On Xbox, before the Radiance battlepass, Onamoris were 15,000 coins and Millers were 3,500 coins. Now, Onamoris are 5,000 coins and Millers are 900 coins. I’m currently 1 extra Onamori and 3 extra Millers deep in the investment and thinking about investing in much more. Millers are a huge hit and new players always want a fused set. Onamoris are essential, but they don’t need to be fused and you only need one of them. Everyone who really wants an Onamori probably has one.
The trouble is, there are many veteran players who see things the same way I do and are investing deep on Millers. I’m worried that what seems like a good thing could flood the market with cheap Millers for months.
The only way to fix this and ensure profits would be for veteran Xbox players to form an Onamori/Miller cartel and set buy prices for both. That is, no cartel member can sell a Miller below 2,000 coins, and no cartel member should be alllowed to sell an Onamori below 8,000 coins.
The problem with forming a Crossout cartel is that there isn’t any way to enforce rules among members and there is too much of a supply to realistically monopolize the market. After the battlepass is over, cartel members would have to be committed to buying all the cheap Millers and Onamoris off the market. This is a huge investment and may not pay off for many months.
