Well, instead of crying at the bazzar I decided to take medic and hope tips would allow me to get some decent stuff. (no flamming towards Blackthorn here)
LOL I'm wounded! I only sniffled a little.

I guess i am like the grandparent that says " i used towalk 16 miles through the snow for my pants"....
I started the 1st day and actually did the BH grind without even mounts/speeders and with the white con bug.
I just dont see the fun if you start the game and get everything handed to you. Then you just sit there and complain about no content. Maybe if you did it yourself, then you would be having much more fun for a longer time.
I am no noob hater and have taken many out to hunt/ given creds to or set up with a little job.
Yes, money is a bit hard in the game at the begining, but i mean there has to be some amount of work to get to a point where your fine.

I'm not asking for comp to fight nuna's
I'm not asking for someone to hand me money.
I'm simply showing a POV that I have, that prices have gone up on items that used to be cheaper back in the day *rattles her walker*
The quality has not improved on many of these items, only the price has increased. When I see stats not changing on items and prices going up that tell me inflation and inflation is bad.
Perhaps I am on the wrong server *shrug* It's good to see vendors out there on other servers that sell stuff for low prices. I;m hoping in the area of armor and weapons I can do that as well. But I can only go from my limited experieces of my "mini-alts" and my primaries on starsider
As a note I did not inlcude include an of those primaries for anything other than PoV of a crafter they were all guilded from day one of play.

A certain amount of inflation is fairly normal and not bad for an economy.
The thing is we all have only a small amount of data on the real economy for our server and our server is only one of 20+. So we as individuals only see a very small piece of the picture. Yes there is inflation in some goods, but others have gone down in price or bounced around. And every server differs a fair amount.
What is the over all percent inflation rate for any given server? I don't think any of us knows.
Its like we're all arguing whether it is too hot or not and nobody has a thermometer.

WELL IN THAT CASE are you single???
maybe I'm the one playing on the wrong server
Inflation is normal, but it's one of those things that people hear it and assume something bad is occuring. So what are we talking, a D44 pistol is now 6k instead of 5k so now we destroy the balance the economy has achieved to correct for a 1k difference in the price of a lower end good???
Tell me this, was there any discussion a year ago of how to take credits from people that have earned them??? 6 months ago??? 3 months ago??? There was no concern to how much someone else had because the mechanism is in place for you to do the same, here's a concept, it was all dependent on how much effort you put in.
