Level 6 maps were selling very rarely for 20k. Very few people collected them to sell even when a lot of people were doing tmaps. In times past you weren't able to walk through the trammel or fel woods without being ambushed by AW's.Amish Hammer wrote:-if the gold increases with each level of the maps. it will give a 'set' price to the maps, which will make it more worth saving the maps when you kill mobs that drop it. they will have a resell value close to whatever is in the chest +/- the item prices and gold that drops form the mobs. This would make it so everyone benefits, those who sell it, those who would dig it up, everyone profits.
I remember one particular excursion I was looking for a house. I started recalling around the islands. A few of the rune spots were same screen as treasure chest locations. At one of these locations, a guardian killed me as soon as I recalled in and there were no healers on that island.
People would do tmaps now if gold wasn't so inflated that you can't buy any decent items from doing 50 chests. Yes, they need a slight gold bump, but 30k for one chest is too much. Half that is more reasonable. Would prefer a gold sink be implemented first.
