    Okay seriously though, a 30% experience boost isn't pay to win when you already got access to so many bonuses. Rested+Circlet+Ring+Armory=A lot.

    What's next, two person mounts being pay to win?

    You clearly don't understand what Pay to Win means if you think referring to items that were available at no extra cost somehow makes the new dress on the mogstation less of an issue... Something being Pay to Win usually requires that you, you know, pay for it.

    FYI a lot of cash shops that eventually fell into the P2W black hole started with offering stuff like this. People defended it, saying it wasn't P2W enough to be a problem, so the devs got bold and added more and more invasive stuff. That will happen here as well unless people tell them NOT to go any further. By defending this dress you are asking the devs to push their luck with the cash shop.

    Pretty sure you're the one who doesn't know what pay to win means. There is an item, given for free, that provides the same exp buff as an item you can pay for. If you buy the dress specifically for the exp buff (which requires all three pieces to be worn, btw, and provides worse stats than the ring you get from Hall of the Novice) then you're not paying to win. You're paying to be a dumbass.
