Simple proof of Vanilla WoW prep before raid

Alright, let's try a new tactic today!

Items will be repaired using components from crafting which will be made by many people.

Players will need to consider carefully what types of gear they want so that they can repair them consistently.

For example, Iron Chainmail Vest would need Iron Chainlinks to be repaired. So no matter how many Iron chainlinks are made, as long as anyone is using any Iron Chainmail Vests, someone will always need to go out there and spend an hour or so collecting iron if they want to fully repair an Iron Chainmail vest.

There might be some higher level armor like a Byrnie with more materials for special effects but is also still based on Iron chainmail, and so, you would still use Iron Chainlinks to repair it, probably up to a certain level.

So there would always be a demand for Iron, and many people would have a reason to keep a supply of Iron Chainlinks in their node. So it will always matter. You will have to go out there and work, either killing mobs, being hired as a mercenary to fight or protect someone else, or doing your profession, to afford Iron chainlinks.

There are many reasons why it is important for players to be able to farm very specific NUMBERS of gold per hour, but you noted before that you just want 1h of farming to be the cost of 1 powerful potion, is that right?

It would be quite difficult to design a game where a player can only farm a few Gold (assuming Gold is the lowest currency unit) per hour.

My experience indicates that the lowest you can usually drop in a fantasy game is 4,010 Currency per hour. I prefer double or triple that amount.

It doesn't matter exactly how the Currency works as long as the LOWEST unit doesn't drop below 4,010 per hour earning. So if a Sweet Potion costs 4000, that's okay with you, right?

That's great. Please farm a lot and sell the pelts and hides in your Node. I am sure that many people will need them for repairing their various shoes and other pieces of leather armor.

Games that take their economy design seriously don't have these problems. I'm sure Ashes will do very well. It's not very difficult.

And if it turns out that I only think it isn't very difficult because I've been studying it for so long, well... I'm here, so it's fine.

Look forward to a great economy in this game.

Farming for 30h should always be 'easy' because it is fun.

If you're not having fun, do something more fun to make money.

That's the point of a good economy.

Obviously mounts are the most valuable thing in WoW.

Can you imagine what would happen if a player just 'didn't buy them'?

How would they even keep up?

I don't pay too much attention to Asmon's opinions on non-wow shit, but when he talks about WoW (and chat usually agrees in big numbers) - I at least trust his experience. Here's a very nice clip about the vanilla world raid prep
