Huh? Assuming I get what you're trying to say, I don't think adding an additional zero to the meso conversion or the coin cost would be a good idea. The point of a meso sink is to not only sink the meso from the super rich, but from as many people as possible. Make this thing too expensive and it shuts out everyone on the low/middle spectrum, along with the richest people probably not bothering with this.
Come to think of it, how did JMS tackle their inflation problem, anyways? I remember hearing about Neo Tokyo's equipment requiring like 500 mil to forge back when it was first released, but was it really that effective, JMSers?
I don't think that's effective as in MSEA we need 500m to forge a NT equipment as well (We still need to).
500m is not much for the richies anyway and the poors don't bother to forge them.
However, raising the price of magnifying glass last time was really effective.
NX/Meso rate drop from 17m/k to 11m/k in 2 weeks. This affects everyone in MSEA.
The rich guys cubes like mad everyday, using up few hundred million everyday just to buy magnifying glass.
And the middle range still able to buy magnifying glasses which is 1m+ each for advance and 4m+ each for premium to reveal the potentials of equips they found.
So yes, I'm with Alilatias.
