Halloween luxury items need adjusted!

#1
I bought the 300k ruby Halloween and the broom of doom, they cost 100 dollars in real life money! This is at the new lower pricing too. I have 2 huge issues with them that if everyone knew they wouldn't buy them. First the amulet has the same stats as the 150k regular gold amulet, but it doesn't recharge health and energy while fighting! Second, the broom of Doom while cool to fly on isn't worth anything more than that. You cant use your fighting skills with it! I figured it would be a great weapon for my Mage, but you can't cast any of your spells while holding it! You have to unequip it, and equip the wand.

I would like a refund and just buy a 50k broom, or give us another slot for jewelry, and travel (horse, broom) eventually.

I have been seeing a lot of dissatisfaction with luxury shop purchases, not just the Halloween stuff but with a lot of the shops gear.

Ill give my personal view since I don’t want to try to speak for others, although I here the complaints.

It is not so much that the gear is bad, but we take a long time to save and build up our gold or we drop $50-$100 real would money for that awesome gota have item and when we get it its kind of anticlimactic. The item that you just spent several hours, days or even weeks of time building for is just ok not great, epic or awesome.

I saved gold for a long time after blowing my wad on ancient armor and weapons. I wanted lux shop items and built up my pile of gold to get them. A friend who I was competing with in the gold rush, got impatient and spent $$$ to get the items we both were working t words. I had the chance to tryout his fast gloves, horn helm and other stuff. Well I’m glad I did. The gloves were only faster in auto attack. If I manual attack I’m still faster than the gloves. They didn't improve my skill speed and since I don't afk they are worthless to me. While the helm did give me, a damage boost the low armor rating and decreased defense got me beat up faster than with my old helm. The damage increase did not equal the damage I took from lack of armor and defense. No gloves or helm for me. I still wear old quest items because they are better than the new stuff.

I have a pair of gloves from the titan but I do not use because lockjaws do more dmg and are better armor. Does this seem off to anyone? Killing lockjaw gets u better gloves than killing the titan.

Finally I spent my gold on the ruby skull of fire necklace. $150K does 20 points fire damage. Great!
I walk outside and let the wolves come after me. The 150K necklace is doing 8-11 points dmg to Wolves! Waaaa come on so the chill is just gona laugh at my necklace and take no dmg or maybe it will heal him. That’s the way I feel.

Now I know some of the items people are very happy with. The rejuvenation necklace seems popular and worth wile. Therefore, if I buy a 150K item I would like it to be equal to the other 150K item same for a 300K item.

I think the whole item balance thing should be looked into.
As well as price to value.

The lux shop is for ppl who reached everything else in the game and need sth to spend there money on. The items sre not super epic they are just little better then the rest. If the lux shop items would be very powerfull all lvl 20 lvl can buy platin an get better then lvl 50 or 60 maybe. They shouldnt get to strong!

Hey there

On the next patch we are going to label all the items more clearly to show the effects in numeric terms.

Also we're looking to label the skills with the more details of mana costs, damage etc.

Hopefully over time we can keep improving this until everything becomes much more clear.

In the mean time if you think any particular item needs adjusting please feel free to post your ideas, all the posts get read.

Thanks!

Great stuff, that will help tremendously.

My personal take on the broom is that it is GREAT - and I'm more then happy to buy it and support the developers. However, you really should make the attack bonuses into pure defense bonuses. Either that, or make its ability match an equivalent ability (staff/totem for druid, sword/mace/etc. for warrior, and so on..) so that it could actually deal the damage. The damages are kind of unintentionally misleading, since you always get misses/parry against opponents near your level.

Hi joshturner, it's already been refunded.

Deucaleon please mail [email protected] with your character and world and the details.

Thanks!

Admin... Three weeks ago I emailed support because I bought potions and they didn't show up in my inventory, a few days ago when somebody posted about elixirs not working I emailed support again, I have yet to see any response. I know they are very busy getting out Halloween stuff and putting out fires...(or is that your job?) anyway I'm not holding my breath. Sorry

Still a great game! Monthly subscription would be better.

Ok I've bought 3 things from the Luxary shop so far. The Golden Chief Helmet which I think is fine, no need to change it. The Golden Rejuvination Amulet that's 150k which I think is fair too. Only thing is the Golden gloves of speed... So I've been using Corbins Bracers for ever. I used it over Ancient, Tanned Darkrun and even Emboosed plate gloves that any class could wear. It was a easy quest and you got a great pair of gloves so Im happy with it. These Golden gloves have the same armor and weight as them though... I have 67 of Lockjaws keys which I sell for 50 each and have the same armor as 100k gloves. Personally I find that a tad bit bad considering they cost 100k? Same for the boots as well. It's made a way humans can't remember or something and for a Rogue using a Ancient Langsax with 2k speed it has a very little effect. I'm not sure what it is now but maybe should be decreased by 10% of the speed of the weapon? Silver ones do 5%. So a 5000 speed weapon with Silver gloves would do 4750 Gold would do 4500 That's a good increase for 100k. For Rogues using a 2000 dagger it would 1900 for silver and 1800 for gold. Also does being attacked add time to an attack because I find when I block it takes longer to attack afterwards. I'd just like a obvious way to see it is improved. Currently the only way I make it faster is spamming the auto attack which I can do a attack before the last damage number disappears. Then again so does my friend who uses Silver ones... So I'd personally like that fixed lol.
