So when you enter the instance you are standing by the way shrine. The Arena is straight ahead and there is another building off to the right.

Currently, this building just has random gear you can take.
My proposal is to turn it into the "Maelstrom Store"

At this store, players will be able to buy weapons/gear of their choice.
It could work similar to the Imperial City dungeons, where you earn a special currency for defeating the bosses.

You will still have to complete the arena to earn enough currency so it doesn't defeat the purpose. It will allow for players to have a choice while still "earning" it.

What do you think?

    Is it not enough to have 100% weapon droprate? A token system has been suggested since the arena was on PTS. If they haven't done it by now, I doubt they'll ever do it.

    You could get 10 infused swords in a row. Would this hurt you or anyone else if players were adequately rewarded for their effort?

    Plus, maybe some wants to buy the armor with a specific trait. They could.

    I know the token system has been asked for and this is talking about turning that vacant building into a store.

    I am strongly against any token system or currency system to buy maelstrom weapons. I vote HELL NO.

    Do you mind explaining why?

    I am against buying them for gold but for a token/trophy?
    You would still have to earn them to use them.

    If this was in place I would actually run vma, as it sits I have no desire to farm 200+ hours for what I find tedious solo content in an mmo. Just to not get a precise or sharpened inferno staff, going to try again with the 100% drop, but we will see.

    I believe a majority of people feel as you do. I know I have read many post calling for a different system.

    RNG in 4 man content still stinks but it is easy to run a dungeon multiple times a day.
    Not so much for Maelstrom or the average player.

    Let people choose the gear they worked so hard to get.
