You're not gonna get any arguments against removing the tax, but we all know it's never going to happen and it's something we've worked with for years now
I'll give you guys a few. I'm not quite sure where OP is coming from in that removing the 10% fee would decrease inflation. I could be wrong on this, but I have to imagine the 10% auction house fee is the number 1 coin sink in the game. I'm sure more coins leave the economy due to the 10% fee than all coin pack sales combined. Even if that's not the case, the 10% fee removes a massive amount of coins from circulation each year. How would putting those back in the economy do anything but increases prices across the board? Auction house power users would still benefit by removing the 10% fee even factoring in the increased prices, but the barrier to entry for newer players would be raised.
