Hello Aragon, I would like to thank you for all the effort and work you put into your videos to help us and get a better overview of everything. I have been watching your videos for years now, and even though I often take a break from Neverwinter, I always watch your videos when I play the game again and always find the excitement of the game. Unfortunately I'm always behind and never have resources so I always give up after 2-3 months. I really enjoy your videos and thank you very much for them. I wish you all the best and lots of fun playing the game.
I got 60k Zen waiting in the bank but they haven't been putting any banger on the zen market since forever... Summer, Black Friday and Christmas were all duds... I'd expected they would bring back the pack with NW knight, tutor, spined and all, instead they bring the green mount collection and single purchase overpriced butterfly... I hope they bring something good soon...
Not sure what side of the fence you are on? Are you asking should all platforms have access to command codes, so the markets can be equal? Or are you asking to make all platforms use a common marketplace?
Well, my two cents worth is we all pay the same amount to buy Zen, we all need the same tools to make the game fair for all players on all platforms. And this would give a path to crossplay in the future.
I do this for almost 2 years (psx) and I never spent money in this game and buyed mythic collar box (9000 zen) twice or whatever it's worthy to buy. Really a nice compromise if you think about it even if you need to wait between 2 or 3 month ( recently 2 months and a couple of days). 9000 zen are like 6750000 ad comparing 12-15 mln on ah or how much it cost you on materials.
Because they removed all other currencies. You have pay with Dollars. Before.that you can pay wüth your currency and it has been cheaper than paying with dollar. So many people used to be afford that. But now you have to pay more more money. So zen buyers are decreased
I'm not surprised they didn't wipe the backlog out yet, it's over 300k USD at this point. You can't just wave a wand and pop 300k USD into existence without major currency inflation. Years of neglect, bad offers & mismanagement allowed a tiny issue to grow out of proportion. Until they find a way to fix it, a lot of F2P folks will suffer, and in effect probably ditch the game - that's on Cryptic though. They reap what they sow. The market is still abundant for decent MMOs - and if they want to survive to the next anniversary, it's time to stop milking the same, obsolete content dry & hoarding stuff to drip-feed the economy. Hope they'll figure it out and finally do something. There's a ton of work to do in terms of current AD sinks, who they target, and why it does not work; Definitely not an easy issue to approach, but a silent game killer if they'll just ignore it like for the past few years. There are a few low-hanging fruits they could use quite easily, players could provide a ton of valuable feedback in this matter - I just doubt Cryptic cares enough to listen.
It's much too long to buy zen in astro diamonds, the devs have to face like on xbox so that it's almost instantaneous because it's useless if you play for free because it's too long and it scares away free players. since 2013 it hasn't moved....
So this means that there is a problem with the few players there are on PC, the devs need to create enthusiasm for the game to find enough players on PC, I'm not sure that this will change much Things at the time were already that from memory.@@Aragon-
players on PC are usually people that don't have free money to spend on a game, to buy zen. Versus on consoles, you already buy a console just for games, you probably have more to spend on a game you enjoy
i love the zen market on xbox its so easy to make AD and zen, and once you have a good amount of zen i.e. 25k you can make good AD for free each day. i will look at prices and say buy 25k zen for 550 AD each and then put up for sale before bed at like 555 AD per zen. it doesnt seem much only 5 extra AD but x25 is 125k for not doing anything, even if you only make 1 AD its still 25k for free. and once you learn the trends like weekend increases and new lockbox ect you can make like 500k plus a day for free. some times i just sit there for hours and buy and sell for 1-2 AD profit and can make millions in a sitting. thanks for the video as always dude much love from the xbox comunity
One of the biggest bullshit that ruined the game. When high value products start to be sold in the Zen market, the waiting amount suddenly increases from 500 thousand to 60 million. The game economy has never improved. Selling valuable items earned from the dungeon in the Zen market is one of their biggest mistakes.(collar - companion.......) Even though they knew it was eroding the game, they allowed this to make more money.
I returned to the game after a break of a year and a half (in gear from the dragon hunt). I have bought something to increase my gear to 87k, than after 7 days of playing it, i going to take another 1-2 year break)) I tried to finish adom 10 times, (3 successful, 7 failed), and mdom only one time. almost every time I dealt almost twice as much damage as the damage dealer on my team. At the same time, we had to wait for a queue for several hours, because most of people ignored me, because my gear not perfect in their opinion. and what is all this for? for the sake of dubious gear that increases your item level, but is absolutely useless in terms of stats. So many efforts for nothing, besides, most players do not know how to play, even though they have gained a high level of items. I don’t know where the developers are taking this game, but it looks like they want people to hate it)
@@Aragon- woow just woow u remind me of the internet company contract I misred part of their contract similar to your OR..... It is me who's stupid 🙃nice job salesman
Xbox and PS4 had 6 and 2m backlog now xbox have none and ps4 is like at 3 so we are getting closer to a good balance. They just need to sink more ad to make it more valuable, astral lockbox a new mount like eclipse lion and other things. Xbox always vary between 500-620 per zen but its been always instant for the last year
@@jasonbentel3924 unless there's something actually valuable in the zen shop. If they wanted the backlog to keep rising, they would actually put good stuff on zen store lol
PSN, my last exchange came through on 12th Jan, the listing was created 15th Nov. So it's just under 2 months.

I have no clue how to make Zen with astral diamonds, this is perfect I’ll watch it fully later tonight.🙏🏻👍
Happy I could help :D

I'm waiting for them to release the golden companions again so the ones in the AH get cheaper
Not sure what side of the fence you are on? Are you asking should all platforms have access to command codes, so the markets can be equal? Or are you asking to make all platforms use a common marketplace?
I don't really mind either way. Might be best to keep markets separate. If anything just make crossplay for queued content

We, on the Russian server, have a queue of 360+ days / it was 440+ /. And we have had a rate of 1000 for many years. And somehow we play. :)
oh dear xD
In 2019, 1000 zen in 8/10 days.... enjoy what cryptic did!

PlayStation was around 3 months wait last time I checked.
good to know, thx

the devs never did anything on xbox. There are just more players there willing to a buy AD with Zen

mmmmmmhhh it's not really false, it's probably even what you're saying which is true.@@Aragon-
It takes around 12-15 months on Russian server to exchange AD to Zen. I would better donate rather than wait 1 year to get 500-1000 zen 😅
Yikes

What class do you play?

misleading title .... that's rly low even from you
you mentioned instantly in ur title
or get diamonds instantly! thats separate from the zen part. How else do I express that you can get Diamonds straight away with exchanging your Zen??

20 mil what?@@GastNdorf
@@T2RIllusion Backlog
I get 5k at a time usually and it takes about 3 months on PSN
I meant Month in wait time not millions@@GastNdorf
Dont sell zen like this, it is better to buy items for zen and then sell it on ah for astrals.
it you are patient, yes
Not on PlayStation. You get more AD for your zen if you use the exchange.
@@jasonbentel3924 what is rate on PS? It is 750 on PC

Thats the reason its almost a year on PC
