Any limited edition item, really.

Would be nice to have all the items that have been exclusive (that are game changing, at least) be put into depot.

Also, if that drakon gun puppy or some other construct pet is made, gimmegimme. I'll beta test the circuits off that thing until the end of time if that's what it takes.
I love constructs don't judge

Recent event items: Sarongs or Trunks, Overcharged Mixmaster, Gun Puppy Reskin, Aero Fin, Rebreather

But OOO's surprised us in before... cross your fingers :)

SCP-96

No offense to you whatsoever, Revolutional. I understand you're a merchant and you try to gain profit by any means possible, but the reason why people want it is because we know OOO will release it at a very considerate price. Probably even lowering it's value a smidgen if people buy it from somewhere else. You yourself probably realize this, as do other merchs.

I can understand item rarity, but there's definitely a fine line between being rare and just flat out hustling someone. I think 25-40k E is a fine margin for something such as dreadful aura that has an extremely low chance to appear, without making it too common. Everyone wins :x

Wed, 09/10/2014 - 18:03

#28

Revolutional

Of course I would realise

Of course I would realise that. :p Take the Iron Dragon Wings for example. Prices for those are just crazy imo, 75k CE. You don't see just anyone who'd buy that. xD Then again, it's just grey-ish black Dragon Wings, which isn't as attractive as the Aura.

As much as I don't like the Aura to be re-released ,it's inevitable, and I know it. What I'm just hoping for, is that the prices wouldn't be as low as the Green Leafy for example, 7k CE. But nowadays, with the heavy P2P players around (That I know anyway), I'm pretty sure 25-40k CE is nothing to them.

Also, "I understand you're a merchant and you try to gain profit by any means possible", is a little offending to me, although I know you didn't plan it intentionally. I don't resort to underhand means to merch, and many know that. Dw, I won't take it to heart. =p

A Hunter Brigandine.

No really, the top-tier items from past promos usually show up eventually on the featured auctions or even in flash sales -- the more common ones never do. And it's not like it's easy to find a hunter brig anywhere else, I should know, I have wanted one for a long time (although by now I have almost lost interest).

Dracora-Speaking

I'd like to see...

By order of personal preference greatest to least: Gun Puppy, Prismatic Flower, Wings of Winter/Summer, combat gear (mixmaster, etc.) that come out of boxes and are otherwise no available elsewhere, Gen1 wings in all colors (so the wiki can be updated with tooltip pics - yes, this is my reason haha), and Node Field/Blossom/Dreadful/Soaked Aura (soaked not for the looks, but the noise it makes is cute).

IMO, they should have a sale about 6 months after each new box (including silver, titanium, etc.) that has all the possible contents of JUST that box rotating every 2 hours, for about 3 days. That way, you can be like "oh okay, these next few days are a Titanium rotation, I don't really care for anything in that box, so I'm not gonna bother checking in." Iron lockboxes would happen...let's say...the day before and after such a feature, every third month.

Personally? I wouldn't even have it rotate. I'd just have all the stuff on the SD at the same time for a Day or so (24 hours, perhaps 48 hours) 6 months after release, and every 6 months after to-the-day, and that would be that. But something about looking forward to the suspense...rotation, fine, fine! Yes, there would be a lot of in-game merching econ issues with this, but I'm more concerned with making players pretty regarding these mostly aesthetic promos/sales, not making wallets fat. Not a lot of other games do aesthetics like this, and I think SK could make an example of itself. Let's help it not seem to be so RNG dependent.

Stuff like that would make a lot of players happy, I think. This way, you can pay into RNG to make you mad and/or look good early, or wait half a year and directly pay (probably) less for the same result, depending on the item of course. But we know people can barely wait a day for things, so the process would still be profitable for OOO I think. It would also take out a lot of stressful guesswork, not all, but a lot. A lot less "darn it I missed my favorite thing ever!"

Wiki Pictures

@Dracora
YES! We need updated images for Cat Tails too--those are ALL original. >.<

I disagree on your proposals--I think this 4-hour week-long flash sale is a fantastic compromise. I mean, unless I sleep for 12 hours I'll only miss one item, and I can check Skeptic's fine forum thread for updates while I'm out with friends and Steam-chat ask people to buy something for me.
Aside from one or two literally impossible-to-find old accessories I don't mind the randomness and having to hunt. RNG is a part of every game, and keeping rare things rare isn't a bad idea from an in-game economic standpoint. (Note: there is a difference between "rare" and "impossible". Impossible = bad, rare = good.)

My counterproposal: the first and third friday of every month the SD sells one box at random. We've got 41 prize/lock boxes in SK history and are adding more at around 3 a month. Selling two old ones each month for 24 hours would give players access to older items while keeping rare items rare, thus preserving the player economy and earning money for OOO.
