Default Raise Gold Cap

Its too low, can't sell a t3 legendary weapon/pet on ah for a proper price. ended up selling a t3 lod for 49m because of this. could have sold it other ways i know but im layz.

Also, even when selling a t1/2 lg its still a balls, when you already have 20m+ gold on you your items wont show up on ah since someone buying it would put you over the cap. This just results in many people buying tcs even when they dont need them, me included

Imo with the current setup in the game the gold cap should be non existing. or at the least raised to 500 mil gold. there are a lot of people that buy even the more expensive time cards that are sold just because they have no more room to hold gold. Paulo's issue with selling legendaries if uptiered is also a massive problem. Yes there are ways to pay for uptiered Lgs but... why would you if one only wants gold?
So fully support either eliminate the gold cap all together or at least increase it to 500 mil gold.

Support from me, ive never been close to it, but it drives up the prices of TCs as its how people store gold, making it harder for new people to afford face with in game gold only.

500m sounds like a pretty big jump, considering it was previously 25m. Raising gold cap to 75 or 100 would still do a lotta good.

A 100 million gold cap seems good enough for now.

Absolutely no support.

Once gold cap is raised people would want to cap it to see flashy big number which will trigger hoarding.

This will result with less trading activity and actually later on will drive all prices much higher. (Greed will tell you to sell for more)

As for t3 LG weapons you don't sell those every day and forum advertising is a great tool to do so.

Storing gold may have many forms and its not only TCS we talk about.

Alternative form could be t30 resins which will be used sooner or later anyways (they don't go bad ☺) or stacks of store bought LG armors which eventually will be up tiered and morphed.

Remember : gold should be a tool to get you things you want not a goal.

Conclusion: leave the way it is . 99% players has no issue with it. And those who do already figured it out - they just want convenience.

when u buy a new car, cost is big, but when u buy a used car, the cost drop. If u want to sell anything used as new, always is hard to find someone to buy something used as a new one with the same money, no matter what it cost him as new.
Maybe i need to ask Glitch to decay lg items, to give less damage and to have less options then the beginning as new, from three in three months, or maybe after any arena. In this case a new crafting skill can to appear - "tehnician" skill, to renew the items. Ofc, lg item can be renewed with one t30 berrie, or ore, or something like this.
Good luck ! :P

This can't be. People won't stop buying resources. In fact, people dont even store their gold in resources. Guess in what they store? Exactly, in TCs. I've seen many players buying TCs because they reached the gold cap.

I don't support raising it over 100 mil tho. 99 mil cap is just fine, it is double of the current gold cap.

Im sorry, but in this you are completly wrong.

Most caps already are at gold max. And some of them have like 10+ toons, all at gold cap, and have hundreds of TCs.

TCs are the prime spot to store gold. Why?? Cause they never go down in value, they only increase.

The more gold someone can hold, the longer before they need to get TCs, or the more the can sell items for, making the economy work better.

At the end of the day, is too much gold in the economy, and without massive gold sinks, that have to provide a greater service than the gold they are removing from the system, then this will continue to be a problem.

My solution: Gold Items. For 1m, 5m, 10m, 25m, 50m. These can stack, to 105 like other items, and be then traded to someone in a town, lets call the NPC the Merchant.
(basically buy from a shop) This will allow you to store more gold on you thats not in TC. You can sell them back to that npc for that amount of gold (besides 50m if you have any gold on you it wont let you sell it). This way, you can do trades with people with these items, it replaces TCs, in part, for sales as well.

TCs will always be hoarded, but this gives another option for gold to be spent, maybe slowing the TC price increase, cause we all know, unless everyone is selling all their stock piled TCs for cheap all at once, **** aint gonna get cheaper

Support, but unfortunately the odds of glitch implementing game changes that reduce TC demand is extremely unlikely

No support. Drop it back to 1M just to make things "interesting" again

Just kidding. I'm not actively playing, but this was a MAJOR issue when I tapped out. Maybe it made sense in 2010, but not anymore when players are running around with T3-T8 LGs on now.
