I'm guessing these prices are just placeholders. SE doesn't expect anyone to pay these prices, they're just showing us the system they are trying to implement, then in the future it will be evaluated and changed to include realistic prices. Hopefully I'm not wrong.

I'm hoping too, but it's totally believable that SE would implement the system as it is

I mean it took 100 merits to even unlock the system

Traded 99 Ancient Beastcoins, I can now buy the Relic +1 crafting materials for 500 merits apiece.

This system has potential, granted no one is going to be lining up to buy Hofuds and Chameleon Yarns for 500 merits each, but in the long run, and for many already, merits are basically useless as is. Might as well dump them to the Goblin in that case.

Would be nice if eventually we can buy REM items with them, if it was a reasonable trade off.

A full 75 merits for say 75 Alexandrites may be too generous of a trade-off in SE's eyes, but it's pretty close to reasonable in terms of time/reward, and probably less efficient than farming Salvage, but infinitely more spammable.

Something less, like 5 merits for an Alexandrite seems barely worth it though.

Those numbers are just as silly though. I'm not certain if you've had a CP/Silt party in Reisenjima yet, but it's pretty crazy, specially if you're AoEing. Had a group last night with a Blu, Bst, Sch, Cor, Geo and a leeching Mnk. Capping out 60 merits in under 10 minutes was extremely easy. With how things are set up, it's not that time consuming to warp to the goblin, dump all of your merits, and get right back to killing in under a minute. Not that this justifies the price for the current (mostly useless) offerings from the goblin.

Trading in the second "Limbus Clomper" request of 198 Ancient Beastcoins adds the option to purchase the 5 pieces of Arch-Omega and Arch-Ultima for 5,000 merits each.

I'm assuming that each "goodness" tier caps at 2?

That's fair. I was really think of it more as merit dumping being an afterthought to getting JPs, a bonus, and not a targeted activity. Perhaps a daily limit on currency would be in order, if there's no reasonable balance that allows it to be uncapped, because who is going to care about dumping merits if it's like 1 Alexandrite for 100 merit points?

300 Alexandrites per day for 300 merits, reasonable? Would still take a while to reach the daily limit, etc...

The empyrean equivalent would be 15 HMP daily for 300 merits.

Not that they're doing any of this, but it would be a nice thing to do, especially for Empyrean weapons, which are just awful to upgrade past 90.

Trading 12 Abdhaljs's Honor opened "Legion clomper goodness" which has Shara's fists: 500 pts and Kawasemi: 500 pts.
Next tier costs 24 Abdhaljs's Honor.

All of the items are at https://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Emporox

I'm more interested at the moment at what happens after you get the malformed KI from the other goblin and what the requirements are.

If Kirin and AV2 end up on that list, whole buncha people aren't going to be making this weapon until they have enough silt for brews.

Ftfy. Many people don't even have the opportunity unless they can ever find a solid LS that would be willing to sell them the clear, which will get harder and harder to come across as time goes by.

Finished Zitah myself now. Was funny when Pazuzu popped after killing Belladonna and got killed, too. Also had wrathhare pop once which we also killed Duo... sadly it died to Helix unclaimed.

To me this requirement doesn't seem that bad. Its basically, "Hey! Go do some content with friends!" The only annoying one looks like warder of courage which if someone wanted it they could probably pay a group for a clear. I doubt clears would be over 100M since we don't know what the next step is. Considering ergons are still at the 300M-500M price range thats not so bad. ALso like someone else said, brews are now a thing and it may lower in price once you kill the final boss of Reisanjima ( i don't think anyone has killed this yet). Furthermore the gear from Rasenjima blows most things out the water, so everyone should be getting a power spike soon which should make kirin and warder easier.

Do not underestimate Warder of Courage. These people have been at it quite a bit only to get fd by Benediction over and over:

Eh, it seems like an incredibly poor decision for them to make to me. While we don't know for sure how game population and such will be going into next year and beyond, the much safer bet would have been to keep requirements more moderate. This is taking a potential hook to maintain subscriptions and putting it behind a wall that (thus far) very few will be able to get past.

First to needing the silt to brew wins a shiny new aeonic, that or having to clear all reisien NMs first.

Well, WoC won't be much of an issue with someone semi-competent with
a brew.

Could also rack up a bunch of gil from people who'll leech your brew clear. Haven't touched recent content, just how long would it take to acquire the necessary silt for a brew?
