Super Kupowers

[Godofgods]

I like the idea of more crystals. But letting them drop in beastmen zones, and only when this kupo power is active, wont impact crystal availability at all. (and as for farming them in sky, that doesn't help new or low lvl players much) (altering it to current crystal drops are tripled, now that would be nice!)

Double food duration is nice to. But along the same lines, i don't think it will be all that effective. If we still had a majority Man pt system, then yes this would be great. But most leveling is either solo low lvl (where food not really needed), GoV parties with 18 ppl in which case food really isn't needed, or abyssea for mid-high lvl players where kupo powers don't effect players. Now their are some areas this would be nice. But as a whole, its effect would be quite limited.

Double conquest points and town item supply, i can argue against them. Even if limited, they would be helpful.

I can clearly see how buying stacks half as often would affect sales, but you gotta remember that they won't buy stacks half as often every week. With 12 kupowers, 3 active at the same time, this particular food duration will over time only be active roughly 25% of the time. And the duration still isn't further increased in non-conquest areas, where a lot of the playing is taking place. Then you also gotta remember that if you for some reason die within an hour, you lose the food effect prematurely too.

Which was basically the point I was implying. Basically, the only things double food duration would greatly influence are voidwatch, KS99/ground Kings (if doing more than 1), and skilling up. Sky, Sea, Limbus, Dynamis, all of ToAU (Einherjar, Salvage, Assault, Nyzul, Neo-Nyzul), all of WotG (Walk of Echoes, MMM, the upcoming Meeble Burrows (which takes place in one of the WotG dungeons, like MMM)), Abyssea, Legion, and Provenance are all excluded from super kupowers. People use food for a lot more than just voidwatch, so while it might slow down sales a bit, it won't be huge. Especially since most of the buyers aren't intending to use the entire stack of food in a single sitting every single time. Some will, sure, but most people don't have the patience to burn the same thing for 6 hours. And as mentioned, that also assumes they don't die, which negates the increased duration regardless.

Change #3 to be increased Geode/avatarite drops, and we'll talk.

That.. is actually a pretty sweet option. It would totally rock the vote, lol.

Change #3 to be increased Geode/avatarite drops, and we'll talk.

I would like add add this as a write in vote. Please everyone else add it in as a write in vote as well.

Good evening!

Thank you for placing your votes on the new Super Kupowers!
Your first set of votes were tallied up last Monday morning, so let's take a look at what we have here:

No.	Super Kupower	Votes
1	Double duration of food effects	59
2	Double the amount of conquest points received	63
3	Crystals will be dropped in beastmen controlled areas	7
4	Shops that sell San d’Oria/Bastok/Windurst specific items will sell them full-time	55

Seems like #3 was not too popular. /comfort crystals
Option #2 was the most popular but the number of votes compared to the other two candidates was not a huge difference.

We will continue to survey your votes throughout the week and all region's feedback will weigh in on our moogles' final kupo'rmation. Ahem... confirmation.

We continue to look forward to your feedback!

#1, #2 in that order.

[Byrth]

2, 1, and 4 in that order. I don't know why you're still collecting data for this. If you were looking for 3 results than the community's preference is obvious.

The fact that they're still looking for votes implies that one of the other regions is voting for 3 over the other too, and god help us if it's the JPs. Someone quickly, Rosetta Stone Japanese, German, and French, and make sure they're not doing something weird.

edit:
Looks like the JPs seem to be agreeing with us, and the Germans only got one response. The French don't seem to have even gotten a thread about it.

That said, it was rather amusing to skim through the JP thread and, while not being able to read it, still make out a very obvious pattern of 1s, 2s, and 4s

#4 is winning with JP. 1+2 are tied.

All is well in the world, then.
