Finviuswe✭✭✭✭No, because I am in favour of a Gauntlet style game where everything is earned through work in-game. lol
I don't agree with 'buying your way to the top'.17 -

I've not seen such bravery!Playing your character the way your character should play is all that matters. Play as well as you can but never betray the character. Doing so would make playing an mmoRPG pointless.4 -

✭✭They can't do it yet because it's one of the only time sinks for higher level players swapping traits and getting new toons geared up right. Will happen sooner or later though. Blatant p2w but these morons will call it a convenience item and scream, "But there's a way to get them without money tooooooo guyssssssss!"1 -

✭It’s not necessary to put them in the CS. Do dungeons and spend an hour in Cyrodiil following a large group of players from keep to keep. You will get some crystals from rewards for the worthy mail and also at the end of the campaign for reaching level 1.
I’m not a PvP player at all and have no problem getting crystals this way.PS4 Pro NA2 -

Nope you're verging too close to P2W at that point. Skipping grind and getting BiS gear with real money... yeah that sounds like it's atleast one step in the door to being P2W."You must defeat me every time. I need defeat you only once"1 -

✭✭✭✭✭They are available in abundant quantities in pvp. They could increase the pve acquisition method slightly. If they want to add more IN GAME methods that's fine too. As soon as game aspects get to the store, the entire method of acquiring in game is set up to be adjusted to push people to the store. At that point, the store dictates the balance of in game methods and it's a lost cause. Just look at Welkynar motifs. They were made intentionally insanely grindy in game to push the store. I'd be looking to avoid this sort of situation at all costs.4 -

✭✭✭✭✭No because transmutation affects combat and transmute stones are only available from completing in-game content (dungeons, trials, and PvP). It would be too close to P2W if they put them in the store.Edited by MLGProPlayer on January 5, 2019 11:46PM2 -

It's not P2W at all. It doesn't give you any unfair strength advantage over other players.

I love the skill point idea. Pls do it ZOS.0 -
Ananoriel✭✭✭No, it would be pay to win. Otherwise you can just buy an item with a perfect trait and other people still have to grind for it.
I like it as it is, it feels more rewarding to earn the transmutation stones.1 -
grannas211✭✭✭✭✭
✭It’s not exactly pay to win because it’s not something you can’t get in game. But it’s borderline I guess because either grinding the gear you want or grinding the transmute stones to change the trait of your gear is like half this game. It’s like Pay to Save Lots of Time.
That being said, I’d buy them. Lol0 -

It feels like a boring time waste for me. You can grind em all you want and spend half of your life in this game, I can afford it and I don't want to earn them.grannas211 wrote: »It’s like Pay to Save Lots of Time.

Word.
I'd rather be able to own multiple retraited sets of use that I can mess around with in the time saved by buying my transmutes.
BTW, you can legally buy crown store items with gold. Win Win IMHO.Edited by Nyladreas on January 6, 2019 12:38AM0 -

✭No thanks. They just need to change it back to where rewards of the worthy gave crystals once per character each day instead of once per account each day. The only way to get consistent crystals multiple times a day is by running vMA or vDSA, which no one wants to slog through for the small amount they give. The least they can do is make it so vet trials give crystals at the end like vMA and vDSA do, since people would rather have fun in a trial.Xbox NA healer main

If you PvP enough during the day, you’ll start earning the random geodes that drop in the Rewards of the Worthy.
It’s RNG, sure, but 4 crystals in just one random geode is two runs in vDSA or vMA.
Sometimes those random geodes have 20-25 stones in them.

Latios✭✭✭✭✭Nope, as it would give payers a very significant combat advantage over players that have to grind for the crystals or the right trait items.
As of now, crown store does not affect the game’s combat in any significant way(the poisons/potions/food are very easy to obtain and are better than the crown store ones). It should remain that way.The Eon Pokémon.0 -

4 crystals is one run of vMA or vDSA, which is still an hour of boredom. And the rewards of the worthy only give you a geode once every day, with subsequent boxes only giving gear. They used to give 1 geode per character per day, so you could open the rewards on 8 characters and get 8 geodes. And the crystal amount is heavily weighted towards the lowest amount so even though you can get a max of 25, you'll usually only get 4.Xbox NA healer main

FilteredRiddle✭✭✭✭Hell no.
Thus far, the Crowns store has been almost entirely cosmetic or “fun” stuff. The stuff you can “use” which you can buy in store, you can purchase or craft better versions in-game for much easier; the only reason to utilize the Crown versions is in very temporary emergencies of speed and convenience (e.g potions, food, repair kits, etc). Allowing people to consistently re-trait their gear for real money would be a large shift towards the pay-to-win category and I’m completely against that. Earn the correct trait gear in-game, the right away, either through farming the gear or purchasing what you can with in-game gold.Xbox One NA
