    Forever currency has been tradable on FV.. for that matter 99% of everything on FV is tradeable. including everything you can buy with currency. so why is currency not tradeable on FV this time around?

    something does not seem right if this is correct. this is the bread and butter of FV (trading things) if it is meant that this is no trade then you are steeling from the entire point of the FV server.

    I would still like to know why? Why all of a sudden make a change to FV currency. Trading things is what FV is about.

    What I was even more shocked to find out is that even the group level currency is no trade..

    Not sure what the playerbase of FV has to do to make someone at DB listed or are we seriously stuck with the stubborn decisions of Ngreth?

    Oh man. Players are going to have to...play.

    i do play.. would be nice to sell the currency rather than have to go through the black market selling crap.

    I cant sell the gear in the /baz cause the stupid price limit.. currency was nice because i could still sell it or buy it and not have to worry about the limit.

    another reason they need to fix the baz limit. or at least allow the trade of currency..

    Making currency no trade and still having the gear tradable was just .......

    So now if someone wants a piece of gear they need a buyer and the price goes up even more, cool.

    Pretty much the whole point of FV is the fact that most everything is able to be bought and sold.

    Maybe to CB next Quarm event from converting the reward to currency to Kronos p
    At it stand you can create a new account, pay one krono to make 12+ every 3 days. Multiply that per each copy of your toon you been able to PL up there + your free time and make the math.

    If gears is not no drop then it come up to the same really, just more hassle for everyone and much more for Quarm.

    Doubt its for that reason though as they could have found plenty of other way to not penalize everyone else

    It has nothing to do with Quarm. If it was a Quarm issue it would been flagged no trade on Quarm and left as is on FV.

    Ask Mages about how TLP can effect current level servers due to class domination on Ragefire and Vox lol. ;)

    While I do believe folks are blowing it out or proportion, and we reserve the right to make future currencies like this Firiona Vie No-Trade, We did go ahead and change it to tradable for the next patch.

    Someone did say it correctly *most* things are tradable on FV, not everything.

    just to confirm, you are making EoK group and raid currency trade-able on FV?

    if so.. god bless you sir. you shall sleep comfortably that you have made the days of so many of the people on the FV server. I would send you a case of your choice of beer if i knew how.
  18. Wizdons Augur



    yup... happy dance time.

    thanks sir.

    you faction is now "amiably" with FV. up from "ready to attack " Hell of a faction boost i must say.

    From a design and game perspective it made perfect sense to have it as no-trade. If it takes five runs to get enough currency for an item - that is a design element. If the currency is tradable, you can pile up the currency from all toons in a group onto one person and they have access to an item before they are designed to.

    Some classes are more equipment dependent. So, using currency from the group to completely gear out just the main tank would speed up the designed progression curve. Not even going into the fact that previously earned wealth can be used to mass purchase current expansion currency to break the progression curve further.

    That said, thank you for making this change! =D

    The no-drop tag has typically only ever been used on some epic weapon drops, expansion/progression items, or situations where having the item tradable was exploitable. The no-trade tag on FV has always been an exception - and that's the way we like it.

    If the Quarm reward was an issue that influenced this decision, I would rather have the special ruleset currency unclaimable on FV than make currency on FV no-trade.
