the alz sellers. Please change it back to normal. Or change the Alz % gear so it is useful ( 10% now = 50% 20%now =100%) would work too. The economy is a mess.

Its not like your getting a very significant amount of alz as a drop ... Whats the point?

@ Tainted he is saying that we need the alz drop amount raised .. and i would have to agree with him. lowering the alz drop has caused more and more people to buy from the 3rd party sites, and for the economy to drop rapidly. with the drops as is 200-300 per drop on average new players and people that are broke cant afford any gear thus they wont enjoy the game and will quit sooner.

Raising the alz drops will equal out the economy and allow new players to eventually afford decent gears and will help keep a good playebase, the botting issue will have to be delt with manually (ie regular patrols and on the spot banning). if you take away the need to goto 3rd party sites to get the alz then the bots will eventually thin out because they will start losing money.

Also if they wont raise the alz drop then they need to lower the prices for skills, pots, equip ect in game to balance out the econony.

the math ... on average alz drops are 200-300 and gear sells to shops are 15000-24000 on average.

a decent +6 piece of armor in the AH goes for about 15m

15m/250=60000 drops needed

15m/20000=750 Sells to shops

now multiply these by 4 (4 pieces of armor for full set or 6 with weapons)
60000*4=240000 Drops needed without weapons
60000*6=360000 needed with weapons
750*4=3000 ^^
750*6=4500 ^^

and keep in mind that the alz don't drop off every mob every kill ... so yea pleas either raise the alz drop amount or lower the ingame cost for everything. and im not talking a simple 2-3% increase/decrease im talking like a 25-40% increase/decrease

How it is now you dont. That is the point. Before they lowered it with my alz farming set I got 7500 to 15000 for each normal alz drop and 150k to 300k for alz bombs and alot more alz bombs. and could make 3 mill a hour farming now its point less to farm with alz gear.
