Add the ability to buy stamina with gold.

People would then have the option to convert FSPs to gold to buy stamina.

Currently if people want more stamina they can buy it with FSPs and U can buy FSPs with gold so people can already do this. Currently 100K gold = 1 FSP = 25 stamina.

If there was a function to convert say 75K gold directly into 25 stamina (preferable reserve stamina) then there would be a downward pressure on the FSP price.

If FSPs cost more than 75K sell yours and buy stamina with gold.

If FSPs cost less than 75K, then just convert your FSPs to stamina directly.

This type of dynamic would moderate the price of FSPs.

It would be handy if the Stamina purchased was reserve stamina so U could work the marketplace when U are not actively leveling up...

i think i understand what your saying, instead of going to the market place to buy FSP's, just convert your gold into stamina, good idea, and maybe even make it banked gold

I think 75k is too low actually. I don't know if anyone in the game can ever get 3000+ gp per kill which would completely cause a breakdown of that system where it would always be advantageous to buy the stamina, but regardless, 75k seems like a drop in the bucket to the kind of gold sinks we need.


yup i agree that this is the challenge of balance. The thing is most creatures are 2 hits after level 186 with current setups and sometimes 3 hits... so it takes around 2X more stamina. Plus the density has fallen so there is the increased cost of movement...

also the 3000 gold calculation is a base (not counting doubler etc).... right now i think i get less than 2000 gold using 20 stamina..., so that means about 100 gold per stamina not counting movement.... we are a long way from 3000 gold per 1 stamina creatures....

the proposal has nothing to do with FSPs directly. it is simply a gold sink... U would still need FSPs for character upgrades. the only people who are buying stamina are probably people who already have most of the upgrades...

maybe the price of buying stamina should be according to the level you are.....
i mean if it costs 100k for a level 100 guy to buy 25 stamina then it should be something like 120k for a level 150 player ..... :o

Agree, this will give a chance for fsp to be used in other purpose and not sink them in current stamina, and this is a nice gold sink

Not a bad idea, but I'd make it 100k not 75k. Someone could feasibly sell doubler for 20k only costing 5 stam. Making 100k off the 75k they spend on stam. Or if its possible, HCS could take the average price of all FSP sold on the MP in the last 24 hours, and make that the price for 25 stam. I would also say make it go into current stamina, NOT reserve stamina.

edit: added to 'compiled list of gold sinks'

edit:

Great work hoof :P now how about making some of the other upgrades into gold also like Max stam increase and xp gain per hr.


Nope - we can't change the current upgrades sorry.
