Just in case this reaches a Dev who is not familiar, in nearly every situation where the loot is good in BDO and it doesn't have the restrictions being 'talked about' here, this is actually exactly what happens.

So, actually, it is true, and it absolutely does happen in BDO, BDO just doesn't care .

Understood, I'll clarify further just in case.

In the context of this discussion where Pokkitt is talking about chest opening, quest clearing, etc, the equivalent things in BDO (event mobs, field and world bosses, sea monsters, some other related quest things), this happens almost immediately.

To the point where you can use it to predict economic flows, and the Devs use it to outright manipulate them. I hope that's clearer. If you give people a Quest to kill world boss Nouver for a certain event period, during that event period, Nouver is zerged so hard that I have seen it be downed in 22 seconds .

The result is a massive increase in Nouver sub-weapons on Auction since aside from the top 10 or so damage dealers in the fight, everyone has a separate 'roll' for whether or not they get the box.

BDO can manage this because most of the things they do it for are not persistent like the Commissions board would be, but they do have content like that. The simple outcome is that people do group up and zerg through that content so quickly that the value of anything from it drops instantly.

Occasionally they make what I consider a 'mistake' and make that content type able to drop 'Gold Bars' which can be converted directly to ingame currency. This results in hyperinflation until someone fixes it (and hopefully scolds whoever put a currency faucet on a repeatable non-event).

Thank you, Mag, for reminding me to be more explicit in making sure people understand.

Did... did you just forget altogether that we are talking about a Commissions board?

YOU were the person who brought up the chests, Mag!

You built three separate strawmen to pretend-argue with, all the while Pokkitt was asking you 'what are you even doing?'

If you want to argue with your strawmen, do it in your own head please .

Assume I won't.

I needed to deliver some information to devs in the tiny chance that they didn't have it. I did so. You can make a post with Narc's video and do an in-depth reaction for them based on your perceptions of... what other people are challenging... or something.

Or you can assume they'll watch it and understand what you meant. If that's the case, then my contribution won't matter and you can ignore it.
