Ps4 NA alloy prices

bloodthirstyvampire

What happened to the price of alloy its gone down to 8k in chat it was 10k in march and 15k around Christmas I thought housing would increase the price its dying down people said prices would go back up there still dropping

Cratering. Everyone has their shiny 1T sets. Prices are going back to less insane levels. It's like 5K on PC. Console will hit that next month.

Hallelujah. 10-15k per alloy is absolutely ridiculous.

The housing boom also flooded the market with horded items so that people could sell enough to buy and populate homes.

Orbital

Bots sell 1k raw iron for 32k

I don't understand how people actually enjoy these low prices on literally everything. You do know that the lower prices we have, the less money YOU will make? We see this in real life as well, which is why this system doesn't work and it's horrible.

I used to get about 5-10 Million Gold per month in 2016. I'm lucky if I can even get 100k per week in 2017. It's ridic.

Housing absolutely ruined ESO market. Farming plays a big role of any MMO as it moves the market. Today people don't bother farming because it's not worth their time to get cheap change.

I remember when it was 7k.

xeNNNNN

How in the hell did it get that high?

On PC EU average price is 6.8k lel

I farm for all my stuff.

I don't think I've ever seen the price go below 10k on the Xbox NA servers.

I'm surprised that no one mentioned the fact that the prices in alloys declined, due to less people going the stamina route (in regards to damage dealers). Stamina is now 'out', and magicka is now 'in'. Proof of this lies in the fact that the price of dreugh wax and rosin has risen quite substantially. People are selling dreugh wax and rosin for up to 9k in some places (e.g. Elden Root), with quite a few people I've seen justifying the price. Claiming it to be normal now.

Let's not forget that not too long ago wax was selling for ~5k a piece, when alloys were selling for 10k a piece. ...Coincidence? I don't think so.

5-10 mill a month? That's nuts surely you're a happily retired multi millionaire in game if that's true.
You could buy the whole market of alloys with that sort of income.

Don't give him any ideas lol

The prices fluctuate. It's a normal thing in this game. I think at their highest (since launch anyway), Tempering Alloy was going for 10k a piece on PC-NA. Now it's dropped to around 7k which was the pricing prior to 1T. It's simply the market normalising. I would expect prices to go up in June with Morrowind because of new sets.

SquareSausage

around 1T on PS4 EU alloys were up to 18k each!!!

neverwalk

Tempering Alloy used to be 10k to 12k, now it's at about 7k-8k now on pc.

Pretty sure housing was meant to deflate the market. 6 months with no need to re gear and the massive gold suck of housing. Morrowind will likely have a few more must have gold dump homes.

I love low prices because I don't sell anything to other players as I refuse to pander to ZOS' lame guild-based economy where I'm forced to deal with guild leader drama .. the lower the prices the better I like them!

Lower prices might suck on a per item basis but if you can move more stock, it usually makes up for it. And people still farm. I do multiple runs a day. There is money in the housing materials right now as well as in the sub-legendary improvement materials.

If you don't farm you want low prices.
If you farm you want high.

As other say, no new sets so players are maxed out.
Housing generated got many to sell out caches and it was more farming for housing mats.
Morrowind with rebalancing and new sets will change this.

Low prices and less gold is far superior to a small group of people manipulating the market.

When what they are actually doing right now is hoarding gold mats for low prices waiting for morrowind only to artificially inflate prices again.

I'm not shedding tears for low prices nor will I shead any after morrowind when the same guy buying materials for 4K is selling them for 20K.

Still 13k in PS4 EU...
