For sure, you can accumulate vast amount of wealth for doing nothing, but you'd be able to accumulate wealth so much quicker if you work for it. In ~2.5months of playing on this server from scratch, with relatively minimum help from friends/guildies, I made somewhere between 8-10b, which is the amount of wealth one would obtain by solely selling AP resets/gaching in a year (e.g., 365days* 8knx/day * 1APreset/3.1knx * 9m/APreset = ~8.5b). Personally, I find what I'm doing rewarding, as I'm trying to achieve certain goals (e.g., lv200; making a 30khp hero).
'' I didn't suggest removing, I suggested removing buying them with NX. If removing them were the only option, i wouldnt suggest this, but there are basically limitless creative ways to distribute them that isn't completely for free. Or could do both, just make gach tickets cost more NX, say twice as much, and then add ingame option of acquiring them through, quests/bosses/whatever. I don't think I should be able to gach 105 tickets every 9 days.
There is no way to change how gacha works without giving "veteran players" (God I hate that term) an enormous advantage.
Kinda new to royals but I think a fix could be to add the expiration back to NX items, and maybe even lowering the expiration time. I was pretty surprised that nothing ever expired and we just got free NX daily. After you get a shop, pet, and some clothes, you're pretty much set. Also how the hell do you guys make so much money, is it really just gach?
In the new source which should be coming in the next few months - we will have merchants, regular stores and pets expiring as an additional NX sink. We have not had expiring items yet currently as it has not been coded.
Both types as far as I'm aware. So donor and regular pets will require the user to purchase the water of life with NX and do the quest to bring the doll back to life. I guess it would be a very small advantage to donors if it wasn't that way.
Wouldn't regular stores cause some lag? Because there will be plenty of people logged in that would wouldn't normally be.
The new source has been stress tested with over 50,000 idle characters and there wasn't even a dent made to the servers cpu usage due to how well the source code is coded. So there should not be any lag, no.
That's true. I'd like to see some other things to purchase other than 35 gachapon tickets and AP resets though (when you've already bought pet and nx clothes).
Not a good idea, especially with something as sensitive as the economy of the game. Keep it as it is, too sudden of a change does not last well in the long term.
