Tackling RWT, but an extreme method


#97

No. You didn’t. Your new idea revolves around the hope that making Legacy items obtainable via Fame will fight RWT. But it costs 10K Fame? A cheater won’t think, “10K Fame sounds reasonable for a few Legacy items. Let’s play legitimately!” They’ll think, “Ehhh…10K? I’d rather just spend a few bucks.”

My point: Making Legacy STs obtainable won’t stop people from buying from RWT sites. Oh? They can be bought for Fame? They don’t give a shit. They’d rather just buy them off some shady place, much like they do for pots. Oh? You can get pots from dungeons? Who cares? You can just buy them with money.

Tell me, what is the difference?

I have few clues on what you’re trying to say here, but I think what you mean is, “They’ll start duping UTs/STs in the future.” If that’s the case, there’s a not-so-secret method called “duping SB items and selling accounts.” UT/ST duping isn’t really a new subject.

This ties back to what I said previously. Trying to give more incentive to grind for the items without cheating? That’s great! But your new idea doesn’t do that.

I’m talking about everything, whether they’re stat potions, gear, whatever.

You keep saying this, but even if you perceive this whole thing as giving up, the devs still shouldn’t act rashly and follow through concepts that are arguably flawed to the core. “Basically you are saying?” I’m not saying anything like so. If there’s an idea that’s both fair to the players and game while chipping away at RWT, I’m all for it. Just because I disagree with specifically this idea and think it’s rather shortsighted, that doesn’t mean I believe in giving up and letting the game become some breeding ground for illegal business. I’m saying that so far, there doesn’t seem to be a set solution, and if there does happen to be one that isn’t overly complicated, the devs would have found it by now.

And not contradicting your own words might be an okay start to getting us to believe that this is a good idea.

I think it would be kinda funny to replace all Deca rings with UBHP rings. (this thread is about extreme methods, after all)


#99

This is off-topic, but I love your avatar picture. 10/10


#100

I would be for that, just to get legacy sentient staves more reliably.

Its okay, as long as I get to produce legacies out of thin air.


However, I dont think this idea will solve much of the problem, as already stated by Gamma.

From my point of view, those who buy from RWT do not see they’re still making an effort by buying with money, because money comes from effort (usually, working). I do have to say that I dont know if the prices are high or low, so like if its 2 :dollar: for a single maxing, I would agree with buyers ngl.

What I dont agree with is skipping an entire phase of gameplay. Not worth my money.


#101

Well, think of the time it takes to max. At least a few hours, usually more than a few for me. Then think of the money it costs to rwt, and compare the ratio of time to money. It just doesn’t really compare. That’s why rwt sites still exist


#102

For me as well.

No matter how hard I’d think I wouldn’t come up with the price range. I’ve only seen what kind of services they offered.


#103

I don’t know the price range either, I’m assuming it’s less than 100$ though because I remember an old post on a class tier list thread saying that trickster was the worst because it costed $45 to 8/8 on or something.


#104

Don’t you dare to say its name dude…


#106

Sorry! didnt know that was something to look out for that was just what the post i was referring to said!


#107

No worries! Just something to look out for in the future.


#108

45 DOLLAHZ?!?!? US or euro or CD?


#109

idk thats just what post said i dont have clue if its even right, was from awhile go


#110

i saw an ad saying it was like… 20$ to max any class like 2 weeks ago. also, even if we soulbound all items, people will pay dupers to go onto their account and dupe their items for the. RWT just cant be beat ig.


#111

If we can’t beat it, we have to mitigate the damage they can inflict by the very least.


#112

true.


#113

I think we should tackle bots 1st even though it is difficult by itself.


#114

yea, without bots, i think there would be a slight decrease in p2w, due to no one new being targeted.


#115

Genocide RWT.


#116

I wish but would be impossible.


#117

i mean you could just close alll the known rwt sites. it would set them back a bit, then ban all the fresh accounts with 0000 gear and only items on them (the weird “unnamed” ones anyway), and boost droprates for tradeable items to encourage actually playing the game.
