So i was thinking about how unafordable TGI were and I found out a solution:
Each time you travel and your level 5 and above you have 1% chance of being attacked by a NPC thief of your lvl. Then if you win the battle you have a 10% chance of getting a TGI. This would make TGI much more affordable since there will be more and the price will go down dramatically.
Tell me what you think about it :P |
thats mean tgi is free ?
even 0.1% chance. |
Yeah that what it mean, because TGI price is 1.2m and getting this much money take about 1 years of non-stop playing, so if we have an alternate way of getting it it would be pretty cool. |
no way

This is unbalanced.
1. The chance to get TGI is too high. Maybe make it 0.1% or if it is at 10%, then you need 100 pieces to assemble a real TGI.
2. There should be an equal downside to this. First the NPC thief would have to be harder than NPC caravans. Second the NPC thief should be able to steal gold from you. Currently players steal something like 40-84 gold from you. Maybe make the NPC thieves steal 400-840 gold from you each time if you lose.
I think this would make things better so it's not giving away TGIs left and right. Players would need to travel a lot, wear full arts (maybe even enchants), and there's a real penalty for losing. Also we won't get a bunch of low level players farming/getting TGIs since the number of traveling and combats would raise their combat levels. But at the same time there would be fewer top level players without TG because all high level players would eventually encounter and beat these NPC thieves. |
lol, run around non stop in full arts for like 3 hours and you have a TGI for the cost of 10k gold
will never happen
even if it was 0,001% for a npc caravan to catch you and 0,0002% to let him drop a TGI |

lets say, 1000 players travel in one hour. 10 of them ambushed by npc thief. then 1 of them get tgi ? so there will be 1 new thief each hour ?????

npc caravan difficulty is variable. so how about npc thief ?
if npc thief is set very hard, then our losing gold will be high too. maybe near tgi price in market.
if npc thief is set easy, then player can get tgi with cheap, and none will buy diamond to get tgi. |
what pantheon said makes a better suggestion.. |
how about u dun get a TGI but a piece of a TGI n say 100 pieces makes a TGI
u will hav around 1% chance to be ambushed by NPC thief.....
n the chance to get a piece of TGI will b 1/1000...
on the downside...
a loss means lost of money plus the thief should b rather good.... |

Think of that as tax for traveling :p
People generally don't travel because they are lazy; not because they are afraid of being ambushed. Anyway all the numbers I used for my ideas are just suggestions. They can be adjusted.
Admins can even adjust the numbers every other month like they do with tg mechanics, ai, and troops. |
think about this: if noone donates, this server ends. entering TG with diamonds helps the server (as any donation). this should be encouraged (as any donation).
you have to work 1 year in-game to amass enough gold to buy a TGI on market? do it . it will save you real money, though you won't be helping the server that much.
you have to work in real life for 1 year to put aside 80euros (or dollars or whatever) to enter TG? do it. AND you will be helping the server.
really, do think about it before coming out with ideas to make donating unnecessary. |

Why do TG invitation prices need to go down again?
Enroll more |
how about every 500 times you work you have a 5 percent chance of getting one |
How about every 1.1m gold you earn, you have a 100% chance of getting one? >_> |
Or just give 3 TGIs for free per day for every player? |

1. This will greatly reduce donating because it will be extremely easy to become a thief.
2. It is very unfair to players who became thieves by spending over 1 million gold. Market prices for TGI will become practically nothing so these players lose all their money.
I do think that admins expect too much enrolling just for entering a guild, but this isn't a good solution. |
or how bout tis...
1000 pieces of TGI can be exchanged gor 1 TGI...
empire sets up a place that sells TGI pieces n each piece costs 1k gold...
so a TGI still costs 1kk gold...
but u hav a 50% chance of getting a piece of TGI if u win an ambush, not by NPC but by other players....
tis way to get a free TGI it will take around winning 1500 ambushes....
but it gives players a chance to partly pay for a TGI while oso being able to work for the other part.... |

Says the one that got it for a quarter of the current price ;)
That said, the TGI system needs to be reworked imo, but this would be much too easy.
I've always wonder why instead of living off donations, why they do not add ads to the enroll page? Is there a reason? |

tgi price very high ----> people complaint.
if need 1000 pieces of tgi to get real tgi ----> would people complaint too ? |

right now my chances of getting a TGI is 0.001%....
if my suggestion is really implemented than my chances of getting TGI would be 0.1%...
so.... why would i complain?? |
