I finally spent a great deal of time hunting in hell, which, now currently as of this writing has a 2.5% tax rate! This is unprecedented! It has got to be the lowest rate anywhere in Entropia for mining and hunting.
I chatted with Neverdie and he said he wants to raise the taxes back to 5% at some point. I don't know when or if it will happen, but if you want to see taxes remain low in Hell, now is the chance to show him that having a low tax rate works!
