VERY upset, lost over 18k on my Rend Staff?

[Whitedog]

The Rend staff now appears to be going for 1800 when it used to be 20k? That isn't right. I think pirates who had the Rend staff before the update need to be rebated a significant portion of that. A lot of time goes into making 20k.

It was bad enough when they lowered the high level weapons from 15 to 10, but this is a slap in the face of those who worked their arses off for the high level weapons.

I'm sure its a bug. It will be goin back up once they realized it. Until then I'm gonna upgrade

[Steely Jim]

I can only speak for the Dagger quest, but I got the Coltello for free at the end of the quest (It is a pirate's best friend in the right fight. +6 damager per hit. So, the best equipment might all be rewards at the end of quests now, which would make it difficult to charge the prices they had for some of that equipment (for example, the Main Gauche is only 1250 now and it was 10,000).

[Aliese]

I didn't mind the prices at the time, because I had a lot of moolah...

But I just bought a war frigate, and now I'm poor. So, yeah, I want my money back so I can get the other pouches.

[Angel]

WOw, now that urks me. I saved and saved for that one. I mean 10K for a tiny blade with a piece of wood on it?!? Sheesh.

All that gold spent on now somewhat meager weaponry.
Wheres our potco relief treasure chests?

That's why I say rebate, so many hours went into earning money for weapons that have been cost reduced by 90%. I mean even apple sent out rebate checks after they cut the price on the iPhone, and that was real money.

Well, I spent *real* time making a *real lot* of fake money, and I want some recompense. I just don't think it's right.

I think they sent it out with those Crew Kits everyone was talking about. But I strongly agree. It hardly seems fair that people will be able to save a WG worth of gold on what I spent upgrading weapons.

Loot Hard!

[Buccaneer_Lords]

Sorry but I disagree. I spend a lot of gold on the same said weapons but the time I have been able to use them to help me pays for the loss gold. I would not be as far if I did not have those weapons bonuses when I needed them.

Lots of more gold to make with my Treasure Sense 5.

i agree to anyone who bought the main gauche rend staff tri-barrel pistol, or any other upgraded weapon just lost thousands

[mongo]

I've had the tri-barrel pistol for so long it has more than paid for itself at this point. The main gauche- not so much.

Instead of a rebate, how about the ability to sell off the lesser weapons?

this is actually a great idea i love it submit it

[Eustace the Monk]

Sell them off for what? 1/2 current market value or 1/2 previous market value (equating the 1/2 price selling ships and clothing)? If it is current value, no thanks. If it is former value, I see a possible Stock Market exploit: Buy low, sell high. It's just frusterating, that's all. I mean, it is a lot of looting that could have been distributed to guild mates, friends, or clothing for me (I like to shop, go ahead and poke fun) and now I could have bought all the weapons with an hour's worth of gold farming on KH? Hardly seems fair.

"Sorry but I disagree. I spend a lot of gold on the same said weapons but the time I have been able to use them to help me pays for the loss gold. I would not be as far if I did not have those weapons bonuses when I needed them."

I think that this type of argument is missing the point.

The point is that this is inequitable, in that it gives newer players an extreme advantage over those who came before them. They will have these weapons much sooner than you or I did, save a lot of gold getting them, and make gold quicker. In the end they will have the same status, capped amount of gold, and weapons. BUT they will have gotten to that point having done a LOT less work to get there.

Frankly, it cheapens the hours previous players have put into the game.

In fact it wouldn't be so hard to rebate us. Just look for people who have a main gauge. Rebate them 2K lol. But then again those who just bought the Main Gauge when it dropped might accidentally receive a rebate too.
