Suggestion: Renting?

Yes, renting.

Renting weapons, armors, helmets, accesories or even take a loan. Renting stuff will allow you to use or get items with lower prices but for a designated time only. Each item has it's own price depending on Quality and Time, you can do this in a new tab in the auction house, if it expires you'll be notified through mail.

You can rent stuff from 1 day to 1 year. I'll be thinking of prices but feel free to suggest other prices if you're not comfortable.

1-Star Gear:
1 Day: 10 crowns
1 Week: 50 crowns
1 Month: 100 crowns
1 Year: 500 crowns
2-Star Gear:
1 Day: 100 crowns
1 Week: 250 crowns
1 Month: 500 crowns
1 Year: 1000 crowns
3-Star Gear:
1 Day: 500 crowns
1 Week: 1200 crowns
1 Month: 3000 crowns
1 Year: 6000 crowns
4-Star Gear:
1 Day: 750 crowns
1 Week: 2500 crowns
1 Month: 5000 crowns
1 Year: 8000 crowns
5-Star Gear:
1 Day: 1000 crowns
1 Week: 3000 crowns
1 Month: 6500 crowns
1 Year: 10000 crowns
Costumes:
1 Day: 1500 crowns
1 Week: 2500 crowns
1 Month: 3500 crowns
1 Year: 6000 crowns
Loans:
As for loans, you will be free to pay it anytime you want but it will enhance if you don't pay it in time, and if that happens 20% of the crowns you earn in runs will be transferred to the loan office.

Tell me what you think! And suggest prices if it's not enough or too much.

I don't like the idea, but even if it get's approved your prices are too unbalanced

I mean a 5* for 10000 a year? Then it's cheaper to rent one till the game dies than actually crafting one.
(for starters it's at least 25000 just for the recipe, then around 70000cr for the fees and materials neccesary)

Renting should be at most for one day only, to try the weapon before making it. And it should cost the same prices you used as a year.
Then it's balanced.

No.

No.

N- No, no. No no. No no no. No with a bottle of no on the side, maybe even a tray of no if the chef is in the mood for no.

We already get our equipment from "paying", mostly using energy. Energy that is mostly CE. CE which was bought by someone with money. Money which funds the game we are talking about right here at this oddly placed coffee shop table outside with bird poop around it.

Say they do this for whatever reason. Nick was shooting up fifteen needles per second and decided the game was going down anyway so it may as well be a blaze of glory. I know he would never be stupid enough to do that, but because invisible space unicorns with six nostrils said so it must happen in this hypothetical situation which is fortunately not real or we would all die painfully and messily.

First of all, renting anything 2* and lower is stupid. The game literally gives everyone most of the 1* items for free and 2* is supposed to be their transition into the equipment crafting system. Giving them all that 1* stuff and the full 2* Cobalt set is already too generous when a big part of the game is learning how to build stuff on your own, but a couple NPC dialogues later all the newbs are still confused and are likely to give up because all the game taught them so far was to do whatever mission and they get free stuff. Little unrelated note, if I had the power I would change the free 1*- stuff newbs get including the weapons with huge UVs so they choose one among the pickaxe, shovel, and heavy sword. They can still get the other weapons like older players did before the mission update but they only get the special UV one based on whichever 0* weapon of those three they chose. This teaches players to make their own decisions. Same goes for the guns. I would say the same for bombs but they only give you two whereas the other two weapon types each give the player three of each. I would also change the pickaxe or shovel to have the spinning charge attack of Calibur for more weapon diversity in early ranks.

Anyway, shovels. No. Get that out of here. Shovel, go to your room and think about what you have done. You dug up my flower garden. Equipment renting. This could work if the prices were scaled higher than the price to craft it yourself including recipe and crafting costs but in pure crowns instead of getting materials, CE, and crowns all at once. People might be buying their equipment but it only lasts for a limited time, whereas the competent player who learned to make their own decisions back when they had to choose which of the three swords and guns they wanted on their first day of playing can quickly figure out getting a permanent item is better than temporary even if it means working harder to get it. It would be a lot easier to fit into the game if equipment was not obtained from crafting/paying and you had to do something like the expansion to get stuff other than Cobalt line, but that would be too much change at once and everything would be everywhere. Do you want to everything everywhere? Are you mad?

Hmm, I'll just take out this massive loan on an alt, buy CE with it, then trade it to my main.

No No No to both ideas. Both will break the economy of the game. why i would craft something if i can rent something for cheap?. no at least, if not its nearly impossible to sell equipment that dont have UV thanks to the supply depot, with this would be impossible to sell even if they come unbound like treasure boxes.

5 stars gear: 1 day = 600k cr <<< seems reasonable to me. not for cheap, not 100k cr not 200k cr not 10k cr. and only short time. after all its a rent right?.

Loan? No, there isnt enought punishment if people fail to pay the loan. yay i can just ask a loan fail the payment but the game automatic will take any crown i get to pay the loan. NO if people fail to pay the loan the must: loses any crown they get to pay the loan AND ALSO the stuff they got with the CR they asked for loan should be removed frm them since they got it with loaned crowns.

Anyway from both ideas -1. this only will make the game easier for everyone and will break the economy anyway.

id say posible weapon test on

id say posible weapon test on guild trainign hall + bein able to test uv on each of them .. that would be usefull + help alot in the developement of the wiki.

everythig goes back to normal when you quit the training hall , wich will make that million spent on the room more worth it ... also the idea i posted before about armored dumies to test weapons dmgs on all kinds of armor

Proceeding the explosion...

"You can rent stuff from 1 day to 1 year. I'll be thinking of prices but feel free to suggest other prices if you're not comfortable."

Are you going to take someone's gear? Also, your prices are unreasonable and not legit

5-Star Gear:
1 Day: 1000 crowns
1 Week: 3000 crowns
1 Month: 6500 crowns
1 Year: 10000 crowns

Oh hell no, that's 100% unbalanced. Everyone would be able to get gear in no time. If renting was approved, you would not pay 10k for a year. I suggest going for 120k+ if it get's approved. So don't bother making them unfair,

Loans:
As for loans, you will be free to pay it anytime you want but it will enhance if you don't pay it in time, and if that happens 20% of the crowns you earn in runs will be transferred to the loan office.

Pay what?

Renting isn't a good idea. -1

your idea will be fail , if

if someone rent it any 5 star thing for a day then he can hide easily and never come back to you to return your weapon , no security for that , but i think "loan" idea is slight better.....
