Said it before but this Game lose like 50% of it "Content" when you do this.
This Game circles around "Events" with Drop rate or Brake rate ...
A Drop Event makes the Player aware that "something" happen and it`s always followed and "completed" with a Blacksmith "Event"
You rarely see one without the other.
This is S2 System ,if you take even 1 Part away - the whole Circle Brakes apart.
And let`s be honest here... even if we all hate it and it`s the Mother of all the "Problems" we see later on in the Game, it creates excitement for the new Player.
-
We made a lot Suggestions to balance this P2W System out. But if that means they lose Money from the new Player... than its a "no go" too.
This leave nearly no Place for "Balance Topic`s" and so you could say we don`t need to talk about it anymore .
-
But there are Gaps. Like in every other F2P Games. (The Starter Zones)
Every Game is anxious to keep them mostly free of the P2W Aspect, they don`t want to scare away there new Player.
For Requiem this is equivalent to:
Simple, Supernus and the Eximius - Grade "Content"
This is our Free-2-Play Zone. It`s mostly untouched for now.
The biggest unfixed Problem here are the PB System and the Enchant System it`s the back-door to make even here more Money.
(because you can enchant a "Carus Grade Enchant" into a "Simple" Weapon,Armor or Accessory)
But hey there are so many flaws in this Game...we don`t have to be so picky.
Everything above (Rare,Carus and Maximus) belongs to the Pay-to-Win Content. So here we will see our Future "Content" and the Focus from the Dev`s.
-
Anyway lets talk about the free Chances...
I see em at the first Battlefield Brackets. (1-24,25-49 and 50-69)
Or at the TBF Strongest Rounds.
Here we need better impulse and stimulations.
One Way could be an Event special for only those Brackets.
During that Time the Contribution Score could be tripled , or you monopolize the Possession Beast Armor (or other Drops)
to the lower FoC BF Rewards. Let`s say the First Part of the Armor you only get from the 1-24 FoC the next Part from the 25-49 and so on.
So every Player had to join those BF for there PB Armor. Its just an example.
The Chances for Players who loves to have a fair challenge or a simply more balanced Game lay on the starter Maps.
Sadly most Player seek for in Game advantages or anything to boost there E-Peen Ego.
Oh and did i say there is no Exp. Stop Item yet?
So sorry for the detour but that would mean we can`t stop our "old" System until they have replaced it with real Content like
Housing or Professions for example but hey that forbids the Code right?!
And thats the final Answer for now, Requiem only has the Blacksmith System. And its getting bigger and bigger...
