    Lots of top server shads have been selling a lot of their perf, and near perf gear for a few weeks now, smegaing quite a bit at times even

    In the latest staff blog, an unnamed group of new balancers are working on the class balance issues. We don't know who they are, but it sounds like an unofficial group interning with gm's.

    I'm not accusing any one person of anything, and this sounds very dramatic, but it should be considered that the impact on a shads nerf, if that is the case, would be massive to the economy, not just in gear and liquidity, but bossing and market uncertainty, as all-shad HT has been clutching and dominating much of the bossing market for a long time.

    All I'm saying is: if there is any logs or evidence of gms or this unofficial team letting this info out for current players to come out on top of the nerf financially, it should be investigated and the trades rolled back. We've had a lot of sketchy GM abuse many times before

    (Unrelated, I have a 200 shad, and I've been of the opinion they've been over-tuned and op for too long now)

    you're way over your head into the conspiracy theories.

    There is no unnamed group of new balancers, there is an addition to the staff team that's announced as a balancer here: https://royals.ms/forum/threads/staff-changes.239825/

    We are not communicating about any upcoming changes and benefitting from making any sort of trades or anything like that. The posts you're seeing are just players being speculative on changes like the one recently mentioned by Matt on the forum here: https://royals.ms/forum/threads/meso-explosion.189416/#post-1492264

    Should be obvious, but anyone on the staff team, whether game balancer or otherwise, are not allowed to use insider knowledge for the benefit of themselves or others. Admins monitor the actions of staff members as best we can, and will take action if abuse is found. If a user believes a staff member to have been part of any abuse, we encourage them to post an Abuse Report with any evidence and details.

    I don't really find it too surprising with everyone saying "nerf shads" for the past year, as well as the announcement of Pink Bean and other content, that there wouldn't be some sort of market fluctuations.

    nvm, ninja'd.

    Edit:

    Please read and follow the instructions: https://royals.ms/forum/threads/clarification-on-positive-helpful-criticism.190035/
