2. I see lack on consequence, on one hand all sources of income are broken, on the other hand you make 1.6 million gc's (2 nexus cost) in 13 hours ....
1 nexus = 50 hydro bars = 500kgc. not 800kgc. i talk about a nexus not a pickpoint.
+ did i ever say i got that gc with fighting? no.

(btw, if you need help, i will explain you what the difference between a pickpoint and a nexus is ;))


EDIT: damn korrode was faster.

According to the post topic, we are talking about a nexus plus its removal to get a free pp to place into attributes ......

Wether pp buying is good or bad.. is there any way to change it now ?

I can only see 3 options

1) stop pp buying from this point on ( leaving players who have already bought them with a great advantage which is uncatchable by anyone else)

2) Global reset of all characters ( which is never going to happen $$$$$$ )

3) leave as it is

I don't pk as much as many of the regular pk'rs but in reality, how much of an issue are pp buyers? I doubt there are more than 5-10 people in the game who have gotten more than 10 pp from nexus->removal stones. In a 1vs1 battle I can see 10 extra pp being an issue, but it is fairly easy to take down a top 20 a/d pp buyer with a group of top 100 a/d players.

I take in pride in the way I play the game, and everyone else should do the same for themselves. Try not to worry about some RL $ player, and don't compare your success in EL/pk with what he/she has done. In fact, I bet most of you get more enjoyment out of pwning some of these players in pk than almost anyone else you kill.

very true, i dont have a problem with pps buyer anyway. but the pps buyers will have a HUGE advantage once there are perks for an a/d trainer like there is the summoning perk now.

EDIT: btw, i dont have to care anyway.. i got enough gc to buy those perks :P but imo it's unfair against others and people with more gc than others shouldn't have such an advantage

if someone wants to spend $200 on a PP for EL then personally I think theyre a fucking idiot, if they can kill everyone in PK or not, theyre still stupid in RL.

Thus, anyone doing this continually has effectively no upper OA limit, and has the eventual potential to max our all attributes and take all positive PK perks (and it's not cheap; ~450-500kgc for hydro bars + ~300kgc for nexus stone (in RL$$ @ 4kgc=$1 = ~$195 per pp))



for my first 2 hydro nexus I've spend 13 hours at dragon spawn
so yes, they are very easy to get.
To get your first 2 nexus you spent 13 hours at dragon. This is 1 mill gold coin yes? Sounds to me like not all sources of income have dried up. Sounds like if nexus are that easy to buy then anyone can do it as you said and money is not an issue for anyone.

What we have here is with the right knowledge most players in game can buy as many nexus as they choose. Not that big a step to as many pick points as they choose it seems. I agree with Cruella and it seems to be very contradictory. If you can get 1 million gold coin every 13 hours then money is still something you can get and not all sources have dried up.

If this way no longer works and all ways for fighters to make money are gone now then only fighters with RL $ are ever going to be buying any large amount of pick points yes? Not everyone in game can do it then right?

If this can still be done then most players can do it and there you have your race to everyone being the same and it is only a matter of time before everyone does it.

Which one is it?? If it is the latter then tell everyone how to do it and make Entropy take out the NPC or change it so that everyone can't do it. If everyone starts buying nexus then Entropy will change things yes? He is counting on diversity in game right now by using pick points. New perks being added etc.. Honestly I don't see the problem. Give Entropy exactly what he wants and watch him backpedal. :)

If you are a millionaire and like EL then paying $200 per pick point is like paying $200 for an ounce of caviar. Who cares? The pick points last longer than the caviar. There isn't another game out there that is like EL so if this is the kind of game someone likes and they have enough money that cost is not a factor then they can throw away their money anyway that suits them.

There are people who gamble away millions of dollars a year whether addicted to gambling or they just don't care doesn't matter. It happens. People who spend their money on the stuff they like doing are not stupid they are just wealthy beyond reason. :)

Doesn't matter if you're rich or not, spending $200 for 1 ingame pick-point while there's people starving who you don't give a penny to, is just ridiculous. If you have that type of money to spend - 5 pick points for 1 thousand dollars? and you just blow it all on this game, you're a fucking retard my friend.

And maybe tempest should be spending his money on a better character, the nab.

Deuce if you want to judge anyone then I suggest you start by telling us how much of your money you donate to charity and what you do to help all of those starving people? Do you live in a tent to avoid rent so that you can send money to people who need it?

Where is the outrage against almost every single rich person in the world who throws their money away on parties, car collections, house collections, antique collections, art collections. Hello???? People pick their own hobbies rich or poor. If someone wants to spend 100K on EL instead of 100 million on art then who cares?

Yes we have as a world have the ability to feed, house, and provide health care for everyone. It doesn't happen does it. Speaking of which why the hell are you wasting all of this time on forums and in EL when you could be out helping people? Why haven't you joined the peace corp if the people who need help so much mean so much to you? Get off your high horse until you are giving everything you have to help others.

I dont disagree with the ability to buy a nexus/pickpoint outright. But it was open for abuse when it started, and some people spent a lot of dollars on nexus removal stones for that.

My biggest problem with this is that the dollars where not going to game deverloper/host. Was going to other players with no benifit to radu. Making a dollar player very strong. Hey thats fine to be strong, but I think those dollars should have went to game devs instead of other players. Radu needs to make a living also, would be better the $ went to him then a full time mixer who found a stone in lupins imho

The hydro nex npc does get radu dollars.

Via many ways, but even as simple as pp buyers can kill people easier so they poof more rostos.

You seem to make a very big mistake alot, and that mistake is assuming.

Firstly i'm not deuce, secondly i'm signed up to 3 monthly charity's wich is all i can afford if i want to live, and a tent is not really an option when you live in London, UK.

And yes, i Do think people who spend millions and millions and millions on a wedding, or, somebody like paris hilton who runs around spending daddy's money are complete scum.

By the way, where did you get the idea i was deuce?
