EXALTED ORB Price Shenanigans [Delirium] 127:1 What is even going on?

this is actually getting not fun at all

It's not inflation.

Crafting recipes costing exalts, exalt price goes up.

Something that was a staple 2ex item last league should not be a 2ex item this league, it should be 1.5 or lower because items are technically bought in chaos but listed in exalts for ease of trading.

Not many people actually wanted exalted orbs which is why it was always so easy to trade up chaos for them.

Now everyone wants exalts for crafting bench which devalues chaos which makes chaos spamming cheaper which should increase their price but it doesn't.

Buying items for chaos right now is peak performance, buying items for exalts is stupid unless you are top 1% currency farmer.

These prices are not normal at all. I hope GGG do something. In addition to bans, they can replace some of the recipes on the crafting table from 1ex to 100c.

Or boost shaper and elder rare rings and amulets drops.
Exalts will be cheaper then

I like both of these ideas.

Yeah.
Also Zana can sell maps for a choice - or you use chaos or chisels or alchs.
Alchemy costs are skyrocketed due to zana too.
To the point where alchs are more rare than chaos.

Except fossils have made chaos obsolete. Why spam chaos hoping for mods when you can target them with fossils? How many chaos would it previously take to roll +energy shield and +es%? A single dense fossil can do that now. For ~5c you get what might have taken 10c.

Sheeple, it is what it is....

2 weeks i don't drop an exalt . My friends also. GGG manipulates "rng" and ofc exalts rise in price cuz no one drops

Well, RNG is RNG.
I'm at my 5th exalt dropped on this league ATM.
Last league I did drop like ~12-13 Ex and I played only at the two last month.

Exalts are not the only way to trade for items and progress through the game.

I don't know why people bother this much about exalts and cry about it in every league because the price always skyrocket.

In Betrayal, we have new crating recipe tier who require exalts, so it's not a surprise that exalts are so much exepensive.

Crafting is a huuuuuge deal in Betrayal. Expect the exalt to go closer to 200. Supply is def lower than demand

I am really amazed how people always try to explain ex:chaos ratio with "chaos recipe", "zana mods", "easy to farm chaos" - you name it and yet ratio only changes after ban waves. I wonder why...

Bots are most important factor. Other factors are pretty much irrelevant.

Time to get it already.

So if it takes 8 pure ex for me to craft a 440 pDps foil + hits can't be evaded mod, but would otherwise just sit on 8 pures, then does that mean bots are responsible for this?

I'm not saying they aren't raising the price but let's be honest there are a ton of very good crafts costing pure exalts which are well worth the price.
