Mat Economy?

[DR.]

The only mats I can see that I'm not ok with is Heavy Cloth and Sturdy Wood... Both should be less or the same price as Hm.

Mat prices being this low only contribute to rich people, they can craft what they want for even cheaper now, while it is harder for new players or players that never looted to gather gold.

Wouldn't it be "rich" people that need gold to buy legendaries and "poor" people that need materials to craft what they want, though?

A. Trading cuz we all want it as a base item. 
B. Crafting. Need a gold sink mat itself. 
C. Buying mats with gold.

It's very hard to find someone selling mats that are looking for some item that this "poor" person has. Even if you are saying people should trade mats for mats... Well, that doesn't help with drop rates and when the other half does not want mats in return.

Most "rich" people are willing to wait for a gold offer or at least a better one.
