yeah they use google standard conversion rates i think. no regional differences like in some other (much bigger) games.
its a bit funny though.
here buying 10 times 10lvls is cheaper then buying 100lvls. so far for a discount on bulk purchases.

Its just like saying "Each and every player is bound to do PVP to play the game"
Does any NPC say that "U are gonna have to do pvp compulsorily to stay in the game!"? Do any quests require that the player must have done PVP in order to take the Quest?
So how is it a PVP game? So no its not a PVP game..
Yes PVP is a part of the game but that's not essential to play the game!! Just as Special skins are there in game but are absolutely not essential to play the game.
So any player doesn't want PVP is free to buy PVP protection and stay out of the PVP.
My only point is PVP protection buy should be a one time thing or a one yearly thing and affordable so that anyone can buy and enjoy his own game..
And yes rearrow is right in some countries even buying an item which cost €1 ie equivalent to a day wages.
pls don't mock them by giving such expressions in the post.

I also didn't bother adding: what about all the players that do not have a credit card, like me. OK, instantly, that means they don't buy anything so they are stuck being pray to the PvP players. And then they have to grind like the dickens to get back that quest item drop at bloated gold prices at Map 0.0. Sure part of the game but .... just saying.
Also if I did have a credit card there is a "tax" on using it for purchases out of country.
→ since I can't use links LostKnight wrote:Other recently adopted laws attest to this, such as a 35% levy on foreign credit card transactions
Also those credit cards used out of country are using the "official" exchange rate that costs even more. I did the calculations a couple of months back and found a pet would cost me. On the menu: Pet = $2.70 but for me over $5 because the 20% is added after the "official Exchange rate".
So I agree with death911: be careful when using "equivalent to" comparisons.
And a house! Forget it. Impossible!

@LK
your point is good and understandable but many players will find a way to abuse that somehow if PVP protection were to be free . i mean that they would just create multiple non pvp spam accounts to block heal or to just find some way to ruin the game for others.
so it should be a one time thing or yearly thing and affordable that players can make gold and buy that at start map for in game gold.
buying every week is ridiculous

I've played games (still active games) where you'd buy an IAP for 1 hour of PvP protection

@ death911
Which leads to the same argument:
they would just create multiple spam accounts, buy cheap pvp protection, and block heal or to just find some way to ruin the game for others.
Maybe a new tweak to coding (yes yes, I know more work for M and very likely NOT going to happen), but we're just talking here. The new code would be where non-clan players can NOT heal clan members at any time. And it's already in place that non-clan alts can block, and block with purchased pvp-protection too. Which could quite easily be a perm-jail offence for the alt, and on a second offence; for the second alt and the owner as well.
If you are in a clan, have the courage to fight with honour or pay the price: Perm Jail.

It wasn't when it was started, and when PvP was added, at some point the PvP Protection was added.
So No it's not a PvP game - if you "pay on a weekly bases"
@ rearrow: Levels:
10 x 10 lvls = $121.40
100 x 1 lvls = $120.02
So I guess it's where you live, and how Google does it's thing.
