Today Joe Stramaglia at Broadsword has posted on the <a href=\"https:\/\/forums.swtor.com\/topic\/930929-731-credit-economy-initiative-update\/#comment-9775348\">official forums<\/a> with some new changes to this initiative coming in 7.3.1!<\/p>\n<div class=\"panel panel-info forums\"><div class=\"panel-body\">\n<p>Hello again everyone!<\/p>\n<p>First off, I want to thank everyone who participated in our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/forums.swtor.com\/topic\/929143-73-credit-economy-initiative-updates-and-the-gtn\/\" rel=\"\">last thread<\/a>! We still have much to iterate on and your feedback has been invaluable. Furthermore, it\u2019s with great pleasure to report that our economy is healing. I know it&#8217;s a bit of a bumpy road to get there, but if we keep driving down it we\u2019ll have a much more sustainable economy and a more approachable game.<\/p>\n<p>Some of our previously announced changes are still coming in a later patch, but we are making some additional changes in this update that we previously touched on.<\/p>\n<p>When 7.3.1 is live you will see the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Quick Travel costs will now take into account your player level. This is largely to help players at lower levels.\n<ul>\n<li>The maximum cost matches our current maximum around level 35.<\/li>\n<li>The minimum cost matches our current minimum around level 17.<\/li>\n<li>The cost per distance matches our current cost at level 80.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Trade and Mail fees are now driven off of the Galactic Trade Network Median Sales Data\n<ul>\n<li>This means that these will be based on the server and the specific sales on that server, this data already exists within the game so it&#8217;s not a clean slate.<\/li>\n<li>Select items have their fees removed (the previously changed consumable gameplay items and a list of over 3000 lower value items that were traded regularly on the GTN since 7.3). We may make continued adjustments here in the future.<\/li>\n<li>Items that have not been traded on the GTN may not have a fee until they have been traded for some time. \u00a0This enables the game to determine the appropriate fee value.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>The Galactic Trade Network Buyout Price Limit has been increased from 1,000,000,000 to 3,000,000,000.\n<ul>\n<li>This is to allow trade of higher value items.<\/li>\n<li>Additional changes to the GTN will come in future patches.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As always, I look forward to your feedback and the data from these changes. We will have more changes in the future.<\/p>\n<p>May the Force Serve You<br \/>\nJoe<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>7.3.1 is expected to launch<strong> late August\/early September.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Those of you keeping up with SWTOR&#8217;s Economy likely know all about the recent changes to trading and mailing that have imposed some big taxes on items to help drive&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":30437,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[66],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-30491","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30491","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=30491"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30491\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/30437"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=30491"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=30491"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=30491"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
