Shattered Kingdoms

After screwing off with some random disposable alts in several high-price kingdoms, I've observed that the newbie store prices are pretty ridiculously high. Over one platinum for a dagger in krychire? Uh, okay, remind me where the LEAVE button is, please. Admittedly, there are chests full of stuff, but the weapons are wooden and there are no one-handed swords. Same goes for zakami grounds. The maces there are 6-10 gold, which, by the way, is really high for a newbie. Shouldn't the newbie grounds be less affected by economics than the other areas? I mean, I can understand how they should be at least little tweaked up and down, but could we set a price limit on this stuff, pleez?

Newbie grounds should be unaffected by the economy and the prices should all be standardized for each newbie ground. 6gold for a dagger is insane for a newb. It forces them to choose between armor or weapon and in the newbie grounds it could cause disaster for them. ie . . .they either keep getting stunned(unless you are a griffon) because of no armor, or it takes all day just to kill a NPC, because the starting daggers you get are worse than bad.

Prices are higher but gold drops in the kingdom are also above normal.
