It's the opposite, I am glad that you realized it's a necessity and call it purposely "luxurious". I hope you're aware that you're contradicting yourself whenever you write both at the same time. - constructive advice.People like myself will still have to work their asses for it, because I don't posses 35 chars, I don't regularly attend Ares event or any other ST rewarding event. With two chars it's pretty hard. You do the math with Asian style farming level and ignore people from my rank which posses two active chars and play them regularly but don't get every Saturday a free cube necklace and 20-30 ET's daily. For those who enjoy farming, this additional way won't prevent them from doing so. In fact, we got R8r which consumes more money than engraves and people won't stop donating or farming, so the server will remain profitable. And the market will be balanced, it went from max. 4,000 EC items to 150,000 EC items which is ridiculous. I agree on making clean ornaments much more expensive and reduce the price of engraved ones.
You don't seem to realise that ever since obtaining Damascene Ores was made easier by exchanging ST + ET for it, nobody (except REALLY desperate people like me sometimes) exchange pure ec for Damas. Comparing 1.5 years ago when everyone had to trade ECs for damas therefore there was less EC on the market => prices were loser, to now, where nobody uses EC to exchange for Damas anymore => more EC on the market => prices grow. It's obvious that an item will cost 40k ec. Compare the times when prices were cheaper and how hard was to get EC to now, when it's alot easier and obviously it makes the prices grow. There's no need to implement another way of engraving, however reducing its cost by like 10-15 ST like Ruin ( mail me ec) said, isn't a bad idea.
-1, I get what you mean getting the supplies is difficult cause most people dun got time to do em. However theres morai where if you got like what? 200 alts like some people do, in 3 weeks they got 200 engraves for neck/belt. This **** isn't meant to be made easier, making it 50 ancient emblems is literally nothing much, people can just buy good engraves with that but getting like 9k emblems or something. You also got BH where every 2 days = 60 ST for engraves, NW where you might get 4-5 engraves for neck/belt given you have a good nation which is literally frost right now. And besides engraves are like a side project once you're done with your r8r. Now, where you mean Event tokens, that isn't half bad idea considering we can conver them into ST and ofc they aint tradeable. Can't farm em, and some people got em lying around. There are some points which are reasonable, but some aren't, only thing i would +1 to is the ET for engraves, not WWI/Cogs/Ancient Emblems, cause all that **** is buyable and ruins the point of working on the engraves by taking your time and farming the ST for it, cause there are people that got like 500+ of those things. ET is different cause that **** is stable.I'm not good with economy on epic mainly cause i dun buy or sell stuff often, so idk if my opinion matters much. I'm just basing this off of the effort a person puts into getting the engraves.
Event tokens can be farmed in morai, so take the example of 200 alts for morai, that's 200 belt/neck Engraves per week? Not mentioning if you were to stack rewards for 3 week. 200 x (3x(1 event token + 20 supply tokens)) => 600 event tokens and 12000 supply tokens... That's in 3 weeks, you can do 600 engraves with tokens and 200 with supplyJust think about that and let it sink in
-1, I dont think thats giving anything good to server I agreed with swane that ppls will get borred and also leave . But id suggest to use like r8 methods keep and take new( old stats ).
yes, please.Id suggest beeing able to engrave with 100-130 obc per roll.You still have to farm it but you can do whenever + more active ns.Edit: actually... id make it more like 200-250 obc per roll.
