Adoulin: Scrolls of Instant Protect

The price should be reduced...

I'm guessing the idea was that it's a way for you to cast protect on yourself without having to use a mage subjob, and it does work to that degree. I don't think they should increase the tier, but just reduce the price, so it is more of a "well it's so cheap why not?" opposed to "give us scrolls of instant Cure V while you're at it!".

Instant scrolls should all be 100 (or is it 200?) of whatever currency (like instant-warp) simply for consistency. The Sanction boons are 100 too I think.

insta warp is 10 point depending on where you get it... i think 1k is reasonable because again... i can do a 3 imprint run for almost 3-6k that's three-six scrolls.... worth it if you ask me...

I understand the logic behind capping the effect at Protect III levels (the highest you could get with a /WHM subjob). It's the same reason why the Warp Cudgel and similar items require Level 36 to use.

At the same time, I agree that 1000 bayld is way, way too high for such a limited effect. Either raise the potency and keep the price, or keep the potency and lower the price.

but if people actually participated in rieves and imprints on a consistant basis you would find that you're rolling in bayld... most likely the only people who do find this expensive are investing their bayld into things such as wildskeeper rieves..

$100 for a Milky Way is overpriced, whether or not I have $110 or $100 billion.

apples to oranges your comparing rl currency to an ingame one of which you have an unlimited supply of and equally infinite chance of aquiring it.

Actually it's more like Apples to Apples. You have infinite chance of acquiring real life currency if you work for it. Kind of like how if you do rieves and imprints you're essentially working for Bayld.

I'm implying saying that a scroll of protect is like a milky way.... and aquiring cash in RL is a far more complex process than ingame... comparing the two is kinda...moot

Except it's not. 1,000 Bayld when you're sitting on 11,000 is just as expensive as it would be when you're sitting on 1,000,001,000 Bayld. There's a reason the rich stay rich and it's not because they have more money to piss away.

[Umichi]

but a milky way bar can change its price from 1 dollar to 100 due to inflation.....

if you'd spend like 30-40 minutes a day doing 15 imprints you should have plenty of bayld way more than 1k and if you can only carry 1 protect scroll with you then 10 should do the trick unless your dieing alot... which would imply you should find some support.
