Legacy Perks Swindling

Exactly right.

It's a money sink, welcome to MMO's. Would you rather not have them? Look at Diablo 3, the gold economy is F'ed due to no money sinks. People needs a reason to participate in the economy, going broke from legacy perks are just the ticket.

I also think they are great in 1.3, lots of sweet perks available. You do realize how many credits you get from doing all the dailies right?

yes they make you more credits but doing all the dailys, to make 400k perday takes about 3-4 hours, less if you get a group to do the heroics, and rush them.

think i did all mine thins morning in about 3 hours.

so yeah lets work this out, pvpe daily 90min... = x amount of credits.
pve dialys 3-4 hours - 400k

i need to put more time in to get them done, there for i make more money, i dont see a problem with this as im been rewarded for my time playing, if they boosted pvp rewards, seeing that a game can last from anything from 5 minutes to 20 minites, you wouldnt need to do pve dailsy at all, as its far faster and easyer to get the money, so then you will need to make the rewards for the PVE content better, and alot easyer to it balances out. but it will never balance out, as people wil allways QQ like you and then we get a seasaw affect.

because the game needs credit sinks. there answered

Not entirely true. The economy in Diablo 3 is screwed up becasue Blizzard, after 15 years, is still terrible at hack prevention in MMOs. They wouldn't need the money sinks if they didn't have ridiculous holes in their game that allowed for billions in gold to be duped.

I mean, their code is so terrible, you could actually cancel your existing auctions by rolling back the clock of your own PC! seriously. As bad as I thought Bioware was, Blizzard was equally unimpressive with D3. No wonder they gave so many of them away for free (with WoW 12 month sub)

- You can get around the variance in warzone match length by assigning credits per minute insude the warzone. Simple. I had thought of this.

- I also am NOT suggesting they boost warzone pay AND the daily reward. One or the other. I don't care which, although for powergamers who like to PvP on one character for 3-4 hours, they'd probably want the warzone pay itself to be rebalanced. I just don't know many folks who pvp much past finishing their daily. They are more inclined to finish their daily 'March', then go to another 50 alt and do so.

- I have NO problem with you grossing more money then say me because you spend twice as long doing it. My problem all along is the means of making credits/min is completely out of whack. If you make 150k credits in 90 minutes of dailies, I should be able to make around the same in 90 actual minutes of warzones.

I think the game might have too many credit sinks.... but maybe it's because I am mostly a PvP player who never has enough credits for anything.

...and this is exactly why I'm on a posting spree here today. I'm going to throw a lot of this up on a suggestions thread a bit later.

I heard them talking about this on the Gamebreaker.tv podcast about SWTOR. They were talking about how it's always been this way with PvP in an MMO. From credit/gold gains, to gearing up.

They said it was because pvp queue pops happen ALL the time. As compared to a flashpoint/operation queue pop. Since it supposedly takes longer to form for a raid, the xp/credits/gear per minute should be higher than a warzone queue pop that takes 5 seconds to form and start.

Whether or not this is the correct way of doing things. I could see it there being major inflation to the credit market. . .or making the grind for pvp gear way quicker.

Here's the thing.

I'm not comparing flashpoints and raids to warzones. Honestly, both parties in TOR are screwed.

All I want is all of them to be balanced against the solo dailies. If it increases inflation, so be it. Right now, the system in place is categorically unfair. I'm not sure how much inflation would actually happen, as currently folks who don't WANT to do the boring, trained monkey easy dailies are all but forced to do them anyway.

People who raid have to run dailies just to afford repairs. This is just as insane as me spending 90 minutes (actual minutes) inside warzones and coming out with only 50k credits.
