Those who say Hiram is fine are stupid enough to think that people are ACTUALLY going to do farming, fishing, trade runs, alchemy, mining, husbandry, commerce, gathering, etc to progress instead of the upcoming dailies that are probably going to kill this with the new player progression system: Hiram.
And before you come with the good old ¨But Hiram takes a lot of gold to level up so people are going to do this¨ please, do you really think that people are not going to do anything else than grinding for gold by farming coin purses or fucking dailies?
People will go full dailies since Hiram requires XP and the only way to get them is with D A I L I E S and those D A I L I E S give you gold but also they give you the XP you need to level your Hiram gear.
Hiram is good enough to fight against erenor and comparing the prices of both erenor and hiram, erenor falls apart really quick.
This kills the Sandbox archeage has right now, you can do anything and get good profit out of that and buy/craft your gear, potions, accessories, food, materials, vehicles, ships, etc, etc. and it's not only do 1 thing, you can do alchemy and level gathering at the same time beacuse you need to plant for materials giving you the option of making/buying bundles and use them for faster production, make opaque polish and the higher tier materials that require high alchemy profiency and sell those for good prices and get profit out of that while you can also do metalwork with those materials since you can make sturdy ingots and craft higher tier materials for metalwork, leatherwork, tailoring, etc and you didn't even realised but you are making a lot of gold by yourself without making the same thing as always and slowly expanding all your gold making ways.
Upcoming patches are going to kill this.
If you want time, we can give you a lot of time to change all the bullshit that XL Games brought to archeage and make an actual good game compared to unchained's bullshitery.
-Don't add Hiram
-Fix Obsidian
-Drop the proficiency requirements for weaponry and other prof that are required to craft your own gear so it's not a hell to level it up and get good end game gear OR just remove the regrading requirement that makes crafting weapons for leveling weaponry a massive gold sink that brings these people that want Hiram gear on the private server.
-Don't become a retail or this server is going to be dead, people from unchained that actually know what archeage was are coming to the private server beacuse they hate 6.0 archeage.
-Don't Nerf trade runs and other good ways to make money.
Sorry for my average english.
