Commendation Idea

[Rhindas]

Well I don't know about more currencies. If they keep adding new ones they're going to have a runaway situation like what WoW had. If you count the UATs, Vintage Gear, Oaknots, Soldiery Tokens and etc as currencies as well, then we're already getting out of hand. Also, after what they did with the prices for Allied Notes for inferior gear they claim is meant for glamour I don't exactly have confidence they'd implement a new currency system that was intended to entice people to do low level content without the prices being exorbitant.

People don't do Low Level because it takes too long to get a reward that you can get in a fraction of the time doing other activities. Low Level Roulette really only benefits people leveling and fresh 50s. If, perhaps, they instead applied the New Player bonus to the Roulette tomestone/GC seals bonus, they'd probably get more bites. Low Level almost invariably gives me Tam-Tara or Toto-rak, and those are beyond boring for me and it's not worth the tomes. I could run the Expert dungeons for the same, or shorter, time, for a better reward from both completion and chest drops.

But back to the original idea, if they were to implement this, what kind of incentives should your commendation idea offer? If it's glamour gear, it's not going to bring much traffic because, again, Allied Notes already tried that. If things like Alexandrite were offered, you may get some people taking up that offer.

Fair enough. How about the alternate idea of getting existing currencies based on recommendations. I believe I had a parenthesis for GC Seals (but obviously it could be adapted to other existing currencies)

That sounds like a neat idea, did you ever suggest it?
