People use them to purchase plat, then the plat seller resells them generally. Not sure how all the dynamics end up working, but almost all Kronos end up going towards subs or currency purchases.
So I imagine these guys that are selling bulk Krono for 10 dollars a pop are Plat sellers that are willing to take a hit in order to sell quicker? They use their plat to buy Krono from players and sell the Krono for RL money at a major discount. That's all I can come up with.
Exactly, Someone buys a krono from the market to sell for plat. 2 types of people buy them, the first is individuals who have a bunch of plat and want to save themselves the membership fee. They buy it for plat and consume it for the 30 days of game time. This is the intended lifecycle of a krono.
I think Bristlebane is the busiest server or at least has the most raiding going on, based on progress.
Wow..no words can explain how fail that is. I mean I watched that Feb. podcast, and didn't they specifically say that they made some changes to some missions because it was a bad thing when players were herded to a small number of zones and that they wanted to encourage people do do more diverse things? and then they do that?
The only problem with that line of thinking is that everyone still did HA's in their own private instances, in the older expansion, to level to 105(group players, raiders play an entirely different game). If they wanted AAs then they just kept running them. Powerlevel? Back to Gribble for more HAs in your private instance. Swarming is already dead so no real danger of much of that going on. After that then yeah, get your mage and roll through the progression quests and ignore rares who's loot does shit all for anyone anyway especially if you raid. We'll get any loot we need from instanced missions and instanced HAs. So the zones are still empty save for the guy 3 botting his way through progression killing trash 10 million HPS at a time while everyone else just quits since developer spite is not much of an incentive to play.
Dumbest thing they ever did. Killed the game for me. Used to go back and pay for 6 accounts for 3 or 4 months a year, but now every time I think about going back I remember that change (and the Head Shot etc nerf) and lose all interest.
