Liste de vérification de l'évaluation des animaux de compagnie : comment évaluer vos animaux de compagnie de manière équitable

Why Accurate Valuation Matters

Nothing tanks a thriving in-game marketplace faster than skewed prices. Overprice and your listings rot; underprice and you drain personal profit while devaluing the pet economy. A structured, transparent appraisal process protects both sides of a trade, keeps demand balanced, and discourages price-gouging "shark" culture.

1 | The Core Equation

Fair Price = (Base Rarity × Scarcity Modifier) + (Utility Score × Demand Modifier)

Base Rarity — dev-assigned tier (Common, Rare, Epic, Legendary, Mythic)
Scarcity Modifier — supply driver: spawn rate, event window, crafting difficulty
Utility Score — how powerful or convenient the pet's abilities are
Demand Modifier — social hype, quest requirements, leaderboard meta

2 | Step-by-Step Checklist

2.1 | Confirm Authentic Tier

Open pet details → check color-code matches the claimed rarity.
Cross-reference with official wiki or last patch notes → devs occasionally bump tiers.
Red flag: mismatched color vs. tier claim — often a renamed dupe.

2.2 | Quantify Scarcity

Scarcity Factor	Multiplier	How to Verify
Unlimited vendor	× 1.0	Check shop stock & refresh
Daily cap vendor	× 1.2	Vendor shows "X/5 left"
Biome spawn (10% / hr)	× 1.5	Test spawn times
Event-only spawn	× 2.0	Patch notes or countdown
Mutation 15% success	× 2.5	Lab UI odds
Mutation < 5% success	× 3.5	Community spreadsheet

2.3 | Score Utility (0 – 10)

Passive Buff (0–3) — e.g., +Harvest Speed, +Pollination Radius
Active Ability (0–3) — e.g., auto-collect, damage aura
Synergy Bonus (0–2) — stacks multiplicatively with meta items
Quality-of-Life (0–2) — AFK convenience, inventory perks

Utility Score = sum; a Snail Collector might score 8, while a pure cosmetic Parrot scores 1.

2.4 | Gauge Demand Modifier

Quest-Linked +0.3 — required for daily or storyline goals.
Event Leaderboards +0.4 — top players exploit ability each season.
Streamer Hype +0.2 — trending on social media.
Power Creep –0.3 — nerfed or overshadowed by new pet.

2.5 | Apply the Formula

Example  (Epic Snail Collector)
Base Rarity      = 4 000 Gold (community baseline)
Scarcity Mod     = × 2.0       (event-only spawn)
Utility Score    = 8
Utility Value    = 8 × 200 = 1 600 Gold
Demand Modifier  = +0.4
Fair Price       = (4 000 × 2.0) + (1 600 × 1.4) ≈ 10 240 Gold

3 | Quick-Reference Price Ladder

Tier	Average Fair Range (Gold)	Comment
Common	200 – 500	Vendor parallels
Rare	1 200 – 2 500	Daily cap or easy biome
Epic	4 000 – 12 000	Event spawn or 15% mutation
Legendary	25 000 – 60 000	< 5% mutation or boss drop
Mythic	75 000 +	1 per server, soul-bound components

4 | Negotiation Cheat-Sheet

Open with midpoint of Fair Range (signals objectivity).
If buyer haggles –10%, counter at –5%.
Bundle discount? –8% for two pets, –15% for three.
Always verify authenticity before partial payments.
Use escrow bot for trades above 30 000 Gold or 1 000 Bee Coins.

5 | Red-Flag Checklist

Name change costs 50 G — scammers rename Commons "Epic Fox."
Screenshot "Owned = 1" when seller claims limited supply item.
Watch for price spikes ±50% in 24 h — likely duping exploit.
Steer clear of "trust trades," even if mutual friends vouch.

6 | Automated Tools to Track Fair Values

Tool	Feature
PetPulse API	Live average sales price by hour
TradeGuard bot	Escrow + authenticity scanner
Google Sheet "Fair-Price Ledger"	Community-crowdsourced baselines

7 | Sample Walk-Through

Seller lists "Silver Monkey" for 18 000 Gold.
Your formula gives Fair Price ≈ 14 500 Gold.
You counter 14 000 → seller drops to 16 000.
Apply bundle logic: add their "Raccoon Mount" (worth 4 000 G) for 18 000 total.
Total fair value now = 14 500 + 4 000 = 18 500 Gold. Deal locked.

Conclusion

Fair prices aren't gut feelings; they're math. Run each pet through this checklist, agree on data-driven values, and watch the marketplace transform from Wild West bartering to an efficient exchange where everyone walks away satisfied.
