✪ Summary:

This suggestion is being pushed along with this one to improve cub trade-ins.

When the Gorilla Enclave was first implemented, it was new and it was exciting! Shiny and neat! The dev team faced a question, I imagine. "What do we include as prizes?" Back in these early days of the Enclave first being open, it was stuffed with all manner of items that you can find across Lioden. Perhaps the most tempting was the Applicators and Raffle Backgrounds. But with the addition of more and more Enclave exclusive items, the rest of the things in there not only seem superfluous, but also ... over priced?

Seriously, did this get glossed over? Let's do a breakdown.

In the Enclave, you can buy every single Pose on Lioden.

You can also buy Random Marking Applicators (henceforth "RMA").

But how does 120 Monkey Teeth compare to the value of a GB?

Well let's take a look at the next lowest item, Eye Applicators. Here's the Nebula Eyes Applicator.

Okay so what's the current (at the time of posting this) going price?

Oh... that's a bit more expensive than 1 Gold Beetle... Okay how about the Zoisite Eyes Applicator?

So we've come to establish that some things in the Enclave are a *bit* overpriced (a lot overpriced, actually). Why is this a concern? Well, new players, mostly. New players often do not know the value of items, and might forget that Oasis offers a fairly decent selection. A player coming in here might see that they can get a pose for their lioness for 120 MT and think that's great!! ... Until they finally do, and realize they have wasted WEEKS of effort on something they could have very easily gotten for very, very little effort by comparison. What's more, it may potentially be upsetting to learn that they could have spent it on an item worth far more and that chance is now lost, instead having to do all of that work over again.

The prices of these items need to be severely adjusted. Here's some others that are overpriced.

Literally nobody wants Human Liver if your name isn't Hannibal Lecter. The 60 MT vs 50 SB price on this one is probably the most offensive one out of the bunch. Ew!

✪ What I Am Proposing:

[+] A price overhaul of several items available in the Gorilla Enclave, or outright removing them from the list of available items.

I've supplied my thoughts on where a more appropriate price for each would be.

➤ Black Stallion: 50 MT
➤ Random Marking Applicator: 40 MT
➤ Poses: 25 MT
➤ Lion Meat: 100 MT
➤ Roasted Vulture: 50 MT
➤ Shamanic Stew: 50 MT
➤ Human Liver: 20 MT. The community considers it worth barely 200 SB at the time of this edit.

If you don't support, I'd like to know why. I appreciate constructive criticism over a simple "no".
