Trading currency

I think that in d3 they should have another unique item that we base our rare items on. Like in d2 we all valued our stuff based on the stone of jordan. I think that in d3 there should be a similar item that is the new trading currency.

ya think its possible that Gold might actually be worthy as currency?

It will prolly start of low like chipped gems or so but will grow when people will find more valuable stuff I guess

What realm do you play on? The SoJ only appears as a useful fixed unit on NL in my opinion, runes are the currency on the Ladder.. It's far too early to discuss what could be a fixed unit of currency in DIII, as we haven't seen any real gear. I am sure, however, that something will emerge to fill the gap shortly after the game is released.

Why not gold? Make something that everyone needs VERY RARE or purchasable from vendors. that way everyone needs gold.

Sorry luke i forgot too mention that I only played classic. The soj was the main currency then because we didn't have runes or anything.

Because basing the currency on one of the most rare items in the game is a fantastic idea?

Perhaps they can bring back the duping of said extremely rare item and the economy can once again flourish!

Gold should not drop in bits and pieces that pple don't really pick up anyway. It should be quantized in item form, and become just another item in the drop table but in various denominations, e.g. 100G 500G and things like 50000G in the higher difficulties.

Runes will work....provided that they do something about the duping

In the demo video a specific bag falls as an item the player can pick up, maybe if gold was the currency we could trade these bags filled with a certain number as you said, to be the official currency
