Market: markets currently have two taxes, transaction's tax, applied for sold items, and broker's fee for non immediate orders, which are set at 1.5% and 1% respectively. To create an environment more competitive for Citadels, we plan on increasing the transaction tax to 2.5% and the broker's fee to 5-6%. Players trading in citadels will still receive the transaction tax, but the broker's fee will be at the complete discretion of the owner. To avoid confusion for the owner, the broker relations skill will not affect player set broker's fee in Citadels.


But on one of the support pages it states that the Transaction Tax has remained at 1.0% for Accounting Level 5 and that is confirmed by my characters who can all still get 1.00% Transaction Tax in NPC stations and Citadels.


The following graph that you cite is compelling:Top sinks and faucets over time though recall that in February / March / April the Transaction Tax divided by Trade was still 1.00%, as expected. Since then, on this graph, there has been not notable shift in the Transaction Tax line through the summer and autumn or any sort of step that would indicate a sudden change in the Transaction Tax rate.

Also, surely Trade by now would be back or close to February levels? On your data it is still about 39% below. However, if we assume the Transaction Tax rate is actually 1.00% of Trade (because the main traders have Accounting Level 5) then the actual Trade is at the same level as February.



Sorry for the confusion. Transaction tax used to be 1.5% before skills, 0.75% at max skills, but is now 2% (1% at max skills). Patch notes

What the hell is going on in Tash-Murkon?

I haven't been out there in a while, but isn't that supposed to be a low-population, barren wasteland?

Have you calculated the tax rate to before Feb 2016 as well? Is it a stable 0.99-1.00% for past years too? It's kind of weird that it's 1.00% back then, since the change to that tax level only happened on Apr 27 according to the patch notes. The immediate jump in May is suspiciously close to 1.33 i.e. 1.00/0.75, the ratio between the old tax rate and the new. The continuous rise in the tax rate since then is weird, though.

No, unfortunately not - I don't think I have the data for that.

People celebrating the ascension of Empress Catiz Tash-Murkon I to the imperial throne?

or.... just people noticing that Tash-Money is a bangin' region and should be more appreciated? :)
