Ever since dinging 25, I need 100 copper just to teleport, and the things I used to do for money largely involved selling craftables and selling refurbished junk. But with this pawnbroker nerf, I wonder how in the world I am ever supposed to make money. I don't think anyone buys much refurbished gear (why would they? The normal stuff is easy to make/find/obtain), and its not very often I actually get a Tier II tech/forms. Also, most of the Tier I tech/forms I have been finding have been worth under 50 copper each (some of them I can't even get to sell for 10!). Half of that 27 silver I got was from the few days I spent endlessly killing the Lv1 straw doll ghosts on that island near Parsinia, trying to get IBMs and Tokens so I could buy the forms/techs for my next claw/scale upgrades.
So that leaves me to ask, how in the world are we supposed to make money? I hear that lair auctions are over now, and that your average lair costs a whopping _five hundred_ silver. I look at my 27 silver wallet and I'm just shaking my head, wondering if I am Ever going to enjoy any of these things myself. I don't want to be a hatchling forever, I have already been in this game for 3 months, now admittedly I had taken a couple weeks off due to IRL, but geez. Did they want Only Lv100 dragons to have lairs or something? I dunno I just feel that its disheartening, hoard items rarely drop, too. My hoard is starting to fall behind my level (I'm supposed to have 57K hoard, I only have 39K) and monsters equally levelled to me are starting to get harder and harder to kill because of the small (but noticable) lack of armor/breath weapon power/etc that hoard gives.
I'm just not sure what I am supposed to do about this.. trying to level crafting, and adventure level And trying to get some money, ugh. I'm sorry if this post sounds whiny, but I think they could have been a little more considerate to the lower level peeps when they made that stupid pawnbroker nerf.
