#918928 Make fusion powder buyable with gold

Exactly.

 

You are trying to make perfects easy, thats not the point. Most players shouldn't be able to get even a pure in 100 days.

Exactly how would perfects be easy?  The point I was trying to make is that they would still be very hard to make, even getting 20 glimmerings worth of the same gem isn't enough to get you one perfect in 100 days, not to mention the immense gold costs you would need.  You think grinding over 4k gold and 20 glims of the same type every day is easy?  My main point is this game needs a gold sink of some sort. Fusion powder is kinda half baked as it is right now, either it shouldn't be tradeable or it should be buyable with gold.

you can also buy it with relics from dungeons so you can grind story mode for relics and turn them in to the gem hearth for fp.

I think it's supposed to be a bit somewhat difficult to get so players have to work for it and not expect instant results.

 

  I just saved whatever drops I got from the first time I started leveling and while it may not have been as much as some I had over 600fp.  

 

now when I started playing was pre-steam launch and I didn't rush to level, took my time enjoying the game and leveled as I did quests, dungeons, skills etc.   so I think one issue is that new players want to be 45 in just days so all of a sudden they want all the weapons, gear and gems for their higher level character and expect to have it instantly.

 

I just made my first ever gem, supreme one for one 1h that was crafted and I'm working on making one more for the other 1h but that will probably take some time so I use another weapon with higher roll on it for now to raise my dps.  I just like more matching 1h's so I'm still going to try to make that other gem. lol.   

 

that's a lot of fp and gold I'll need so I don't expect it anytime soon as I don't play for tons of hours straight on and my grinding for this doesn't last hours and hours at time but I'm still going to work on it.

Well i know that you can turn in relics for fp, i do that myself.  But there's two problems with that.  One is that only supporters (which i am) get relics at any decent rate at all.  And two the rate is still pretty slow.  Making fusion powder buyable with gold wouldn't make gems easy as even if you got 20 glims a day, it would still take you over 100 days just to make one perfect.

 

Responding to Frog, making fusion powder just drop more makes relics to fp kinda worthless and gold would still need more uses for it.  And as you said the 50 cap is probably long away from coming so the 5 relics to 5 fp exchange probably isn't coming any time soon.

Right now fusion powder takes too long to farm and gold is not useful after you get your skills/bags or w/e.

Also with a lot of people doing story mode dungeons to level and then using the relics to make armor sets, there isn't as fusion powder around as there should be since story mode hardly ever drops fusion powder.

 

Making fusion powder cost something like 7 or 8 gold would solve both these problems and give players options. 

This mechanic already exists in the game in the form of the component shopkeeper who sells wool, coal, etc. for gold, so why not not apply this to fusion powder too?

 

Instead of just grinding/botting certain areas or paying a lot of ep for fusion powder, players could do To3 or TR and get gold.  Or they could do RG/BT story for remnants/fair gems or dungeon for remnants/glims/defs.  Or get valor for glims.

 

At something like 7 or 8 gold cost fusion powder drops would still mean something and players would still have work for the fusion powder to make gems and work for the gems themselves.  And they could still farm for fusion powder if they want to.  It would also make supporter and loot boosters better and since every player can make gold, it makes it easier for players to get endgame gear.
