ChuckyPayne✭✭✭✭Gold is good, much more things in the game, need more, houses motifs etc, when we started at 2014 then was enough but now, not and why bother you 100+ hour content give 300k (once) gold not so much especially I do 300k gold/day with 12 charachters daily craft ~ 1 hour (but yes in this thousands hours too)0 -

Not everyone has the time or frankly the patience to farm content over and over again for gold. Or to travel around snatching up deals to flip. Some may only have time for a bit of the activities you listed, and reducing that gold would seriously bone those players.
Like I get that people on this forum are in general more invested in the game than the average ESO player, but sometimes I think it becomes an echo chamber that fails to see other players’ perspectives. Like the posts that call for nerfs to the amount of gold one gets from crafting writs. Yeah, someone who does writs on 18 characters is getting a pretty large influx of gold daily, but they’re definitely outliers and the game should never be nerfed because of outliers like that.

✭Yes...OP nailed it. Challenge comes in two flavors, risk vs. reward and, in this day and age it seems, also tedium vs. reward. Risk vs. reward is pretty easy...fight that tough boss where you risk dying (eh..) and get the reward. Conversely, gather those 300 ore and get the alloy reward. The issue with Antiquities is the tedium from start to finish far outweighs the rewards (I'm sure once you get the orange item maybe it's worth it then?)0 -

Actually, if I ever level a third Antiquarian, I'll probably have a lot more than that.
I did level a third Antiquarian. Now I have 67 Void-Crystal Anomalies.
They're getting less anomalous all the time.0 -

Snatching deals for flip do not cause inflation.
Neither is farming mats.
The total amount of gold in circulation is currently increasing rapidly.
I am only advocating to massively reduce direct gold gain.0
