Law Upgrade items need a price reduction on larger servers (Long Explanation)

[Devils_Lawyer]

And once again it seems like people are oblivious to the fact that you DO NOT HAVE TO kill S and A ranks to gain centurio seals, theres a daily and a weekly mob thats all yours.

Unfortuanly everyone wants to max out their centurio and upgrades RIGHT NOW which is why people are complaining.

[Nadirah]

You can buy them with law tomes now.

Kind of expensive, but go do that.

The population problem has been a continuous thorn in the development teams back from what I've seen. The housing market suffers the same kind of issue as we got FCs and the ultra rich competing for plots. There's basically nothing left to purchase, and anything new they release will be eaten up fairly quickly. Hunts during peak hours on Balmung are a nightmare since people will pull either early, or someone has been already waiting for ages and then pulls, leaving latecomers out in the rain. Heck, we got LSes that basically hate one another and part of the reason involves the pulling of hunts.

... or increase the health scaling.

This is exactly what I am talking about.......

I cannot believe people are defending the price's of upgrade items with Law tomes. Let me throw you a couple comparison's to show how stupid it is:

1,300 Poetics(at the time) to obtain an i120 weapon. Now, you can choose to upgrade the weapon via FCoB, or the weekly CT/ST/WoD quest, OR.....you can spend 2,000 Poetics for the upgrade item. ....wait...........what?

Real world example! You go to the store to buy a new set of tires for your 30,000 dollar car. The store charges 60,000 dollars for a set of tires. Yep, your being charged double the price just to upgrade your tires, then it cost for the actual car.

.....people are defending this? Really?!

for the housing it's them fault! for player it was easy to create an instanced system, instead to drop the ball hard and make the FC share the plot with the player. that was an error from them side. on high popultion server you have about 4000-5000 character, not all will want a house that true, but do you really think that the small number of plot was enough? especially while sharing with the FC? it was a dumb move!
the hunt is the same trouble, they believe that player will be fair and nice and will share a small number of monster.... i think a loot of the dev team need to get out of japan and see how the world work.

... or increase the health scaling.

you do realize that health scaling will solve nothing? right? no i'm asking because i feel people are more desillusional than the dev team on this point.

let's see why it will never happend, for FATE system the scaling work for the next fate, it adapt the difficulty of the FATE for match the previous one. why? because it's not possible to do it directly. why? because it will put soo much pressure on the server to analyze the number of people involved in the fight and modify the hp.

worst, if you begin a fight a 8 for a rank A (what it's normally the norm for this sort of monster) you reach 10% of hp of the monster when suddenly a large zerg arrive and the hp adapte to that arrival.... how it will work? do the monster will stay at 10% or do it will be back to full life?

that not the only trouble, even if it keep the 10% hp, how the zerg will get enough credit?

the hp scalling is a band aid, barelly a solution! you have no way to make the hunt work perfectly. outside brainwash the whole mankind for change them greed and envy and jealousy. this system is naive and unfair.... it need to be changed drastically, since day 1.... it did never work as intended, since at start (for people that did forget) :

- Rank B: was means for solo player
- Rank A: for team of 4 player
- Rank S: for a team of 16+ player.

wake up it can't work whatever they do!

Im capped on law tomes, have been for ages. have 2 full i180 sets. i suppose i could upgrade my bards gear, but its not even 60 yet.

Why are you complaining? Law is easy to get.

Poor example. Unlike Poetics, Law tomes don't have a weekly cap and they're far more abundant. Your real world example also makes little sense. You need the tires to operate the vehicle. You don't need to upgrade your Law weapon before you're able to use it. A better example would be paying another 60k to upgrade your car to the next best model.

And you don't have to stick with just one currency to upgrade your equipment. Buy whatever item you want with whichever of the two currencies you reach the requisite amount with first, use the other currency on the next token. Rinse and repeat. At least you have the option of an alternate route now versus only being able to obtain the items via hunts before.

At least we don't have to use reagan peppers to upgrade gear.
