This current patch

1. May be one of the best content-wise that has graced the Maple world so far. Hyper skills are obviously a plus, but the Evolving system and the Dimensional Invasion, while may contain bugs/dcs, are definitely some of the best content we've had for a while.
2. Horrible to the economy. Tempest items are going down, Epic items are worth almost nothing. But wait, we can save the world by buying additional potential from the cash shop instead!

More supply does NOT equal less demand. If supply increases and demand stays the same (what is happening) then the prices will simply decrease. It has nothing to do in changing the quality of items either. Plus it would be good for the economy to deflate some. I mean right now everything is so expensive it is crazy.

Since when does a increased supply mean a lower demand? If there is a bigger supply for an item, then the demand will still stay [b]constant[/b] and the difference in between the two will determine the price. It's not really damaging the economy, it just makes getting epic tempest items more cheaper than it use to be. If there was a surplus of every item that's in high demand, then yes, we would have a problem. Of course, I'm not pleased by this to say the least, mainly because I lost a lot of mesos from it.

Yup, merchers taking a hit, but its not like they cannot recover. Most importantly players can afford things now, to some extent. New ways to improve potential usually tends to provide merchers and adventurers alike a way to make mesos and to improve their chars to boss. I am still waiting on how we will be able to handle the bosses when we get that impossible-to-kill-bosses-alone patch.

@OneRockGod: I would have thrown them right at you if you were. Such a pity. Guess I'll just leave them be for when I start on the Fafnir set.

@OneRockGod: They give out epic pot scrolls like crazy anyway (in hot times etc). I still have 5 of them that I just can't seem to get rid of. Not to mention the 80% scrolls from cubes.

@OneRockGod: You can get Tempest items that are instant epic (I think) from the boxes inside evolution world.

I feel bad for people who hoarded rings + epic pot scrolls
had a branch nose myself but I managed to get rid of it for 150m before the price dropped to the 20m it is currently

@ShadeCaro: A tiny bit smaller is probably still as wide as a ranch :[

@ShadeCaro: It won't close the gap, that is for sure. Though it might make it a tiny little bit smaller here and there. It'll at least be easier to get 6 to 9% of a stat on your items.

[quote=Skyenets]It's nice that the lesser funded can get their hands on epic items now. Surely it's a bit hard on those who were merching with it, but they'll find something new.[/quote]

Agreed. This might finally start to close the gap between the funded and the non funded in the MapleStory community.

Also, NPC everything you find in Evolution World. It's worth it.
