Gold output is HUGELY increased... I found 2 Legendaries within 25 minutes of logging in. RNG is RNG though and it will have hot streaks and cold streaks.

More gold = inflationary. More items = deflationary. This means prices for items should stay roughly the same.

However, more likely what will happen is that items we used to think were pretty good will be considered "junk" and probably won't sell at all. Items we used to think were really good will drop in price and end up at the same price we use to pay for items we considered "pretty good." Meanwhile, the new really really good stuff will go for hundreds of millions.

This is fine though. True, if everyone finds good stuff, then that good stuff won't be valued highly. However, people can live with the satisfaction of finding their own stuff and not regarding rare drops as extra large gold piles that will contribute to their next marginal upgrade.

And I feel it's how it should be. The truly valued min/max stuff is expensive while everything else is very affordable like in D2.

If the economy collapses, I won't shed a tier... it was dead to me when bots ran rampant anyways. If gold gets devalued to the point of worthlessness, then maybe those bots will find somewhere else to go.
