yep, just see howmany people still bought the EP outfit for 2k crowns. if you continue to whale you get *** up *** like this. that's why i don't buy overpriced vanity items that are priced way higher as they used to be. outfits 700 crowns max. mounts 1.5k max. if the community would actually join in this we force ZoS to overprice everything and milk the community. because that's what their are doing and people are still falling for it....
I don't see enough people purchasing these guys at 5000 each for the price to stay that high. Even if the price never permanently falls, just wait for them to go on sale. That WILL happen eventually.

If they dont see enough purchases within the first week you can count on them being on sale by the end of the month.

But I have never bought a mount and probably won't consider the assistants at that price.
I would wait for an assistant sale and then maybe consider one.
I see this as an item for whales and for people with subs and lots of crowns to spend.

The value of crowns shouldn't be dependent on an "on sale" price. The value should be dependent on the "normal" price. It's fine for each individual to do it for themselves but you shouldn't assume that others received a deal that is no longer available. What about new customers?

New customers should wait for a sale. If they choose to spend more for immediate gratification, that is their choice and clearly it was worth the cost to them.
It is like buying a 4 month old game full price on Steam. You know it will be on sale in a month or so. It's on you if you decide to pay more.

I guess you and I just disagree. The default expectant price is the price of the item outside of sales. Not the other way around.

40% off for me.

Buying banker for sure, we will see on the trader.
lol 5000 crowns..and will be priced at 5,000 crowns to reflect their unique convenience, group-wide utility, and practical services.
Someone please tell me this is an elaborate early April Fools joke?
5000 crowns for an NPC assistant is way too excessive a price. Even 2500 would be way too much.
