Meh. Honestly pets should only be gained from boss killing. Normies could just buy a lot of those items for cheap and it's not the same thing as getting the pet yourself. For the Olm pet, your suggestion is outrageous. Even an ironman wouldn't give up all those items when you could probably get the pet by then with those amount of items. I just don't think this is a good suggestion.
You know that pet box is a thing, right?
I'd rather have very few people buy these items "for cheap" (whatever that means), than have no item sinks in game at all. Waiting the next reset btw. Also, nobody really gives a single fuck about how someone else gets a pet.
Congratz, that's the dumbest thing I've heard all day. I'm just gonna let you think about this one ;D
Yes, Just use a pet box for your pets. Done. I could care less about how someone get's a pet but I think you only suggest this as it mainly benefits you.
And that was not the dumbest thing I've ever said. If I only have 1 tbow, why the hell would I want to give it up for a pet that I most likely will get by the time I finish all my raids? Like in general stupid. I know it used to be there for godwars bosses but I think you should just go spend 400 bonds fella.
Ah, so now you're saying that ironmen can buy pet boxes? That's a new one.
Also, how in the fuck does this benefit me in any way? I couldn't give to shits about pets. I want items out of the game so they are worth something, which also doesn't affect me since I dont play normal mode.
You really dont get it, do you? If someone actually is trying to get a pet and they go dry for it over the droprate and now they're stuck with double the set of the items from, for example, raids. What now? Who said I'm forcing you to give up your only raids items for a pet? I'm literally just giving you an option in case you want that pet and you go 500 or w/e raids dry for it and now you have the option to exchange the dupes you've gotten.
For both normal and ironman modes, the main goal is to add an item sink, because most of the ironman dupes will end up in the normal mode eco anyways.
I thought shop got removed cause like only 4 people used it? I mean I guess it might, maybe, help a little bit with an item sink, but I doubt the people who hoard these items care about pets. Especially since the prices on these are kind of steep... seeing how it can take like 500 kc just to get 1 gwd item for some or like a thousand at corp for 1 sigil, of course it's all rng but there's clearly pattern data missing, besides maybe a couple. I understand this is for an item sink, but out of curiosity what items are you sinking for a pet? (unless you're not buying a pet and this is for the people you know will sink their items?)
I mean if we want to accurately target an item sink will need some analytics of all current items in-game, how many of those are items are bought/sold in addition to the frequency these items are traded. The rarity of new items coming into the game from PvMing(drop rates help with this data a bit, but rng so drop rates can be innacurate)/PKing/Boxes/Votes/BM and the frequency of these items obtained over time on that as well. Then would need to account for playerbase shrinking and growing every now and then and would need to reanalyze numbers often based on that too. So maybe a few months/a year of data might help. Can go from there after that. It just kinda seems like alot of info this is based on is assumed off experience and no real numbers. Not to question your knowledge of the game, but if this is soley based on an item sink I think we can do alot better at trying to find a more accurate answer.
Sadly, I'm not sure anyone is willing to get all those numbers and compile them to be analyzed for an item sink. However I am willing to work with anyone that could get me those numbers. I'm all for a boss pet shop, but I feel the prices need to be adjusted from much more complex data for things to be fair. Or maybe I'm being too much of a serious-andy. sorry for the essay. Just ignore me if this is going too deep, i had too much time this morning.
