Suggestion: P2W vendors in leveling hotspots?


Recommended Posts

I'm talking at the Vanguard base, have one drinking a coffee or tea near Lady Gray, or place em over by the Research department. As many times as we see new players arrive and just forget to buff up their XP boosters, there's been quite a few that got locked out of a mothership raid because they had to refresh it and couldn't get back into the zone in time. Maybe this will help?

A P2W vendor in RWZ would be nice. Also would love to have one as a placeable NPC in a base.

Being constantly offended doesn't mean you're right, it means you're too narcissistic to tolerate opinions different than your own.

Heya Boyband, should drop by for a visit on Everlasting again. We miss your performances!

 

There's rumors the band may be getting back together. Of course, I started those rumors, so...

The reason why I disagree with this is that these P2W travel powers aren't supposed to be as good as actual travel powers. The developers have even said that they feel this way as well and it was a big part of their motivation for the recent change to travel powers.

 

Part of the "not as good as" is the inconvenience of having to go to Atlas Park, or Mercy Island, or whatever the Praetorian zone is called to renew or recharge said temp power.

Sir, that's not how that meme goes.

@CrystalDragon I can see one in the Vanguard but more for the jetpacks and such (to get to the mothership). Forgetting to boost xp.. that's on the player. 

 

@Oklahoman I cannot support P2W vendors in bases.

Is the vanguard jetpack costume option an actual jetpack anywhere?  Probably slap that in the vanguard merit vendor.

 

And for those that want jetpacks available sooner in RWZ i say join vanguard if you want vanguard to offer you a jetpack.

 

And nobody had to refresh their 2x experience.  They chose to leave the zone at the risk of losing their spot.  Experience booster isnt required to raid the ship.

As far as I recall, back to when the Vanguard costume pieces were first made availabhle, the Vanguard jetpack back item was always entirely cosmetic; there was never an active jetpack power offered by the Vanguard, and I don't believe that there's any visible animation from the 'Vanguard Backpack with Jetpack' costume part when flying.
