The Space Time Shop is now visible and I have to say, some of these items and pricings make no sense.

http://i.cubeupload.com/rPtfNy.png

First of all, I have no idea if the shop is going to be rotating rewards each season or anything like that, I ASSUME this is how it's going to stay until whatever update comes along but if I'm wrong, by all means let me know.

I guess by now I shouldn't be surprised, but I just don't understand the logic of some of the items in here. A 10 Stamina potion is worth 5000? It's worth the same as a Medium Thread? which is also worth the same as 1 Seal Fragment? Better yet, why is a "10" stamina potion even in here?

I just don't think that's ever been true in the eyes of any player, I have some misgivings about what 7 or so months of useless items amount's up to but I am at least glad to see Medium Threads there, but a level 2 Magatama pack is baffling to me. Space Time requires you to be level 70 yes? And in most cases the people accessing the betting shop are probably going to be getting up there already in terms of power.

So what I wonder is, how does a level 2 Magatama pack seem like something that is remotely appealing to any player using this shop? I would have expected at least a level 4 pack, maybe even also a level 5 pack as well, you could even throw in level 4 or 5 summon rune packs as an option as well.

So what can we do? What should be in this shop? What would make it reasonably appealing? Maybe this is how china had the shop in the beginning, maybe this is how germany had the shop set up, I don't know. What I do know is the selection of stuff for sale comes across as pretty outdated and shows a misunderstanding of what is useful and/or valuable to players.

Personally, I'd start with throwing out that low refine and putting Medium refines in there for 5000 like the threads, I feel like if you're going to have a special shop sell Medium or Advanced threads, you should probably have the equivelent level refines along side them.

I want to talk about this and see what people think, if anything and what that might prefer to see in this betting shop.

It really depends on how many pts you can get per bet token (10 ingot), if'it's 10k or more, even those crappy rewards can be good, at least in terms of cost efficiency.
Whereas if you only get 1 pt, even if they sell lv 7 magatama pack at 500 pts it would be bad.
Kinda need perspective.

That's actually a valid point, still though some of those things I just can't abide by, a level 2 magatama can at least become useful with enough of them, as can stamina no matter how little. But seeing the low refines and low cloth just kills me a little bit.

I'm dumb and overlooked 'Today you can exchange', ops!
I thought you were limited to one purchase over the entire two weeks which made the points required ridiculously low. :shutup:

My thing is, why limit us to 1 per day of some of these items?

I would prefer to have good items but them to be very expensive. I would give 10K chips for 1 mood scroll, instead of that lvl 2 magatama pack give me a lvl 2 summon rune, or 1 cave key for whatever price, instead of those common cloths, low level refine I would prefer even dango(we might be able to exchange them later on into mood scrolls, or so I heard) and there might be more stuff but none come into my mind right now. I don't really care if they are high priced, all I care is that whatever is in there it's actually useful(most of them are, but some are a joke) and I would prefer to exchange how many I want, not 1 a day -_- . But sure, "the gifted horse doesn't get it's teeth searched" (old dumb saying meaning that if it's a gift, then don't complain)

The shop in CN is still like that, its crap, nothing can be done, which means you c*e the chips for betting and get more chips, which will have no use as well.

so better just sell the unused items from now on at least you get coins that you c*e in black market, donate to group or use in 8 inner gates
