<DIV> <DIV>Since SOE has choices of 'adjusting' things, or 'removing' (or adding) them... When I see something 'adjusted', then I have to figure that there's a reason for it. So when I saw that: </DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr> <DIV> - Removed lower level refined and interim products that tradeskill merchants were selling. Bread, pasta, and a packet of spices will still be sold because these items are used through every level range.</DIV></BLOCKQUOTE> <DIV>... I started looking at recipes. Given that the reason stated is 'because these items are used through every level range', I had to presume that SOE had a reason for removing Dough (which is also used through every level range), and putting in Bread instead. Since the cost of Bread is being reduced to 1/5 of its previous value and Dough (from which Bread is made!) is being raised to 16 times what it was before, (Dough is currently 1c on the merchant, and Bread has to be made (11c with current ingredients - with the new system Dough will cost 16c to make and Bread will be merchant-sold at 2c), I have to presume that there must be a reason.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> After looking at the recipes which use the two ingredients, all I can figure is that there must be too much Pie in the world, and not enough Sandwiches.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> However, please note that you can still make Cake fairly cheaply! So for those who complain about the rising costs of Pie, I say, "Let them eat Cake!"</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV></DIV>
