Yeah... that would be awesome. It costs way too much for me tho, even regular packs are quite expensive to me. :V Living in a country which has poor currency exchange rates sucks for that. Unless you are a streamer and get donations in other, better currencies... lol.


I live in the midwest USA, so while I don't make as much as people on the coast (in general) my cost of living is much cheaper. I can afford to do things every once and a while and if I don't buy the larger supporter packs for a couple of leagues, then I can save up the cost to just buy the unique item, which I feel is a far better value at this point.

I'm honestly not sure what a supporter pack would require in the future from me in order to get me to REALLY want to purchase it. With the packs I've already purchased I have:

A) great weapon effect (exalted)
B) great armor sets (master\grandmaster)
C) various portal effects (champion) is pretty solid

and obviously because I have the amount of supporter packs I do I had a lot of points and pretty much all of the in store MTX's that I want.

So I think supporter packs, in order to really appeal to me require me to heavily consider the real world stuff, like the atlas cloth map for example or the ability to design something that gets added into the game, like the grandmaster, although that one was purchased because not only did it give me a way to add something into the game as "me or mine" but because the armor sets were solid.

take my advice and TRY, if you don't generate the same amount of money then fine, rewert back to the original cost, no problem right?

Actually, big problem. If you sell something for a low price, it devalues those items, meaning if you try to sell them for a higher price later, fewer people will want to buy them.
are you... telling me theres an actionhouse in this game? like... sell produkts in the game bough for real money and selling them away to other players? that makes no sense whatsoever...
I usually do not read popular posts again after i made a comment on it, unless it's one of my own. I wish to have a Black robed Grim Reaper micro set in game one day, grant my wish, GGG

Assuming the cost of creating a unique is 1000$, it is around my monthly earnings, and I'm not making the average in my country (far more than average, to be honest). This is kinda too much for me, given I can buy myself a car for triple that amount... (not that I need one, tho) :P
Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance.
Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge.
