Promo Idea

  1. Ok. First I want to say, this is not a complaint about the last promo.

    I was reading forums about the moth promo and there were a lot of ppl complaining about the item drops, enchant fails, bfe, etc. Ppl will always complain, but I thought of an idea that may make the next promo more marketable and leave less room for anyone to complain or be upset. I normally don't do forums, so I will do my best on this to be clear and concise.

    What if on the next promo we competed ebs/war/achievements to earn some sort of special currency (similar to moths and fangs)? And then we could use that currency to purchase special promo items, to include different armor, weapons, and other permanent equipment from the marketplace. The cost of these items would vary based on overall stats, but also the level of enchantment it starts with (levels 1, 5, 10, etc). This would allow players to choose what they wanted to use their currency on and allow them the ability to customize their accounts to suit their playing styles and builds. Basically mirroring the system you have built for the mith/rancor equipment but with promo currency instead of mithril. Obviously you could stagger the stats on this equipment to be lower than the rancor set to keep from alienating those who have worked hard to earn it.

    I for one was excited to take part of the moth promo (needed a new weapon), but would have worked harder and spent more money if I knew I would be able to choose specific items my account has been lacking and customize my build to my liking. Also, this gives all involved more options to what to use this currency on, so there will be less reason for any to feel that they wasted time/money on some mystery item that they may not even need.

    Thoughts?
     
  2. Support. Excess promo currency would then be carried over from one promotion to another. Though i like the existing promo LB aspect and would hate to lose that even tho i never feature on it. Kuzmich rules that 
     
  3. A good idea. Then players could be frustrated with their own poor decisions regarding the equipment instead of blaming the devs. I look forward to more input.
     
  4. Support (silph said something!!)
     
  5. maybe combine the two systems a certain level gets health crystals horns and seals and you can trade in for équipement
     
  6. Support good idea.
     
  7. Yes Silph. It opens up more possibilities for players and devs. Instead of having a new promo item every time, they can have a set we can work towards.
    And they can still award top lb seekers and give xtals/seal to for earning a certain amount.
     
  8. Support great idea!
     
  9. excellent idea, would give newbies the chance to earn better quality equipment, and experienced players the chance to ignore kit good less than they have already. Supported
     
  10. I definitely support this, I would love this idea of saving up special currency for good items
     
  11. Sounds good to me, perhaps make a temporary promo store so everyone can see the items and prices.
    If there's 4-5 different items people can chose which ever item they might be missing or better that what they already have.
    Appreciate the promos, they are free after all so can't really complain, but some choice would be nice also 
     
  12. Exactly void. Thx for the support.
     
  13. Being able to customize rewards is a great idea. The game now has many facets. Players have various styles and goals. If we could pick our equipment I think others might be more motivated. I know once I hit a certain moth bracket I gave up because I would never make the next one and didn't care much for the next weapon anyway. Good idea lil 
