People have to realize that Classic has to compete with servers like Era, not in players, but that Stefan and Co. expect them to make a profit.

Staff tries their hardest to give players decent content with minimal cost, and to keep what players do pay for mostly cosmetic. We don't want players to have to buy stronger swords, or pay out the ass for the newest item. So while Era sells a gun for 100k, remember that is the same amount of gralats on Classic. The only difference that can be made is that Era and Classic have different jobs, and how much these jobs offer. As far as gralat packs go, compare the prices of things on Classic to Era... now think about why Stefan wouldn't be happy that Classic doesn't make as much as Era does.

Players can rage over the price of 2player mounts, but it's either a huge price on a few items that show up like those, or increase everything drastically.
