Come all ye haters

I don't play the market, but I don't really get the market hate. I know I couldmake tens of millions a day doing whatever, but I don't want to. It feels like a job, and that's not what I play this game for. I get my money, buy what I want if I can afford it at whatever price I need to to get it then, unless it's just ridiculous. I'm not bothered by not having an ultra-purple with Numina's and LotGs everywhere. It'd be nice, and one of my characters did get drop-lucky enough, but it's not nearly worth it for me.

By the time my characters hit 50, I've usually got enough to buy them nice effective sets. Not the best, but probably 80% of performance at the cost of one decent purple recipe.

Sometimes the high prices of things bug me, but not so much I'm going to complain about it. If people really want that one recipe that much, fine. I lose nothing, I probably wasn't going to ever see one drop naturally, so not gettin one artifically is the same deal. The only things that get to me are salvage shenanigans, because it's an embuggerance to spend so much time buying recipes only to not be able to craft them. I'd like to be able to buy specific ocmmon salvage with tickets.

Uber: rolling six times on average (89% of getting it after 12 rolls) to get a piece of common salvage isn't so bad, is it? I hardly ever need "only one item of salvage", but I probably build in much greater volume than you do.

Mathematically, it's not bad. The thing is, having to do it is a nuisance. Time wasted trying to get X pieces of Y and Z is less time I can spend actually having fun. I don't think specific-purchase common salvage would have any real impact on the market other than making price gouging less effective. There'd be less incidental salvage sold, but when you have the capacity to take any specific salvage you want, there's no real impact to that change.
